Today I felt like dressing up a bit. I call this look 'Urban Gypsy'...
I love government Holidays that fall on the weekdays! :) It leaves you wide open to the parallel universe you're not apart of when you're working and in your "normal" routine. You've got morning news and television shows, not to mention those oh-so-random but awesome Bravo tv marathons of shows like 'Real Housewives' or 'Top Chef' to chip away at the time. I managed to get about 85% of the errands and things I wanted to get done, so I was feeling pretty accomplished. This evening I sort of took it easy. I met my good friend, Kara, for some Indian food in the East Village and as I was leaving the restaurant I saw that it had begun to snow...not quite sure how I feel about that. I blame the groundhog...
Hope everyone had a great President's Day!!!

- Purple Circle Scarf (Target...$3.49 or something redic like that! It was on super sale...I wish I'd snagged another in black. Who doesn't love a great circle scarf?)
- Silver Medallion Necklace (Gem Story...$2.99...it's sruprisingly unique and antique despite it's low price).
