OOD 3.31.09 (a little giraffe)


Today's outfit is basically inspired by the fact that it was so cold yesterday... the kind of cold that is just warm enough to keep the rain from turning into snow... and I just couldn't shake the chill in my sweet little J Crew tissue cardigan and tank.  

So today I am going for warmth in a turtleneck, merino cardi and Uggs.  I thought about the Brewster boots or some cute ballet flats, but no... it's an Ugg day.  To add a teensy dash of style I am wrapping my new chocolate brown giraffe-print lightweight scarf around my neck.  I do love animal prints... a little python, leopard, zebra... but in small doses like a silk cami under a cardigan or a pair of ballet flats... so this little scarf is perfect for me, and I believe it is my first giraffe! (Pink giraffe LP shifts are on their way to my girls as we speak, though!)

The scarf  shown in the polyvore below is the same style & colorway, but it's actually a floral print... I wasn't able to find the giraffe online - I just purchased it yesterday, so maybe it is brand new.   IRL pic of the actual scarf follows below!

    I am still kicking myself for not getting the scarf. I was on Project Refocus at that moment. Oh well. NY & Co may have some giraffe prints right now incl a scarf so I'm going to look in there soon. Looks great w/the coral. Nice job.

    Gigi - I JUST bought this - there were tons of them and lots of colors! And I know they weren't at my store a week ago! Maybe your store has them.
    BLC - thank you so much for the sweet compliment!
