Outfit Of The Yesterday: The Rebecca Minkoff Kiefer Trench + LOFT Olive Slingback Mid-Heels

♫:  Lights Out – Santigold

I apologize for the lack of personal updates on this blog over the past several weeks. Between dealing with real life issues, craziness, changes, and the Lindsay Lohan of all head colds (arrrggfhhhh it just won’t quit!), I haven’t been able to find a whole lot of time or energy to post here. But I am back! And hopefully with some regularity, so let’s get to it.

I grabbed a pair of LOFT’s Color Pop Skinny Jeans and a pair of LOFT’s Olive Slingback Mid-heels during one of their recent 50% off promotions. I am pretty happy with both purchases–the jeans run a little on the small size (but I am sure that they will stretch with wear) and the petite inseam is a good length for my short, 29″ long legs. The slingbacks fit true to size and are comfortable with a 3-inch heel. The color is more of a “neon lemon yellow” than a “neon lime”, and so I think that they are just the right amount of bright without being overly jarring or offensive. It was another dark and cloudy day when I took the pictures below, but I did try to color correct them as close as possible.

Husband would also like for everyone to know that it took him about 20 minutes of serious necklace untangling later that evening to get the layer of necklaces off from around my neck. Whoops! But I can’t promise that I won’t ever do it again (sorry hon, sorry!) (not sorry):
