Not gonna lie… it took every fiber in my being not to call this post “Fifty Shades of Grey”.  But honestly, I figured you all deserved something better than that.  So I resisted, and now I’m really craving chicken piccata for some reason.

In outfit-related news: I can’t tell you how glamorous I felt in this getup.  Believe it or not, I came this close to tossing this cape not too long ago because I hardly ever wore it. That was until I spotted these elbow-length gloves on sale for $5 at Uniqlo!  They add exactly the right touch of drama.  And since then, this topper has become my new favorite thing.

It seemed like I was on a roll with polka dots this week, so I decided to just run with it.  I’ve had this H&M for a few years now, and it’s still just as versatile as ever.  I love that it’s long enough to wear as a tunic and thin enough to layer under a sweater or dress.  I get bored easily, so these days I’m all about getting the maximum mileage out of my wardrobe with pieces that can be worn multiple ways as opposed to just buying a bunch of new stuff.

This week is barely even half over, and I’m already tired.  So let’s keep things brief, shall we?  This is probably my 5th pair of legging pants from Uniqlo, and I have to say that I’m officially hooked!  Seriously, these things are amazing, and they’re constantly coming out with new patterns.
