It’s been months since Smallville wrapped up, but that didn’t stop me from channeling a Superman vibe for today’s outfit.  I was ready to head out the door with my regular ol’ red patent clutch when I spotted this red bandana and inspiration struck.  Two minutes later, after some clever folding and a strategically placed knot*, and I had a cute new clutch ready to go.  I can’t wait to try this with some of my other scarves!

Can I just say that I love, love, love the vintage feel of this outfit?  Something about it made me stand a little taller (something other than the 4 inch heels!) and walk a little straighter.  Outfits like these are what I look forward to the most each fall…

Unfortunately, the weather has crept up to over 80 degrees the past few days.  And I’m wearing a sundress and sandals as I type this post. Ha!

My company was a finalist for a small business award (WE WON!), and I wanted something festive to wear to the awards ceremony.  I had spotted this festive gold frock at J. Crew and knew it would fit the bill perfectly.  A few more gold touches like this little clutch and a floral brooch at my waist helped pull the look together.  I definitely felt like the belle of the ball that evening!
