'A Long Farewell To [This Year's] Greatness'

Some of my favorite posts from 2011! Did your favorite make the cut?

Middle Shot: If He Be Married, My Grave is Like To Be My Wedding Bed

Clockwise from top:

Whose Manners [I] Limp After in Base Imitation
Where Thou Art Not, Desolation
That Which We Call A Rose
All the [Coldness] The Sun Sucks Up
Imitate The Action Of The Tiger
That Looks on Tempests and Is Never Shaken
Beware the Ides of March
The Lady Doth Protest Too Much
If [Clothes] Be The Food of Love, [Shop] On
Take A [Fashion] Bath Once Or Twice A Week...It Is To The Soul What The Water-Bath Is To The Body
Is This [The Necklace] Which I See Before Me?

'One [Cardigan] Is Gold, Another Is Silver'

Can't believe I contemplated returning this cardigan after walking for miles (going to three H&M stores), and rudely reaching over the woman who was about to reach for the last one when I finally did find it. After deciding to keep it on principal, I've now fallen madly in love with its molten, metallic look! And it's warm!

Incidentally, H&M currently has the same sweater in gold.

Oh, and this is what I wore to my office holiday party. Of course you who follow my twitter page know this ;)

'The Green-Eyed Monster'

As I previously mentioned in my Fall/Winter '11/'12 Look List (here), I'm into everything monotone at the moment! As soon as I brought this Anthropologie blouse home (after it FINALLY went on sale..thought I would have to cave and pay full price for it), my eye went right straight to this JCrew pencil skirt (still hanging outside of my closet for me to more easily ogle at) and I knew they'd be lovers!

Threw on my Jeffrey Campbell Grayson's (still available here and in this color here) for some added fun, (incidentally, I think this is the first time these babies have been blogged in action!) and also this adorable vintage turn-lock bag I won from Jody-Ann of Confessions of a Purse-a-holic a while back.

'And Then The [Happy Girl] with [Her] Satchel...'

Apart from this fabulous bag shedding all over the place since the leather is crackled (I really hope it stops soon), it really is a fun, bright satchel. LOVE the orange juice color! Sure to penetrate Winter's grayest day!

Paired it with my engineer striped Lita's, denim shorts and tights!
