Playing Dress Up

full spread can be seen in Tops in Lex

Switching her up a little bit today, gang---I was quite excited when I was asked to be in the Holiday Issue of Tops in Lex, a favorite Lexingtonian publication of mine & many!  Getting dolled up and styled by someone other than myself surely did not disappoint. Nor did having my makeup & hair touched up with every other step--what I would do to have my very own personal Ryan & Jess!  Adding to the experience was the lovely Miss Kentucky, Jessica Casebolt,  whose legs are those of a damn gazelles, and Mrs. Elizabeth Burgess.  Seriously, I would totally commit a crime for her skin--it's insane!  Top it off with a fabulous photographer, a top notch (and hilarious) Glam Squad, and fun threads from local Lexington boutiques and there was no way it could be anything less than stellar.  So a sincere Thank You to Tops for a fantastic experience. 

As a side note, the day left me wanting to up my non existent makeup routine.  When I do my eye makeup, all I see is a job my 6 year old could have done better or Bozo--basically, it ain't pretty! Any online tutorial suggestions/bloggers y'all know, please pass them my way!  It also left me desperately craving the J.Brand leather skinnies in the first shot--Good Lord those things are insane!  The CC Skye stackers (3rd shot) were just as gorgeous as ever, too (both available at Voce).  As for the white fur leg warmers that initially took me a wee bit by surprise, they definitely left me wanting a girl's trip to Aspen!  Y'all make it a good one...back to the routine tomorrow with an outfit post.
