Tote Bag Travel in Black, White and Red

As you might already know, I'll be in Italy when this post goes "live"! But I've got 2 weeks of lovely goodies lined up for you, all of them starting with a pair of scarves. From there, our protagonist is going to spend one quick (but lovely!) night somewhere...

Starting NOW!

Living Beyond Breast Cancer scarf – White House Black Market; shawl – Nordstrom
This is our color scheme, although careful scrutiny of the left scarf suggests that pink might have also been a possibility here:

Barely Enough Time...

Okay, she checks her watch...

Living Beyond Breast Cancer scarf – White House Black Market; earrings – Lagos; dress – Lands’ End; cardigan – Marks & Spencer; watch – Michael Kors; pumps – Patricia Green; tote – Tumi
As soon as she's off the train and in the cab,
(1) change earrings,
(2) add bracelet,
(3) change shoes,
(4) stuff cardigan in bag and grab wrap, and
(5) make sure she has what she needs in her gorgeous evening bag...

Worst case - the way she's dressed coming off the train is still dressier, and nicer, than a lot of the other attendees at this little shindig...

Earrings – Fallon; bracelet – Henri Bendel; turtleneck – L.L.Bean; shawl – Nordstrom; pants – L.L.Bean; pumps – Nina; pajamas – DKNY; bag – Loeffler Randall; loafers – Louise et Cie
As soon as she's out of the cab, she's going to hand HIM the tote bag, and let him worry about it the rest of the evening! After all, he's the one who gave her TWO HOURS NOTICE to prepare for the fund-raising dinner...

This hotel better be pretty nice...

love,
Janice


p.s. Generally speaking, I'm pretty suspicious of.... well, most things, frankly! I'm particularly leery of anything that purports of being a charity fund-raiser; I want to see numbers and facts. But this scarf is beautiful, all on its own, and the donation is nearly 50% of the retail price, which is pretty impressive...
