The Godmother

20140717-232215.jpg

I have never seen “The Godfather.” It just does not seem like my kind of movie. Unless he grants wishes and turns pumpkins into carriages and fixes dresses into ball gowns, then count me in. However, I remember something about a horse head.

And I happen to have a horse head necklace that would have made any mobster proud.

This necklace is giant. It is sparkly. It is fun.

I love it.

I paired it with my Free People Embroidered Gauze Dress (sold out, slightly similar dress here), as only us Godmothers know how to do.

I previously wore this dress with some grey jeans for an informal date night here.

Here I am pondering where to bury my next crime. A girl’s gotta keep herself in shiny necklaces. This horse head doesn’t feed himself.

This looks like the perfect place. Don’t ya think?

Or perhaps here.

What about this place?

Wait! What exactly are we talking about? What crimes? What are we burying?

The price tag for this dress?

No. I bought it for less than $50.

Then what?

Maybe my crimes against fashion?

I’ll never tell.

I keep it locked up tight.

Let’s just say, “I made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.”

“Bibbidy Bobbidy Boo!”

  1. Love the whole outfit! That necklace is so awesome!!! Thanks for the tip on that maxi dress for maternity – I will have to check it out! I have to admit, I did admire it when I saw it in the new arrivals.

    • Thank you Heather! I am hoping that dress gets cut again one day. I like it, but definitely would need another cut. But it is so comfy.

      Have a great Tuesday! : )

    • Thank you Liana! I cannot remember if it was $39.95, $44.95, or $49.95. But either way it is less, right? ; ). I appreciate the compliment. Thank you.

      Have a lovely week!

    • Thank you Cynthia. I have a love/hate relationship with the desert. I have great memories of it as a child, but at the same time the great expanse scares me. I am glad to be not the only one who has not seen that movie. My husband keeps trying to get me to watch it, but I usually win with Harry Potter. : )

      Have great dreams tonight!

    • Thank you Deniz! I appreciate that. I was really happy to find it one the sale rack. No worries on being busy. I am glad for you! I hope you had a tons of fun! : )

      Have a great week!

  2. That dress is just perfect on you! I love it. I am amazed how much use you get our of your gladiator sandals. They work with SO much. I also have never seen the Godfather…I just know the quotes from You’ve Got Mail. 🙂 Does that count?!

    • Thank you Alicia. I just wore those sandals again today. Unfortunately it was an accident. I just threw them on. I just looked at pictures of that outfit today and I am really unsure about them. Oh well, it is what it is. : ). I am on the fence about “You Got Mail.” I love independent bookstores so I never could see Tom Hanks character as anything but a villain. But I do love “Sleepless in Seattle”! : )

      Sweet dreams!

      Jenni

    • Thank you so much Sally! : ). That is my dad’s property. It used to be a cattle ranch decades and decades ago. I love those old buildings!

      Thank you again! Have a marvelous week!

  3. OHHHHHH, LOVE LOVE LOVE that dress! I love black embroidery on white. And white embroidery on black. And colored embroidery. Ok, I guess I love all embroidery bc it classic, & pretty, & fun, and HAPPY to me! I have several embroidered tops & have been on the lookout for an embroidered dress for the past few yrs, but they are usually too short on me. I found one that says it’s long enough & is shipping to me from zulilly so I hope it is! I’ll prob post it soon if I’m able to wear it. It was also one size, so I’m hopeful that works too. Normally I don’t take that big of risks buying clothes online, but it was so cute & a great price….we’ll see I guess!

    Happy day to you! 🙂

    • Thank you so much Rebecca! I like it, too. I really like it with jeans, too. It is pretty versatile. I hope your dress works out for you! I cannot wait to see it! I love shopping online. Too much. ; ). Although the only thing I have purchased online lately are vacuum cleaner bags and hair gel for the boys. Exciting!

      Have a super Wednesday!

  4. GASP!! I adore this dress! AND your style! I swear I went and bought the dress you shared a couple of weeks ago – so gorgeous! I’ve been wearing my Bohemian Traders stuff frequently also! Nothing like buying bohemian clothing online, right!

    • Thank you so much. I love your clothing and your shop. It is beautiful. You always look chic.

      Have a fabulous Friday!

      Jenni

    • Thank you Jessica! : ). I am surprised how much use I have gotten out of those sandals. They are my favorite.

      Have a delightful Friday!

  5. Haha I have never seen the godfather either. I don’t really want to, I don’t think. But it’s weird because I know so many quotes from it!

    LOVE this gorgeous dress. It’s such a lovely cut and color and it suits you perfectly.

    • I know the quotes, too. It definitely has to do with the males always sprouting its contents.

      And thank you so much. I was worried because I was not sure about it but for the price I thought I would try. I was pleasantly surprised.

      Have a wonderful weekend!

      Jenni

    • Thank you Zhenya! I appreciate that! I splurged on those sandals in May and I have definitely gotten my use out of them!

      Have a gorgeous Sunday!
