Wonder no more. [Editor's note: Not to pat myself on the back too hard, here, but...did I call it? Strep, I mean? Yesterday? Yes, my friends. I called it. Anyone out there need a medical diagnosis? Because I *think* I might be your woman...]</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">Yesterday was baaaad. Like, deathbed bad. Today is bad but slightly better, thanks to the inventor-o'-penicillin. And my dr who prescribed it for me. I needed another scarf today (I even slept with my O scarf on last night because it felt so good on my neck. I know. Weird.), so I guess you could say this houndstooth number was my jumping-off point. And, if you'll recall, it's "<a href="http://adayinlifetoo.blogspot.com/2010/12/decisionsdecisions.html">softer than cashmere?</a>" Haha. Yep. Still funny.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">There's something refreshing and earthy about green-and-b&w as a color combo. So I chose my top(s), paired them with some aging almost-holes-in-the-knees jeans (which are super old but a fresh light blue...I'll be sad to bid them adieu when they die), and slipped on my go-to metallic flats.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">Know how belts are often a style statement? This one is an exception. I'm wearing it simply to hold up my pants. It's even brown. Paired with b&w. I know. Rebel. But I kind of like how it "grounds" the look overall.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">Um, my brain is actually starting to get a little fuzzy. Better sign out before I start rambling like an old man.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">Happy Saturday.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Want this look? </span><a href="http://www.beso.com/american-eagle-outfitters/womens-flare-jeans/ae-womens-artist-jeans/2060432679/detail?af_assettype_id=4&af_creative_id=5&af_id=44772&af_placement_id=1&rf=af1" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">jeans</span></a><span style="font-size: x-small;">   <img border="0" height="1" src="https://adserve.shopzilla.com/img/publisherID-44772/assetID-5/placementID-1/url-http:%2F%2Fwww.beso.com%2Famerican-eagle-outfitters%2Fwomens-flare-jeans%2Fae-womens-artist-jeans%2F2060432679%2Fdetail" width="1" /></img></span><a href="http://www.beso.com/houndstooth-scarf/search?af_assettype_id=4&af_creative_id=5&af_id=44772&af_placement_id=1&rf=af1" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">scarf</span></a><span style="font-size: x-small;">   <img border="0" height="1" src="https://adserve.shopzilla.com/img/publisherID-44772/assetID-5/placementID-1/url-http:%2F%2Fwww.beso.com%2Fhoundstooth-scarf%2Fsearch" width="1" /></img></span><a href="http://www.beso.com/metallic-flats/search?af_assettype_id=4&af_creative_id=5&af_id=44772&af_placement_id=1&rf=af1" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">flats</span></a><span style="font-size: x-small;"><img border="0" height="1" src="https://adserve.shopzilla.com/img/publisherID-44772/assetID-5/placementID-1/url-http:%2F%2Fwww.beso.com%2Fmetallic-flats%2Fsearch" width="1" />   </img></span><a href="http://www.beso.com/faconnable/womens-cardigans/faconnable-zip-front-cardigan/1274092724/detail?af_assettype_id=4&af_creative_id=5&af_id=44772&af_placement_id=1&rf=af1" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">zip-cardigan</span></a><img border="0" height="1" src="https://adserve.shopzilla.com/img/publisherID-44772/assetID-5/placementID-1/url-http:%2F%2Fwww.beso.com%2Ffaconnable%2Fwomens-cardigans%2Ffaconnable-zip-front-cardigan%2F1274092724%2Fdetail" width="1" /><br /></div><br /><div style="position:relative; border:1px solid #bfbfbf; background:white; width:424px;display:block;"><iframe name="shopstyle_search" width="424" height="244" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="http://widget.shopstyle.com/widget?pid=uid6676-2041974-73&fts=womens%20green%20zip%20cardigan&cat=womens-clothes&width=3&height=1&border=0&footer=0"></iframe><div style="position:absolute; left:0; bottom:2px; height:18px; line-height:12px; width:100%;"><div style="position:absolute; left:0; padding:2px 0 0 6px"><a href="http://www.shopstyle.com/browse?fts=womens%20green%20zip%20cardigan#pid=uid6676-2041974-73" style="font:11px verdana,sans-serif;text-decoration:underline;border:0;background-color:transparent;color:#606060">womens green zip cardigan</a></div><div style="position:absolute; right:0; padding:3px 4px 3px 0"><a href="http://www.shopstyle.com#pid=uid6676-2041974-73" style="border:0"><img alt="ShopStyle" src="http://resources.shopstyle.com/im/widget/ShopStyleLogo_powered.png" style="border:0;margin:0;padding:0"></img></a></div></div></div>
