skirt and top: h&m; shoes: ninewest
so today i had jury duty... luckily they ended up not needing us for any cases.. but we did sit through a few justice of the peace weddings while waiting.. so that was kind of interesting. this skirt was one of my very few purchases while in ny.. and my first time to wear it.. i figured it was appropriate for court. anyways i hope everyone had a good weekend! seriously.. skirt making will commence soon! :)

Lovely skirt!
ReplyDeleteYou're a knock-out in that ensemble. chic and elegant. I bet you were the most gorgeous jury member there.
ReplyDeleteThank you heaps for tag! That's first.. I've never seen this one. Interesting.. no state income tax? How does that work? Do you then have a separate one for the federal taxation?
My aunt who currently lives in Washington D.C. did her doctorate there as well I believe.
i am dreading the day i have to do jury duty. argh. the one thing i couldn't talk my way out of. what is a justice of peace wedding?

ReplyDeleteno state income tax? did not know that!
I've never been to Texas, but it's on my list of places to visit. Can't wait to buy one of your skirts!! (I really want a black or navy one :P )
ReplyDeleteThe zipper on the back of that top is a nice surprise! So stylish, as always. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT TOP!
ReplyDeletethe ONLY thing i would do different... i have to be honest, i think the skirt makes it look a little frumpy... i dunno maybe a pencil skirt or something shorter... there is just something off about the two together!
please do not hate me!
Love the skirt!!
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt. <3 My fondest memory of jury duty is being called for it. And then buying a ticket to go to the outer isladns knowing it was the same day as my jury duty and that morning waking up and having it cancelled. I was so relieved. <3
ReplyDeletelol he's absolutely fine :P
ReplyDeleteAs for the skirt i really think its a lovely colour on you and yay that you didn't have to partake in jury duty lol. Seems like nasty stuff!
Great louse, I really like it!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great-looking skirt, and I'm sure it was a very credible jury duty look.
