Earlier this fall, I saw a silver metallic sweater from H&M that I just loved. So, I started on the hunt for something similar. I found this one at the 1/2 of 1/2 price store. It's a Ralph Lauren from last season that had a couple of pulls on it which I fixed with a snag puller. The jeans are from Chico's. The one thing I don't like about Chico's jeans is that the sizing is inconsistent. I would love to be able to buy a pair of the same style in the same size every time. I got these in an online sale for an extra 30% off. By the time I got them, the smaller size was sold out. I like the color and I can probably take them in some to make them fit a bit better. Why oh why can manufacturers not make a specific size the same size every time?

My nail polish for the last couple of days is Revlon Carbonite. |
I am having so much fun with nail polish. The polish I am wearing right now is Revlon Carbonite. It is a dark pewter metallic color and has tiny silver and gold sparkles. It is supposed to be a duplicate for the Chanel Graphite polish. It is certainly close from the swatches I have seen and for 1/5th the price, a darn good one. So far, no chips and only tip wear. That is considerably better than I got from the Chanel polish or the OPI. I think that my nails are a colorful accessory to my outfit. I do realize that I can now spend time on polish since my retirement. If I were still working, I probably would not be polishing as it takes me a long time to do a manicure on myself.

First, I would like to say Thank you for your nice comments about one of my other passions Native American and Western art. I decided not to post any more pictures of my home decor. If you are interested in seeing more of it, please email me privately at sheaccessorizeswell @ cox.net and I will send you pictures of more of my collection. I know everyone is not interested in Native American art and I don't want to post things people are not interested in.
You look lovely, Debbi. This is a great color scheme for you and I think I am going to look for that nail polish today...for a party this weekend! I love it...thanks for modeling for us!
ReplyDeleteGreat look, Debbi - I love the silver with rose jeans. I do share your pain about sizing consistency -- I think there is none! Chico's pieces are cut to fit more loosely, which is great, except for jeans. These do look great on you, and the shoes are a wonderful touch. Love the nails too!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up to Visible Monday and have a great day!
I love your sprakly top, and just adore your nails, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I think I know exactly which sweater from H&M you mean, because I almost bought it myself before punking out, due to my sparkle-fear. The RL one looks smashing on you!
ReplyDeleteOkay-I'm dying over both your sweater and your pants. I want some pants that color now!

Pink pants and grey/silver sweaters are everywhere today! Where can I get me some pink pants! I'm seriously loving this color combo. Your nails always look so great. They do make a beautiful accessory for your outfits.
ReplyDeletePink and gray is a favorite combination of mine. I think it's nice to have a switch up. A gal can't live in black the entire winter season!
ReplyDeleteNice colors...I love sparklies this time of the year. You're rockin' that nail polish. I really like the color!
ReplyDeleteNice to sparkle through this season -- great nail polish!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need some pants in that lovely soft dusty rose shade. A very pretty outfit and color combo.
ReplyDeleteI love the pink jeans, and they look great with your nail polish and with the festive sweater.
ReplyDeletePretty blue sweater, nice nails, I like the nail color of red and pink. It is very difficult to match well pants....greet...
ReplyDeleteThe nails Debbie, they are perfect - I love your color combo, so pretty!

I love the delicate color of the sweater and scarf!
ReplyDeleteLove this color combination! And how come you didnt get the sweater at h&M? Anyway, this one is perfect! and love that nail color. I'm still working so im not doing my nails like i would like!
ReplyDeleteOf course it's ok! What a crazy coincidence that you wore this. I love your sparkly sweater!
ReplyDeleteLove the color of that polish! I find that the cheaper brands do usually last longer than the more expensive ones! I use a brand called Sinful Colors that I get at Walgreens for $0.99!! I need to invest in a snag puller. Never knew one existed! Kiah
