At the very end of my Accutane course, when Aquafor no longer made an impact, I was peeling off whole layers of skin from my lips (like a snake shedding skin...it was that graphic). La Mer’s lip balm was my savior. I also use it for my cuticles with good results—because of travel in Eurasia and Central Asia, plus very drying water, my hands are a perpetual mess. This balm is fantastic.

This is the only thing that worked for me on Accutane! Luckily my doctor had me on a lower dose so my lips were not quite on the snake shedding stage, but I’ve heard that’s rough. I got a sample of the La Mer balm last year and wasn’t overly impressed, but maybe I need to give it another shot!

We’re supposed to be done with it late tonight. If I never see another snowflake again, it will be too soon.

Cafe, I also like buying missoni for summer. I mean, not the city summer which is all year round here but summer vacation in Europe. Those see through pants by the way were very popular in Marbella last summer
BBC, your post about your shopping in Sephora made me laugh. I too sometimes buy lots of new stuff trying to convince myself that I am going to use it. The novelty wears out, the excitement goes, some time later I find it, think “what was I thinking” and give it away to my teenage girls who don’t even want it. I have a drawer full of what-was-I-thinking things. However, the excitement of the purchase was worth it :smile:
I was a diligent Dress Up Thursday Club member. We traditionally celebrate 8th of March (Women’s Day). I usually receive presents but forgot to buy them this time. So, my sheikh just took me to a nice restaurant
This Nina Ricci dress has see through panels which for some reason look like stains in photos

Have a fun charity event tonight! Please ignore the total mess in the background. I found this silk the Kooples dress new with tags on Poshmark for $70 (original price $395!!), paired with Jimmy Choo heels and my new Ferragamo mini bag.

Bargain!

The print of the dress reminds me of my Hermes Plumes scarf by Henri De Linares

Dress-up Thursday and I'm off to a Birthday party

What you can't see are my shoes (Prada ring-lizard wedges from goodness knows when - only because I couldn't find my Prada bejewelled purple velvet wedges in time). I'm also wearing a Georg Jensen gold Cave ring, it's actually huge but not sure you can see it.

Anyway vintage jacquard weave maxi and APdP Changeant moussie 140 tied around of a grey tee as a top. Present, card and sable jacket by the door (still freezing) > see you later

(I have Thursdays off - sorry for not posting on the correct day!)

You do look fabulous. Really like how the tie of the scarf makes it a part of the outfit rather than a separate thing.

I figure Dress Up Thursdays is a short weekly season...Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays....

I have informed DH he is on photography duty again today, so he fled for Costco.

Classic cookie! Loving the colours you wear and put them together. I also like the way the pointy shoe line sharpens up the outfit.
