Happy Friday blogadees! I hope you’ve all had a relaxing week off, or if you’ve been working, a relaxed and quiet week in the office! I’m headed off to The Big Apple today to ring in 2012 with some friends I haven’t seen in far too long. But before I go, I’m linking up with {long distance loving} for a NYE Friday’s Fancies. I’ll actually be wearing my bolero that I just can’t get enough of tomorrow night, but I’m also pretty smitten with this glittery Topshop number and sparkly accessories…

And as a quick closeout to 2011… it was certainly a year of changes. I am more than ready for a new one to start, but I’m thankful for everything I learned and for everyone I’ve met this year, especially my friends in the blogging community! Reading your blogs and getting to know you has been a highlight to say the least. I’m excited for what the new year has in store for me, and what I have in store for it.
Bring it 2012.

Well it has been quite sparkly week here huh? Even more fitting then that today’s Friday’s Fancies on {long distance loving} is themed Sparkle & Shine! My wishlist is overflowing with sequin-encrusted pieces right now, but here’s an outfit featuring just a few of my favorites. I love the idea of this Anthropolgie sequin bolero, mostly because I have inherited a rather sparkly bolero myself from my own mom. Maybe I’ll bust it out in an OOTD if you’re lucky and I’m feeling brave 🙂

Pure Iridescent Pleated Skirt, Ruche, $36
