No way! I live in Saratoga. What about you?

I was just in Saratoga last weekend for an awards banquet, how funny! I'd never been there before - what a beautiful town! I live further west, in the Elmira-Corning-Ithaca area. Just 20 minutes from the Finger Lakes!

Small world! I'm heading to Saratoga Springs tomorrow (i'm in Alabama) to see the Dave Matthews Band. My friend and I have been DMBstalking for years and SPAC was one of the places we always wanted to go. My SIL lives in Albany, so a free place to stay! Heading to NYC for a few days Sunday morning, too. So exciting!!!

That sounds like a lot of fun - have a great trip!

I woke up with a small cold and it is pouring outside so I am trying to combat my natural instinct to throw on a hoodie and head to work. I'm not sure that I am sold on the outfit though and I will probably end up changing a few more times in the next 15 minutes.

Honeydew, what part of upstate NY are you from? I live upstate!

No way! I live in Saratoga. What about you?

I used to live in Ballston Spa then we moved to Poughkeepsie and lived there for a few years.

Hey natablue - are you in tv? My husband used to attend that awards dinner for the AP in Saratoga when we lived in NY!

That is funny! Thanks for the compliment; I LOVE living here. I was out at the Finger Lakes last Feb., and I loved it as well. We want to come back when the weather is better.

Yes, come back In the summer or fall! Did you go wine tasting?

Gotcha. Though if you are not showing any cleavage and they are completely covered, I don't see anything wrong with it. But better not to get the unwanted attention at work.

This dress is a recent purchase and I'm trying to decide how I feel about it. I think the ruffle is throwing me off so I have to see if I can tuck it in or remove it.

I love the dress! Looks like the perfect summer "throw on" dress! I think the ruffle is cute too.

Definitely! I work in Elmira. This area
is so small it's funny when someone has actually heard of it!

Upon this board's discussions about pearce pumps / nude shoes, I went to Target to get a pair. Unfortunately they only had camel which I've decided was just a shade too dark for me - a very white white girl. Anyway, right next to the nudes were these beauties and they're now residing on my feet!



But I still need to get a pair of nude pumps...

The other shirt was a tight t-shirt, not a button down. I liked it better because it was more casual (wearing a pencil skirt is kinda dressy in my office, haha)

Dress: AT, thrifted. Necklace: Lulu's.

I love the little buttons:

[secretlyevil]

glw - that necklace is gorgeous!

I'm actually going to Watkins Glen this afternoon! DH and I have the day off, some are going to hike the gorge and then go to a couple wineries.

Belhurst is amazing - I haven't stayed there, but I've been to the winery and had lunch there. We also looked at it for our possible wedding venue but chose a place a little closer to where we live. It's beautiful though!

My H went to Ithaca College and I LOVE it up there! I sometimes think we should move there and then I think about winter in upstate NY and change my mind. It is such a beautiful area.

I love living here! It's a beautiful area, and close to so many large cities. The winters aren't so bad
