Black & Blue Monday

Jacket (Pretty Woman, Bedford, IN); Pants (Joseph Ribkoff, The Secret Ingredient); Shoes (Anne Klein, Zappos.com)
It was a rough night for my boys in blue yesterday (though I had better luck with my fantasy team, at least). Even so, I'm no fair weather fan, and I almost always wear blue on game day. For typical Sunday afternoon games, that usually means a Colts fleece or hoodie. It's all about comfort. But, for Monday or Thursday night games, something more office-appropriate is in order.
In accordance with NFL stadium security rules, however, my super cute but slightly too large Colts blue purse has to stay in the closet on game day. Instead, two years ago season ticket holders were given large, clear plastic totes in which to carry the essentials (which, for me, basically means my wallet and gum - I ALWAYS have gum). I couldn't find mine this year, which I only discovered as we were on our way out the door for the first home game. Cue my inner MacGyver... I improvised with a clear plastic zipper tote that held a new curtain panel and added a long black zip tie for a handle! I wouldn't say it's going to be a hot new fashion trend but, hey, it's at least as stylish as the standard issue NFL bag, and it's a Red's Shoe Diaries original. I'm owning it!
Fashion is what you buy; Style is what you do with it!
