Friday

Today will probbaly be a short one, as that there is to be a major snowstorm in the DC area that will start around lunchtime.  The Federal government (AKA most of my clients) is shutting down four hours early, so my afternoon assignments may be postponed.  My boss said that once the snow starts to fall I can head home and work off my laptop if necessary.  Anyway, I am rocking the red for National Wear Red Day!
For those who have been reading for a long time, you will recognize my red crepe jersey dress from Maggy London.  This baby fit me in my first trimester (and a bit of the second) of pregnancy, the postpartum period, before Emerson was even a twinkle in my eye, and now.  I love the fun pockets and how utterly comfortable it is.  I am wearing it with my black tights (Spanx Tight End) and black patent Mary Janes from Mee Too.  I am wearing a black elastic headband and decided to keep the red going with DuWop lipstick in Private Red (I paired with black liquid liner for a clean look).

So ladies, let me see your red!  Let me see how you are showing your support and standing up against heart disease.  Send me a comment or an email with a link to your blog post, a URL to your picture online, or whatever you have where you are supporting National Wear Red Day!  I will update this blog post all day with the new links that I receive.  Happy Friday everyone!

Such an awesome idea wearing red today Allie. I will try and find something red to wear too. This dress looks so pretty on you. You look great in bright colours! Have a great day today and be safe on the roads!

red is a great color for you, Allie!

Thanks again for promoting this! I'm so glad to see other wardrobe bloggers participating!

I have to take my picture at lunch, but I plan to blog about it soon! I'll make mention of it here in a little bit once I get it done! :)

You look AMAZING!!! You really do that dress justice.
I was going to wear the same red dress, but opted for a super casual look instead.

Okay, so just how many folks sang you a few notes of "Lady in Red" on Friday?

You look wonderful, Allie. Simply vibrant. I love that dress too!

You look GREAT, Allie. I wish I could pull the headband look off - it looks great on you!

Good to see you smiling :)

I forgot to say (!!).... I've followed your blog for years now, and I have to say that I have coveted this dress since you first introduced it in your wardrobe. I sooooo want!! ;)
