OOTD: What I should have worn last Wednesday

This is what I had intended to wear on St. Patty's Day last week. Except I woke up on Wednesday and completely forgot that it was a holiday. I love, love, love this dress! It is a complete knock-off of a dress Anthropologie sold a season or two ago. I missed out on the Anthro one, so I could not resist this version. After waiting for it to go on sale, I broke down last week and grabbed it at full price. Much to my delight, it rang up at the sale price!

On a side note, my plan to blast my cold to oblivion with lots and lots of cold medication failed miserably. I was in bed all day yesterday, and I wish I could be in bed all day today too. It is partly my own fault. I could not resist a trip out on Saturday to watch the Huskies easily defeat New Mexico and enjoy a celebratory BBQ. Huskies are now in the Sweet 16! And you can bet that Thursday's OOTD will incorporate as much purple and gold as possible!
