Has anyone else experienced the wonder that is Plants vs. Zombies? I highly recommend this game. Perhaps with a glass of wine. And a spare 7 hours of your life. Because you won't regret it.
Thanks Jamie, for this unhealthy addiction tip. Whatever social life I had before, thanks you as well.
On an unrelated plant or zombie note, I've been slowly finding my way around the eatery spots in my neighborhood. Found the most amazing bagel place this morning and last night, I about died for a gnocchi dish I ordered at a local Italian restaurant. There is no quicker way to my heart than a meal with red wine and some hearty gnocchi pasta. And cream sauce. Or pesto sauce. Or both.
Speaking of which, I'm going back for more. Tonight. Then maybe round two with Plants vs. Zombies.
Happy Saturday, everyone!

this outfit is fantastic! i love the pairing with the jacket. and I've been dying to get a bright colored necklace like yours – that totally pops with this look. 🙂
The tulle of that dress is really cute.
love that necklace!! was going to get it yesterday but didn't.. you're convincing me though.
plants vs zombies is hilarious to me. it gets so stressful! i'm obsessed with bejeweled and paper toss
Such a classic look! Done on a budget 🙂 Looks grt!
Oh, gnocchi and wine equals perfection!
This has to be my favourite of your outfits, and I have to say how much I appreciate a blogger who wears clothes that are in my budget, without looking budget. Perfectly executed!

Fabulous outfit!! And I'm a sucker for gnocchi too!!! 🙂
The nude platform pumps are my favorite; but that dress is STUNNING! Oh, I so wish I would have bought it when it was available at Target – there were so many times when I was THIS close to doing so! 🙁
You look gorgeous; and you have the most beautiful smile!! 🙂
Love your pumps! And the necklace is adorable, great pop of color for this look!

This outfit is STUNNING. 100% in love with it! And I hear you on the gnocchi, I just bought some today at the supermarket, and there is little quite as satisfying!
I really love the black and tan combo! Though i think i'll have to stay away from plants vs zombies, I have too many time waster games that i'm addicted to already!!
I absolutely love Plants vs. Zombies. I go crazy over the game. I even sleep late playing. LOLs.
Love your outfit!

You are soooo adorable! This look is perfection.
Will definitely be checking out Plants vs. Zombies, and if it sucks I will just have to kill you. On a happier note love the dress. 🙂
Oh my, I really love this outfit. I am diggin' that dress!
I love everything about this! The necklace makes it especially awesome.
Oh my, I need these nude platform pumps! I love this whole look, especially the shape of the skirt. Awesome mix of casual and dressy pieces.
Hi Krystal!
A little note from Holland 🙂
I've been following you for almost a year now, but never commented on your blog before, but just wanted you to know I LOVE your outfits and your writing even more! You make me giggle behind my little laptop because of your sarcasm and make me look funny, but you know, I appreciate it! :p
Keep up the good work girl, I love you!
Love this outfit.. the nude pumps with the blazer are just gorgeous
Meho xx
haha – my ex-before-the-recent-ex was addicted to plants vs. zombies. He used to play it for hours and got annoyed if I interrupted. So I upgraded for a WOW addict. That didn't work out so well either… I'm going to try and flip the table and ignore whoever the next boy is for a videogame, just to get the full spectrum of perspective 🙂
And I love the turquoise beads + nude pumps!
You look so unbelievably chic!

Beautiful outfit, I love the color of your necklace!
Your outfit is budget-amazing, and you look so high-end! I love the way you mix things. Genius! Tan, turquoise, black… it's the west coast version of the New York uniform!
I love your outfit and the shoes are amazing!!!
love love love.
that dress is so adorable!
you look unbelievable.
I am so head over heels for this look. I actually have an LBD and a turquoise necklace that I've been saving to wear together for a special occasion coming up. I'm glad to see I'm not wrong that they were made for one another. I love it!
I have that dress. It's been in the back of my closet for a long time because I don't know what to do with it. I love how you styled it with the lighter and brighter colors. I kept thinking that I had to keep everything dark and gothic, but I don't have much to go with it. It looks shorter on you than it does on me, but that might be because mine is a large. Or did you alter your's?
Such a gorgeous look, I love the pop of turquoise!
I've been looking for pumps exactly like that for ages, yours are perfecttt
This Outfit Is Total Perfection. 🙂
I love that turquoise necklace! The color pops so beautifully. I also love your blazer. I like seeing different colors of them besides black and navy. Fabulous tulle skirt as well

Ha, I totally agree! Really good alfredo sauce or pesto sauce (and occasionally vodka sauce) and I'm yours. 🙂

Plants vs Zombies hasn't got a particularly good rep in my world… wouldn't play it if one payed me.
