OOTD: Fuchsia & Kelly Green







OK so I have a story about the necklace I'm wearing in today's OOTD!  I got it from The Bauble Bar and I'm completely in love with it!  It's so big and bold I love it and I sorta reminds me of Kate Spade I think because of the Kelly Green color.  

Ok so I wore this out this past week to the grocery store and this older woman came up to me and GRABBED my necklace and started to speak to me in rapid fire German!!!  I was completely dumbfounded and stood there stammering that I only spoke English and that I was really sorry if my necklace offended her in some way!  She finally let go and continued to ramble at me in German AND THEN she grabbed it A SECOND TIME and continued to yell at me in German.  At this point I'm completely flustered and feeling totally helpless finally a bystander steps and says "oh she wants to know if it's heavy" 
-___-

WHAT THE EFF!!!!!?!!!

OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMG

I'm like "you're joking she wants to know if it's heavy?!" 

He's like "yeah.........."

END STORY.

Le sigh.  Some things are truly lost in translation.

  12. i love baublebar! i`ve only ordered there once, but the quality is so so good! needless to say, i was completely impressed haha. my friend was approached before too! although it was at a restaurant in chicago, it was still super awkward. this little old lady bought a gold chain necklace off my friend (which btw was purchased for $10 at forever 21) for $30! but my friend loved it so much, we hunted it down the next day and low and behold, it was in the clearance bins for $4 ahhaha.

    ps: i die for your shoes! the leopard is done so well on these!

  13. Oh wow, I can't believe that lady did that! I would've been so stunned. I don't think I'd know how to react in that kind of incident, lol.

    The necklace does have a bit of Kate Spade influence to it, though! <3

  19. Hahahaha...That's just too funny. I visited Guangzhou 15 years ago when I could barely utter a single word of Mandarin. I had strangers coming up to me touching my "white" skin. I was pretty fair compared to the locals there. BUT having numerous strangers touching me or checking my skin out and jabbering in a language I couldn't understand just freaked me out.

    I actually really like the necklace. I'm always drawn to large statement pieces. Love the contrast between the top and necklace too.

  22. Haha, I would have freaked out too! I love the mix in the outfit Lisa. The leopard shoes with that top are really beautiful together.

  23. If you ever need a conversation starter, you've got one! The way you typed out your story, it's like I was there and I witnessed it. I'd be afraid of her breaking the necklace and the beads spread all over the floor and she slips. I love your outfit, I love black cardigans over a top that is a giant pop of color!

  26. that's hilarious! reminds me of a picture i saw that had a stern-looking german lady and the caption read, "Tell someone you love them today, because life is short.. But SHOUT it at them in German, because life is also terrifying..."
