From Yesterday to Today: A Very Y2K Birthday

Top: Current Mood, Dolls Kill




Shoes: Jessica Simpson, DSW



Bag: Delia's, Dolls Kill

Skirt: Tinseltown, Macy's

This Monday, my birthday, blew by in a blur of snow and a rash-induced doc's visit for Char Bar.  But that was okay because I had the good fortune to celebrate with my whole family on Saturday.  Also, because a handy dandy cream made that pesky rash go away.  

Anyway, although I turned 43, in one way it felt like 18.  I'm of course referring to the Y2K vibe of my outfit.  It certainly couldn't be anything else, given that some days I feel a hundred! 🤣  

I've had the top, which is Current Mood from Dolls Kill, for a few years, and the bright pop art graphics and fitted mesh remind me of tops I wore my last year of high school.  However, I snagged the skirt which, in my opinion, has even more of that '90s-meets-aughts-space-age feel, just this year from Macy's for -- wait for it -- $6.76.  I liked it so much that I ordered two more, one in black and one in gold.  I love when old trends come back again.  

Just like I love that the older I get, the younger -- and trendier -- I want to dress. 😏🎂
