Cover that thing up

Since having my thyroid surgery last week I've been avoiding going out because of the HUGE scar on my neck. Luckily it's cooled down a bit here in Houston and that only means one thing...scarfs!

Hoorah! Just in time for me to make an outing (my girlfriends bday is this weekend).  I wouldn't dare go out with my neck exposed and gross everyone out. If you saw it, you'd agree :)

I have TONS of scarfs but I think it's time to do the "out with the old, in with the new" bit.  I've been perusing Etsy sellers and I found some beauties!

How does one make a decision?

Pretty in Paisley

As I sit her and reminisce about the 80's, which I do quite often (I know, I know...those glory days will pass you by!), I think about all the paisley I used to wear.  I remember the shoes, the shirts and yes, even the pants with the paisley print.  I was crazy for paisley! I'm wondering when it will come back, because I'm totally ready :) Hell, why should I wait? I might just bring it back for myself!  While the thought has crossed my mind, I decided to see what I could find on Etsy. Take a look at my fab vintage paisley finds!

I adore all the items, but the ones I would really love to have are the hat and the shirt. Don't think the shirt will fit, so I might have to just get the hat :)

What do y'all think?
