Perfect Pairings: PB&J, Axl and Cutoffs, Jerry and George

I love a good food and wine pairing, but my matching knowledge isn't much more extensive than red with meats, white with seafood. OK it's a little better than that, but I generally leave it to the man. Pairing outfits with occasions or matching shoes with a dress? Now you are talking.

So this week I was inspired to do a little international cooking and thought I would document my adventures and pair a little outfit with it.

Make this again Sam

Meal: Moroccan Spiced Tilapia with mango and cilantro served with Currant and Vegetable Cous Cous.




Outfit: Obviously anything inspired by Casablanca or just a ridiculously embellished kaftan and giant gold jewelry.

Kaftan

Gold Earrings



Necklace


Clutch and Change Purse



Una Cerveza Por Favor

Meal: Baja Prawn Tacos with avocado cream and shredded cabbage and my version of Tacos Al Pastor.



Outfit: Anything inspired by The Night of the Iguana or an embroidered top or dress with a wood beaded necklace and a tooled leather bag.

Embroidered Jumpsuit


Fiesta Shoes


Tooled Leather Clutch


I need to do some Italian cooking next week just so I can find vintage Gucci things.
