OOTD – Black Friday

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay ~ Fri-Yay ~ Fri-Yay!!!

Wow where did the week go?  Are you planning something fun and exciting for the weekend?  I’m having my car serviced in the morning and then working on income taxes in the afternoon – Whoopie!!!  I will be stopping by The Java House Cafe to discuss promoting a community event happening next week so that will make my Saturday more fun and exciting.

Today the weather is gorgeous and according to Punxsutawney Phil Spring is only 3 weeks away, however, I am not ready to break out the pastels or put away the boots.  My casual Friday’s attire is still winter with jeans, a sweater, scarf, boots and silver jewelry accessories.

OOTD – Out of the Closet

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve

How often do you venture into the back of your closet? Are you afraid of going back there…are you afraid of what you might find…or are you just afraid of getting lost never to be seen again? I very rarely look in the back of my closet, not because of it’s size but because that’s where I keep clothes that no longer fit but don’t want to get rid of…as if I’ll ever wear my Wedding Night nightgown again!  Unfortunately, included with those items are also others that wish they could see the light of day because they have been forgotten yet still fit.

Thanks to the avalanche in my closet I can now see clear to the back and guess what I saw….pantsuits….lots and lots of pantsuits, which were very popular in the mid-90’s.  At one time in Corporate America before there was a “Work From Home” program when you could wear sweats, jeans or pajamas, Casual Friday’s for women meant wearing pantsuits to the office and I had quite a few.   The one that I am wearing today was probably kept because of the unique buttons which is it’s best feature otherwise, it’s just a “plain Jane” pantsuit.

I think my son may have been a little upset with me this morning and took it out on my head which in most pics has been chopped.

OOTD – Avalanche Attire

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay – Fri-Yay – Fri-Yay!!

Our local forecast was way off, we only got a few flakes early this morning and now the sun is shining on this a beautiful crisp Winter’s day. What are your plans for the weekend, will you be doing something fun outdoors? Not me, tomorrow I’ll be stuck inside my closet thanks to a mini avalanche that occurred last night.
Less than a minute after hanging up a shirt the top rack came crashing down taking down the one beneath it as well. Thankfully I had just stepped back otherwise I could have been hit in the head with falling purses! (don’t laugh, it was a hard hat zone!)  I could only just look up and stare, hubby said, “you have too many clothes” – bite your tongue man!  He offered to re-do my closet with sturdier material so tonight off to Lowes we go. I wish my closet looked like his…..

and not like this!!!!

Today’s outfit was born out of the chaos in my closet. The scarf which was hidden on a shelf along with the boy’s baby blankets and box of teeth – (what do you do with baby teeth?) was the palette.  Most of my shoes are covered underneath all those shirts so I am wearing a pair of the loafers I just bought from Target.  They were still in the spare bedroom and had never made it into the closet along with these purple jeans.

All in all I think I made the chaos work for this casual Friday – what do you think?

OOTD – Khaki & Creme

Hello friends and Happy FRI-YAY!!

I love this time of the year, the autumn colors are so vibrant and the air is crisp and clean ~ “it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas”.  Here we are, one week before the infamous “Black Friday” shopping frenzy, though some stores are opening on Thursday now being labeled as “Black Thursday”.  Will you be out shopping or standing in long lines waiting for the latest gadget or gizmo?  I’ve never done it but really want that $99.00 camera deal being advertised by Target – aah I can wait.

Today is casual Friday so I decided to wear a khaki skirt with a sweater and booties.

Attention Booties – Kmart // Khaki Skirt  – Goodwill // Khaki Creme Striped Top – Kmart

The beauty of autumn colors is breath taking!

OOTD – Casual FRI-YAY

FRI-YAY – FRI-YAY ~ thanking God we made it through another work week without any hurt, harm or danger!  Heading out shortly to start the weekend, a relaxing one with no major projects other than organizing the shoes scattered throughout my closet – yay!  Casual Friday I decided to wear my DIY maxi shirt (here) with a plain red top, and a pair of flat sandals from DSW.

OOTD – Black and White with a Splash of Green

FRI-YAY ~~ FRI-YAY

I kept with my black and white theme this week but added a splash of green for casual Friday.  I can’t believe that this is the last weekend in July, summer is just flying by and soon the weather will be cooler and long pants will be the norm.  These long pants have been in my closet for several years, they can be cinched on the side or folded to look like capris.  I’ve worn them with heels and boots but today I am wearing these comfy neon green and white sandals.  I hope you all have a fan-tab-u-lous weekend!
