Veteran’s Day 2013

Hello Friends and Happy Veteran’s Day

I trust you all had a wonderful weekend and if you are off today honoring a Vet I do hope that you are enjoying the day, unfortunately for me I have to work.

Happy Veteran's Day in our neighborhood.

Happy Veteran’s Day in our neighborhood.

The month is already flying by, can you believe that we have less than 18 days until it’s Thanksgiving 2013?  

This is what I wore on the first casual Friday of the month which was by far the best beginning to November that I can remember. After an early morning mini downpour, the temps rose to 78 degrees with bright sunshine, it was almost summer like.

Do you remember this pink suede jacket that I thrifted last year from GW Boutique? The sleeveless tank was thrifted earlier in the year also at Goodwill.

I found these “pink bottom” loafers at Rugged Wearhouse – aren’t they cute?

Have you started planning your Turkey Day meal or will you be eating at a relative’s home instead?

We haven’t made any plans and I am not looking forward to asking hubby because it will be the first one without his mother….maybe we’ll just stay home and have a quiet dinner.

Thank You Vets for all you have done for this country – Stay Blessed!

OOTD – Throw On Thursday

Hello friends and Happy Thursday, the 1st day of November 2012.  Prayers still going up for all those affected by Hurricane Sandy, may God/Allah provide you with much needed strength during this time.

Speaking of time…it is now flying with less than a month until Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday of the year!  This transitional weather makes it’s too warm for me to wear a coat but too cold for just a sweater.  This morning I threw on a shawl which is actually a large scarf that once belonged to my sister, it’s more than 20 years old yet very timeless.  Every time I wrap it around me I  can still feel the warmth of my sister’s embrace – RIP Gloria!
