OOTD – Avon’s Miracle Dress

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday, a day that we’ve never seen before nor will we ever see again so make the most of it!

Remember when I purchased this dress from Avon (here), well the miracle is, I had to exchange the large for a medium and it fits!  I can’t wait to order it in red for the holidays…may opt for a large if it’s after Thanksgiving!  This evening I am attending a Financial Seminar which was postponed from last week because of the tornado watch.  I wanted to wear something comfortable and wrinkle resistant to stand up for 12 hours and this definitely fits the bill.

Have a fantabulous evening!

OOTD – “It’s All Greek To Me” – ΣΓΡ and ΩΨΦ Colors Blocked

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!  You know the days when you put on your clothes and something just doesn’t fit right, or in my case fits too tightly, well that was how my morning started.  As you know on Sunday nights I prepare my outfits for the week but today it was a “pull from the closet” morning.  I put on and then changed 3 skirts, 1 pair of pants, 1 pair of capris and 2 tops because none of them fit right…all too tight!! Not enough “labor” over the holiday, too many Michelobs and Seagrams so now it’s back to the elliptical with a vengeance and summer indulgences are a distant memory!!

After all those changes this is what I ended up wearing, an outfit that is color blocked with my Sorority colors Royal Blue and Gold, (ΣΓΡ ~ Sigma Gamma Rho), and hubby’s Fraternity colors Purple and Gold, (ΩΨΦ ~ Omega Psi Phi).

OOTD – Change of the Shoes

This morning I was all dressed and ready to go and it wasn’t until I got into the car that I realized that there was no black in my dress, or at least it didn’t look like it without my glasses! Needless to say, my son was none to happy to take additional pictures because he was already immersed in his morning sports show. I know the new rule of fashion is not to be too matchy matchy but I had to change my shoes especially since I wore them earlier this week. Take a look and let me know which shoes looks better with the dress that I now see has black in it – I am really not a morning person!!!!

OOTD – Foggy Morning

Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
I stayed up too late last night watching Chicagolicious and like the weather today my head is a little foggy. I had seen portions of a few episodes but never watched an entire show and couldn’t stay up last night either – I may have to check it out online. Today’s outfit has me feeling a little country, I only wished I had a a pair of cowboy boots, I’ll add that to my thrifting wish list.

OOTD – Sunny Sunday

Sunny Sunday heading to the Shore…sike…heading to the grocery shore. I am no longer a shore or beach person as we call it here in Delaware. Driving for hours to lay on hot sand surrounded by a lot of people is no longer my cup of tea. Now if that beach is covered in white sand and deep blue water in the Carribbean I might change my mind…naw!

During my high school and college years I spent practically every weekend down at Rehoboth Beach, DE. My cousin Belinda and I would lay out from sun up to sun down covered in baby oil. My beloved Belinda is resting in heaven after being taken by Melenoma cancer at the age of 29, in 1993. To this day, just the thought of laying out in the sun with no protection all day on the beach is cause for major anxiety. I like to hang by the pool but now I am covered in a high SPF spray or lotion.

OOTD – New Photographer of The Week

I am giving my son a reprieve this week and have enlisted hubby to take my pics – unfortunately he is not as good but I’d never say that to him.  Instead I will set up the tripod that I purchased on Saturday and learn to use the  timer on my camera!!!

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!

OOTD – Green Smoothie

Today’s smoothie wasn’t as green as my outfit because I am low on spinach, I used blueberries, strawberries and non-fat yogurt and it was quite tasty.  Today is Hump Day Wednesday and the week is dragging after last week’s short one but I am plowing through in anticipation of another great weekend.
