Hello Friends and Happy Sunday
I trust you all had a nice weekend and were able to relax or do something fun and exciting or both! I wasn’t able to clean out my closets but I did have a busy fun filled weekend which started with the honor of being chosen, “Top Blogger of the Week” by Sverve. I was in a fantastic mood as I headed out leaving my men doing yard work which wasn’t what my sons had planned for their weekend. While in town I stopped at my favorite lunch spot, The Java House Cafe where they were hosting a book signing by Christian author Richelle Rodgers. Her book, Forever Growing A Journey of Trust is a motivational book on empowerment and growing your relationship with God. Richelle is a retired Army Vet who remains very active in supporting other female vets and is currently working on a Women Veterans Leadership Awards Symposium to be held in DC this fall.
Today, The Java House Cafe hosted another book signing by author, Jacqueline Charmane, her 5th book, They Raped Me Once Over and Over Again, is a true story based on her life. She spoke briefly about some of the heart breaking events in her life including the emotional and physical abuse by both her rapist and husband as well as the the kidnapping of her son. I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to speak with each author after the events, purchased an autographed copy of the books, and took pictures which I will post later this week.
Today, was a bright and sunny day, a little cool but I had just purchased this Printed Cold Shoulder Dress from Avon and wanted to wear it to church.
It reminds me of a 70’s retro dress with the slit sleeves, do you remember Julie from The Mod Squad?
This vibrant floral print dress is only $24.99 for all sizes – S-3X
I wore navy blue heels – thrifted from GW Boutique (Goodwill)
Embellished Cross Collection Rings and Bangles – Avon
Earrings are silver hoops from jewelry box
Have a fantastical week – Smooches!

Hello Friends and Happy Monday, I hope you had an enjoyable weekend.
I had an online weekend…reading and commenting on Blogs…updating status’…tweeting….Instagraming…Sverving…and…creating a Facebook Campaign, “Bloggers4JCPenney“. There were several bloggers who liked the concept and submitted their posts, I hope you’ll check it out and do the same.
Saturday, I received my first Influenster VOXBOX, and will be posting a review later this week. Sunday, I went to church, wore green and cooked CornBeef, Cabbage and Potatoes for St. Patty’s Day. Tomorrow #1 son has an interview at Bank of America, he and I will be meeting his DVR job coach at 1:00. The job market is tough made even more so when you have a disability so please say a little prayer for him.
We were all hoping for another warm weekend but it seems like ‘ole Man Winter is back for one last hurrah! Wednesday is officially the first day of Spring so I’m mixing in a little bright colors with today’s all black outfit.
Are you planning a special “1st Day of Spring” outfit or will you wait until it gets warmer?
Getting ready for the warmer and brighter days of Spring!

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
There are only a few traces of yesterday’s snow and according to the meteorologist, Mother Nature will be having a hot flash so all that remains will be melted by Friday. It’s tough for people not to accept the existence of Global Warming especially with all of these varying weather conditions around the world. Al Gore has been speaking out for years, now just maybe people will take him more seriously. Okay, stepping down off the soap box.
Most of you know that I love…love…love…shoes and will be the first to admit that I have too many, but it’s not something new, I have been a shoe lover since High School. I’ve always had to have the latest styles in different colors…pastel pinks…mellow yellow…aqua marine blue….heels…flats…sandals…boots – I loved them all. These days I don’t buy as many as I used to but when I find a bargain, I am on it like a heat seeking missile (remember the Target haul?) Because I have so many I can’t remember ever wearing the same pair two days in a row that was until today, this is the first time. There are two reasons for this, first I am still trying to get my closet in order and secondly, these Granny boots are comfortable and look cute with this outfit!

Hello Friends and Happy Saturday, I hope you are having a pleasant day.
I was up early this morning after a late night of house cleaning but it felt good to wake up without chores and the ability to have a leisurely breakfast with my men. I do however, need to get into my closet to remove the avalanche of clothes currently on the floor. Today’s outfit is a pair of jeans that were altered to give it a Boho look, which was a DIY project that was posted here in March.

Hello Friends and Happy Sunday – on this the beginning of a new week I hope your day is going well.
Saturday was an eventful day but the most memorable event was the sunset that occurred around 4:45 pm, unfortunately I delayed and missed getting a few shots. However, if you look closely at these pictures you can catch a glimpse of it over my shoulder in the far background.
I was leaving to accompany my girlfriend who was going to Lewes, DE for a “Passion Party” She is a consultant and asked if I could ride with her because of the distance. Driving down wasn’t bad but coming back the fog was so thick it made for a slow return home.

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
In less than 1 year I have written 500 blog posts. In all honesty when I first started DeDivahDeals I didn’t write much, I still don’t, but according to my WordPress stats this is my 500th post!
cue the fireworks and confetti drop
500 posts is not a cause for a big celebration but next month on my 1st year Blogiversary it will be so get your party clothes ready!
Woot Woot!!
These Madden Girl pumps are my favorite shoes, not only are they comfortable but the Polka Dot bows remind me of Betty Boop and who doesn’t love that 1930’s PinUp Girl?

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.
I apologize if when you read today’s title you thought I would be posting about Barefoot or Lindeman Sweet Red Wines – nope, it’s not Friday nor is this Instagram!
Today’s posted outfit is Wine in color, or you could call it Oxblood or you could call it Burgundy – whatever … I chose Wine because it starts with a “W” and so does Wednesday – u so silly! How would you describe the color?
