Black N Boots

 Hello friends, I trust you all had a wonderful week and perhaps are now gearing up for the best holiday of the season – THANKSGIVING!

I don’t know about you but I think the industry is pushing Christmas way too early, I am still eating Halloween candy!  The commercials, the songs, and now the decorations three weeks before Turkey Day is a bit much for me,

What are your thoughts?

Anywho, I finally broke out the winter boots and have worn my favorite pair twice last week, the over-the-knee suede boots and I am lovin’ them.

Sunday Stylin Roundup

Today’s Sunday Style Roundup is featuring only two outfits and they are both entitled “Black N Boots”  I also wore one of my Infinity Scarves purchased from Burlington Coat Factory to break up all the black in this outfit.  The dress is a sleeveless sheath from Ross and the blazer is thrifted from Goodwill.

I always feel so corporate in a blazer and Goodwill is definitely the place to go for them.

In this second outfit the skirt is Worthington and cowl neck are both from JCPenney.  The necklace was a new piece thrifted from Goodwill.

 Today I am also featuring my oldest son, Tayair, not for what he’s wearing although he is handsome in his suit jacket.  He spoke at his CLSC Open House on Tuesday evening.  CLSC is the University of Delaware’s Career and Life Studies Certificate program, a 2-Year, non-residential college certificate program for young adults with intellectual disabilities and I was very proud of him!

Sunday Stylin Roundup ~ Fashion after Fifty

Sunday Stylin Roundup

Hello friends and welcome to this week’s Sunday Stylin Roundup! Last week was fun because I experimented with mixing patterns and I am anxious to know what you think.  

The first outfit is entitled Blue Monday.

Blue Monday

This of course is one of my favorite pencil skirts from JCPenney.  With it I wore a light blue cardigan, black t-shirt and my Cushion Soft shoes from Avon.  

The “Bedrock’ necklace is also one of my favorites because it picks up the colors in the skirt nicely.

The next outfit is entitled Dots and Dashes

Dots and Dashes This is truly a mix of patterns, Polka Dots and Houndstooth but I read if you keep it in the same color family, it won’t appear too drastic.  

What do you think – yay or nay?

These are a pair of my favorite black suede Unlisted Booties and the DKNY tote was purchased about 10 years ago from “Saks Off 5th” in Orlando.

Third outfit is entitled “Lions Tigers and Stripes Oh My!”

I really did a pattern mix with the leopard and stripes and I liked it!  Because the black pants were the anchor the leopard and stripes didn’t clash, I will definitely be repeating this outfit again.

The shoes are Christian Sirano for Payless and the purse is Avon.  I believe the cardigan was either Ross or Marshall’s and the necklace is from Jewelrymax.net.

Last outfit for the week was Stripes and Studs

Now this definitely was a mix match but it seems to go together – right?  Believe it or not, this is a thrifted Lord & Taylor blouse that once belonged to my sister and it has been in my closet since 1992!  

With it I am wearing the striped skirt from Burlington, studded shoes and tote as well as ring and bracelet set from Avon.

I liked this outfit the best, what say you?

 

Last Monday I had to take my car to the dealer for service and ended up with two different loaners, a Chevy Silverado which is a huge pickup truck and then a Chevy Cruze…I’ll tell you all about them next week.

 

I hope your Sunday is a good day and that you enjoyed the extra hour of sleep!
