Best Dressed Cowgirl Wins a Hoagie

A few weeks ago I attended a networking event at the Blue Ball Barn in Wilmington which was sponsored by the Women’s Business Center.  If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen several pics and a Flipgram of the highlights. 

To my amazement I was chosen the winner of the Best Dressed Outfit and for that received a $25 Gift Certificate to Primo Hoagies.  If you’ve ever had a Primo Hoagie then you know that they are delicious!  My outfit was put together with new and old pieces which included an upcycled maxi skirt and it was ironic that the DeDivah – Fashion and Fun After Fifty won the award!

Best Dressed Cowgirl

The skirt was actually a maxi dress that I cut the bodice off to refashion into a skirt which you can read about in this post.  The necklace was thrifted a few years ago from Goodwill and I probably picked up the bracelet at Ross or Marshalls.  The purse is a closet staple and I love it because it’s large enough to carry everything I need for networking events including my camera and selfie stick.

The cute booties and hat were purchased from TJ Maxx and I was lucky to find the hat on clearance for only ten bucks.  I immediately feel in love with the fringed booties and for only $29.99, you know I had to snatch them up for the Fall.

The Peasant Blouse and Crochet Vest were both purchased from Walmart and since they are new arrivals there were several colors of each available.  If you check your local Walmart store I am sure that you will probably find a nice selection of each.

I had a great time at the Saddle Up for Business Event and I want to congratulate all the women and men who have worked hard on achieving their goals of starting a small business in Delaware.  These events are always morale boosters for me as I get ABlake Enterprises off the ground and where it should be in accordance to my goals and plans.
