OOTD – Grazin’ in the Grass

With all the rain this month the grass was saturated and my shoes and toes got a little wet, but fortunately they dried before I got to work.  I recently purchased this dress from Goodwill because I liked the criss-cross back and the shoes match it perfectly.  I love the colors of Spring.

Dress – Goodwill// Wedge Shoes – Avon// Belt – removed from another shirt

Ross Clearance Deals

Last week I made the mistake of  stopping at Ross only looking to purchase a 3 pack set of  loofahs for my husband  but unfortunately they didn’t have any.  I had banned myself  from shopping at Ross and hadn’t been there for over a month.  Oftentimes they have such great deals that I’ll over spend my budget and Friday was no exception.  After searching for the loofahs and eye-balling the purses instead of walking straight out the door, I made a right and went immediately to the clearance racks…and the rest is history!

Maxi Dress – $9.99
Sandals – $14.99

Blue Stripped Maxi – $9.99

Maxi dress paired with cropped denim jacket from Goodwill

Maxi dress paired with denim vest from Goodwill

Gurly Dress that I will definitely be wearing as a top paired with capris – $.8.99

Shannon Ford Blue Lace Top/Lingerie – $3.49

French Laundry top was not on clearance – $7.99
I may take it back because it didn’t look that great on

WD.NY Ethnic Print Pants – $9.99
Madden Girl Beige Shoes – $14.99

I may pair the pants with this purple top that I purchased on clearance at Ross several months ago.

Mother's Day 2012

I hope and pray that all the Mothers had as nice of a day spent with their children as I did.  My Mother’s Day was the fulfillment of one of those “I can’t wait till they grow up and …. “

“I can’t wait till they grow up and talk…I can’t wait till they grow up and are potty trained..I can’t wait till they grow up and walk… I can’t wait till they grow up and go to school…get a job…move out…etc.  My “I can’t wait” was having them drive me to lunch and paying for it tip and all!

Although there are times that I long for my sons to be toddlers again, it’s a beautiful thing when they are old enough to appreciate  and show

how much they care without coaxing.  I was very surprised when hubby told me that the boys planned on taking me out for lunch and it was a beautiful day with just the two of them.  Afterwards we stopped at Lowes to get flowers and of course to Goodwill for the Mother’s Day $5 off $20 sale.

As Seen On TV – Hair Bean – PASS

At Ross I purchased another As Seen On TV  item, the Hair Bean.  I tried it, liked it, and feel it was well worth the cost.

Just happened to see this in a bin and decided to give it a try

Little to no shedding

I liked the results
