Happy Hump Day Wednesday….let the countdown begin. Why do I wish my life away by rushing the week to get to the weekend? I need to be more conscience of that and simply enjoy each day because they are not promised. Today’s outfit is once again not thrifted even though it didn’t start out that way. The first skirt I put on was from Goodwill but it was a little too tight….gotta watch those carbs!! I love the color burgundy for the fall and have read that it’s the color for the season, that and “oxblood”. Who in the world cut an ox and then decided to use the color of the blood to describe clothing – where in the world do you find an ox anyway?
The multi-color skirt was purchased last month from Boscov’s (remember this sale) and I paired it with the burgundy top from Ross or Marshalls. Picking up the mustard color in the skirt with the xhilaration sandals via Target. Necklace and earring set from Jewelrymax.net as well as rhinstone, butterfly ring. The tri-color metal bracelet is from my jewelry box (which means I can’t remember where it was purchased).
Have a wonderful day and make the most of it, I’ll try to do the same.

Tomorrow hubby and I will be celebrating our 22nd Wedding Anniversary at our favorite restaurant in Newark. I will be wearing the blue dress that I purchased from Boscov’s and for the life of me I couldn’t remember if I had shoes to wear with it. Driving home I contemplated stopping at the mall but I didn’t want to spend a lot on a pair of shoes that most likely will be worn only a few times.
I drive by a Goodwill so I decided to stop and found 2 pairs of shoes for $4.00 each! In the past I would never have purchased second hand shoes but thanks to the recession that is no longer unthinkable.
Most times the shoes are gently worn or haven’t been worn at all and I make sure to thoroughly disinfectant them prior to wearing. I donate shoes to Goodwill all the time and there are times when women have tried on shoes in the department store prior to my purchasing them so it’s no big deal.
I spray and wipe out the shoes and straps while wearing plastic or rubber gloves, and for non-fabric shoes I use bleach and water.

Run don’t walk to Boscov’s for their latest “DoorBuster” deals!!! One of the many featured items are ladies maxi and knee length dresses for $19.99, and the selection is huge!! Also featured are select Preswick & Moore Separates for $6.99 each, this collection is versatile and is perfect for the workplace. There’s a large selection of summer shoes and sandals on sale as well as racks and racks of clearance merchandise marked 50-75% off. I purposely did not get a cart and could have spent all afternoon shopping but chose to use restraint and purchased only a few items which I will post later. On my way home I may stop at the Boscov’s in the Concord Mall but I prefer Exton because they have such nice cashiers, especially Edwin. This definitely was a great way to start the weekend and I hope you are having a wonderful FRI-YAY!!

Thank Goodness It’s Tuesday – which is officially my Friday at least as far as work is concerned. After today I will have the next 3 days off from work, no 3 hour daily commuting in rush hour traffic until Monday the 9th – oh happy day!
I plan on spending most of my staycation lounging poolside eating, drinking, and reading. I’ll throw in a little housework, movie watching and napping to round things out – lol.
I hope you and yours have a fun-filled and safe 4th.

This dress was one of three purchased in May 2009, to wear to my grandmother’s funeral – RIP Mama! Blue was her favorite color and I wanted to wear something blue but ended up wearing the traditional funeral black. It has been hanging in my closet ever since because it has a short cropped jacket and ribbon belt which makes it look very matronly. Today I decided to wear it but without the jacket and ribbon belt and it’s now one of my favorites.

April, May and June Showers brings Spring Flowers!
The floral dress has me blending into the beautiful greenery of Spring, so I guess all those rain showers were worth it! I simply adore this dress which was recently purchased from Charmingly Linda’s Consignment Shop, and I think the beaded bracelet adds to the 60’s retro look.

Last night hubby and I attended a birthday party for one of his fraternity brothers (Omega Psi Phi) in Wilmington. The party was held at a small club in town and it was almost like a mini Delaware State College reunion. A Kappa Alpha Psi party was also going on downstairs and I saw a few brothers that I knew from college. The catered food was excellent and the crowd was warm, however, we left earlier than midnight because I wanted to go to church in the morning.
The dress was purchased on clearance from Macy’s last August but I never wore it. My husband’s suit, shirt, shoes and suspenders are his normal work attire however, he chose to go without a tie for a more casual look.
