Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
This week is flying by and tomorrow is the first day of winter or Winter Solstice, the shortest day and the longest night of the year – are you ready? After the 21st, the days start to get longer and I begin to think Spring – yay!!! However, in anticipation and celebration of Winter Solstice I decided to go full wool in gray including an oversized sweater thrifted from GW Boutique (Goodwill).
Sweater and Skirt – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Footless Tights – Rugged Wearhouse // Boots and Scarf- Closet staples
These are my favorites “go-to” boots, I wear them throughout the fall and winter months with pants and skirts
Wearing silver accessories which is my favorite metal for the winter
I will definitely NOT be wearing a coat or jacket because all of this wool will definitely keep me warm and toasty!
Happy Last Day of Fall 2012 – Smooches!
P.S. Don’t want to hear no mess about tomorrow being the end of the world – puhleeze!!!!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Yay, today my energy level is high, and I am getting excited about having off next week – I hope to take a day or two and just do nothing! I also plan to use a day to clean out my closets and prepare a large Goodwill donation before the end of the year. Raising a glass to a productive and stress free day – cheers!

How do you like the pattern mixing of the poncho with the top? I used to love wearing Ponchos in High School.

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
Normally I am positive and upbeat but today I feel zapped – my energy level is low and the high anticipation of Christmas and New Years has waned – I AM TIRED! It’s because of all the death and destruction around us…from Hurricane Sandy to the massacres at Sandy Hook Elementary School- I am praying for strength and peace for our nation.
Not that it makes matters worse but I just realized that I last wore this skirt on 9/11 (see here)…things have definitely got to get better, being on vacation next week may help.

Hello Friends and Happy Monday
I hope you had a nice weekend and are ready for the week before Christmas 2012. I’m in a mellow mood which may be attributed to Friday’s events and the weekend news reports or perhaps it’s the dreary weather. Whatever the reason, it is definitely a melancholy Monday.
Today’s outfit is totally thrifted from GW Boutique (Goodwill) except the Pashima, purchased from Boscov’s

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!!!!!
This week really flew by and there’s definitely a chill in the air – “it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” – are you getting excited? I don’t have any major plans for the weekend and since my sons are older I don’t have to stress about the holidays but I do want to make a Gingerbread house.
Tomorrow night I may walk around the neighborhood taking pics of the pretty houses or perhaps just sit on the sofa watching movies drinking Egg Nog. What are your plans for the weekend?

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
Today’s titled post; “Broken Boot Heel” makes me wonder why I bought these boots in the first place. I like the color but am no longer excited about them nor do I think they are cute. Perhaps if I had worn them with long pants or a maxi skirt? Hmm…well, I’m wearing them today but will probably donate to Goodwill before the end of the season.
What do think?
Black Gauchos – closet staple // Purple Top and Boots – Rugged Wearhouse // Blazer – GW Boutique (Goodwill)
Necklaces and Earrings – jewelry box
This morning I donated a bag of toys to Toys for Tots so I am linking up Thoughtful Thursday and Katterine’s Corner – hop on over to meet a new blogger and be inspired

Thursday I drove to Goodwill in Exton, it had been a while since I was there last and I’m on the hunt for scarves and striped shirts. I didn’t find either but I did find some other Goodwill Goodies. Remember the post when I stated that I was looking for Cowboy boots, well it took almost 4 months but I found them, a pair of NEW Mossimo (Target) boots for $8.99!
Chaus Blue Skirt and Morgan Taylor Studio Red Skirt – $3.50 each
apparenza blouse (new with tags) and Soft Works print top – $1.75 each
$5.25 outfits
Oversize Nutcracker Grey Sweater (will wear over leggings) and New York & Company Knit Top – $3.50 each
Valet for my son – $8.97 // Towel holder – $2.97, I’ll use for bracelets or necklaces
Dolce&Gabbana Purse – $10.50
I liked these cute Anne Klein shoes but they weren’t my size
Next week I’ll hit Thorndale!

Hello Friends and Happy Monday, 15 days until Christmas and the 7th day of Hanukkah 2012.
Today is one of those, “jump back into bed pull the covers over your head” type of days. It’s cold, damp and dreary, but it’s also another day the Lord has kept us so I’ll rejoice and be glad in it. However, the dreary weather is cause for my dreary outfit including the sensible shoes.

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!
I hope your day is going well and that plans for the weekend are in full gear – enjoy! My mother-in-law is doing well and I thank you for all your prayers. Tonight the boys and I will be visiting taking a small table-top Christmas Tree to brighten up the room and raise her spirits. All week I have been psyching myself up to start decorating and have decided that tomorrow is the day, oh Lord. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t like decorating for the holidays, it just getting motivated to start because I HAVE TOO DAMN MUCH. If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen pics of just a few bins of Christmas decorations that are in my basement’s crawlspace. When my sons were younger, they were all gung-ho and couldn’t wait to help – now it’s like pulling teeth and hubby is a Muslim so he only helps to put the boxes away, the majority of the work falls on me. The older I get the more I understand why people paid others to decorate their homes, remember this episode from “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air”?
It’s not as cold as I expected but there’s a cold rain falling so I bundled up with a scarf for casual Friday.
