Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
Believe it or not we got snow flakes this morning, it was nothing major just some spritzing, but I do hope it was the last for the season. I feel sorry for hubby because the year after the big snow storm of 2010, he used his credit card to purchase a snow blower from Sears…it’s been sitting in the garage collecting dust as he continued to pay the high interest charges!
It took me a little longer to dress this morning because what was forecast on Sunday changed and it was too cold for my dress. I ended up grabbing this two-tone skirt and polka dot top then added a little bling to jazz it up. I didn’t wear hubby’s watch to work just used it for the pictures, definitely too much.

Are you a minimalist when it comes to jewelry or do you like to Bling Bling?

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
3.13.13 and it’s still Winter but Spring is right around the corner and I’m frantically trying to wear as many of my winter clothes before it’s officially over!
You may remember when I wore this skirt with brown booties in November (here), but today I chose to wear it with beige pumps to lighten it up a bit.
I would also like to thank my Bloggy friends who co-signed on Tuesday’s Testimony, when we are of one accord blessings pour down like rain!
Don’t ever be afraid to testify – you never know, it might help somebody!
I love this brush suede skirt because it’s style is fashionable for a woman of my age and it fits to a “T” with a perfect length. So glad someone donated it to the GW Boutique (Goodwill). I am going to say the same for these pumps which are also classic in style and just the right heel height because I might cut back on higher heels…NOT!

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday, it’s another dark, damp and dreary day but my prayers were answered so for that I am thankful!
Driving into work this morning I was thinking about a financial situation and became a little depressed. When I got to my desk instead of reading today’s passage from “Our Daily Bread“, I read the scriptures on page 64, of “Gods Promises for every day“, What to do when you feel Worried“. In less than 5 minutes my phone rang with an answer to my prayers,
Tuesday’s Testimony – God is Good!
Give all your worries to him, because he cares about you – 1 Peter 5:7
Jesus said, “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and Trust in me.” John 14:1
Today’s outfit is a Tribal Throwback, hubby had these matching vests made during our first year of marriage in 1991, you know that newlywed stage when it was cute to dress alike! #2 son wanted his father’s vest, but he said, “no, wait until I retire and then you can have all my clothes”, so I gave him mine.
This morning I shopped my son’s closet for my vest.

Hello Friends and Happy DST Monday!
Woke up thinking it would be a bright and sunny Pre-Spring day, instead it was a dark and damp foggy morning, oh well at least I woke up a lot of people didn’t! (Blessed). The day started out much like most people’s heads…a little foggy, why don’t we abolish Daylight Savings Time, it’s original purpose is no longer valid, what do you think?
Driving in fog is dangerous yet some people feel the need to speed which makes it even worse, unfortunately 6 teenagers lost their lives in Ohio due excessive speeding – God rest their souls! (News Report)
Which brings me to another reason why I don’t like car shopping for my son’s, too many young people die in car crashes. As most of you know my lil sis, Gloria was killed in a car crash in 1992, she was only 29, and not a day goes by that I don’t think of her!
Shake it off … shake it off… sorry, didn’t mean to bring you down!
Let’s clear the way for the outfit of the day.
Black Pencil Skirt – Boscov’s // Colorful Top – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Animal Print Pumps – DSW // Dooney & Burke Purse – closet staple // Ring and Bracelet – Mizoutlet.com
What do you think about these pumps with this outfit – should I have worn the green cap-toe pumps from Target?
One good thing about Daylight Savings Time it will be a sunshine filled commute home!

Hello Friends, I hope you had a wonderful Saturday!
The weather here was absolutely GORGEOUS and like almost everyone else in town we spent most of the day outdoors. My son and I had a few errands to run which included a stop at Rugged Wearhouse in Glasgow. There’s a gazebo behind one of the medical centers with a lake (and a Home Depot) in the background which made for a good spot to take pictures.

My “no spend in March freeze” technically wasn’t broken because I had a gift card from Christmas…lol

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!
Hear Ye Hear Ye We Lose an hour of Sleepy on Sundy – boo!
The good thing is we made it through another work week and the weekend is almost here! I am so looking forward to it and will make up that hour loss on Sunday morning. Saturday night will be a late night with me up watching Saturday Night Live with Justin Timerlake as the host AND musical guest!!!!! JT is my all time favorite SNL host and with his new song “Suit and Tie” it’s going to be awesome! Last week Kevin Hart was alright, his opening monologue was hilarious but the skits needed more rehearsing and his use of the words “G*D Dammit” was a bit offensive to me.
I am so looking forward to the beginning of Spring and was taken back when I saw snow flakes this morning, they didn’t last long and I hope not to see anymore until December!!
Bye Bye Snow… Hello Spring Flowers.

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
Delaware dodged the snowstorm bullet yesterday, we only got a little rain and heavy winds and today the sun is shining with temps hovering above the 40 degree mark. Next week’s forecast call for highs in the 50’s to low 60’s, Spring is right around the corner, and more sunlight with the start of Daylight Savings Time on Sunday – don’t forget to “Spring Forward”.
Today’s outfit includes the color turquoise, a color that I like in clothing but not in jewelry. Turquoise, The Gem of Native Americans was very popular in the 60’s and early ’70’s, it seemed as though everyone had a big Turquoise ring or necklace, both men and women. Sapphire Green is supposed to be the “it” color for Spring, but Royal and Cobalt blues are my favorites as well as the lighter shades like turquoise because of their calming effects.
Calm, cool and collected – ready to take on the day!
How does your favorite color make you feel?

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Today’s outfit was inspired by an Instagram picture from Kela’s Kloset, a fashion blogger whom I admire and follow because of her great sense of style. She like myself has vowed to shop our closet for the month of March, me because gas is too damn high. I’m always checking the blogs for ideas and to get inspiration for refashioning items that I already own and this is today’s.
You know how much I love my sleeveless shift dresses, well instead of wearing a cardigan or blazer over it, I’m wearing a print top underneath.
From where do you get your outfit inspirations ~ Instagram or Pinterest?

Snow is in the forecast this afternoon starting at 4:00 pm, just in time for my evening commute so I chose to wear an old pair of boots and to accessorize with silver jewelry
Necklace – Jewelrymax.net // Rings and Hoops – jewelry box // Fedora – Burlington Coat Factory
I didn’t feel like changing my purse this morning so just wrapped a coordinating scarf around the handle
Raindrops were falling on my head
