Wild Wednesday – OOTD

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday

This evening I will be teaching another FREE blogging class sponsored by The Money School of Delaware.  “Small Business Blogging” will be held at the Bear Public Library beginning at 6:30 pm, and I hope to see a few of my Delawarean followers.

I was going through some of my unpublished pictures from the summer and came across this outfit which I am tagging “Wild Wednesday“.  I love wearing animal prints, and I have shoes, scarves, sweaters, pants and purses in both Leopard and Zebra but Leopard has always been my favorite.

How about you, do you have a favorite “wild” animal print?

I can’t remember where I purchased this asymmetrical top but most likely it was at either at Marshalls, Ross or TJ Maxx.

 I do however, remember getting these sandals from Ross.

 What do you think – does this sleeveless top remind you of The Flintstones?

Linking up today with Transatlantic Blonde

OOTD – Thrifted Tops Tuesday

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday

Being the sleepy head that I am, getting up every week day at 6 am definitely does not give me a thrill.  However, once I’m up and moving the situation greatly improves especially when I see God’s Glory.   Waking up to a beautiful day provides the motivation to have a prosperous one and I hope it’s the same for you.

The rays of sunshine across the frost covered grass gave me pause to stop and say, “Thank you God for another beautiful day”!

OOTD – Broken Boot Heel

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?

Last Weekend in September

Hello friends, I hope that you had a great weekend. I cannot believe that tomorrow is the first day of October…where did September go? The weekend was uneventful but I did clean out my closet and put away the summer shoes. It’s unbelievable that there were this many shoes in my closet!

I also removed a lot of clothes and next week will be at the Flea Market selling them for $1.00 a piece, anything not sold will be donated to Goodwill. I didn’t get a chance to post Thursday or Friday’s outfits so here they are.

Saturday night Malik went with a friend to a Homecoming Dance and was excited to be riding in a Mercedes, which belonged to Mike’s mother – I wish I had a Benz! I didn’t ask, but wonder if they coordinated their attire with the car – lol!

OOTD – Timeless Tuesday

Gauchos have been referred to as “old lady capris”, but I consider them timeless wardrobe pieces.  I own several pairs and love them because they can be worn during any season – winter with boots; spring with open toe shoes; summer with sandals; fall with tights and booties.  Today I opted to wear with a double, bow back top, a tri-metal belt and metallic liz claiborne slides.  Poison ivy has spread and I am trying hard to keep it away from my face, right now it just the arms and 1 leg..
