Hello friends and Happy FRI-YAY!!
I love this time of the year, the autumn colors are so vibrant and the air is crisp and clean ~ “it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas”. Here we are, one week before the infamous “Black Friday” shopping frenzy, though some stores are opening on Thursday now being labeled as “Black Thursday”. Will you be out shopping or standing in long lines waiting for the latest gadget or gizmo? I’ve never done it but really want that $99.00 camera deal being advertised by Target – aah I can wait.
Today is casual Friday so I decided to wear a khaki skirt with a sweater and booties.

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday. Now before you begin…I know…these tights look horrendous with this outfit! Yes, I did look in the mirror and Yes, I tried on several pairs of shoes before settling on this pair but I walked out of the house like this anyway! Oh well, I’ll chalk it up to a “never wear this combo again” hmmm, maybe should have worn flesh tone hose instead…

Hello friends and Happy Monday. Today we celebrate Veterans Day and I salute all active and inactive members of the armed forces as well as remembering those who are no longer with us.
THANK YOU!
I have yet to set up the camera on the tripod and use the timer so I don’t have an full picture of today’s outfit. I simply paired a white top and black slacks with a black and white blazer thrifted from Goodwill. I threw on a pair of black leather clogs which never go out of style and are comfortable any time of the year.

Hello friends and Happy Sunday – be blessed today and always!
What a beautiful day, it’s amazing how good you feel when sunshine bathes your face especially after a long week! I hadn’t been to church in over a month so I was up bright and early this morning even with another dull headache.
Today’s outfit is totally thrifted, sleeveless LBD and Houndstooth blazer from Goodwill and Carlos Santana leather pumps from the Salvation Army.
Happy Veteran’s Day and have a fantabulous afternoon – Smooches!

Hello friends and Happy Thursday! Yesterday’s snow in our area wasn’t bad so the commute home was stress free with light traffic. Today, “Friday Eve”, I am really looking forward to the weekend because I have several inside and outside chores that will have my undivided attention. If you follow me on Instagram (ablake48), this is the skirt that was thrifted from Goodwill on Saturday. Initially I wanted to pair it with an oversize tan sweater but instead chose black to feature the matching belt.
Today I am carrying my new Miche’ Lexi-Prima purse with the giraffe print and it is so roomy and jazzy looking. This weekend I will post more about this great purse line because I’ll be hosting an online party for the holidays so stay tuned.

Hello Friends and Happy Election Day 2012
The weekend was great and yesterday seemed to fly by so I didn’t get a chance to post Monday’s Outfit of the Day. I am still praying for those affected by Hurricane Sandy as the temps are dropping with another storm predicted for tomorrow.
Yesterday was sunny but cold so I briefly ran out onto the back deck so my son could get these shots. He starts working on the 14th so I need to learn how to use the tripod and timer on my camera – that is going to be fun.

Hello friends and Happy Thursday, the 1st day of November 2012. Prayers still going up for all those affected by Hurricane Sandy, may God/Allah provide you with much needed strength during this time.
Speaking of time…it is now flying with less than a month until Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday of the year! This transitional weather makes it’s too warm for me to wear a coat but too cold for just a sweater. This morning I threw on a shawl which is actually a large scarf that once belonged to my sister, it’s more than 20 years old yet very timeless. Every time I wrap it around me I can still feel the warmth of my sister’s embrace – RIP Gloria!

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day and Halloween Wednesday.
I am finally back to work after being off since last Thursday and it’s all good in the neighborhood! This denim riveted skirt has been hanging in my closet for almost a year, hubby gave it to me and I love the big side pockets. I was in search of a pair of booties from Goodwill but found these at Rugged Wearhouse for $10.00 (woohoo). I am not overly impressed with the pairing of the shirt, so my next search will be of a plaid to give the outfit a more country look, right now it’s a little Gypsy!
