OOTD – Black & White

I have been wanting to wear these white pants for several weeks now but the weather hasn’t been warm or sunny enough.  

Today is the day, and in my head I hear the woman in the commercial saying, “don’t wear white after Labor Day – who are you? – my grandmother?”  The actress, Lisa Raye wears white everyday so here I am in my white pants before Memorial Day.

OOTD

The second week in May is starting off cool and cloudy but I’m not going to complain because I know the heat is just around the corner!

Today’s shoes pairs well with the top, however, for me they are too dressy to be worn to work.

Goodwill Donation and Mini Haul

A few Saturdays ago my son drove me to the Middletown Goodwill so that I could donate a box of clothing and electronics.  He’s still working on his 50 hours of supervised drive time as per the state’s Graduated Licensing Program and I enjoyed being chauffeured.

Of course after I donated in the back we went to the front for a little shopping!

New yellow jeans, unfortunately they were not my size!!!

OOTD- Rain Rain Go Away – NOT

This year there wasn’t enough April showers to bring May flowers so all this rain is a welcomed relief  to the farmers and lawn and garden enthusiasts.

The birds are happy because the ground is soft making it easier to find a meal, the plants and grass are happy because they weren’t as green  due to the  drought like conditions but most importantly the allergy sufferers are happy to have the pollen washed away!

I am happy because I get to wear a few more long sleeve shirts before the blast of summer heat comes barreling in and you know it will in full force!

OOTD – Polka Dot

Today started out a bit rainy and overcast but temps are supposed to rise with bright sunshine heading into the evening commute.

The polka dot shirt was thrifted from Goodwill and started out as a size 2x.  I sew so I never let sizes deter me from making a purchase and I had been searching for a black and white polka dot top.  With help from hubby who pinned the sides so that I could cut and sew it, it’s now a better fitting size large.  I wore a Fedora instead of carrying  an umbrella which is such a pain when walking only a few feet into the office from the parking lot.

Goodwill Haul x 2

Yesterday I hit up the Goodwill stores in Thorndale and Chadds Ford, PA.  The clerks were busily filling the racks with Spring and Summer wear and I was able to snag a few items to add to my wardrobe.  Today I am taking a box to the Goodwill in Middletown because for everything I bring home, I remove something from my closet and donate.

I’ve decided to take pictures while in the store even though other customers look at me like…”who is she and why is she taking pictures”, it makes me feel like Re’gine  in the episode of “Living Single” when she pulled together an outfit while working at “Le Rag Bin” for the soap opera “Palo Alto” – Smooches!
