Covered Perfectly Review and Giveaway | #spon
Hello friends, I hope all is well in your world.
Recently I was contacted by Pauline Durban, president and founder of Covered Perfectly, a company whose sole purpose is designing cute, flattering clothing for women over 40. She asked if I would be interested in a doing a product review and giveaway so after checking out the online catalog I enthusiastically agreed.
There were several cute tops but I selected this Cascading Vest because in my mind I envisioned wearing it to an outdoors party or out to dinner with hubby. The vest is available in four fabulous prints and because I already had a pair of leopard print shoes I chose this style to match them.
The Cascading Vest is the perfect accessory to any outfit whether for work or leisure, it works great with pants, jeans, or even a strapless jumpsuit as in how I wore it.
The vest is available in sizes small to extra large and 1X-4X and is flattering to all body types.
Pauline has graciously offered to give a $50 Gift Certificate to one of my lucky readers. This Rafflecopter Giveaway will end at midnight on August 2nd, so take a look at her online collection then come back to leave a comment on which item you would choose if you won.
If see something that you want to order now, please use the discount code “DD20” to receive 20% off the total. Good luck and we’ll chat later.

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I was going through some of my unpublished pictures from the summer and came across this outfit which I am tagging “Wild Wednesday“.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.
When not wearing a skirt or dress I prefer wearing my Gauchos and you know that I’ve had these for awhile, do they even sell them anymore?
What do you think – does this sleeveless top remind you of The Flintstones?

World's Longest Yard Sale
Hello Friends and Happy Saturday!
Here we are again, the 1st Saturday of the month so you know where to find me – set up at Dutch Country Farmers Market in Middletown. I am still trying to purge household items, clothing, books, shoes anything I don’t need in order to make a few extra dollars and leave less to pack or donate when we decide to downsize.
As in most states you’ll find community yard sales, but did you know that the longest yard sale starts in North Addison, Michigan and goes through to Gadsen, Alabama? It is 690 miles long and people stake out their front yards along Hwy 127 for 4 days to sell new and used items!
According to the 127sale.com website, the yard sale officially starts the first Thursday in August and runs through to the following Sunday but this year it started on the 1st. People travel from the North, South, East and West some make it an annual event renting RV’s and camping out year after year. “An exchange of cultures with a common goal; to look, buy and sale!”
Can you imagine taking a week’s vacation to go to a Yard Sale? Oh well, I’ll just stick with my little space in the parking lot on the first Saturday of the month from April to November!
Flea Markets are fun because you never know what you’ll find!

OOTD – Fall Back Monday
Hello Friends and Happy Monday
After a wonderfully warm weekend the temperatures have reversed course and fallen back into Autumn, dropping down into the 30’s and 40’s! Yesterday I was in shorts preparing for the pool opening and today I am wearing fall clothing – this is crazy. The forecast calls for 80 degrees by Thursday so we will be going from sweaters to sleeveless tanks in less than a week, I don’t remember Spring temps being up and down like this – do you?
Skirt – Boscov’s // Tank – JCPenney // Leopard Print Cardigan – Ross

I ordered my NutriSystem foods today to get “Summer Time Ready” – wish me luck!

OOTD – Politically Incorrect President's Day
Hello Friends and Happy President’s Day 2013
Lucky lucky you if you are home today on holiday because “it’s as cold as a witches’ tit”! I remember that as being one of my mother’s favorite sayings during those cold New York winters. Do you remember any crude statements that your parents or grandparents liked to say way before it would be considered politically incorrect? (careful)
In honor of President’s Day I was going to wear Red with Blue and White Polka Dots but it’s just too cold. Instead I chose the warm and cozy flannel shirt that my son put in the “to be donated” box but never made it, a thrifted khaki skirt and knee high boots – it’s all about keeping warm! I like these boots because they can be worn full length showing the brass studs or folded over to reveal the leopard print – two styles in one for less than $20!
