OOTD – Toeless Tuesday

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday.  Today’s outfit is titled “Toeless Tuesday” because socks are covering my tootsies for the first time in a long time.  I hadn’t planned on wearing socks this early in the season but a change in weather made a change in my mind.  I wore these combat-like boots at the end of September but it was sans socks.

Drizzling rain and colder temps had me putting on a new pair of socks, stripped grey and black purchased from Payless.  Earlier in the year they were on sale, 2 pair for $2.00, I love shopping off season for the best prices.  The black and white sweater blazer was thrifted last season from Goodwill and it’s covering a sleeveless top from Marshalls. (in case of a flash) .  The black pants are a closet staple but must be worn with boots otherwise, it looks like I’m walking in a flash flood!

Have a fantabulous day – Smooches!

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 – Rainy Days and Tuesdays

Breathe in through the nose….blow out through the mouth….again….breathe in through the nose….hold it….hold it….now….breathe out pushing hard…  Whew – I love shortened work weeks but sometimes it can be a bit much especially since I was also off last Friday and will be off again this Thursday.  Last Monday’s post was entitled “Rainy Days and Mondays”, and a tribute to The Carpenters, today’s post is “Rainy Days and Tuesdays” a tribute to Summer 2012.  If you live on the East coast, one thing we can all agree upon is that Summer 2012 was extremely hot AND Summer 2012 went by extremely too fast!  I was fortunate enough to spend a lot of time poolside and even lucked out on Friday and got one last day before the weather turned.  There probably won’t be anymore 90 degree, lazy, hazy pool days this month and next month I will have the pool closed.  The rain is supposed to continue here until Thursday and I hope it’s the same forecast in Charlotte, North Carolina.  President Obama’s acceptance speech is outdoors and it would be terrible for people to be standing outside in the rain, so prayers going up for good weather!

I am wearing another shift dress from Burlington Coat Factory, which I love because it can be worn all seasons by simply adding a blazer or cardigan in the fall and then tights and boots in the winter.

Toes are going to stay out until it starts to snow – sike! These Fioni shoes were purchased last year from Payless and are very comfortable.  Bracelet and earrings are jewelry box staples, the ring is my birthstone, Sapphire – September…Virgo….yeah!!!  Necklace purchased over the weekend from Rugged Wearhouse for $1.49!!!!

Although we didn’t leave town or go on vacation this summer, I must admit that it was very nice to have mini staycations because it allowed me to spend quality time with my men.  Looking forward to cooler temps and beautiful colors of fall.  Have a fantabulous day and stay dry!

Apple Bottoms purse was also purchased last year from Burlington Coat Factory


OOTD – Change of the Shoes

This morning I was all dressed and ready to go and it wasn’t until I got into the car that I realized that there was no black in my dress, or at least it didn’t look like it without my glasses! Needless to say, my son was none to happy to take additional pictures because he was already immersed in his morning sports show. I know the new rule of fashion is not to be too matchy matchy but I had to change my shoes especially since I wore them earlier this week. Take a look and let me know which shoes looks better with the dress that I now see has black in it – I am really not a morning person!!!!

OOTD – Foggy Morning

Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
I stayed up too late last night watching Chicagolicious and like the weather today my head is a little foggy. I had seen portions of a few episodes but never watched an entire show and couldn’t stay up last night either – I may have to check it out online. Today’s outfit has me feeling a little country, I only wished I had a a pair of cowboy boots, I’ll add that to my thrifting wish list.

OOTD – Thundering Tuesday

20120814-205749.jpg

This spring it seemed like it rained everyday and now at the end of the summer we are having a drought. Farmers across the country are having difficulty irrigating their crops and we will see price increases in the fall.

Today’s forecast was for heavy rains and thunderstorms and God didn’t disappoint. “He may not come when you want him, but he’s always right on time!”. Hopefully today’s rains helped with the crops throughout the state.

My outfit is a dress that was purchased last year from Burlington Coat Factory as well as the shoes from Payless. My purse also a few years old is from either TJMaxx or Marshall’s.

This post and pics are via my iPad and it took a minute to get used to it. I hope everyone had a fantastic day and that it continues as you slumber the night away!


OOTD – Sunny Monday

I hope everyone had a fan-tab-u-lous weekend.  Ours was uneventful and restful so now I am fully charged to begin a new work week.  Last night we finally got some much needed rain and today the Lord has blessed up with a bright and sunny Monday!
