OOTD – 1 Bloom Magnolia

We have several pine trees in our backyard that are full of pollen pods which drives me crazy and reeks havoc on my son’s allergies. We also have a very large Magnolia tree that produces only 1 bloom at a time. It was such a tiny tree when we purchased 10+ years ago but it has withstood hurricane winds. I didn’t think it would survive but it has and I patiently wait for the one bloom because it is very fragrant (stinkbugs like it too), but unfortunately the leaves are large and tend to drop in bulk.

OOTD

A few weeks ago I wore this dress covered with a sleeveless top which I later unbuttoned to make it a vest.  I  think the mustard color of the shoes complimented the dress, what do you think?

Ross Clearance Deals

Last week I made the mistake of  stopping at Ross only looking to purchase a 3 pack set of  loofahs for my husband  but unfortunately they didn’t have any.  I had banned myself  from shopping at Ross and hadn’t been there for over a month.  Oftentimes they have such great deals that I’ll over spend my budget and Friday was no exception.  After searching for the loofahs and eye-balling the purses instead of walking straight out the door, I made a right and went immediately to the clearance racks…and the rest is history!

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.

OOTD – Boots On but Tootsies Still Out

Just when we thought Spring had sprung, Winter decided to make a guest appearance.

Fortunately I hadn’t removed my boots from the closet so today I wore a pair with a Spring dress.  For the fun of it I also tried on Booties and Red shoes but because of the rain, I stuck with the boots.

Wearing footless tights from Walmart I can say that my tootsies are still out!
