OOTD – Thrifted Thursday

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.

OOTD – Traci Lynn Thursday

Hello friends and Happy Thursday, I hope you are having a productive and stress free day.  This is the eve of yet another busy 3-day weekend but I’ll get to sleep in late on Sunday even though I should go to church!  I am wearing a watch that I purchased Saturday at Del State’s Homecoming from a Traci Lynn Consultant and I love it!

OOTD – Shifting Gears

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.  I am still playing catch up after a busy yet fun filled 3 day-weekend.  I was off on Friday so after my mammogram I went to the nail salon and then to Rugged Wearhouse for gear to wear to Sunday’s Breast Cancer Awareness walk.  Saturday was Homecoming at my Alma Mater Delaware State University, the classes of the ’80’s were in full force, I saw people that I hadn’t seen since graduating in 1983.  The icing on the cake was the beautiful weather for the entire weekend – God is truly good!

OOTD & Wordless Wednesday-NOT!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.  This morning I had an hour long conversation with a cousin that I met only once, 12 years ago at my father’s funeral.  We talked and laughed as if we had spoken just last week.  Our conversation was enjoyable and we both learned a little more about each other and our families.  These days it seems as though personal letter writing or conversing on a LAN line has been replaced with texting, instant messaging, tweeting or facebooking.  We need to connect on a more personal level with family and friends especially as time marches on and our lives shorten.  Today I vow to call her more often as well as having live conversations with other family members and friends.

OOTD – 1980’s Belt

Hello Friends and Happy Monday.  I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend with a chance to relax.  If you follow me on Instagram or Foursquare you know that I spent mine cleaning out desk drawers, shopping at Costco, Walmart and upgrading my Blackberry to a Smartphone at Radio Shack.  This morning I spent way too much time trying to decide on a belt and eventually settled on one that I’ve had since college, sometimes it pays to keep things.

Remember when I purchased the the pencil skirt and top from Target (here).  The shoes and cami were purchased at Ross.

OOTD – Popping Pink

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.  Like the sun that will be popping through the clouds this afternoon, I am popping a little pink with black.  Black Boots or Pink Pumps was the  dilemma this morning and I am not going to reveal which one I chose.  Tell me which one you like better?

OOTD – Maxi Monday

Hello Friends and Happy Monday.  If you are on the east coast you woke up to a brrrrr…..chilly morning.  I love the cool, crispness of the season, windows cracked open and covers pulled over my head is the best way to sleep!  Today’s outfit is a faux suede maxi thrifted from Goodwill, multi print top from Ross and pumps from Rugged Wearhouse.
