Hello friends and Happy Saturday, I hope you had a great day and are winding down to a relaxing evening. I finally broke my “thrifting fast” and went to Goodwill in Dover and Smyrna in search of a few blouses and skirts. On the top of my list were a white blouse, a houndstooth skirt and anything colored oxblood – JACKPOT I found them all and then some!
All of these items were $3.75 a piece except the shoes which were $6.00 a pair
– Worthington Gold tone blouse
– Alfred Dunner blue/black animal print shirt
– Talbots multi color striped top
– apt9 Oxblood blouse
– Talbots Houndstooth skirt
– Style & Co silk polka dot blouse
– Dressbarn black suede skirt
– Romantic Souls pumps
They had some other nice looking shoes, unfortunately they didn’t fit well.
I love these shopping baskets on wheels at the Goodwill in Dover, the store where my sister last worked and I could only smile thinking about her. RIP Gloria!
My next post will feature the items thrifted from Goodwill in Smyrna.
Have a fantabulous evening – Smooches!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.
Today is Tayair’s first day of work – Yay, Congratulations and welcome to the wonderful world of adulthood! He was hired as a seasonal employee for Amazon.com and will be packing those wonderful holiday gifts being shipped from Delaware.
Today is also “Preppy Day” at Appo High School and here’s Malik’s version of being preppy.
Today was also the first time I used the tripod and timer and I must admit that it’s harder smiling for a camera when there is no one behind it – lol

Hello friends and Happy Fri-Yay!
I don’t know about you but I feel drained and exhausted – events leading up to and the final day of 2012 Election really wore me out – thank God it’s over!!!! It was especially nice driving to work this morning without seeing the negative anti-Obama signs and billboards. I hope they got their money’s worth because I never saw it from the Dems and we were victorious.
Last week my youngest son cleaned out his closet and gave me clothes that he no longer wanted to be donated. This black and beige argyle sweater was a gift to him last year and now I have it back. He definitely won’t be getting any new sweaters from me this year!

I’ve been working in West Chester, PA for almost 7 years, yet had never gone to the QVC Outlet which is less than 10 miles from the office. Today seemed like a perfect day to get out and window shop because I vowed not to buy any clothing in October. I am not a Monk and I broke my vow with a few items that were too hard to resist. Truth be told I was specifically looking for the Wendy Williams’ Adorn line, but they didn’t have it, must be too new.
The QVC Outlet has a lot of great bargains including summer season clothing marked 70% off, purses and shoes 60% off, home decor 40% off and jewelry 60% off. There was a very large assortment of purses, however, none of them “spoke to me” so none of them came home with me. I did fall in love with a pair of Anne Klein Kitten Heels and had to decide between black, beige or grey/lilac. I chose the grey/lilac because I’ve never had this color, and the price was right at only $20.48. I also purchased a Susan Graver skirt, $8.84; a Joan Rivers watch, $13.94; and a Melania Trump charm bracelet, $14.68, total with tax was $59.46. Now no more shopping until November, must only shop my closet!!!
Seasonal Home Decor – 40% off
This dress would look great with a pair of boots – $8.12
Shoes and too many purses to chose just one – so got none!
Aren’t these adorable?
I purchased the watch and skirt
Had to take picture of this customer’s boots – she purchased them from T.J. Maxx for $39.00, I hope they have them next month!!!
Have a fantabulous weekend – Smooches!

Hello friends and Happy Fri-Yay!! Today it’s casual and comfortable to work wearing jeans and loafers. Saturday I will start my day at the Farmers Market hawking my wears trying to make a little extra cash. Later in the afternoon I will be heading to Dover to meet my cousin at Dover Downs. She is taking a bus trip down from New Rochelle, NY and I hope to turn the little cash into something larger – wish me luck and good fortune!!

Hello my friends, it’s FRI-YAY…FRI-YAY and the last day of summer 2012. It’s bittersweet saying goodbye to summer but all is all it was good filled with fun, food, family and friends. I must admit that I am looking forward to a new season equally filled with fun, food, family and friends – we just got an invite to Thanksgiving Dinner – woot woot!!!
So whatever your plans are for the 1st weekend in fall, whether its hiking; biking; thrifting; shopping; apple picking, Holloween decorating; baking, raking, sleeping; cooking; cleaning; eating or just vegging in front of the tv, I hope it’s fantabulous!!!
