Hello friends, I hope all is well in your world.
Recently I had a conversation with a few girlfriends who admitted that they didn’t like wearing costume jewelry and preferred to only wear a small gold chain around their neck. You guys know that is not the case for me as I love wearing costume jewelry especially large rings and bold statement necklaces. There are several reasons why I like to wear them but the number one reason is that they can add pop to a casual outfit or to a plain LBD.
Statement necklaces can also flatter your face and they look great in pictures. Being the frugal fashionista that I am, you know that I don’t spend a lot of money on anything, especially costume jewelry so when I discovered Kisspat Boutique I was happy that it was in-line with my budget. Kisspat Boutique offers inexpensive jewelry and accessories and they ship worldwide. They also have weekly giveaways and 10% off your first order.
This Summer Statement necklace also comes in several other colors and if you want to see more of what they have to offer, check out their blog at Fortheloveoftrend.com or on Facebook and Pinterest
I like how this necklace jazzed up my thrifted LBD, what do you think. To jazz up one of your summer outfits, Kisspat Boutique has offered to give away a Summer Statement necklace to one of my lucky readers.

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
This week’s “You Choose The Shoes” may be a little bit more difficult because the shoes are similar in pattern and style, however, there can be only be one winner so I am really counting on you for this one.
Oh wait a minute, before we begin, here is the winner from last week’s challenge:
Thank you all for participating.
Okay, this week’s challenge is between Payless -vs- Ross
Because the dress is a simple purple sheath purchased from JCPenney, I knew it needed to be punched up with pops of color, so I added this necklace from Avon/Mark – what do you think?
Last season I wanted these pumps so badly that I drove to two Payless stores to get them. Thankfully, the Exton store called others and they found a pair in my size at the Concord Mall which is on my way home.
Okay, which ones do you choose?
You can see they are similar in color and pattern, but the heels on the Payless shoes are pink and the ones from Ross are gray. Can’t decide, take one more look then send me your choice.
Payless
Ross
BTW, hubby is now my photographer, which is why I may be smiling more. At first he made me nervous because he would give me these looks when I’d say, “nope, not right, let’s do it again“. However, I do think that he is enjoying himself but I have to watch him, otherwise, he’s focusing the camera on other parts of my body if you know what I mean!
I’m heading over to visit The Pleated Poppy for WIWW!
Stay Blessed ~ No Stress in 2014!

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!
Summer is is flying by so quickly can you believe tomorrow is the last day of July!
This outfit which I wore last Friday was totally thrifted from GW Boutique and was very comfortable for the weather. Last week there were several temperature fluctuations that ended with a torrential rain storm on Sunday. Motorist returning from the beach and shore were stranded on major highways for hours. This week we are in store for beautiful, low humidity days perfect for anyone taking a late vacation to the beach.
Top to Bottom thrifted from GW Boutique
Accessories (Watch, Necklace, Bracelet) – Avon
Are you ready for summer to end?

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
The weather is warming up nicely despite yesterday’s hail storm, yes, it hailed in Middletown, Delaware. I hadn’t reached town yet therefore, I missed it but my girlfriend posted a pic on Facebook (LIKE me) and it was awesome, actual golf ball size hail in May – this global warming ain’t no joke!
I am getting a little impatient with the weather and am no longer waiting to go sleeveless or wear sandals as evidenced by today’s outfit. I added a little pop of color to the black and white with a coral watch and ring. The brass statement necklace with matching earrings I’ve had for over 25 years and paired them with a hammered brass bangle bracelet.

I am so ready to wear white jeans.
What are you most looking forward to wearing this summer?

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
This morning I woke up blessed but stressed which is not the norm for me. Before driving into work I stopped at Middletown Car Care to check on the status of “Miranda”, Tayair’s old car. We took it in last week for a diagnosis to determine if is was worth having it serviced and then given to Malik or not serviced and left on the lot to be sold. I don’t like being stressed or carrying a burden so I am going to relax, take a deep breath, exhale and then release it into the atmosphere.
Friday Eve and it’s not very Springy, it’s overcast and cloudy, a “jeans and t-shirt” type of day, but since I can’t wear that to work it’s a “two-tone dress” type of day.
How do you release stress?

I am stronger than my stress!
These legs really need some sun!
Earrings were a gift from an IBM manager that I supported in 1983!
Necklace was purchased from Flea Market vendor and then I used nail polish to add color to the stones

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
When I saw this top at Goodwill I knew I had to get it because of all the colors, it would work with almost anything in my closet. There was just one slight problem…it’s very low cut in the front and I knew hubby would not let me out of the house in it.
It just hung in my closet…that was until yesterday after reading a post by a fellow blogger, Jean of all Trades…I am now wearing it backwards!!!
I am glad that I kept the shirt but more importantly, I am thankful for bloggers who come up with great ways to re-fashion clothing and jewelry! This necklace was a $1.00 find at the Flea Market and I used nail polish to give the stones some color.

Remember those cute kids from the ’90’s group, Kriss Kross, they wore their clothes backwards too – everything old is new again!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Now that the holidays are over and everyone is back to school and work we are now looking forward to the first major snow storm of the year. If I had it my way it wouldn’t hit until late March and then a quick thaw straight to Spring! I hope your Hump Day is progressing nicely and that you are not trying to cram 5 days of work into 3, but if you are, stop…take a deep breath and say, “the weekend is almost here!”
Belt or not?
I didn’t wear it to work because I felt it would take away from the necklace, what do you think?
