Sunday Social: Grey & Blue Pinstripe Fit-and-Flare

sunday-16th

Hello everyone!  Remember last week I said we had a wedding to attend today following church.  Beautiful wedding.  Little did I know it was going to be OUTSIDE.  I knew beforehand it was casual.  I chose a dress that I thought would work for both church and a casual wedding.   Normally one would not wear linen in Fall but this is Texas, it was in the 80’s. My body says it’s still Summer no matter the season.  There was a lady sitting next to me and she said: “I knew we were going to be outside so I wore my summer dress” (she had on a rayon black, white and yellow dress) I told her “we live in Texas, those rules don’t apply”.  Some were wearing shorts (smart)!  The bride and her bridesmaids were barefoot, what does that tell ya? LOL.
By the time I got around to taking photos I was completely melted 🙂 .   Like linen does, it wrinkles.  Like I said, I was melting LOL.
I wanted to have a bit of bling,  I wore a multi-stone statement necklace.  Added small earrings, a single bangle and silver watch.  My BAG today is  “old” wait until you see who it’s by.  Since I was attending a wedding I wanted something small with sparkle to compliment my casual dress.  It’s ok to mix and match dressy and casual whenever and however you like.  Who likes to wear shredded jeans and sparkly high heels? ME! 😉

Happy Sunday!  Today’s outfit consist of this  full pinstriped skirt.  Who doesn’t love a full skirt.  It certainly fits my body type and all other body types too.  It kind of makes you want to twirl… 🙂

I really adore this scuba like fabric, its so light weight and comfortable.  And with this intense heat I’m all about comfort.  Keeping with being cool, I chose this sleeveless blouse with lose tie.  I wore a thin chained necklace, it didn’t photograph because it was hiding behind the tie. Something else you can’t see in the photo are my awesome cuff earrings.  You can also wear a cuff earring on one ear and a stud or something else in the other ear.

My shoe of choice was this strappy blue sandal, some bangles and funky magazine hand bag.

Style Tip:  I love to mix in an element of surprise and my magazine hand bag does just that, SURPRISE!!!

Oh! and Happy Father’s Day to all the awesome Dads out there… especially to my husband and son.

Happy Sunday to all.  Our family has had a very busy weekend.  This morning was absolutely beautiful.  I just love the crisp feel of a Fall morning . I didn’t want to over dress (I’m a walking hotbox).  This pinstripe two piece set is VERY OLD, it’s actually a 3 piece set it has pants too (that I’ve never worn).  I can’t remember where I purchased it from either. “Old is the new, New”.  Did I just coin a phrase… 🙂

Gray is one of those colors being a cross between black & white that goes well with other colors like Pink and Purple.  I almost work a purple shoe, next time.  For that tailored look Pinstripe is always a good option. My necklace was a gift from my daughter, it goes well with this neckline.
