Happy Sunday. You know you live in Texas when you experience two seasons in two days, LOL! I could have sworn it was summer on Saturday and today, well… I will leave it to your imagination.
When my mother passed away we didn’t keep a lot of her clothing. We gave them away to a family friend. We kept a few pieces, which I have in my possession.
Today’s outfit includes two of her things. My dress and purse. My mother has been gone for over a decade and this black sheath dress has never gone out of style. I wear it once or twice a year. No matter my size it always fits. Today I added a belt to take it in a bit (it was a little big). I also added a long mesh kimono for a more chic look.
Another Style Option: For a more tailored look, I could have added a blazer.
In addition to the belt, I wore a red and black scarf tied into a headband. It was so windy today, a headband seemed like a good idea. I kept the red going in two jewelry pieces, my necklace and earrings. Instead of the usual black or red pump, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to wear these black ankle boots with a RED flower applique, so chic! The pointy toe gave me life! 😉 .
My BAG as I mentioned was one of my mother’s. It’s a simple black cloth clutch (very old). It also has a short gold hand chain attached inside. I love how old things can become new again with a little ingenuity!
There is BEAUTI in everything, find it…
