Happy Sunday…  Another uplifting church service ” Seven Saying of Christmas”.

The weather always impacts what I wear on Sundays or any other day.  I’m a bit of a “hot box” and prefer cooler weather.  Sometime I feel a little awkward  being sleeveless (especially this time of year) going to church.   Today I’m all JEWELED up (from my neck to shoes) I chose to wear a cardigan with my jewel neck dress.  Ironically the two look so much alike you would think its a two piece.  “IT’S NOT” 🙂   My shoes are adorned with jeweled detail as well.  I even wore hose again today, could I be coming a fan of pantyhose?  Don’t think so… 😉

Not much jewelry was needed since this dress has a built-in jeweled neckline.  I had some similar earrings that paired well.  I added my jeweled watch and some stretchy bangles.  Threw in a bag with a little fringe for some “whimsy” and my outfit is complete.

The Holidays are upon us, remember to spread some Old Fashion Holiday Cheer.  Merry Christmas!

Happy first Sunday of December. The Holiday Season is here…  What a great sermon today at church.  We had a praise and worship good time…  It looks like the cooler cold weather has left us for now.  Last week was sweater weather and today not so much 🙁 .  I chose this navy sheath dress with cutouts exposing the lining underneath.  Don’t you just love my      “Cinderella Shoes” ?  I’ve had my eyes on them for a while.  Its always good to wait for a sale 🙂 .  Hey, I even wore pantyhose today and I despise pantyhose LOL.  Wearing them added a more polished look.  Might as well go for it all.  I chose a gold colored pearl and earrings.  Pulled it all together with my bow detailed bag.

Hello! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Holiday, I sure did… I’m surprised I was able to fit into my skirt this morning.  And to end a perfect weekend “Baby It’s Cold Outside”, I’m loving it.

I saw this top about two years ago on Pinterest and I thought it was so ME. I knew right then I had to have it.  One day while browsing Charming Charlie what did I see, this polka dot top, it was mine .  I purchased the skirt a couple of months prior.  Talk about the perfect duo.

I debated about wearing a necklace, felt like it needed a little something extra. Added some “sheer dot” tights and I’m off to church.

Today is extra special.  My husband Ricky and I are celebrating 35 years of marriage.  Am I glowing or what?  He makes me happy 🙂 .  I included him in a photo today <3.

I’m always talking about its FALL, I have been waiting for a morning like today.  I was officially able to pull out my boots, LOL…  While I was out shopping for a birthday present for my husband (which is tomorrow) I stepped in NY & Co. and ran across this skirt.  By now you all know I’m all about the FRINGE.  I adore this skirt and it was perfect for pairing with boots.  I kept the top simple since the skirt is doing all the talking 🙂 .  I added a belt, statement necklace and played up my jewelry with a pop of color in the ring.   Here’s to hoping the cooler weather stays around.   Be Blessed…

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.

Happy Sunday its November!! I hope you all enjoyed that extra hour of sleep.  When I woke up this morning it was raining again. I immediately said to myself “Jeans”.  Wearing jeans is certainly different for me on a Sunday but it was just one of those days. I have been longing to wear this necklace I purchased some time ago. I’m all about the fringe trend that’s happening right now. Can’t wait to wear more…

My lace cardigan was purchased at a local resale shop, it was the perfect cover-up for my sleeveless top. I always accessorize with bracelets, my favorite the “glass bracelet”.  I think it all came together quite nicely :-)… Didn’t I wear Navy last week 😉 Oh well…

Welcoming this first Sunday of October with animal print… BLUE animal print and soft pants. I’ve always associated animal print with cooler weather. Even though we aren’t quite there our mornings and nights are very pleasant. It almost feels like “Fall” is in the air.  SO why not bring out the animal print. I admit the blue is different… but I like it.
I’m such a fan of the “soft pant” especially when they hug at the ankle. Talk about comfort…
Finishing the look-  silver heels, statement necklace and bangles. Let’s GO….

Feeling golden today… in my draped side knot frock. For those of us that don’t wear sample sizes.  😉 The side knot gently gathers at the waist to enhance your figure.

There is something to be said about this combination of colors that makes a statement. I tried this dress with several different shoes including the round toe and platform. But nothing quite said YES like this black pointed toe.   Although I’ve come to appreciate the round toe shoe but nothing and I repeat “nothing” speaks to me like a POINTED toe shoe.

My jewelry choice was fairly easy. I’ve had this necklace for a while, not sure where it was purchased, it’s perfect with this dress. Just like last week, I threw on some bangles and I was done. Don’t be afraid to accessorize, it works.

Out the door… first day of Fall. Transitioning into Fall attire will be a slow process in TEXAS. We are still facing ninety degree weather. So we won’t be pulling out the sweaters anytime soon, at least I won’t LOL…

This light weight cream and black lace dress is a gradual start to my Fall, its allows me to stay cool as this heat continues. In keeping with the color palette I accessorized with pearls and a bag of the same color. My shoes bring it all together. Happy First Day of Fall to all…    There is BEAUTI in everything, find it…
