IMG_7673IMG_7680Morning Everyone!I hope you had a great weekend! Boy, it has been hot here. I feel we have missed most of Spring and just entered right into Summer. 90 degrees and humid! Today, however, I have a collaboration to share with you that I am excited about. I suppose you know by now, I like jewelry. Unique, vintage, or one of a kind are my favorites. Accessories can certainly make an outfit, and this Larimar Blue Stone Cuff certainly adds to my look today. When I was contacted, I went back and forth a bit, as I wanted a cuff or bracelet to add to my jewelry collection. I do have small wrists though, and looking at them, I thought they would just fall right off my arm. Luckily, the metal adjusts to your wrist size, and I was able to select the one I wanted. This 3 band silver open cuff is elegant, classic  the Larimar stone certainly takes center stage. I love the 3 layers of silver with the beautiful sea blue stone in the center, its very striking!

mayblogHello everyone,Since it took another 11 hours to come home from our visit, I put this together before we left, imagining I might need a few days to recover. Today I wanted to share with you some of my favorite styles from this past month of May. It is hard to believe it is June. I feel like this year is going by quickly. On to the fashion notes, there are some great trends I love right now: espadrilles, off the shoulder dresses and shirts, all of the new denim styles, ( kick crops and cullotes) I am still searching for.Presently, I am in love with all things white, especially for the warm weather, as impractical as it may be some times. Jumpsuits and jumpers are on trend right now, and I will be sharing some jumper looks ( short jumpers) and dressing up the look. Today I am sharing looks that involve floral, off the shoulder, classic black white and red pairings, and military looks. I do love a romantic feminine style, but this takes on many looks.

 IMG_7492Hello Ladies,I hope you had a nice Memorial Day Weekend. ( those in the US) I have been visiting relatives and it took 11 hours by car with my 2 doggies to get there~ Once we were there, we had a good time. Good company, food, wine, sitting outside in the sunshine. The pups were little angels not crying or wimpering at the long drive. Patient little pups.Anyhow, I cannot take credit for this dress. Not exactly. It wasn't sent to me either, like part of the "Girl with the Traveling Pants"( ahem,dress). You saw it on Ana of Ana's Island Style, and I loved the geometric, almost 3 dimensional look with those blue-green and purple-blue hues striking a chord with me! Usually, I see something I like on someone, often my luck is it is out of stock, there is no more in my size, I can only find it in Iceland... you get the drift. However, the day I saw it on her, I decided I would buy it.

IMG_7540Hello Ladies and GentsGlad you are here for #turnngheadstuesday. I seem to be obsessing over white lately. You all know I Love Color but can also be captured by white with a neutral palette.*Absolutely! I love a nice clean white look, bright and modern, that look where the white stays white and there is no sign of dripped coffee on your clothes, or it has faded to a "winter white." So, I must take advantage of my new white items before I  eat, drink, or lay in the grass for that next summer concert. :-)

Urban OutfittersHello LadiesAs I mentioned in an earlier post this week, "What goes around, comes around." We know this to often be the case the fashion trends. I remember in college wearing a favorite pair of brown beaded lace up espradrille sandals. Where did they end up?  They remind me of summer, the ease of wear and the style that goes with anything, skirts, white pants, shorts. There are ones made of leather, fabric, and ones that lace up. There are flats, one with small heels and then there are wedges. I had mostly wedges when I could wear them. ...

IMG_7477Hello Ladies,I wanted to title this: My Off The Shoulder-Dont-Care-If -I'm-Older-Dress, but decided to keep it simple! :-)I debated about whether I should post my military jacket neutral look today or yesterday, Monday. I like to share the various styles and looks that are fun for me and my interest in wearing a ruched style in a striped dress,  fitted military jacket and cargo pants, white jeans with metallic slips ons or today's trendy look with the off the shoulder floral dress. I have also been buying a few more pairs of pants I have deemed comfortable enough for me to wear, and ones I have been eyeing, the straight ankle trouser. So, if you haven't seen the variety of looks, check out the links above.

 IMG_7380Hello Ladies and Happy Monday ( once Ive had my coffee)..Repeat after Me! I like neutrals yes indeed! ( I like neutrals yes indeed)Military jackets...just not in tweed (repeat)   ..   ( its too hot! :-)) just go with it!Like to know just how to style ( repeat)Read ahead ..might take awhile..Sound off.. 1..2..  Ha, Ok. I never said I do not possess a goofy sense of humour! Hey, I sing and talk to my dogs every day, right? I thought today I would change it up, as I like to do from time to time. Recently, I have worn stripes HERE,  this look, and more jeans. I know I have a feminine style, but there are days where I want to "dress down" but look put together and have fun with fashion wearing something different. I have had this military jacket from LOFT for years and haven't worn it much. I just decided, why not? I love the raw edges and the brass buttons, as well as the shape commanding a more feminine feel, not a boxy look.
