Hello Ladies! Today is a Special Edition of My Refined Style Linkup! It has been One Year! I have been happy to co-host with these lovely ladies and share my style and thoughts on fashion. Today I will talk a bit about what elements make mine a "Refined Style". How do I refine my style?  By now, I am sure those of you who follow me, or know me, realize that I love dresses. The ease and comfort of a dress, a great fit, can't be beat! You probably also know that I love to find unique accessories. I do...

 IMG_8611Hello LadiesHere we are, nearly the end of August. Hard to believe, as it seems I was just at the beach!  Today I styled a rust printed romper from HM by wearing a crisp, white fitted blazer, a unique suede statement necklace from Zara, and my favorite gladiator sandals.  Just the name of the garment, "Romper" connotes a memory of childhood for me, with the TV program, " Romper Room". This show was from 1953 ( before my time) to 1994, and created basically a real kindergarten, with students saying the 'Pledge of Allegiance" and then going into the classroom.

IMG_8448IMG_8452Hello Ladies!I hope things are going well, and it is hard to believe that August is going this fast and soon Fall will be approaching. My favorite season without a doubt. All the things I associate with it, the mountains, hiking, camping, trees changing color, cool, crisp air, pumpkin spice everything! Charlotte has cooler temps really thoughout Sept-October, much different from Pittsburgh, where I used to live. Sept was when fall clothing was worn, October, coats. Here in Charlotte, I might just begin to wear a light jacket at the end of Oct-Nov.  I thought I would take a ride out to Mooresville, a bit of an older town, with its own charm, and I loved this vintage mural.

IMG_8431Hello LadiesI don't know about you, but I love to iron. Give me a big stack of clothes and let me do my thing! I'm kidding, Im kidding! I am sure there might be a few ladies that do enjoy it, perhaps it is relaxing for some, like taking a bubble bath. However. I like to decide what I am wearing, get dressed and go! I like to feel like I have getting ready down to a bit of a science. So, when Foxcroft NY, contacted me about collaborating , I knew after seeing the Taylor Non-Iron Shirt Dress, that would be my choice, and what women could use in their closet. As through my experience, most busy women want less hassle when getting ready in the morning. So comfortable, the shirt dress is one of my favorites for easy dressing!IMG_8436In addition to the appeal of this iron-free shirt dress, was the color (Serenity)as one of the Pantone's Colors of the Year. I initially chose the pink version, however it was not available until October. No worries, as  I decided then, to combine the colors of the year (  Rose Quartz:) and ( Serentiy) for this put together look. I took out my pink rose scarf, added my vintage pale pink circular vintage brooch and also added pink champagne tones with my Rockport pretty floral pointed flats.  I wanted to combine the best of both worlds! For added texture, my  faux crocidile Brahmin Bag would do the trick. . Yes, I would be happy with blue, as my recent  linen dress purchase  is long, and a darker shade, so there was enough of a difference to "say yes to the dress!" I needed to add more blue into my wardrobe, so this would be a great piece.

 Whats on your Summer Bucket List? Is there something you want to do that you haven't yet?Let's see.. I have gone on a 60 foot schooner sailboat,  been to the Summer Pops Symphony series, went to the Outer Banks where I saw Wild Horses as well as going to a beach I've never been to before. We are going to rent a boat sometime in August when the pups in their little life jackets can go with us and the heat isn't unbearable. Just getting ready to go out soon...

IMG_8316Hello ladiesWho doesn't love to sleep in on some lazy Sundays? Whether its with the girlfriends or your significant other, going to brunch, for me, is always a fun way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon! Mmmm. Visions of strawberry pancakes and mimosas dancing in my head. My husband and I love to try different places here in Charlotte and one of those for brunch is Bonefish Grill. I most often get a peach belinni with my eggs benedict or  a spot o" tea with my strawberry pancakes. So today,  I took out my hot rollers as the heat generally makes my fine hair just fall, but keep them in for 15 minutes and it curls like a charm.. Off to brunch!
