14 Apr Turning Heads #Linkup :Black and Red, Instead.
You know I am a fan of Zara. This is from last years collection, a red circle skirt.
These bow flats remind me of Kate Spade,but are Target at a fraction of the cost!
A new black alligator clutch by one of my favorite clutch/ LA purse maker JJ Winters
Nothing like some antique inspired jewelry from 1928 and black fillegree antique earrings from Etsy.
Hello Ladies!
It’s that time of week again! Linkup time!! I am so grateful to all of the ladies here who have participated and shared their style in order to make this a fun and successful linkup! I think we all need to linkup, kick back and either enjoy a cup of coffee of glass of vino depending on what time of day it is where you live!
When looking blankly at my closet-I think we all do this, I decided there has been a plethora of pastels I have been showing you, it was time to change gears and bring out a classic combination of red and black! I know I may have mentioned this story before, but I just laugh to myself as I buy yet another pastel garment only to picture my Eurythmics teacher on my shoulder saying “you would look great in pastels” when I was in college. I am not rebelling but I think she must have subconsciously made an impact and I have worn a fair amount of pastel blues, pinks, purples lately.
Now it is time to add this black sheer at the top-polka dot shell, with this #Zara ( yet again) flirty red circle skirt. I was ready for a bit of a change!

Shauna of Lipgloss and Lace has this amazing pretty pastel print. Check out her Charming mint bag. Raise your glass to Shauna!
Not only do i love Zhenya’s backdrop of Being Zhenya but the print on this dress is stunning! The gold brocade is sophisticated!! Show the love!

Posted at 13:04h, 15 AprilThanks Trina!! I needed a change from pastels.. soon I will be bombarding everyone with florals!! hehe. I am all about the cat eye! Funny thing I bought a pair of Coach ( that I wont pay for in store anymore) and found better glasses and deals on-line! The ones from the vineyard post are prescription sunnies( cat eye). Enjoy your day!! xx

Posted at 09:36h, 15 AprilWhew! I made it….better late than never! LOVE the red skirt, and will you please do a post that tells us how we can get our hair as perfect-looking as yours seems to be all the time? I look like I’ve been electrocuted most of the time!
Jess Jannenga
Posted at 11:02h, 15 AprilWe do both have a great/goofy sense of humour! I love it. You haven’t seen me in the morning with my hair turban after some restless sleep! I could do a post.. but one thing is hot rollars as my hair is poker straight naturally. And no electric currents running though your hair!

Posted at 03:29h, 14 AprilWhat a lovely look! I was always thought that as a radhead you should never wear bright red ( I was natural strawberry blonde as a child and young woman) But you proved the rulemakers wrong!
Jess Jannenga
Posted at 10:56h, 14 AprilThank you Irmin! “They” say redheads shouldnt wear red or pink, and I don’t listen to those rules! lol. I have a fair amount of both in my closet. Glad you like the look, have a wonderful day.xx
