FASHION






Hot damn we made it to Friday!  I for one am giddy with that fact:)

I finally got it together to do a small fashion post....well it's nothing earth shattering..... but spring and summer are just around the corner and there are some things that I find myself buying over and over.

What that means is.....at my age I have narrowed it down to a color palate that allows me not to spend too much on clothes.  

No secret there right?  Neutrals sprinkled with some black and white.

You have heard me preach about this before so hang with me for a minute.  Jeans.....black, white and blue.  My staples for everyday wear.  What's better than going to the Gap and loading up on these to get me through the next few seasons.



I bought these cute ankle flare jeans and I plan on cutting the hem off for a more casual look!  Since they are cheap it's no big deal when I'm tired of them:)

I also bought the sleeveless T in every color.  I'll be happy when it's 90 degrees here in Georgia!

White jeans are pretty much what I wear almost everyday in the summer.  I can dress them up or go more casual.  If you don't have a denim shirt you need to get one because they are great for layering.

Look at me getting all bossy.


The white section in my closet is the largest!

Surprise huh!  

Every year I go through my t shirts and discard any that have spots on them and just replace with new ones.  And I definitely need that cute black and white bag right!

So you are now thinking that I am a pretty cheap shopper but we are forgetting one small detail.....

SHOES!  Yeah.....something you can always buy when you don't feel like trying on clothes!

I have all of these below....


All from Nordstroms.

I love these with anything!

I just bought these and they are definitely on heavy rotation!

I bought these [on sale] and from day one they are so incredibly comfortable.  I wish they still had the black in my size.

I have all of these also:)
From Nordstroms.


I just recently bought these to add a little fun to my wardrobe.....I don't often wear heels but loving that block heels are in style. 

I have these from last year and now they come in suede.  

I bought these because I have always loved the classic feel of a loafer and this modern version will look great when I want to be just a little more professional!

These are in my cart right now!
From Nordstroms.


I'm thinking these would look good with white jeans....not as harsh and black.

These just look incredible comfy and when the temps get really hot in Atlanta I'll need some openness!

How cute!  I think we all need a little blush in our life!

If I pretty much wear all of these why are there so many shoes in my closet?  Every time I start to weed them all out I get  nervous like I can't just have 9 pairs of shoes.....what kind of girl would I be?

So Sunday is my birthday.  Apparently middle age is from 45-65 and I guess 66 is "old age".....WTF.

Crikey I am not happy about this at all. I'm not gonna lie or sugarcoat it.....getting old sucks.

There I said it.

SUMMER FASHION





The weather is changing and I have cute summer clothes on my mind.  I might have said this before but spring only last a hot minute here in Atlanta.

One second we are wearing long sleeves and the next we are sweating.......taking scissors to those sleeves.

I have purchased a few things lately and I discovered a new brand of jeans that rocked my world!  You are probably wondering how that may be but I have a small waist and a rather generous behind so when I find good fitting jeans I want to spread the world:)



While we were in High Point my roomie Jennifer was styling the cutest clothes and I realized I might need to step up my game from all black [actually all of my team was styling].  A little color never hurt anybody so I went out and bought this top! Whoa....so edgy with blue....ha ha

Jeans  Love this fit!  I got mine 25% off!

I always like to start with a white blouse and a good pair of jeans....then I can dress it up accordingly.  

Clutch  I just discover this little store....bargains!


I NEED some pink sneakers in my life!  Plus I like that they are "double decker" for some height!


I'm not really a dress person because to be honest....my legs are so white [OK...wrinkled too] but I do like this one because of the cute sleeves....and it's black:)


OK...let's be honest.....I could not wear these shorts [mine would have to be longer] but this cute top from J Crew Factory is a winner.


I did buy this top [on sale now!] and wore it the other night.....I love it and so comfy!  I also bought the shoes and comfortable from the first minute!

Shoes  Love!


This cute top from J Crew Factory was 26.50....steal huh!


More comfy shoes.....and the color goes with everything.  I like the slip on style because of the ventilation...my feet get sweaty in the summer:)

What have y'all bought lately?  I always have a hard time drawing the line about what is appropriate for someone my age [old] to wear......I want to be comfortable but not look like I am wearing my pajamas out in public.

I am sure that day will come:)  If you see me doing that I give you permission to point and laugh.

I've got some good news y'all......I'm leaving for Boulder on Sunday to consult on another house!  

I am pretty darn excited with so many ideas in my head that I can't wait to share with you and them!

More on that project later cause today I have a fashion post.  What?  Yep......now that the holidays are over all the stores are pushing some great spring clothes!

It's no secret that I like to dress similar to my decorating style which means a good foundation sprinkled with a few trends to keep it relevant....:)

Take a look.....

Starting at Banana Republic because I think they consistently update their basics and have a reasonable price point.  Plus 40% off on a regular basis right!

Win....win.








Last year I bought some white flair jeans at the end of the season on sale.  These shoes have a block heal so I can wear them [3 hour window for sure though!] and I found those cute earrings at Club Monaco for 30% off right now!

Since most days I am pretty casual this outfit appeals to me!


I saw some camo sneakers at Club Monaco for over 300.00 and thought I know I can do better that that!  These are Keds and I will be ordering!


More casual wear because that is definitely 80% of my wardrobe!




Let's circle back to the white flair jeans......love this top and the blue bag!




Again.....jeans because it's a no brainer.....




I love everything on this page and that Iphone cover is definitely on my list!


A few other things I liked.....
This Club Monaco black shirt cause it could definitely dress up the white flair jeans!







And there you have it!  Maybe some shopping this weekend?

I'm in the final season of Mad Men....[I think I have 5 left] and the depression is setting in.  Even though I want to slap the hell out of Don Draper saying "get it together dude".....I'm gonna miss him.
