Happy 4th of July (a few days late!)

Wow!  It has been so long since I've posted that I do not even know if anyone will even read this anymore.  I have been either out of town or out of power for the past couple of weeks.  I hope you had a great fourth of July, and I look forward to posting regularly again...unless of course the power goes out again after the sever storms they are calling for today (sigh!)

We had a quiet fourth of July (seeing as we had just gotten our power back and needed a day to recover from being without for so long).  We normally travel out of town but this year we stayed in town and caught two firework shows while standing in the same spot!  Pretty cool!  What was  definitely NOT cool....the weather!  Suuuuuper hot!!!!!

This or That: Bright or Printed Bottoms

So I really wanted to wear my pink pants for this seeing as I have been saving them for a special occasion.  However, since I was going to a high school graduation yesterday I knew my bottoms had to be a skirt.

Skirt (Marshalls), Cardigan (Anne Taylor Loft) Purse (Charming Charlie), Flats (Payless)

I think I wear this skirt like once a week.  It is my favorite!!!!!

It has adorable buttons on the pockets that you cannot see is this pic sadly.

I wore this to work, to a high school graduation, and then back to work for a meeting.  Oh yeah, also wore this to grab Vietnamese for dinner with the hubby!  Yesterday was a long day!

This or That: Tribal or Flowers

For Wednesdays style challenge I chose this skirt to represent tribal.

The colors are not very tribal but the print is to me!  Here is what I wore with it.

 Skirt (H & M) Shirt (Uniqlo), Purse and earrings (Charming Charlie), Shoes (a little shop at the beach a couple summers ago).

I wore this to work.  I thought the bright colors would make me have more energy since I am still not feeling well.  Last night we went on a boat dinner cruise with my husbands office.  It was really nice!!

Tues This or That = postponed due to virus :-(

Sadly (or not so sadly since I really enjoyed the rest) I spent all of yesterday in my jammies at home.

This clearly means that I did not put on any pair of shoes so the Platforms or Flats decision will be postponed for Saturday!

In the meantime after two years of debating I finally purchased myself some converse shoes on Sunday afternoon.

I purchased the light blue pair (which I prefer to call mint, a because they appear more mint and b because I believe the five and a half shoe there was meant for me!!!

Back to work today so get ready for my next post of tribal or flower.....

I know the suspense is killing you!!!!!!

Which did I choose?!

Fashion Challenge: Solid Brights

I have caught some sort of virus, so I have been feverish with a sore tummy all day.  Thankfully, I wore brights today!  I think the whole world just feels better when you are adorned in bright colors!

Shoes (Shoe Carnival), Tank Top (Old Navy), Clutch (Charming Charlie), Dress (Target)

Unfortunately, my photography (aka the hubby) was not able to take photos of me tonight.  So, this was the best I could do with the camera timer.

FASHION CHALLENGE

I am really excited to participate in the This or That Trends Fashion Challenge this week!

Stay tuned!

I heart a denim jacket.

 Obviously, I love to wear this denim jacket.

I love the deep dark denim shade!

I think a denim jacket is a perfect piece for spring and fall!

 Skirt (Old Navy), Top (H & M), Jacket (New York & Company), Shoes (Sears), Necklace (Gifted from my sister-in-law who always finds the neatest jewelry for me when she travels!)

Above is a detailed picture of the print of this skirt (which also happens to be one of my favorites!)

I wore this to work on a Wednesday.  It was good for the office, but casual and relaxed enough for teaching my teenagers.
