Spring florals


 Top (Kohls), Pants (Marshalls), Shoes (Sears), Clutch (Charming Charlie's), Necklace (Silpada)

I am proud to say that my husband picked out this shirt for me while passing through the petite section in Kohls the other night.  I am glad that he did, because I do not know that I would have picked it up on my own.  I actually really like it too!  It makes me feel like spring time!

I wore this outfit for a Saturday afternoon of lunch and cards with several of my girlfriends.  It was a great day.  I would like to extend a special thanks to Karen for taking these photos!

Neutrals and Metals

 Shoes (Purchased in Turkey), Jeans (JC Penney), Purse (Charming Charlies), Tank (Old Navy), Cardigan (Anne Taylor Loft), Necklace (Silpada)

I have to tell you that this is my FAVORITE cardigan and my FAVORITE necklace.
My clone convinced me to buy this cardigan on one of our shopping expeditions!  It was a little more than I would spend on a piece of clothing, but she was right.  I have worn this so many times that it was TOTALLY worth it!
The husband gave me this necklace for Easter a few years ago.  I looove all the different types of metals in it.  It is so versatile!

Leave your guess in the comment section below and stay tuned to find out the answer :-).

Picture A Day: A piece of jewelry from your grandparents


I am pretty sure one of my grandparents gave me this cross necklace.  Below is the outfit that I wore it with.  PS Don't mind the scar, it is just a souvenir from the open heart surgery I had when I was four years old :-).

We Interrupt this Picture A Day for some Pink news!

So, I have always wanted to have a not so natural hair color be a part of my hair color.  As I approach 30 I decided to seize the day...and do it!!!
Subtly, of course.  I would not want to lose my minister job :-).
So, here I am easing into the pink.  I love it.  I think my hair stylist help me make an great subtle entrance into the world of pink hair :-).

I call this my professional pink look.

Now for the outfit I wore to get my pink....and my first gelato of the season later this evening.

Shirt, Cardigan, and Jeans (JC Penney), Shoes (Sears), Purse (Target),

Picture A Day: An outfit you wore on a special day


Dress (Charlotte Russe), Jacket (JC Penney), Shoes (Payless)

I wore this jacket for the first time when I was elected to serve on the Board of Trustees for a very special organization.  I felt that it was a special jacket for a special occasion.  For this particular outfit, I was just going to work :-).

Double Dose of Picture a Day

Since I did not post yesterday, here is your double dose picture a day.

First: a cute skirt

Skirt (H&M) Belt (Stein Mart) Boots (Charming Charlie's) Shirt (Gap) Scarf (gifted)

Sadly, this pic did turned out a lil' blurry, and I am not sure what my facial expression was about....so really you should focus on the skirt :-)

Second, picture a day: cute socks

I had these one under the boots :-).  I am not sure where they came from, but I heart them!
