worn Feb.10, 2013

What can I say? I like clothes from Target. And bubble necklaces. Bubble necklaces add an extra touch to any outfit. They make plain pieces instantly cute.

File this one away for your fall/winter inspiration. The colors are more winter than spring, but I wanted to share this outfit anyway.

I'm still struggling to post over here, but maybe, just maybe one day there will be a  little extra time and I will catch up. Who am I kidding? It's May 1 and I'm pulling outfit pics from February. Anyway, this was fun to wear. A long time ago I would not have dared to wear this-  it doesn't match, lol. Oh how times have changed.

This is another pinterest inspired outfit. Could I get dressed without pinterest? Here's the inspiration:

 

 

I just swapped out the colors. If you have been following my very infrequent posts, I'm happy to report that my parents are doing better. Thanks for your prayers and comments.

I copied this look straight from this pin. I had so many plans for these jeans, but didn't get to wear them much. I think they are getting retired for the spring and summer, so maybe in the fall I'll try to get the other outfits together. But I may be buying new jeans by then- I've lost 15 pounds and a whole size, so I doubt they fit well. Baggy clothes are just as frustrating as ones that fit too tight. I'm not complaining about the loss, but I need to do a closet overhaul now. I guess that's a good problem.

Hey there! I'm happy to say that slowly but surely both parents are improving. They are still requiring a good bit of assistance, so I've had to be absent from here to keep things going between my household and theirs. Maybe soon I'll be able to catch up some outfit posts.

 

As you can see from the date I'm a good bit behind now, but you can still use this for early spring inspiration. I got inspiration for this outfit from this pin. I could have matched more closely if I had worn my leopard shoes and this necklace.

Where have I been?

Hi all. March 1 my Daddy was admitted to the hospital following a heart attack. Two days later my  mother was admitted to the same hospital with heart related problems (she has an existing condition that medication is no longer helping). Three days later my Daddy was transferred to another town and hospital for a triple bypass. I don't live in the same town as my parents or the hospitals, so I've been on the road and all over southeast Georgia.

 

Needless to say, I have been doing well just to be dressed. Blogging about it wasn't even a consideration. My daddy is now home and recovering well. My mother is home too, but has a surgery ahead of her in two weeks. Please pray for my family. I'll pop in as time allows.

 

And I'll have to admit while I'm here, I purchased these pink jeans because of some outfits I saw on pinterest. I was really on a hunt for red, but decided these would do. I think they will be fun for spring.

Are you making any efforts to "go green" this year? We have stepped up what we put in the recycle box vs the trash and are actually creating less trash and recyle now that we are eating less processed foods and more whole foods.

 

Oh, this was really about the sweater, but it doesn't hurt to be considerate of the earth and our resources either.

 

This was a fun outfit with the bright pop of green over the grey. I'm really into sweaters layered over button up shirts with rolled cuffs. And bright sweaters are even better!
