Outfit of the Day, Fashion Over 50, Toothache, Chit Chat

Outfit of the Day, Fashion Over 50, Toothache, Chit Chat

HI EVERYONE!

I hope you are having a wonderful day! 

In this picture I am wearing Spanx Black Leggings from Dillards. 
The Black lace top is from Crackle Barrel Country Store and Restaurant.  They didn’t have a medium so I bought a large.  I probably should have returned it.  But it is lovely so I will try to make it work.  Because it is on the large side I wore another top underneath.




I have a long lace camisole underneath that I purchased from Target.  It is extremely long and this is the first time I am wearing it because of that.  It is also a racer back style. 



My black ankle boots are from DSW and the brand is Impo.  I have spoke about these on my YouTube channel.  They are so comfortable I could actually run in them if my life were in danger. 


I have a tooth that is giving me problems.  I have to go to an endodontist to have an old root canal reworked.  They will drill through my crown to get to the problem.  Sounds terrifying!  I am not looking forward to it but I don’t want this pain either.   I am on an antibiotic and my appointment isn't until next week.  Eek.

I have been trying to stay focused on some of my resolutions or goals for this year.  I do walk in the evenings if I get home in time or if the weather allows.  I need to read my Bible more than just in church.  I also need to concentrate on eating more vegetables.  How are you doing?  Comment below if you wish to chit chat.


HAVE FUN ON LIFE’S FASHION JOURNEY!

God Bless

Inspiration, Obsessed with Leopard, Cream and Camel

Inspiration, Obsessed with Leopard, Cream and Camel

We all get inspiration from different sources.  Sometimes I get inspiration from my faith and sometimes from my family.  Faith and family seem to go hand in hand.

Fashion inspiration can also come from different sources.  I love to search Pinterest for outfits.  Here are some different inspiration sources:

  • ·        Pinterest
  • ·        Magazines
  • ·        YouTube
  • ·        Instagram
  • ·        Bloggers
  • ·        People in your community


Many times when looking for one item, another item will come into your view finder. 
I was looking for some booties in saddle brown, luggage brown or camel.  A color I thought would go with everything this winter.  I went everywhere on this quest.  I still haven’t found what I am looking for.  But I did find a pair of awesome leopard booties at DSW.  But I didn’t buy them because they didn’t look good with my leggings.  My legs are really short so I have to be careful of anything that will cut them off and make them look shorter. 

BUT THOSE BOOTS INSPIRED ME.


I thought I would incorporate Leopard/Cheeta in my wardrobe by small pieces.  I shopped my closet and found two scarves and a short jacket.  So I didn’t want to buy too much more nor did I want to spend too much money. I also know too much Leopard can be overwhelming.  Leopard/Cheeta comes in many color combinations and pattern variations.  The inspiration boots for instance did not have any black in them.  They were all shades of brown and tan.  

I bought this Leopard purse by Karen Landry at Dillards.  I love it.  It has just enough black, brown and cream in it to make it classic.  It is also big enough for my Ipad.



I also bought two Leopard tops at Walmart.  The first one is a sweater cardigan.


The second one is sheer and has cut out details in the back yoke.  




Find inspiration to make getting ready in the mornings fun.  This last year I have been watching YouTube for hair and makeup ideas.  I want to stay vital even though I am 55 and will be 56 too soon.  I want to fight this battle against Mother Nature.  

Thanks for reading my blog.  Have fun on this Road of Life!
