Stripes

Stripes are a complicated pattern.  Especially for someone who has a larger chest.  I have found some stripes work and some don't.  But it all depends on the size of the stripes, the cut and color and the fabric.  I recently purchased a Gap gray and white striped blazer.  I really stepped out of my box here because normally I don't wear such light colors (I love me my jewel tones) and I am still a little new to the stripes world.  I really like it, the blazer fits perfectly and I think the navy colored t-shirt I have on makes me feel more comfortable wearing something so light.  What do you think of stripes?  How do you wear your stripes?

Crabbiness

Hello everyone! Sorry I missed yesterday, trust me no one wants to see what I looked like yesterday.  But today is a new day, thank goodness!  Even though my outfit is dressy and has a pop of color, I'm still crabby.  A couple of my girlfriend's agree, it's been a crabby past few weeks.  Hopefully, the start of a new month will snap us back into reality and we can feel fabulous again...because we are in fact fabulous.  Are you crabby right now?  What do you do to feel fabulous?

Rain rain go away

Happy Friday! It's a rainy gloomy day today.  I tried to not let the gloom get me down and wear a bright color.  I chose purple today.  This is a shirt I got from Express the other day.  On sale for $22!  I love me a sale. Do you only shop sale items, or do you allow yourself to splurge a little bit now and then?  What do you splurge on?

Daily Deal

The only items I buy full price are items under $30 and bras.  I don't skimp on bras.  You absolutely get your money's worth.  I went to Intimacy to get a bra fitting about a year and a half ago and it changed my life! Not only did look like I immediately dropped 15 pounds, I was able to fit better in my clothes and not sag.  I went into their store wearing a 38DD and walked out wearing a 34G.  What a difference!  The prices just about made me pass out.  But when I looked at my tatas all high and dry and found out that I could get the bras altered for FREE for the life of the bra, I decided to go for it!  Have you ever been a professional bra fitter before?

Just as a side note...this is the little sad face I had to leave this morning.  He was scared of the thunder.  Wish I could have stayed in bed like he gets to all day!

Thrifting Thursday

I decided not to show my outfit today because I went thrift store shopping so I didn't have on anything significant.  I did pick up some good Spring/Summer outfit staples today while I was thrifting.  What do you think?

 Daily Deal

After spending so much money buying retail eyeglasses I discovered Coastal.com.  They sometimes give free pairs of glasses away all you have to do is pay for the lenses.  The deal below is good for a pair of glasses for $49 (including the Rx lenses) plus free shipping.  I got my current pair of glasses for $30, and I LOVE them.  They even have a really good tutorial on how to measure your face for glasses.  Try them out!

Wintery Spring

This weather is so confusing.  I don't know if I should wear boots with no tights, tights with shoes, or no tights?  I decided on wearing tights with shoes, that way I didn't look too "wintery" since it is Spring and it's about 68 degrees.  Do you  have specific "rules" you follow when it comes to boots, skirts and tights?

At least it's sunny

Today is still winter, but the sun is shining, so I'll take it!  I picked up this top at JCP on Friday.  See how little I paid for it here.  Again, JCP is worth checking out, with their new prices and overhaul of their tag system, you'll find some great deals!

Hello Winter....

Well winter is back.  I knew I shouldn't put my boots and coat away yet.  I have worn this outfit before but this time I changed up the accessories and added some additional colors to this outfit.  What do you think of these colorful accessories?
