It’s a wonderful time of year because the humidity is gone, the air is crisp and life is worth living again! This was a fabulous embroidered kimono jacket that I got months ago. The tunic dress doesn’t really match match but that is by design! I have a tendency to over match so this is me being understated. No, really.

The cut on this jacket is a classic so I can probably wear it at 70. Until then, it’s just a fun embroidered item to throw on and have fun with!

The booties from Freebirds Stores are my newest piece of rebellion wear. They are not a boot but not a sandal yet not a heel but not a flat. Love the nonconformist attitude!

I am truly looking forward to the holiday season more than ever! With everything going on in the world and politically speaking – if you know what I mean! These days you’ve got to grab a little joy wherever you can get it! My circle is getting smaller and smaller as it is growing increasingly difficult to have real, deep friendships with people who have any level of understanding as to the world stage. People do not read or research anything anymore. They mostly parrot what they hear others say. It’s a bit depressing. I recently met a young guy at a car rental place, and he stated, “It’s getting hard to know who you can talk to about real things anymore. Nobody wants to learn how I make my money, they just want me to give them some of it.” The kid was 26 and had made a lot of money in Lightcoin and such. ( Yes he showed me his trading balances and accounts on his phone.) He based his investing on Biblical prophecy and we shared the same view points about most everything. When I meet someone like this I think, wow, someone I can actually talk to! It’s rare and special. In the meantime, clothes and fun stuff take the mind off of some of the harsh realities we face today so I will just stay over here in my corner, mind my own business and keep my harsh but true political and spiritual viewpoints to myself! Oh, and blog some really cute outfits. There’s that.

Gardening is so much fun to me! This Sunday we went to pick up more plans for the yard because although planting season is not during 95 degree days…plant stores have a lot of things at 70% off! The plant store is my happy place. I love wandering around and dreaming of the possibilities. Great landscaping can make an average home amazing! Landscaping is everything. I wish all of my neighbors understood this. When I see a messy yard, it makes me wonder what the inside of the home looks like.

I literally felt sad for a skinny, crooked Crepe Myrtle tree that was laying on the concrete. She was unable to stand upright because she was growing crooked in her pot. She was 6 feet tall, but only $9.00 and was in the very back with the other uglies. I felt so sorry for her, that I brought her home and named her Gertrude. For the past two weeks, we refer to her as Gertrude and share in the daily watering. You really should not plant anything when it’s 4,000 degrees outside, but it’s a bit shady in the spot I chose and decided to risk it. Gertrude is now part of the family and we hope she makes it!

I do not think I will even be done with fixing up my yard. It’s too big and my standards are too high. My personal goal is to eventually not be able to see any fence! It’s rough because the plants that are the most hardy and grow the fastest, are typically also the most boring! I think moving forward, I need to focus on one area at a time. Oh, and there is my outfit.

My Sunday outfit consisted of a Biya top and my funky new Freebird booties. To me, the Biya top is a t-shirt. A fancy one. Other people would consider a top that nice to be inappropriate for garden shopping, but there was to be brunch involved as well. It’s not like I was going to plant them in that top. (Digging the actual hole is my husband’s job.) I am simply the landscape architect.

My husband is not a huge fan of my rebellious booties, but that’s ok. 🙂
