A Good Day…and Yes, More Animal Print

A Good Day…

     Sunday was a good day.  I did the unthinkable, and was under the weather so I took a nap in the middle of the day.  By nap, I mean I was pretty much in bed until about 3:00

     I didn’t cook, or clean, or make it to church.  The 40 million milligrams of vitamins finally kicked in late in the day, so I did manage to get dressed, and make it to the movies to see “Man of Steel.”

     That movie wasn’t my personal pick, but it was my husband’s choice and I am bend-y like that on some issues.  It was actually wonderful and I loved it, though!

     Apparently there is a never ending supply of old animal print clothing in my closet, because when I was digging for a missing shoe, I noticed this top from two summer’s ago hanging in the closet, squished in between two sweaters.  

     It has a side tie, and actually a tiny chest area button which I obviously neglected to use. It’s all good though…I have on an animal print bra from Victoria’s Secret so who cares. Being a bit budget conscious, I got the top on-the-cheap from 

TJ Maxx!

     The matching mani-pedi combo was the result of a spa day from earlier in the week.  I absolutely am not progressive enough to do the pointy nail thing, and never will. Never, like never. Well, unless it’s part of a Halloween costume or I get a part in a vampire movie.

 

 

I can also brag, and say that the boyfriend jeans are totally brand new and were a super good bargain! 

   Actually, by “boyfriend jeans” what I mean to say, is that I really couldn’t find any I liked under $200, so I just bought a pair of Democracy Jeans about three sizes too large from Ross for $23.00…but hey, once you throw on a Michael Kors belt, it’s all good.

I just wanted some baggy-ish stretchy summer jeans and it was really hard trying to find some that were NOT made with a crazy high waist line. A high waist looks great on very few people, and I won’t be doing that, either. 

   I remember that my mom always wore Calvin Klein jeans with high heels and I ran into quite a few pairs of those while jean shopping.  I wondered if Calvin cleared out a storage facility from 1985…or did they actually manufacture more for the current trend? 

    After the movie, we went home to enjoy our Sunday evening spiritual ritual of watching Hal Lindsey and then Irwin Baxter teach their bible prophecies and speak on current world affairs, on the Daystar Network. It’s always really heavy stuff! 

    …and that was Sunday!

I AM KORS for the HOLIDAYS

I AM KORS for the HOLIDAYS

     My brother and I met for lunch today, and also went to pick up a coconut cake for the Thanksgiving Holiday Dinner I am planning.
 
     It was a great day to snap a few pictures because I got to use my new Michael Korshandbag today which was an early birthday gift!
     The watch is Michael Kors as well. I wear it all the time and love it.   The black patent platforms are by Jessica Simpson and are comfortable for hours!
     I love the color of the Michael Kors bag, it is called “persimmon” and is a natural orange tone that seems to blend with a lot.
     I love to buy random new pieces that can flush in with things you already own. News flash… everything you wear every day can’t be brand new! To me, the idea is to build and grow your wardrobe without going broke.
    
    Sidebar:  I  never ever watched Sex in the Citybut the one time or so it happened to be on before I could change the channel, I thought it was ridiculous that Carrie was buying $400 shoes but then worried about her rent getting paid or money to go to dinner! Ugh! In your 20’s I suppose, but her character was clearly in her 40’s!
 

 
     So my love affair with Kors handbags continues! One in every style and color would be fabulous, however my new persimmon Hamilton will do!
