New Boyfriends (jeans that is)

coat & flats: thrifted, blouse: target, jeans: cato



diy zebra earrings

favorite burgundy flats

Happy Friday! I finally found a replacement for my massively too big boyfriend jeans. I have been looking for months. Now, I have to tell you. The boyfriend jean silhouette looks best on hipless girls. I am not. I have hips. My original pair of boyfriend jeans looked great as long as you didn't notice that they were safety pinned on because the waist was about three inches too big. I can't even count how many pairs of jeans I have tried on in my search. I wanted a pair that were skinnyish - too baggy at the ankles just looks silly. I finally found these at Cato (where else). They are actually just skinny jeans a size up and they are perfect. The looser silhouette, the lighter color and distressed look are exactly what I was looking for. So I paired them with my silky black top and pink coat for a day spent dealing with tire issues. We have had to purchase six tires in the last week. SIX! Thankfully now both cars are drivable. (We haven't even been able to drive one for the last month until we could afford to replace all the tires. And then we had a belt snap or some such thing in the other one. Craziness) Anyway. Thankfully God provided as he always has. You would not believe how many times we have had money show up just when we needed it to be able to fix our cars. Truly God is good.

Hope y'all have the best weekend ever.

Lavender and Teal

leather jacket & blouse: walmart, sweater: old navy, jeans: cato, flats: thrifted




Happy Thursday, ladies! My sweater is actually lavender in case you were wondering. It looks white in the top two pictures. Go figure. Clearly I am not a photographer with a fancy schmancy camera. I have a point and shoot that is several years old. ;)

I have to admit that I am just not really feeling blogging right now. I am doing better than last year. I stopped in November and didn't post again until April, I think. I am just not a huge fan of winter and these last two have been particularly trying. Right now I am doing really well to function on a day to day basis and frankly I haven't been getting dressed unless we have to leave the house. So, not really an exciting life around here. So. I haven't actually linked up with a linky party in two weeks and truthfully I probably won't for the rest of this week either. I do really appreciate those of you who follow along and I want you to know that your comments mean the world to me. As ridiculous as it sounds, y'all are the only human contact I have outside of my family and the checker at walmart. ;) Small town, no social life outside of church. Blah. That makes me sound so pitiful, and I'm really not. So I am just going to quit now. I hope y'all are having a wonderful week!

Unmemorable except for a Grammy Scarf


coat: thrifted, blouse: target, skirt: dillards, boots: payless


what is my child doing?!
Happy Wednesday, friends! I am pretty sure that my kiddo is fighting a bad guy. I don't actually remember. In fact, I remember wearing this outfit, but I don't remember when or for what. So. I am wearing one of my grammy's many silk scarves. That always makes my day.

Hope you are having a wonderful week!

Happy Yellow and Easy Clothes





Even though it is still pretty hot, I am at that point where I don't really want to run around in a tank and shorts. This time of year, I really enjoy being able to mix in my fall pieces with my summer ones. I love this comfy blouse and the bright splashes of yellow make me happy. There is just something so easy and comfy about a blouse and cut off shorts. ;)

Hope y'all are having a great day! We are going to be doing a little shopping and wrangling with the IRS. Fun, right?! ;)
