Posing in Italy!

June 9, 2017

My life is exciting, but I haven’t been able to make time to visit Italy (source)

I have just recently started my blog… only three months ago TODAY! It has been a lot of fun and more work than I imagined… more like a second job than a hobby or pastime. Last week I enjoyed a summer vacation trip to Captiva Island which I covered in this blog, and wrapped up with a visit to the ER. It was at some point during the ride to the hospital that I realized how SHORT life really is. My thought during that ride was that I was on my way out, like my Daddy who was just slightly older than me when he left this world on November 23rd 2001. I am much like him, so it is no wonder that I assumed I would meet the same type of end. I may still do that, just not on June 3rd 2017. I am proud that I am so much like him. But I am pleased to say that I’m not finished here yet.

As I was flipping through Instagram during my lunch break today, I noticed ANOTHER person that I follow posting photos of herself in Italy. It seems to be a trend to pose for a picture of yourself in Cinque Terre.

Happily, I am taking shots of myself in my bedroom! Alive and well

… and wearing my beautiful White House Black Market blouse that LB purchased for me in March of this yearalong with my FAVORITE black sandals

and all the Brighton jewelry any red blooded American girl could ask for

my bracelets are retired. The above pictured are similar

Thank you Jesus

The resistance has ended… and I have retrieved the winter clothes.
Boots too.

These riding boots are a brand called Top Moda that I found as a result of a search for ‘riding boots‘ in Amazon and were very inexpensive. They were $29.98 when I bought them and are now listed as $15.99 with only 2 left in stock. Although I never specified ‘wide leg’ these are wide enough to run into each other when I walk. On a positive note, they are warm and that is my main goal today.

This is outfit # 321 from my Stylebook:

I’m not wearing it in my selfie, but the jacket was a must today and this one was purchased from Kohl’s. It’s an Apt 9 motorcycle jacket

What state is this anyway?

Isn’t this the SUNSHINE STATE???

I know I keep going on about this…

COLD!

And NO, this is Not a weather blog.

It’s all about fashion

Because of the chilly temps today I’m styling a turtleneck. Turtlenecks Do have their advantages. For one, they hide neck flaws. As I mentioned previously, I have put my winter clothes away. However, this turtleneck stays out for use year round.
