Friday Favorites

July 31, 2020

It is the last Friday in July, but still it is a

Favorite # ONE

This is Kathy.

Kathy works with me.

Kathy took this WHOLE week off from work.

Bad Kathy.

I’m just kidding.

Kathy celebrated her birthday on Monday and her anniversary on Wednesday and I hope her time off was wonderful!

She is our team lead and she is VITAL. When she is out of the office, the people who typically drive her crazy begin to panic.  They look for someone on her team to drive crazy.  Madness ensues.

She will be back from her much deserved week of multi-celebrations on Monday and

I AM SO GLAD!

Favorite # TWO

This is Darci.

She has been mine for many, many years.  She came with a pink one-piece swimsuit which I cannot find, but I do have her wrap-around skirt, flower, silver shoes, stand, and briefcase filled with fashion magazines.

My Darci is a brunette;  there is also a blonde and a redhead.

Last week, when my family met at Mama’s house, my sister and I began a discussion that involved the many Barbie dolls and other fashion dolls that we’ve had over the years.  I insisted that I had a Tuesday Taylor doll, but I was actually thinking about Darci.

I am sorry Gina and I look forward to making everything right.

Favorite # THREE

Tuesday Taylor

I’m not sure how I could have mistaken Darci for Tuesday Taylor.

Favorite # FOUR

Ann Taylor

It is no secret that I love to buy clothes from LOFT, but this week I ventured out and browsed another of Ann Taylor’s websites.  I found this cute little Ruffle Trim Shell in Apricot Zest that I had to have.

Right now it is on sale for $20.

Last week I purchased it for $8.

Ways to Wear It is a great feature of Ann Taylor websites.

Favorite # FIVE

Star Trek

The original series first aired in 1966, just a few months after I was born.  When I was a little girl, back in the 1970s, I remember my Daddy loved to watch Star Trek.  It aired at 5PM each weekday and I can still picture Daddy sitting in his chair laughing at the banter between Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock.  And Bones.

This week LB and I watched the Movie Star Trek the Wrath of Khan.  Later when I was flipping channels I came across the 2009 Star Trek movie featuring Chris Pines as Kirk during the early days of the starship USS Enterprise.  I’ll always be a Star Trek fan.  I never followed the Next Generation, Voyager, or any of the others, but I never tire of the original Star Trek stories.

Live long and Prosper!

Welcome!


I’m Kim… and I love Pretty clothes, Pretty décor, Pretty days, and Pretty much anything that involves family and fun.  Growing up, My Mama told me more than once “Pretty is as Pretty does” …encouraging me to focus on the inner pretty girl, as she is the one that matters most.

Here on my blog, I’m sharing what I see as pretty.  Whether it be an outfit, an experience, an event, a memory or thought.  Hopefully I’ll share something that will be interesting, useful, or make you smile along the way.
