Favorite # ONE

Last Sunday was Cinco de Mayo!

Although I do not need a reason to go to dinner at a Mexican Restaurant, Cinco de Mayo is good one!

Because you just can’t have TOO MANY fajitas.They are magical!

LB and I went back to the new Salsas Mexican restaurant.

There was a short wait but we were early enough to secure a booth!

LB’s new

Cactus Shorts

As we made our way through a nearby Wal-Mart, LB found something unexpected.

He reached around his back to find that he had forgotten to remove the tag from his Cinco de Mayo shorts.

LB’s new shorts are from ROSS, but OLD NAVY had some good deals this week too!

I love a good deal and I’m looking forward to wearing this outfit.  After I exchange my jeans.  I’m telling myself that they run small.

Favorite # FIVE

Yes I’m DONE!

Today I turned in my final assignment for my philosophy course.  It was a VERY EDUCATIONAL experience and possibly the most difficult and controversial subject matter I’ve ever encountered.

LB is the only person who is happier than I as he won’t have to listen to me gripe about it anymore.

Last check I had a 93, but I have 2 assignments yet to be graded. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best!

Thank you for taking time out of your day to stop by my blog.

Daytona Beach Tanger Outlets

Daytona Beach Weekend Day 3 was ALL ABOUT our visit to the new

Daytona Beach Tanger Outlets

We arrived around noon and wasted no time visiting the shops

First stop was Kirkland’s

Obviously we had a good time at Kirkland’s.

Next stop was a shop that I haven’t experienced called Dress Barn.  The name isn’t all that pretty, but the prices are.  And the staff was very helpful and courteous.  I was especially impressed with the young lady that assisted me.

Now there is something about the word CLEARANCE that screams to me and I am immediately drawn to the back of the store.

And there I go…Cute dress and handbag.  I walked right past them both as the CLEARANCE sign screamed on and those yellow Capris I’ve been looking for… FOUND THEM!Next stop… UM…

Lee Wrangler Vanity Fair Outlet.      I’m still having trouble grouping this trio, but we found some useful items in this shopa handy dandy Nautica Cap.

And… Rainbow Dash and Princess Peppa.  I am a SUCKER for My Little Pony and anything else that Lydia likes!I have Always been an Express Fan.  Every time I walk through the doors of this shop I begin to covet (tears)

After a quick stop to pose with this

Pink Sugar BearWe checked into Old NavyIt used to be that I could walk into an Old Navy store and find something that I thought I had to have right away.  This time LB found something he had to have… Summer Shirts on Sale!  Blue/White striped, Pink, White, and Multi-colored checked Oxford Men’s shirts.  Although I did not go into the crowded dressing room with him, I did eventually see the shirts on him and love how they look.  The deals at Old Navy were great.

And I eventually came across these pretty little shoes marked WAY down.  The shoes at Old Navy are very cute, and even more cute when you find them on sale. (LB practicing with the camera features again)

We spent A LOT of time in Old Navy, then headed to another shop The items in this shop are just as pretty as can be.

Nearly all of the tops in this store are priced at $38 except this oneBy the look on my face you can see that I wasn’t sure about it because it is very poofy, but I bought it anyway because LB said I shouldI would have spent more time in Francesca’s because there were so many pretty things to see, but it was getting late and there was one more stop to makeThere’s that word again

We wound up our shopping adventure at the Daytona Beach Tanger Outlet around 3:30 PMIt was a shop till you drop kind of day!  And I’d spend any day doing the same!

50 Shades of Red

Actually there are only 43, but 50 sounded better.

And my jeans are labeled “wine”, but are still considered a shade of red.  Anyway wine, maroon, burgundy are all shades of red so we’re keeping it in the family.  As I’ve mentioned before, these jeans are a favorite of mine.  They fit like a glove and are as comfortable as can be.  I wear them a couple of times a month and usually with a black top.  They are great for wearing to work and for date night.  Here I’m wearing them with my animal print heels and a black cold-shoulder blouse


I’ve seen several articles and blog posts on “how to wear red pants/jeans”.  Here’s my tip:  Buy the jeans, take them home, try them on with all of your tops until you are happy and comfortable.  I typically wear a black top/blouse with my wine colored jeans, but any neutral will work including black/white strips, dots, animal print.  And they can be styled up or down depending on the occasion.  A tee shirt and sneakers for a casual look or dressed up in heels.

If you’re interested in a great buy, check out this $11.99 deal from Style & Co, Petite Slim-Leg Tummy-Control Jeans, Only at Macy’s:

One of my next purchases will be a bright red pair of jeans or pants like the ones pictured below
