Cinco de Mayo

May 6, 2017

The plan was to go out for Mexican Cuisine as soon as I finished my shift this evening.

LB managed to rustle up some amigos to join us for dinner.

My idea of a good time is to go to my favorite Mexican restaurant La Nopalera.  There are several locations in town and I’ve been to almost all of them.  We met at the La Nopalera in the Oakleaf Town Center.  This location is notoriously crowded and there is ALWAYS a wait.  And unlike their website, they have NO music.  Fortunately we managed to secure a table [within the three hour wait period] and enjoy several baskets of chips accompanied by queso, salsa and guacamole.

Now for the real 411… I wanted to wear my Lauren Conrad red/orange crochet dress to work today, but it was forecast to be too chilly tonight for this particular dress.  Instead I was unprepared and ended up wearing an orange blouse and skinny jeans.  Today I am shopping for Cinco de Mayo outfits so I will have something appropriate as a back up plan.  Below are my better late than never outfit ideas that I am sure will work just as well next year and throughout the summer

Venus / Shein  / LOFT / Payless

The Mint Julep Boutique / World Market / Venus / ASOS

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.
