#ad #macy’s #shoppinglinks #macyslove #MyNambe today, my ootd is all about timeless classics. one item that typically makes the must-have list is a trenchcoat. and not far behind, at least on my list is a turtleneck (they’re back on-trend ladies!). so adding a cuff bracelet into the mix is a no-brainer. according to several sources, a silver cuff […]

Today is ALL ABOUT MAKEUP DAY, so I thought that I would share the makeup I use on a daily basis. Some days I use one product, and I use others on another day. But, these are the core items I reach for most. I’m sure I left out a lot of items, but this...
If you have followed this blog for a while, you may remember that each year in early November, we gather with friends to collect the funds for a project that is very close to our hearts. Our wine and cheese social were held last Thursday evening at the law offices of our dear friend, Tony…
I am telling you gurls, I am dragging my rear today. I traveled from my sisters in Georgia to North Myrtle Beach on Thursday, which just happened to also be Valentine’s Day. It was a six-hour drive, and other than having to travel through downtown Atlanta, the trip was fabulous. Joe made it to the...

Time for a Q&A post! "What are your tips for mixing and matching unrelated pieces to create successful unique looks?" There are a few tips I always try to remember when I am mixing unrelated pieces. First, I limit the colors to no more than three. When wearing two or three pieces that are all the same color, I always mix the textures since the colors will rarely match exactly. Don't be afraid to mix modern with classic. That is one of the secrets to keeping your looks current. If I am wearing something trendy, I keep all the other items very traditional and classic. Learning which colors and proportions look best on your body shape makes it a lot easier to mix and match pieces with confidence. We had not planned to go out to dinner for Valentine's day, but when our dearest friends called to invite us to join them, we gladly accepted. I found this brocade jacket on sale at Chico's recently. This was the perfect evening to wear it for the first time. Considering that it is so ornate, I kept the other accessories to a minimum. The small reptile embossed box clutch is from S.M. Bradford in Hilton Head. The faux leather front Ponte knit back leggings are also from Chico's. The short boots are by French Connection via Saks Off 5th. The Covered Perfectly long sleeve simple comfort tunic has the best neckline for layering I have ever worn. I also love that they are sleek, fitting to keep me warm, but they don't add any bulk under my jackets. More black and also the white tunics will be back in stock soon. They are selling so fast that the USA maker of these tops is having difficulty keeping up with the demand. When I answered the door, Mr. Mickey handed me a dozen roses, Godiva chocolates, and cards. I count myself very lucky to be his lady!
and it’s home again, home again, jiggety jig. today’s post is short and sweet peeps as the past two days have gone by in a blur. what fun to zip up to minneapolis and join christopher and banks in another photo shoot. everyone on set is such a joy to work with from the makeup […]
O título inicial seria “Moda Acima de 50 Anos” mas 50 ainda é tão mas tão jovem que não faria muito sentido começar um post dedicado a mulheres mais maduras e com 50 anos. Resolvi aumentar a idade e ainda assim acho tudo jovem hahahaha. Afinal, os 4o são os novos 30, os 50 os […]
If you know me at all then you know that I don’t believe in coincidences. I don’t think that things happen randomly. I think that there is always a reason that something is placed in your life. I especially feel like that when it comes to people I meet. I find myself wondering all the time...

Woohoo, it is officially Saturday! I finally have my days straight, and I am ready to sit back and relax this weekend. Who am I kidding? Lol! I have a to-do list a mile long, and I don’t see my list getting any shorter. I recently ordered some curtains for my bedroom, and they finally...
The weekend was awesome! I am sure a lot of you probably feel the same way. Mine had family and friends visiting and a vintage fashion show. My mom and her friend Donna hold several vintage fashion shows each year and they have been so good to help out our Woman’s Club with this unique...

My goodness, it’s like someone flipped a switch in me, and now I am spending tons of time on Pinterest looking at fall fashions and fall decorations for my front porch. Am I the only one who has gone into “fall mania?” I need to be trying to come up with some outfits for me...
This post is sponsored by Chico’s, and I will receive compensation, but the opinions expressed are my own. Tropical is the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this gorgeous dress. It looks like a tropical paradise with all of the rich, lush colors, especially the vibrant reds of the flowers. I...
