OOTD-Snow Leopard!



Roar! I have had some leopard going on this past week - I would like to call it Snow Leopard since it's in the gray family! I am having some serious love for these CAbi Sateen Brees! Who knew pants could be so comfy! I wore these to work today - but I can also see dressing them down for casual wear too. LOVE me some CAbi. I need to become a consultant already. If their home offices were in San Francisco, you can bet I'd be beating their door down to hire me! That would be my dream job! Working for CAbi - but in an administrative role, not so much sales.

Here's my Preacher's Wife outfit from Sunday - my face looks sleepy - to bed too late I guess! This was inspired by looks I see from my blog friend Pam, on her blog, Over 50 Feeling 40!
I often joke I'm Over 40 Feeling 50!

Beautiful Friends!

Today we attended a wedding reception for one of our dearest friend's daughters. She eloped in Tennessee, and came back this weekend for a reception with her church family - romantic!

It was such a fun party, seeing all of our church friends from near and far. I feel exceptionally blessed by all the wonderful people in our own congregation, and then we got to see other dear friends that go back as far as college! It was a happy day. I think you can tell by the photos we were happy to be together. That's how the Christian life is!

Me and my BEAUTIFUL friend, Naomi! I think she should be a model! She gets me when it comes to "fashion" talk! I have taught her in Bible class since she was a cute little girl with ponytails! What a wonderful young lady she has become! Her Mom is my bosom friend (think Anne of Green Gables - Anne & Diana Berry).
Girlfriend shot! Deanne is always keeping me laughing, this girl is so funny- she is also my esthetician and keeps me looking good! Over the years D has become one of my closest friends. She has helped me in my Christian walk - such a great worker for the Lord- and mama to 4 children!

Beautiful ladies all - and what makes them beautiful - THEY LOVE GOD!

OOTD-Toss On

This is one of my CAbi items- the Toss On Jacket! I love it! Great color (my camera stinks, it's really coral) and love the fit. I can see wearing it with a ton in my closet. I always think a cardigan or blazer really finishes an outfit.

Dress: Old Navy $7 clearance
Blazer: CAbi Toss On Jacket

CAbi Haul!

I have been planning my spring line CAbi party for about 6 months- ever since my fall party! Well, I had it last Thursday and I had so much fun trying on all the items I have been wishing for this spring/summer. I had a great turnout with lots of fun ladies, and these are the items I am getting. Can't wait! I concentrated on pants and toppers and I got the 70's style jeans for Maggie. We will have lots of CAbi posts coming up!

OOTD-Mint Condition

I have been craving some mint for my wardrobe after seeing so many beautiful pairings on Bloglovin. So this shirt was a great surprise! I have to say thanks to Kayley from Sidewalk Ready. I won this beautiful Stitched and Adorned shirt from a giveaway on her blog!

Recently I have also gotten a blazer from F21 and some perfect mint jeans from the Target Mossimo line that I have yet to wear on the blog. I can't wait to wear my mint jeans. One day they popped up at Target, and honestly, the next day they were ALL GONE! And they aren't online. I was lucky to find them as they were only $25 and other mint jeans I've looked at are $100 and up.


Shirt: Stitched and Adorned (sold out)
Pants: Jones of New York via ROSS
Shoes: Rockport via ROSS ($9.99)
