Margarita Night...

Saturday night was Margarita couples only open house at my friends boutique.  We had a really nice time.  Great food, beer, margaritas...awesome....I wanted to wear a sundress with dressy flip flops but not a chance.  It got cold and rainy here.  Really yucky.  I decided to wear my Lyndsey Phillips switch flops and change out the snaps to something fancy.  Found my Faith blingy shirt from her boutique and cute white dress jean capris...cross necklace, tiffany charm bracelet.  Looked very nice....I was so glad that I got to enjoy the food and drinks in between chatting it up with friends and customers....Great night!!!!

Memories....

Going thru my old discs the other day and found this song that was played at my daughters 8th grade graduation.  Mind you she is now 20 and in her second year of college, but this opened the flood gates.  Still get so worked up.  We had to turn in baby pictures of our kids and they did a slide show of them to this song...I hope you dance by Lee Ann Womack.  Cried thru the service.  Remembered it well.

This year was her first year away from home for college.  She did her first year at a community college.  She is 6 hours away from home.  Now let me tell you we have always had a love hate relationship.  No matter how mad I get she is my daughter and I do love her.  We were and still are pretty strict parents. Not too much crap gets by us and if it does she does tell us thank goodness.  All in all her grades were fantastic this year.  She did her part of partying but comes with the territory.  2 weeks and she will be home for the summer.  This will be huge for me because it was a major adjustment for me her being gone.  I started crying in June and she didn't leave til around the end of August.  I believe this was the toughest thing I had to do was let her go on her own.  A little bit of depression set in this year and I made some bad decisions and friended people I thought I could trust and would be there for me...well, I was so wrong on that aspect of things...So, anyway...things have gotten better and she has her summer planned out.  Job and summer school.  Then away again in August.  Kids are amazing.  We feel as parents we have really done a good job with her and hope we do the same with the youngest.  It is such hard aggravating work at times but the rewards are unmeasurable....Have a great day!  Hug you kids and your loved ones...

Another outfit of the day!

Ok....this is usually how I dress to go help my friend out at her boutique.  Need to look presentable when customers or friends stop by.  I am wearing some items from her shop.  The belt buckle and the tank are from her shop and the leather bracelet and one charm bracelet.  The other bracelet is my tiffany bracelet which I am in love with. It is chilly today so I put on a shrug that I had purchased at Maurice's back in the fall.  Jeans I got down south at a country western shop called Mckinneys.  Oh man do they have the stuff.  Tons of cowboy boots, clothes and saddles.  I want a saddle just to display in the house.  The smell of leather is awesome....My shoes of course or Fergie..She does killer shoes...Makeup was Lorac which I don't care for too much and lips Atomic orange from Kiss My Sass....  So anyway this is how I normally look when I need to hang out at the store....Thanks for being interested in my clothing...I need to do some more shopping.....Oh and I actually twisted my bangs back today...Oh hooray for a new look!!

Outfit for the day....

The Beautiful Baroque in Babylon likes my fashion sense so here is just a quick look at what I wore today...More casual today.  I have been wearing wedge sandals every day but today it was raining and I didn't want to get them ruined.  Don't mind the crazy hair and stupid look..I was aiming for the clothes....All I wore was a cute Farm Girl t shirt, tattered jeans with a black blingy belt and tan cowboy boots...also for jewelry I wore my Tiffany bracelet.  That was the extent of it....What do you think?

My blog...

Thanks for letting me know Peach that it wasn't working...I couldn't figure out what the heck was going on....I am terrible with computer stuff and everytime I switch templates I mess stuff up....so I left myself a comment...Thanks for bringing it to my attention....it should be working.....

Tarina Tarantino Palette

While out yesterday I stopped into Sephora really to pick up a  new mascara.  Obviously I looked around and saw some great items out there.  I ended up with the Tarina Tarantino palette.  At first I didn't see it.  The cover was closed.  I made another round thru the store and stopped and looked again and then opened it and said Yes this is what I want.  Lovely pretty colors.  Soft and elegant.  Had to have it.  Also, I ended up picking up MUFE Smoky Lash mascara.  Like it very much.  The palette was 35 or 38 and the mascara was 24.  Man they really want me to try out the Temptu.  I have heard about it but I don't think I would want to spend that kind of money on a machine like that.  Maybe I will try it but I know I won't buy one.  So, anyway, here is my look for the day...Hope you like....
