bold, bright & beautiful

I'm loving the color craze that is taking over the fashion world right now.  Slacks, shorts, skirts, shifts, shirts, shoes, satchels - you name it.  The brighter the better.  Yes, I used the word slacks.  How about dungarees?  Does anyone have a father that still refers to jeans as dungarees?  I do.  Be jealous.  Anyway, it's all about color. As we all know trends come and go so my suggestion is to fill up your closet for the season, but don't spend a fortune. Maybe the title of  this post should've been Thrifty Thursday.  You know the deal -  it's in today but out tomorrow.  I recommend GAP if you want colorful dungarees at a reasonable price.  Buy a size smaller though because they stretch.  After one wear it will look like you have a load in your pants.  No joke. Toot. Toot.

Slacks.

Shorts.




Skirts.



Shifts.
Shirts.

Shoes & Satchels


Okay, disregard my Thrifty Thursday comment.  Half the stuff I posted cost more than what I make in a month of work.  Waaaa.  Good day my friends.  Be bold. Be bright. Be beautiful. xox

Step by Step

Step One - I could have lots of fun
Step Two - There's so much decorating I could do
Step Three - If someone buys a second home for me
Step Four - Just need one more 
Step Five - Don't you know that the time has arrived

NKOTB sums it up well.  I need a second home so I can step in style.  No, I don't actually need a second home to stencil, paint or wallpaper my stairs.  I just want one.  Typically what I want and what I get are two very different things.  Woe is me.

Upward we go.  Love this trend.

This pic is from the cover of the Serena & Lily catalogue. Hi little buddy.  I love you just as much as the staircase.






I advise against the mice.  Frightening.  Very frightening. Did someone actually think this looked good?









Just incase you forgot how to count.....




I'm stepping to bed. See you soon. Nite.
