Before I start in with all the bloggy stuff I just want to let you guys know that my blog was mentioned in http://style.lifegoesstrong.com/what-are-you-wearing It is a really good site that deals with the MANY issues of
Along with myself, 3 of my favorite over 50 bloggers were mentioned too. Check them out they're pretty cool! I say a big cheers for the 4 of us if we didn't live all over the country we could have a toast together.
On second thought that probably wouldn't be such a good idea. Joanie would be trying to make us try out silly poses and Debbi would be changing our accessories and Patti would try to teach us HTML and tell us our outfits are to girly! And I would make them all try on a maxi.
Of course I jest, they are quite a combo platter and I am happy to know them.

and Debbi @ http://sheaccessorizeswell.blogspot.com/
I just realized that several of my last posts have been of maxis. I feel like a maxing fool. It's these damn link ups I get involved with. But alas, they are just to much fun to miss! No matter what the next inspiration, challenge or make over is I will not do another maxi until I can wear boots with it! And that's a promise.
At the bottom of today's post I added some pictures of what this boring 50 something did this weekend.
Take a peek
This one is for Two birds inspiration Monday. http://twobirdsboutique.blogspot.com/
I'm also participating over at Not Dead Yet http://notdeadyetstyle.blogspot.com/ Style for Inspiration Monday
Here is my inspiration photo. The lovely Kiera Knightley.
And here is my take on it. I didn't have a flowing yellow skirt or an escort that looks like gray T shirt guy.
As is my way I did the best I could
The boring outfit details.
Thrifted, thrifted and thrifted. (saving that money for Charleston and Savanna in October)
Whole outfit $9.00 (including shoes-excluding purse)
Still waiting for the guy in the gray T to bring me a drink! |
Well look at that smile. Here he comes! |
Arm candy for the 50 and over |
And yes, sometimes more is better! |
OMG! Old lady feet, I wish she would quit sneaking into my shots! |
My poor old Coach bag. I think both of us need a resurfacing! |
A friend of ours is in a rock band so Saturday night off we went to the local bar to have a few and listen to the music. If I was Cinderella I definitely would have turned into a pumpkin!
Sunday we headed over to our friend Glenn's he had a shrimp boil. It was delicious. After dinner it was good times by the fire with good friends.
