Dress Me Pretty – Red Dress

Step Style up with RED !

What I do at 4:30 AM…..I shop !
Sounds sad, but sometimes I just can’t sleep. Maybe it’s the laptop sitting…waiting for me…calling me by name!?!?

If it was a normal time, I would be ordering something over the top to wear out, BUT not so, it’s a little red dress that I can always wear, dress up, dress down, wear with a sweater and legging. That BLACK dress…has me written all over it ! LOVE!!

I will share when it arrives !

It’s a GREAT day for National Gourmet Coffee Day Tomorrow

Make Mine Coffee

NOTHING makes me happier than a mug of coffee. January 18th is National Gourmet Coffee Day ! I haven’t been going for coffee these past months, I had to figure out how to do it at home and doing it I am! BUT, then came the 19 pounds of Covid talk with Dr. and it’s now coffee with Silk milk, no sugar syrup and NO Carmel! And it’s REALLY OK ! Has to be !

I moved a hutch into our kitchenette to make into a coffee bar, but no water, talked with plumber, too expensive, carried water for 3 days AND no thanks, back on our kitchen counter.

Stepping up My Style

Nothing better than NEW Pajamas !

I have NEVER been a self-care kind of girl. Over the past few months dealing with an aging parent and learning I have to take care of myself first, I can fix nothing outside my-self. Walking away is very hard for me, in my process I have found joy in style and clothes again and being over 60 it’s a bit different but FUN !

AND It’s National Bacon Day, December 30th ! I’m home and alone today. Husband is fishing on the bay with a friend, social distance on a boat and we needed to take some space. Nothing makes me happier than pajamas. And having a new pair is over the moon JOY for me. We have been home for months like some of you. So, no New Years Eve party or dinner out for us. My new dress this year is all about the pajamas. Stepping up my Style

A nice black set pajama is a favorite, these have a short sleeve and longer pants.

Pink is the color – Soft and warm, even in Florida it’s needed, wrap me up, turn on the TV and let’s New Year’s Eve.

Ballet Shoe Slippers – a classic from my ballet bar days

And my go to pearl earring. A traditional and classic.

Happy New Year, 2021 welcome and let’s be HAPPY !
