FRIDAY FAVORITES...DOG DAYS OF SUMMER

A Great BIG Happy Friday to you all! Whew, it’s been a week hasn’t it? It seems like every week has been a week lately! My heart is with so many of you that are having kids heading back to school! We started out the week with a bad storm and in the basement for a tornado warning Monday night. Everything was ok, but a tornado did touchdown close by. LET’s hope for lots of sunny sweet skies ahead for this weekend!

1. Date Out/In
It was a beautiful weekend last weekend and I loved our pool day on Saturday but on Sunday, I really needed to get out of the house. I haven’t been out to eat since our vacation in northern Michigan in any restaurants in our area. We went over to another county and enjoyed a wonderful Spanish flared meal at Jesus Latin bar. We were going to sit outside but it was just too hot without umbrella’s but luckily they had all the doors wide open and the pomegranate margarita was to die for! after that, Mr. Nine took me over to Notre Dame to find Regis Philbin‘s grave! It was a lovely day out
Yummy!


Saturday's pool day...many of you thought Mr. Nine was naked on Instagram stories when I shared this...nope, he just didn't want in the picture. lol

2. Jewelry
Kendra Scott in the #NSale
I am not sure why I’m even talking about the Nsale, because it made me so mad when I shopped it on Monday, LOL! So many of my items are getting canceled left and right but I’m hearing all good things about these Kendra Scott Pieces at very good prices. Can you believe I never knew that Kendra Scott discounted her prices for the Nordstrom sale? I’ve got Kendra Scott pieces from Nordstrom before but wow, what a great time to get Kendra Scott gifts!

And speaking of gift ideas, maybe for yourself as well, I am loving all the pieces from Stella and Dot lately. I have not shopped there for a while but after I bought this clutch, I was sold again. Look at this cute necklace combo I got where you can put little charms on it. I’m wearing it as we speak!

WANNA BE WEDNESDAY...WONDERFUL WANDA

You know I love doing outfit re-creations, but I think they’re even more fun when you re-create a look of someone you know!

I have a divine pleasure of meeting Wanda from Wanda Loves Sharing a few months ago in a sharing clothing haul with some other beauties! I immediately fell in love with her big heart, her sensational style, her graceful beauty and most of all, her realness! And can I just add in, she has the best laugh I think I’ve ever heard!!

She shared this look several weeks ago for date night with her hubby that was long overdue due to Covid and one of her sweet girlies, she has two precious ones, picked out this outfit! I knew immediately when I saw that I would re-create it. I already had the clothing; I just needed the darling Stella and Dot Pearl CLUTCH PURSE (Bonus: Wanda is a Stella and Dot Rep) and fabulous acrylic band slide shoes! Oh, and I also grabbed a lock necklace on chain links that is getting to be a big accessory fashion trend!

She also writes an awesome BLOG by the same name and pretty much has something wonderful almost every day on Instagram stories! Do yourself a favor and Check Her Out now. You won’t be sorry and you will immediately feel like she is a friend!



Thank you for your warm heart Wanda and thank you for the outfit inspiration!

RE-CREATION & MY REFINED STYLE LINK-UP #3

 Happy Thursday and welcome to the 3rd monthly My Refined Style Link-Up. For this link-up I'm going casual and sporting my teenage son's sweater, who will be 18 tomorrow. I had pinned this gals ensamble a while back and when I started doing the outfit re-creations for posts, I knew it was one I wanted to try to pull off. The only thing I did not have was a neutral or grey v-neck. Into my sons closet I went, where I found this one from Express and it fit the bill perfectly.
Man does this girl look tiny, but she also looks 20 years younger, so I don't feel so bad. lol

My boots are Steve Madden from Macy's, White jeans are Target, Necklace also Target and gingham top that I adore is from Wal-Mart. Bracelet is Stella and Dot and since I didn't want to spend big bucks for a tortoiseshell fad watch, I got a similar one at Charming Charlie.

STYLIN' FOR SWINDELL

This was one excited lady right here. I'd been waiting for this night for 6 months!! As I stated in a post earlier in the week, my husband and I had front row seats to the Cole Swindell concert at our Fair this past Tuesday night. I love music of all kinds but I grew up on country so it holds true to my heart and country music stars simply put on amazing concerts. Cole was voted CMA's New Country artist of the year, has written songs for all the biggies including his buddy, Luke Bryan. 
His co-writer on the song, Chilin' It is even married to a girl from our town.


 Oh yeah, the outfit. Macy's boots, and the dress is from a store called Gordman's. Tassel necklace from Target, Initial necklace, Kate Spade, bracelet Stella and Dot and cuff from Charming Charlie
 Like a school girl, I had been trying to get him to re-tweet me leading up to the concert but he must've been getting his rest for the concert. However, his bass player and opening act Favorited my tweets! Cole did wave at me, thinking in his mind, I am sure, "yep, there's another one of my blonde middle-aged lady Twitter stalkers!' Ha!

**UPDATE. As of 10:04 this morning, Cole REPLIED to my Tweet today about this very post!!! More Tomorrow!! Woohoo!!





Great night Just "Chillin' It" with Cole!! Oh, and 
my husband and the 12,000 other concert goers.

Happy day before Fun Friday!!
