casual wear
I enjoy a fun simple date day with my husband. Having a simple casual go to outfit makes for a low key stress free evening out.
My new pink sweater
When I lived in Southern California rarely did I “need” a warmer sweater, or jacket. Not true here in the Pacific Northwest. So, I keep my eyes open for any bargains when it comes to Fall, or Winter wear. I’ve mentioned a wonderful upscale thrift shop here in town called BREES. This is where I found a brand new QVC sweater never worn. Original price $14.99. However, it was on sale for $7.99. But, guess what? It doesn’t stop there, because I happened to go to BREE’S on green tag day! So, I received an additional 50% off…♡
I love Fall fashion!
Today was the first day of school. I couldn’t help but think of all the fun times I had creating cute outfits to wear for work. And, of course I love my boots!
