PINK AND GRAY FOR SPRING

The sun was out today and I even took a picture and put it on my Facebook page to prove it. It has rained so much I told Joe that we need to have a sale at the lumber company. He asked me what kind of sale I had in mind and I told him, “Ark Supplies.” He looked at me and said, “What?” He just looked so confused, so I told him again. Once again he asked me what I was talking about. I finally yelled at him, “ARK!!!!” Oh, okay, I get it! Have you ever heard the expression that men marry women like their mom and women marry men like their daddy? Let me tell you a little story about my dad and you decide. My mom had cooked supper and had it on the table. I am not sure what it was but I think it had turnip greens in the menu. I am not a fan of turnip greens but I know that some people like to season them with vinegar. My mom was busy on the computer and dad asked her for the vinegar but I don’t think she heard him. He asked again for the vinegar, but again mom was preoccupied so she didn’t hear him. Finally,  he shouted, “VINEGAR!!!!” Everybody about jumped out of their skin he was so loud. It has become a phrase that is used in my household often. Ever so often Joe or I one will yell, “VINEGAR” when the other one is not paying attention. Hahaha Maybe I am the one like daddy. I LOVE this top! I just got this in the other day c/o the Purple Poppy. I styled another one of their items last year (see here) and I know them to have quality products. When they contacted me again I was chomping at the bit to look at their website. I looked at the tops and the sweaters which are usually my favorites items but I was intrigued by the category that said Before & After. This line is now called Whimsy Rose and I am going to forewarn you that every one of the tops in this line is adorable! I narrowed down my choice to two or three and finally just told them for them to pick. This one is called the Desert Bloom Blush. It just screams spring!!! This is very light-weight and has the waffly texture of insulated underwear. That might sound strange, but it is adorable. The bracelets I have on look like they were just made for this top. They are the Broedrick and the Ezra (sold out). I decided to wear a Plunder Posse from October, along with my Believe necklace, and I thought it looked fine. However, as I was leaving for work I stopped and check the mailbox. I immediately threw off the Posse necklace and instead put on my brand new Heritage necklace which is one of the Valentine’s Day specials. I swear they look like I bought all this to go with my top!!!

Gray on gray on gray. I styled this purse on yesterday’s post so I won’t link to it again. Instead, let me tell you about my new gray leather boots by Halston. These are the perfect color of gray, I would call them a medium gray. They have a very small wedge heel and a pointy toe.

The darker gray pants are just a little too big for me. By the end of the day I had a saggy butt, thankfully the tunic top covered most of that. Haha! I am not sure what the name of the pants was because I have cut out the tag. They must have had an itchy tag to go along with a saggy butt. Lol!

Be sure to check out the Purple Poppy for a cute and fun top for spring. It made me feel better just wearing it.
