YOU HAD ME AT LILAC

You know it is going to be a good day when your hairstylist messages you that she is running 5 to 10 minutes late. That is when I got the deer in the headlights look because I had totally forgotten I even had an appointment. I quickly messaged her back and said real casually, “what time is my appointment?” That didn’t fool her at all because her response was, “In 30 minutes. Did you forget?” Lol! I told her that 50 was not old but I might be a tad bit unorganized. Haha!What I didn’t tell her was that I hadn’t even started to put on my makeup. I had just finished with my normal Reverse routine and had applied my eye cream. I was in the middle of brushing my teeth when she texted. If you know me at all then you already know that it takes me much, much, longer than 30 minutes to put on my makeup and do my hair. I rationalized that I didn’t have to fix my hair because I was going to the hairdresser so I could just concentrate on getting my makeup on really quickly. I can’t skip steps! I tried, I really did, but it just feels not right if I leave off something. Instead, I just decided to move really fast and be efficient. I was walking out the door in 30 minutes and even stopped and picked her up a coffee at McDonald’s. I hope Joe isn’t reading today’s blog because he would expect me to do that every day. That isn’t going to happen!!!I have been liking my length so I told her to keep everything the same and just to give me a trim. It will be a few days before it is on the blog because I have a couple outfits already taken but you probably won’t notice the difference anyway. This is a pretty colorful outfit compared to yesterday’s post. Everyone seemed to really enjoy the black dress and tortoise shell jewelry. I bought this beautiful top the other day at the overstock store in town and it is by Lisa Rinna. I love the feel of this top, it is silky feeling. It is a blend of 95% Rayon and 5% Spandex which is what the dress was I had on yesterday, but this is lightweight and silky and the dress was more substantial. I don’t quite understand the difference but maybe it has to do with thread count or something. Anyway, I didn’t get a shot of the back but it has a cute inverted pleat that is a really cute unique detail. The keyhole neckline with the silver accent is also pretty darn cute. This is just a relaxed oversized top that doesn’t swallow you. This is actually a Petite but it fits me fine and I am not even close to being Petite.  I wasn’t sure what kind of jewelry I wanted to wear with this outfit but the cross jewelry called my name. These earrings are pretty dainty and have an aurora borealis effect to them even though you can’t see that in the picture. They match the Lizzy necklace that has a large cross and cream colored tassels. I decided to wear the Tony necklace instead of the Lizzy. This is made with the palest pink glass beads and the cross is antiqued in pale pink. It is a very striking piece. The bracelet I am wearing on my left hand is the Corey and it is another magnetic piece. This comes with a removable extra clasp so that you can adjust it to fit your wrist. It is several strands of different beads and a tassel dangle that gives the piece a boho look. One my right arm I am wearing my bling bracelets, the clear stone one is the Chalon and the turquoise one is the Brianna. The plum colored one is now discontinued. I have two parties open right now if you want to make a purchase. Tania11 is for normal purchases and sets is for when you are purchasing the jewelry sets. This week I am refunding 10% off all “sets” in honor of my Plunder anniversary. Man oh man are these a colorful pair of palazzo pants! Lol!!! I bought these last year at a little boutique in the next town over. Believe it or not, I actually struggled last year with what to wear with them. They are very colorful and everything I put with them just seemed too much. I finally settled on a white top and here is where I wore that. Which way do you like the outfit best? Lilac top, white top, or throw those things away and don’t worry about it anymore.

You can’t see them but I have on my c/o Nina Shoes, Nevaeh sandals. I love this crocheted sandal and you will be seeing these all summer long. I thought about carrying my white purse with outfit since it is so summery but to tell you the truth I just didn’t feel like changing everything out. I am just like the rest of you occasionally and just say the heck with it. The Dooney & Bourke purse looks just fine. Haha

I was talking to my mother this morning and she told me that she really liked my tortoise shell set that I had on yesterday and that she placed an order. I asked her what she thought about the Plunder necklace and earrings that I was giving away. She didn’t know what I was talking about. I asked her if she read the post and she said she did so I said, “didn’t you see the picture of the necklace and earrings?” Then she told me that she did she the picture but she didn’t bother to read the rest of the post. She said, “that is where you always say “follow me” and you talk about Rodan and Fields and I am already buying that so I just don’t read that part.” What!!! My own mother doesn’t even read all of my blog. I told her that is also where I talk about giveaways, etc. She didn’t seem too concerned because she said that SIRI wouldn’t pick her anyway. SIRI has now been instructed to never pick my mother as the winner of anything. Lol!

If you are like my Mom and didn’t read ALL of my blog yesterday then you need to go back HERE and read it so that you can enter my giveaway. Lol!
