Simple Pleasures

There must be something wrong with me to get this happy about clothes. Seriously...this can't be natural. I put on something, look in the mirror and just go nuts over how great I feel in it and then it's like walking on sunshine for the rest of the day. Shallow? Maybe to some, but what can I say? It's the little things that make me happy! I like that about me!



I put this outfit together last night and did not even try it on first. I wanted to get my clothes out of the room so Sweet Baby could sleep in. He's been working some ridiculous hours since he got off vacation. So I just grabbed the pieces believing and trusting that they would all work together and I love the result. It's crazy that I don't think that there's more than $25 in the whole outfit. You know, it really isn't about the money. It just continues to surprise me how little it costs to find things that just make you feel good and look great!

Mine is a simple but happy life! My husband, my kids, sweet family, wonderful friends and doing things that I love....what else is there really? Every now and then I just get overly sentimental about things and just feel overwhelmed with gratitude. I guess today's just one of those days!





Skirt, Top and Cardigan...... Thrifted ($3.69 each)

Boots......New in box via Ebay ($12)




I had this Archies album and used to go to my room, put this on, and dance endlessly! It's just good ol' happy music!

  3. sweet mix of pattern & texture! And I'm glad to hear that someone else mentally puts together an outfit without trying it all on first. That's how I get some of my goofy posts--in an attempt to rescue an outfit that isn't working.

    I agree with Paula on the boots!

  4. Thanks girlies! The blouse is 100% silk, and I'm lovin' the boots! Terri, sometimes things work in my head better than they do on my body! But this time, I loved the outcome.
