Thanks Elle Decor Magazine

I was flipping through an old decorating magazine before I threw it out, when I came across an article about an editor's house out in the Hamptons.  The lady who looked like one of those people who lunch and have front row seats at the fashion shows, had on an absolutely fascinating outfit.  I was about to have an attack of jealousy until I realized I had  similar elements of said outfit.  I scrounged around, found the clothes and accessories and was out the door in a flash.  Too bad it took longer to get a decent picture.

Finally! I Get To Wear Shorts.

Gee!  The last time I wore shorts was back in October.  It was finally warm enough to wear shorts, but the weather man says the weekend is going to be cool.  Boo!

Leopard Jade

I had a picture of an outfit that I was meaning to put together during the winter but I kept forgetting about it.  I finally put the picture back in my style notebook when it got to warm for my long sleeve stripe shirt.  Then I was cleaning out my closet when I realized that I had a short sleeve stripe shirt that would match.  I quickly put the outfit together so I could go out and run errands.

Colonial Fashionista-Lissie's Easter Outfit

Even though Lissie had already taken her Easter outfit photo back in March, she changed her mind when one of my relatives commented that she always dressed as the plantation owner's daughter.  Yes, I did explain that her father was a store owner and it was her maternal grandfather who owned the plantation, but to no avail, everyone wanted to know where were her play clothes.  Since everything from lace dresses to shorts are worn to church on any given Sunday, including Easter, Lissie decided to wear her new riding habit outfit.  She traded the petticoat for the breeches and borrowed one of Lucky's tops and her worry doll purse.  She left her jacket off because it got warm.
She did get a lot of compliments.
