A TOAST TO LAE’VISIA
Joe and I have a Valentine’s Day dance to attend tonight. We have gotten to where we like to go out occasionally and the Country Club where we are members have started having a few functions. Grundy is a small little town and there are not a lot of activities that we can do. Since the Country Club started having some parties we have attended a St. Patricks party, a 4th of July party, and a couple of Halloween parties. The last party we attended was the New Year’s Eve party. We attended that party with my friend that recently passed away. We had both brought some Champagne to do a toast at midnight for the incoming year. We ended up having to leave before midnight however so we did not do a toast. I called the club and asked if the bottles were still there and they were. So, tomorrow night, me and a couple of his friends will all be having a toast to our friend with his bottle of Champagne. He would like it better if we all had on wigs. I’ll have to see if I can find one. Lol!
My friend had an alter ego. I know most of you have seen or heard of Madea. Madea is the alter ego of Tyler Perry and he has become quite famous with her in the movies. My friends alter ego was called Lae’Visia Rivers. This is a play on the name of the river that runs through Grundy, the Levisa. Lae’Visia put out videos that were hilarious and always wearing his/her wig. Lae’Visia wouldn’t go anywhere without being dressed to the “nines” and neither would my friend. (Remember the Gucci shoes) I have no idea what I will wear tonight because I want to be comfortable but I better look good. I wouldn’t want to disappoint Lae’Visia. 
Joe asked me if I was feeling patriotic or if I was wearing this in support of the Patriots. Haha! I hadn’t even noticed that it was red, white, and blue. I wanted to wear this red sleeveless tunic/dress and I knew that I needed a shirt to wear under it. This tunic/dress is one that I got this past summer and I have worn it before. (here) The french terry dress is by Susan Graver. I love the two pockets on the front of the dress. This is just the perfect dress to wear in the summer, over a bathing suit, or with leggings, like I have it here.
I was trying to get my bangles arranged so that you could see them. I have a couple Alex and Ani bracelets on that I bought when I went to Las Vegas and I added a couple of the Lindy bracelets that match. Don’t forget that I am offering 15% off Plunder on orders over 50.00, I will send you a check for the discount. Go to www.plunderdesign.com/party/believe to shop from Plunder.
My blue and white striped button-up shirt is from Talbots. I LOVE Talbots!!! I could spend a year’s salary in Talbots. It is a really good thing that I don’t have one close by. The nearest one is probably 2 1/2 hours away. I really like the fact that this is a no-iron shirt, I always look for that if I can. lol!

This top really makes the blue in your eyes pop! Have so much fun.
Cheers to your friend. I am sure he will be celebrating with you. Tania, red is so your color! You look gorgeous! What is that splendid shade of red lipstick you have on? I am a sucker for red lipstick. Have fun!
Very cute! Love the bright colors. I’m wrong shape for the tunic, but as a “top” or vest over the shirt I’d love it. You look GREAT!
Have a wonderful night. Sounds like a fitting tribute to your friend.
So cute. That necklace is wonderful and helps make the outfit.
Beautiful post about your friend. Enjoy your toast. You look adorable.
So cute today – I love this outfit! (What else is new!) What a fun way to celebrate the life of your friend who passed. Enjoy your fabulous evening of dancing w/your sweetie!
