GIVE SUMMER THE COLD SHOULDER

As much as I hate it, it is time to give summer the cold shoulder. The past few mornings it has been almost nippy, with just a touch of coolness in the air. I have even noticed that it is starting to get that “crisp” look that comes in the fall. I need to go through my closet and see if there is any summer clothing that I need to wear before making the full transition to fall mode.I love ankle booties and regular knee boots, but I am not looking forward to the cold weather. I am going to try to get a transitional post up before long for you. I jumped right into the spring clothing in March while everyone else in town was still running around in heavy coats and fur vests. I did get a few strange looks at the grocery store, but I didn’t mind. Some bloggers are starting their fall attire starting September, but I just don’t know if I am ready. Especially since I am going to be in Panama City Florida the beginning of September. Can you imagine the looks I would get down there? HahahaI wore this top a couple of weeks ago, mainly because I wanted to show off the jewelry I was wearing. I fooled around though, and never put it on the blog till now. Guess what??? The jewelry is all sold out, so it is no longer available! I guess the next time I will not drag my feet. The long necklace and the matching bracelet was this month’s Plunder Posse purchase. Both items combined were only $25.00 including the shipping, taxes, etc. It was a fantastic purchase, and because of that, it has already sold out. Each month’s posse is a limited supply, and the jewelry will not be featured in the catalog.Today’s top is the cold shoulder trend that has been so popular this summer. I wore this top back in June, but I thought today I would try to be a little softer with the look. The top was purchased at Cato’s this spring. I wasn’t sure if I would like the cold shoulder trend, so I did not want to sink a lot of money into the look.

My daughter rolled her eyes at all my bangles, but I am glad of that. Otherwise half of them would be going back to Alaska. Lol! I have an August contest running with Plunder. EVERYONE who places an order from Plunder through me in the month of August, will be entered in for a $25.00 Plunder gift certificate. You can buy a bracelet, and you will be entered into the contest. To shop with me, here is the website: http://www.plunderdesign.com/taniastephens  Try copying and pasting this in the address line, and hopefully it will work. If not, then type in my stylist number 241007 in the stylist box at checkout. I have started an online party, and there is a dropdown box where you can choose Tania’s P Party at checkout also. Several of you ladies have already taken me up on this offer. Good Luck!The shorter Rosalie necklace is still in stock. Lol! I like this necklace, and it’s matching earrings, because it is the perfect length to fill in that void that a longer necklace will leave. If you are wondering how to layer necklaces, this is a simple example. BTW, I don’t think I made it clear in my previous posts, but EVERY purchase from Plunder in the month of August gets you entered for the 25.00 gift certificate. So if you purchase something three separate times, you will be entered three times.
I have on the palest of pink ankle pants today. I own three different pink ankle pants, each one just a tiny bit different. Two of them are by Old Navy, and one is by Talbots. I truthfully forgot about having the one from Old Navy, and bought another pair ALMOST identical. I know, I have too much clothing.

It is the perfect size, it has plenty of pockets, and let’s be real, the color is perfect???The cork platform wedge shoes are a pair I bought in February at the DSW in Atlanta. I liked all the colors in the shoe, but they actually hurt a little right across the toe. That is why you don’t see me wear them a lot.

I get like this, I will eat the same thing, wear the same color scheme, carry the same purse, and wear the same jewelry. Having the blog has helped me just a little bit to expand. I hope it has helped you gurls as well. It just dawned on me that some of you might be new followers and not know why I call everyone my gurls. Here is the post about that. I promise you, I do know the correct spelling. Haha!

How about a little Backroad Song on a Thursday?
