HOW DO YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF
I have entered into this training program and one of the things it talks about is, “how do you see yourself?” It asked me to come up with 8 words that I would use to describe myself. Then it said to ask others to describe you and to see if their descriptions were anywhere on your list. This is a scary project. I am sure that you would get different answers depending on the relationship you had with the person answering the question. If I ask Joe to describe me then his answers will be different from what my mom’s answers would be.
I know for a fact that one of Joe’s descriptions would be obsessive. He has told me for ages that I am obsessive when it comes to things and I have to admit that he is right. He looks at it like being consumed by a project to the point where you can’t think about anything else. I look at it like being the best you can be at whatever you set your mind to. The end result is the same. When I went to Charleston with my Energizer Bunny Friend and Jersey Girl then heard me mention once or twice that I am shy. Both of them disagree with my statement. They don’t see me as shy at all. Try this experiment with your friends and see the answers.
A dress is about as simple as you can get when it comes to getting ready. It is one item and you don’t even have to worry about picking out an item that matches. A dress and a pair of shoes and you can walk out the door. As Emersyn has recently been quoted saying, “Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy.” Lol! I have no idea where that came from!!! I love this dress but I hope you don’t have your heart set on it since I just saw that the website said it was sold out. This came from Cato Fashions a couple of weeks ago. I really liked the colors, they just scream “FALL” to me. I also like just the slit on the shoulder. It is a cold shoulder look but not a huge opening. I am always drawn to a v-neck because it elongates your neck.
Gold, gold, and more gold is the order of the day. The Ashton earrings continue to be one of my favorites. It is hard for me to imagine now but at one time I was afraid these would be too big for me to wear. It is funny how fast your comfort zone can expand. The Rhiannon is the long multi-strand leather necklace with the gold hanging disks and the Keri necklace is the gold square link necklace. The Rhiannon is a boho lovers dream and the Keri is more dainty and refined. Even though they are complete opposites I think they look great together. I also wore the matching bracelet to the Rhiannon, the Scarlett.
I am so glad that boot weather has finally arrived. I love knee boots but Joe is not a huge fan. By the end of the winter, he will start to fuss every time I wear them which will be ALL THE TIME! Lol! This was one of my favorite pairs from last year. They are by Marc Fisher and I bought them at the overstock store. I like that this heel is a block style and is not quite so tall as some of my other boots.
The Dooney & Bourke Tulip shopper is such a cute purse. I bought mine at the overstock store in town but I found it on eBay if you are interested in it. I love the lighter color and the suede material. I need to clean the bottom of mine because it has some dirt on the corners.
Did you notice my bakelite disk bracelet? This is one of my favorite bakelite bracelets and I am sure it is the colors that I like. The bracelet makes a lot of noise when your arm moves.
SO, I am going to ask a favor from you guys. I want you to list words that best describe me. Please comment below (5) words that you think represents who I am. Don’t feel the need to be nice, instead be brutally honest. Everyone who leaves these comments will be entered into a drawing for the NEW Active Hydration Bright Eye Complex that is not even available for purchase yet.
Have you ever wondered why I would ask you to sign up for my email subscription? I know that you may access me from another way like FaceBook or Instagram but “brands” like to see a large email subscription list. So, I am asking you to sign up if you don’t mind, it would really help me. The comment section is at the end of the post, so keep scrolling. I look forward to reading all the comments, they make my day. Be sure to follow me on Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

Down to earth, kind, honest, real!, compassionate, funny. I had to put the explanation after real because I sense some bloggers are not exactly who they come across as being and I don’t get this feeling with you. More like what you see (and read) is what you get.

Confident (I’ve always thought that), Courageous (you don’t let the hard things get you down or at least not keep you down), considerate (you have a heart for others -always have), witty (you all have James to thank for that one) and last but not least Christian (this one alone encompasses everything positive under the sun). 🙂 <3

This is another sharp fall outfit. Fabulous brown boots. I have boot envy bad. I commend the Goldilock balance you managed between the height of the boot top and the bottom of the dress hem: just right.

Outgoing, big-hearted, brave, kind, driven. My wonderful grandfather was the #1 natl. salesman for a division of a major corporation year after year, and would see people he knew everywhere he went. He had so, so many friends, and oozed charisma. We never could understand it, but he also would always absolutely insist he was shy. So, it’s not just you!

Kind, fun, fashionable, God honoring, loving. Those are the first words that popped into my head this morning and not in any particular order. I could come up with more:). I gave a small talk last week at our local nursing home and that was my ice breaker-described yourself in one sentence. Later I tied it into identifying with Christ and seeing yourself through that who He is.
Upbeat, eclectic, devoted, faithful and fun 🙂

For you, I would say fun, generous, cheerful.
