HOW TO DRESS FOR THE CHILLY DAYS OF SPRING
I am so very thankful that my son, daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren live right next door. I know a lot of you are probably not getting to see your grandbabies very often now. I saw that my mother posted a photo on Facebook from Christmas a couple of years ago of all the children sitting around a tiny table. She was saying how badly she is missing seeing everyone, and I know that a lot of you are feeling the same way.
I got the blog done early yesterday, so I walked over to visit with Emersyn and Beckham. I peeped around the corner at them, and when they saw me, they started screaming, “NeNe!!!” They came flying to give me hugs, and I was beaming all over. And then my son said, I don’t know why they act like that every time someone walks in the door. I looked at him and said, “why couldn’t you have just let me think that they only act like that when I come over?” He laughed, and then he said, “you are the only person that they go nuts for when you walk in the door!” Yep, that’s what I thought. Lol! When I got ready to leave, Emersyn already had on her shoes and had her toys to go home with me. Beckham saw that we were going to leave, and he disappeared for a minute. He came back flying with his shoes and a coat and said, “I go to NeNe’s house!” I love living next door!!!
I got ready to go into work yesterday for a couple of hours. I needed to do the payroll reports and to reconcile the bank account. I put on some new clothing that had just come in the mail, and then I went outside to take my photos. Oh my goodness, the temperatures have dropped, and I swear it is going to snow.
This 100% Viscose shirt is so silky against your skin. I love the way that it feels and the way that it hangs. Warning, the shirt does have patch pockets on the chest, so those who are not fond of this look will need to keep scrolling. I am wearing a size medium in this top, and it fits me perfectly. Here is the link to this basic and essential button-down shirt.
Because the temperatures were dropping, I went back inside the house and put this beautiful pink sweater on for a little extra warmth. This was also a new purchase from Loft, and I love love, love this sweater. Joe even complimented me on how pretty the color looked. Woohoo! That doesn’t happen very often.
This sweater is a fine gauge knit, and it is a thin material, not heavy like a winter sweater. This sweater is perfect for spring and chilly nights in the summer. It is slightly fitted, but not tight to where it shows all of your imperfections. This sweater would look great under a blazer and very professional. It is machine washable, which is a huge plus in my book. I am wearing a size medium, and it fits me perfectly. Here is the link to the sweater.
When I was wearing the white button-down by itself, I added the Easton silver earrings and a long silver chain with light-colored stones. Kendra Scott is giving a free gift with a 75.00 purchase until Sunday. When you go to checkout, you will get the choice between a pair of earrings, a necklace, or a bracelet that is available.
These faded gray skinny jeans are one of those items that are very limited. This color must be in high demand this year because every pair that I found that wasn’t hundreds of dollars were either sold out or limited in sizes. I love this color, and I probably own four jeans’ in this color. If you like one, then why not get multiples? Right? Lol! I am wearing my usual size 30, which is the same as a size 10 and they fit me great.

I am sorry to say that when you post pictures this way, I cannot see the pictures unless I click on the save to Pinterest icon. I don’t have any trouble any other time. I’m not sure why but many times I just skip you for the day. I get disappointed because I love your looks.
Trish, I am not sure what you mean. I post my pictures the same way every day, I never do anything different. Explain how they are different so that I can fix the issue or you.
Have you washed the blouse yet? It’s so cute, but has negative reviews about shrinking …
Di love the pink sweater outfit. I was going to ask where to buy the cross too. It looks so good with the pink sweater. Thanks for an Easter blog. Have a great day, tomorrow.
I also live in Canada and although my grandkids live only 20 minutes away have not seen or hugged since March 15. Our rule here is you shelter in place with those who live in the house no exceptions. Hard I know but our numbers are so low compared to yours in the USA so I am so glad so many people are listening to our leaders who are doing an amazing job.
My 3 year old granddaughter cries every time we FaceTime for sleepover and breaks my heart! One day soon!??
My grandchildren live close by but we are observing shelter in place and staying the suggested 6 ft distance when we see them. I miss the hugs and their overnight visits.
