HOW TO LOOK TRENDY AND MODERN

You guys, I am so proud of myself! Most of you probably know that cleaning the house is not my thang! I hate cleaning because it will just get dirty again, so why bother? Lol! Joe has been trying to get me to clean out my laundry room for a couple of years, but I keep putting it off because it was overwhelming to me. But, since my daughter was here last month encouraging me to start purging my things, I have been doing better. So, today, I decided to tackle the beast.
The first thing that I did was move all of the items that I wanted to keep (but don’t use often) up to the top shelves. That opened up a lot of space for items that I do use more often, but that I don’t want on my kitchen countertops. Then, I went through to gather up all of the items that I no longer need. I have a motorcycle trailer where I store those items until I can give them away or sell them in a yard sale. Finally, with all of the shelves empty, I took and wiped down all of the shelves to get rid of the dirt and dust.

The entire back wall of my room is floor to ceiling shelves, so I have converted it into a large pantry. I have a small pantry in my kitchen, but this will hold a lot more items, so I rearranged my kitchen pantry, and moved some of the items to the laundry room. Now, all I have to do is stock up on supplies so that I do not always have to run to the store. Does anyone else hate going to the store as much as I do?
The description on the website says it all about this top. It is called “Super Soft Tunic Top,” and I couldn’t have said it better. I called my daughter after I put this top on, and told her that it was incredibly soft. I haven’t washed the top yet, so I can’t tell you that it is going to stay that way, but I am betting that it will. In fact, I just went on and ordered the v-neck version in blue and aqua also because of the softness. I have lots of dressier clothes, but I don’t have a lot of items that I can wear for just sitting around the house and being cute and cozy. These tops will fix that problem, and at a great price. Here is the link to this top, and I am wearing the medium.

My casual look calls for casual jewelry. I want to point out the unique bracelets that I am wearing. These were a gift when I went to New Orleans for the R+F Convention. They are made out of guitar strings and tiny beads, which would have been more appropriate for the Nashville Convention.

The Sophee earrings are a pair that you can wear casually or dressy. I love the design of the earrings and how they hug the side of your face. These come in several colors, including Rhodium, Rose Gold, and Gunmetal. Here is the link to the earrings. Here are a few more earrings from which you can choose.

These leopard print flats are super cute. But, I will admit that they are not made to wear if you are going to be walking all day long. I can wear them for work if I do not have to walk the whole time. If you sit at a desk part of the day, then these would be fine. I am not used to wearing flats, so I might be more sensitive than many of you. I couldn’t resist these flats, since they are not expensive, and they will look great with crops, jeans, shorts, and dresses. Here is the link to the flats, and they do run true to size. I am wearing my usual size 9.
The chewed hem of these skinny jeans makes them super cute. There is a tiny bit of distressing at the hem, so this might work for many of you how don’t like distressed jeans. This allows you to be trendy and modern looking without wearing jeans with large holes. These jeans are high-rise, so they hit right above the belly button. They do fit snugly, but they seem to hold you in for a flattering look. I am sure the rest of you like your tummy looking flat as I do. I am wearing my usual size 10, so if you don’t want the jeans to fit you tight, then you might want to size up. Here is the link to the jeans, which also comes in curvy, petite, and the color white.
I hope you enjoyed this soft, casual outfit. The modern details keep the look fresh and young, but the comfort level keeps you happy. Be sure to join me tomorrow for a Thursday try-on session!
