LACE DETAILS
We are all creatures of habit and they can be hard to change. I laugh about my hairstyle all the time. I will take a picture to my hairstylists and tell her that I want the cut in the picture. She cuts my hair and styles it like the picture and I just love the look. THEN, I go home and wash my hair and style it exactly like my old style. I am not sure why I think the result would be different because it’s not. I end up looking the same way and nothing like the picture I gave her. Lol! 
Turquoise was the choice for the day. Turquoise has been my choice for months now, I am addicted. Lol! I just love the bright pop of blue, it makes me happy. The Loudene cross necklace is perfect! I like the length and the style because it is great for a casual outfit or when I wear it to church. The turquoise cuff was a special but I can’t remember when, and I added the Tiffany pendant. On my other arm, I have on several bracelets. The pink one is Broedrick, the middle one is the Eunice, and the bottom one was the Gage which is now sold out. I have to laugh at this picture because I was trying an experiment last night. I decided to see if my Reverse Accelerator Lightning would work on my age spots on my hands. I scrubbed and added the products which took off my faux tan. Ooops, I forgot to reapply my tan to my hands. Lol!!! At least you can see how well my tanner works, I am always trying to find the silver lining.
What do you all think about this top? Truthfully, I am undecided. I loved the top in the store because of all the lace details. The hemline is GORGEOUS!!! But I have worn this before and I deleted all the pictures because I looked like a Cow in them. I decided to give it another shot today and I am still not loving the results. However, I got several compliments on the top. Do you think they were just being nice? My problem with the top is that I think the arms at the top look too tight and then the bell sleeve starts and also the puckers at the bust makes you look big in this area. You would think that because I am not large in that area I would like that, but I don’t. It is probably going to go on the not going to wear again shelf. (I do have on a camisole under this)
Today’s jeans are skinny jeans because they were clean. Lol! I wasn’t feeling like boots or heels (gasp) so I went with this cute ballet cheetah print slipper instead. This pair is a year or so old but this print is still very much in style. Mine are by Isaac Mizrahi and they are really comfortable.
Are you retired or planning on retiring in the next few years? What if this little side business of mine could help you? Partnering with two of the most famous doctors in the world is pretty unreal! What would you do with the extra income? Almost all of you have said to me, “I am not a salesperson!” Well, good!!! Because I am not interested in a salesperson. “I don’t want to post on FaceBook.” FINE! Do you have a telephone? Have you ever heard of picking up the phone and “talking” to some one. Lol! “I don’t have that many friends.” For just today I want you to count the number of people you meet that has “skin.” Those are the people who could, and probably should, be using Rodan & Fields. Everyone does not need an extra source of income, but for those of you who do, 45.00 is an awesome deal to start your own business.

Tania. Our sisters never listen to us. I have given my sister lots of fashion advice and all kinds of stuff. She doesn’t listen im the oldest so i know what i am talking about
Hi Tania! I absolutely love your hair. I wouldn’t change a thing. Another great outfit too!
When I saw your picture pop up this morning I thought “she looks amazing!” I absolutely love that top and you are crazy girl if you don’t wear it again! I will gladly take it off of your hands! LOL! And I can see the new layers in your hair and it looks amazing as always!
Not liking the top at all. There’s too much going on and the colour is not good on you. Even in a different colour it’s way too busy, Not something I would wear.
I love the top but not a fan of the sleeves I would either take the sleeves in or cut the off and make the top a short sleeve.
Good Morning! I love that top , as it is beautiful but I do agree , it has a couple problems. First the color is wrong for you . I would dye it a rich blue or even do a tye dye tea stain . But the unfixable part is the lack of space between the shoulder and the collar . I think that is what leads the the issues you have with the chest area . Take it to the cleaners and see if they can stretch that area or look for a DYI fix – I would hate to never wear that top again !!
Love your bloggin , sista ,

I’m a new follower and love your style! I like this top, but the only part that bothers me is the yellow-ish detail up at the top. It seems unnecessary with everything else going on. You look fabulous though as always! I’d love to see a post with an idea for professional wear. I work at a VERY stuffy company that requires we dress up and I have trouble coming up with new ideas of what to wear. I’m not a stuffy person and I have worked in casual environments for years, so this is hard for me!
You’re too funny! We’re such creatures of habit with our hair! I do the same thing! Ha! I never would have thought to put turquoise with that color. It really makes the outfit pop…great idea! Love the lacey detail and the whole outfit together looks great. I think you took an interesting, detail-filled top and pulled off a great outfit that’s really attractive. That’s the point. You’re not just wearing your shirt…you pulled in other items to show us how to pull in things to make it work. Job well done!!!
Love the top Tania x
I think you’ve already heard from several other gals what ‘we’ think of the top so I won’t even go there. I’m sure we’ve ALL regretted buying certain pieces of clothing over the years then never wearing them again for all of the reason’s mentioned. Just give it away, NOW, and don’t look back. One clothing mistake is NOT the end of the world. Haha. Love your blog AND you!
