NEUTRALS ARE A SPRING TREND

I can’t believe that I am finally back home and sleeping in my own bed! It has been two weeks since I have been here, although that was not the plan when I left headed to my sisters. I had planned on staying at my sister’s until the 12th, but Ashleigh came to visit also and talked me into staying for a couple more days. Then I headed to the beach to meet up with Joe for a couple of days. We were supposed to have left there on Sunday, but every day we kept extending our stay. Lol! It is a good thing that someone had rented the place for Wednesday night or I might still be down there. Hahaha! Why didn’t somebody tell me that this was how it was when you are semi-retired? This is pretty dang cool being able to go and stay as you please. I am going to be working for the rest of the week and trying to get things ready for the taxes that are due next month. Plus, I am going to try and remember how to do payroll since I am pinch-hitting for my replacement who is headed to Disney with his kids. It has been a while since I have been to Disney with two small children in tow…I probably will have more fun doing the payroll than he will be having. LOL!!! I hope that I can remember the login information on how to get into the computer. No joke, it has been a long time since I have had to do any of this type of work. It is funny how fast you can forget the things that you don’t want to remember.
Did you know that one of the hot trends for Spring is going to be neutrals? Yep, you heard it here, start looking through your closets for your neutral colored items. Nothing that I have on in this post is new; it is all things that I have had in my closet for a while. I love buying new clothes, but I also like going to my closet and making new outfits out of items that I already own. Because I was traveling, I tried to take as few items with me as I could, and then to see how I could switch a few items around to make the outfits look different. Does this outfit look familiar to you? Here is how I wore it last week on the blog. I tweaked the look just a tiny bit, but I think that it changed the look a lot. What do you think? Anyway, this waterfall vest is one that I bought last year at Cato Fashions.

LOOK!!!! I have proof that Spring is coming! I only have on a few pieces of jewelry with this relaxed outfit. The Larissa necklace is a long necklace that I have doubled, and it is made from wooden beads that are strung on a brown cord. The Tessie earrings were the only earrings that I took with me when I went to visit my sister. They ended up matching so many things, and the reason is that they are neutral. Neutral colored items can match anything even though they might not be the “best” look, but they still work. I have on a long sleeve crew neck white t-shirt. This is a basic shirt, and you can find this almost anywhere. I think that this one might have come from Cato Fashions last year. The suede or velvet jeans are a strange color. I am not sure if they are gray or if they’re are taupe, but I like them either way. These came from Old Navy last year, and I found a pair that looks similar to them here, but I am not positive that it is the same jean.

How about a picture of my sister and me together for a change of pace? She was all into staying warm, purple hat and all, while I was freezing my tail off trying to get a decent picture for everyone. Lol!

I am pretty excited about today! It is the day that so many teens and young adults are going to be able to purchase the new Spotless 2-step regimen. The results that I have seen have honestly been fantastic, and because my daughter suffered from acne, I know what it will mean to these young people to finally have their skin cleared up. Days like this is when I swell up with pride at being associated with this company. I love making a difference in all of your clothing choices but helping to change someone’s skin for the better is something that is hard to describe.
