ORANGE AND MAROON

I almost couldn’t wear this outfit, it was really, really was hard. Does anybody have any idea why this University of Tennessee fan would have a hard time wearing this outfit??? Lol! I wore this to church and I had at least 5 or 6 people come up to me and tell me they loved my outfit. They were all Virginia Tech fans. Hahaha! I can’t help it if I am a Tennessee girl living in a Virginia world. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t know anybody that attends UT and I have never met Peyton Manning. There is really no reason that I should be a UT fan other than the fact that I was born in Tennessee. Isn’t it funny how you can root and pull for one team or another, and that extends to professional teams also? I used to love the Minnesota Vikings because I liked Fran Tarkenton. I have always been a football fan and will watch a game if I sit down long enough. Haha, I have only been to one professional game and it was pre-season. I know it was the Baltimore Ravens but I can’t remember who they played. I just remember not being too impressed because they just seemed to lolly-gag around and not really even try. It was probably because it was pre-season. I did go see a professional basketball game and it was in Washington. I went to see Michael Jordan right before he retired but they didn’t seem too intense either. The professional baseball games I have been to have been better than the football or the basketball, but baseball can be a little boring. This print cardigan is one by Isaac Mizrahi and I bought it at the overstock store in town. Several of you have asked the name, address, telephone number, etc. They do not have a website but they do have a Facebook page. The Outlet Store is the name. I knew the minute I bought this cardigan that it was Virginia Tech colors but I bought it anyway. I like the colors and I like the print. Here are a couple cute cardigans by Isaac Mizrahi and they are not a bad price.

I have had many messages about my favorite Plunder pieces. I am going to do a post soon, maybe even this week and I’ll tell you why a little later. I can tell you that this necklace will be included in my favorites blog. This is called the Destiny and I ordered it in an “S” so that my daughter or DIL could also wear this piece. My gold and pearl bracelet was a Monday Madness special so it is no longer available, however, the silver version is called the Wanda. The solid gold bangle is called the Aisha and it is inscribed, “My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears”
Plunder will be coming out with a new catalog in April so that means a lot of current jewelry will be retiring. In fact, some of the items may already be sold out like the Anita. I think that one is already gone. I can’t believe they are retiring my boho bangles. I love those things, I am glad I have already managed to get all of them. Lol! Grab them now if you want any of them before they are gone. Remember, I am refunding 15% off any order that is over $50.00 not including shipping and tax. Go to www.plunderdesign.com/party/believe to shop.
I bought this midi length maroon sweater skirt at Cato this fall. I wore it last time with a jacket, but I think I like this look better. If you liked the necklace in the other post, you better order it now. This is one that is retiring this time and when it is sold out there won’t be any more made.

My Dooney & Bourke satchel purse has been a good one. When you invest money in a purse like this you know that you can carry it for a long time. It is very sturdy and even though I am not easy on my purses, it has held up and still looks great.

Joe and I are off to the Big Easy. Is that what they still call New Orleans? Anyway, that is where I am headed. You know I never have any posts done ahead of time so we will have to see what I can come up with. That is why I thought I might do a “favorites” post. Maybe one on some of my favorite outfits, maybe one on Plunder and one of Rodan and Fields and the business associated with each. I may and then again I might just upload a bunch of photos from the trip. I have a tendency to be having so much fun that I forget to take photos, I guess we will all just have to wait and see.
