STYLING PALAZZO PANTS
Hello everyone from sunny Florida. Haha That would have been what I would have said this wonderful Labor Day. But instead, I am back here is sunny Virginia, and it is gorgeous today! I am taking the day off today, even thought the store is open, we won’t be very busy. I think taking ONE day off is at least called for. Lol! How are you spending your Labor Day? I know you are reading my blog, but other that that, what are your plans?
Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It always struck me as funny, that to celebrate our workers, we take off work. Hahaha Does that strike anyone else as odd, or am I just weird? I know this marks the “official” end to summer, and a lot of people will celebrate today with a cookout or a trip to the lake. Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Potato Salad, and Watermelon will probably be on the menu.
I know I am on the colorful side today, but this is an outfit I had planned on wearing in Florida. I decided to go ahead and wear it today, and let you see how you can wear lots of color, without looking like a clown. Lol! I toned down the look a little by wearing this white Karen Kane tank top. I put on an orchid tank top with the pants, just to see how it would look, but decided that I liked the white better. This top has a gauze overlay, that is split up the back. I do not know why I didn’t take a picture of that, I guess I just forgot.

I have on a Plunder Posse necklace with this look. This is the first piece I ever received from the Posse. The Plunder Posse is a monthly subscription of 25.00, which includes shipping, tax, etc., and they ship you an item each month. You have no idea what you will be receiving, and it never goes in the catalog to be sold.
The pendant on the necklace says, “My favorite weather is bird chirping weather.” You can’t purchase this necklace, this was June’s Posse, I am sorry. If it was something you liked, you can look on ebay or message me, there are Plunder site’s where ladies sell discontinued items or display items and I might could find you one. As you can see I have on a slew of bangles. My mother laughed at me last weekend, and my hundred bracelets. Sorry mom, I like this look. Hahaha
Here is what this month’s Posse is going to be. I decided to show you the flyer, because last month I waited too long. By the time I received my Posse, wore it, took a picture, and put it on the blog, it had sold out. I am afraid that is what is going to happen this month also. Where else can you get a necklace, bracelet, and a pair of earrings for $25.00. If you decide to sign up for Posse, you can cancel at any time. So you can buy this set, and then turn around and cancel the subscription.
How about these palazzo pants? Are you brave enough to wear these? I bought these several weeks ago on the clearance rack, and I wore them at the woman’s club conference I attended in Blacksburg, Va. I didn’t get a picture then, so I knew I could wear it today and still take a picture for you. If it is a day when I am not taking a picture, I will wear something I have already shown on the blog. I can’t afford to lose a photo opportunity. Lol!

Here I was trying to adjust my strap, and I dropped my purse. Of course that is the time the camera decided to take the picture. I’ve learned you might as well laugh at yourself, cause others certainly do.
You can’t even see my Aerosole wedge shoes. These pants are long, so just the toes are sticking out. I was told by a boutique owner, that all these type pants are long. You are supposed to stand on a stool, and let a friend cut them off to the length you need, and that they wouldn’t unravel. I can just imagine my hemline looking like a roller coaster, I don’t think so!!!
As I was heading out the door, I decided to change necklaces. Do you ever do that? Anyway, I took a selfie so you could see the difference. I think I like this look better, it is more dressy and classy. Can you still look classy wearing a crazy print pair of pants? This is the Bonita necklace, and I have on the matching Lupe earrings. The Plunder bracelets I have on are Feather and Pearl, Edith, Bobby, Liza, Monica, Odette, and the Skye.
Tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is my one year anniversary on the blog!!! I am thankful, excited, worn out, scared, blessed, and a variety of other things. How in the world did I end up with a blog??? Be sure to tune in tomorrow and see how I celebrate.

I’m enjoying your creative style and use of color, you look fabulous! Thank you for your inspiration to dress with style.
Hi, I’m new to your blog. Just discovered it yesterday and LOVE IT!!!
First, love this whole outfit but who is the pink bag from? I saw it in another post of yours and love it.
Request, unless you already do this and I missed it, which is entirely possible! hahaha
In your makeup tutorial, could you please add a list of your products?
I tried to jot some down, but didn’t get them all.
And how funny that you use R&F. A friend of my daughter’s recently decided to start selling it and tried to get me on board. I’m currently working on getting my RE License reinstated so told her I didn’t have time. But wow, when I looked it up after seeing your video I was sad to see how expensive it is. Oh well, honestly it seems like most fashion blogs I find are showing things I just can’t afford. But that’s OK, at least I get ideas and try to mirror them with what I can afford. 🙂
Anyway, loving the blog!! Have a great week!

Love your blog and the pants! And I live in Christiansburg (just beside Blacksburg)!! Small world!
I love pallazzo pants & this outfit is adorable as always on you! I love the first necklace because it matches the pants! But the 2nd necklace is beautiful & you are right, looks very classy! I really like the top you are wearing too! I enjoyed reading your first blog again & seeing your family is costumes! Sorry you missed out on the Jam in Florida!
I love your site!!! I am a very young 66 and since reading you – I create an outfit, including a bag and pose in my mirror – before leaving the house. It really has prompted me to be my best not just for occassions but every day!
You always look so put together – and you tutorials on hair, makeup and self tanner are great!
