T-SHIRT AND JEANS
Did everyone survive the weekend? It is playoff time in the NFL and I bet a lot of you had football games playing in your house. I don’t watch a lot of television, in fact, unless Emersyn comes to visit, the TV is never turned on. But this past Saturday I didn’t get out of the house because is was yucky outside, so I relaxed with two dogs beside me and watched a couple games. My sister lives in the Atlanta area so I know her household was happy. LOL!
Joe has had a lingering cold ever since we got back from Tennessee. This has been ongoing now for about two weeks. He just can’t seem to shake the cold and is not a happy camper. You all know how men are when they are sick. Lol! It makes it worse that I looked like I was going to catch a cold but only felt bad for one day. He says I am not human. Hahaha
I thought I would go casual today. A plain white long sleeve t-shirt and a pair of jeans is just a normal outfit that I bet everyone has in their closet. I added a Motto cable knit cropped open cardigan to take the look to another level. The cardigan is a gorgeous deep wine color. I seem to be in a wine, burgundy, purple color mode. I wore this, this, and this all recently. The cardigan came from the overstock store in town but here are a couple similar.
My skinny jeans are Vigoss that I bought at Maurices. I really dread when skinny jeans go out of style, they can be very flattering. It took me a long time before I finally bought my first pair and I felt really silly in them. But when no one made fun of me I figured it must be alright. I can’t believe I am going to quote Katy Perry, but here goes.
In case you are wondering about the earrings I have on, they were part of a Plunder set that is not available. I didn’t care for the necklace so I gave that away. I liked the earrings so I kept them to wear with other items. I wanted to briefly talk about Plunder and Rodan and Fields. I have had a couple comments made that they didn’t appreciate me mentioning these companies on my blog and that they found it too distracting. First, I also can sell Stella & Dot, Chloe & Isabel, and LipSence but you don’t hear me mentioning those companies. I LOVE the Plunder items and I wear them for that reason. I signed up in order to be able to get the discount and I link to them so that you can also enjoy the items, the same as I try to do with my clothing. Secondly, I use Rodan and Fields and I LOVE the results of my skin. I never mentioned anything about R & F until you gurls started asking me what I was doing. Why would I not mention these two companies that I really love? Why would I not try to make a few dollars off of my blog? You do not have to purchase anything, EVER, and I always try to only mention R & F at the very end of my post so I do not “bother” anyone. But remember, just because you have read my “deals” over and over, doesn’t mean that someone new is not reading this for the first time. If you are interested in either or these companies or their products, look at this post where I answer questions concerning them.

Yep, I hope that skinny jeans will be with us at least till I’m old enough not to want to wear them anymore!!!!! I LOOOOve them!!!!! Your cable knit cardi is just great and burgundy is another colour that suits you wonderfully!!!! You look so relaxed, yet still very stylish and elegant – I think the smart boots does a lot to complete the look perfectly – had you been wearing a more casual shoe I think it would have changed the whole look!!! So beautiful!!!!

Me too! I don’t how or why I look better in skinny jeans, never would have thought it! I don’t mind bootcut either but 90% of my pants are skinnies!
I love reading your blog. We don’t have the products in the UK that you talk about so I just skim read those bits – no problem – love to see your outfits and what you put together.
Great short sleeved cardigan Tania – how nice to be relaxing in front of TV for awhile…I only watch it Fri and Sat evenings when my hubby puts on a film…or at 10pm at nite for the news – omg!!!
Have a great day,

Oh men are awfull when they feel sick! Just tell Joe that we all feel for him! Hahahaha, enjoy your day!
lovely, casual look. I feel your pain regarding shoe size as I also wear a size nine but I’m not nearly as tall as you. I’ve passed on many pairs of shoes because they accentuated the size of my feet. Stay healthy.

I I wear a size 10 shoe, and am 5′ 9″ tall. When I was only 4’7″ in the 7th grade I already had big feet, but was so short. I hit 14 and, like the boys, shot up to match my, still growing feet. One thing that I have learned is that your feet don’t look as big as you think they do, in relation to your whole self! Embrace a good foundation!!
Hey loving the casual gear. Great colours. Love the red bling plunder pity you can’t buy that here is Australia. Went looking in a few costume jewellry stores today buy found nothing like that.
Well look forward to tomorrow’s post. ???
Joanne, you never know. Rodan and Fields is coming to Australia, so Plunder might follow suit. Lol!
Tania,,, you look adorable in this outfit… actually,,, it’s one of my favorites on you… it makes you look so young 🙂 in regards to the comments that some are making … DON’T YOU WORRY ONE BIT ABOUT IT …You never sound pushy.. and I, personally like hearing about some business opportunities 🙂 stay exactly who you are…. we love you!!!
Thanks, Sherri. Joe tells me that I am obsessive when it comes to things I like, so I really try to dial it back a notch or two fro the blog. I could ramble on and on about things I like about these companies. Haha
I just adore your cardigan Tania and those Plunder valentines specials look really lovely. I keep waiting for the day they ship to the UK.
I ordered mine, Caroline, and can’t wait to get them in. Plunder is growing at a pretty rapid pace, so who knows, they may hit the UK one day.
I’m a new follower and I love your style. I also love your haircut and style!
Welcome, Linda!!! I am so happy you found my little blog and I hope you continue to come visit with me.
Tania, I really like your relaxed outfits as well as your dressier ones. The wine tones go well with the touch of turquoise. You do a great thing, blogging everyday. You are honest and I enjoy your humour. Cheers, Travey.
Thanks, Tracey. There are just days when a t-shirt is the only thing want to wear. Lol!
