THE PONCHO STYLE

I would like a show of hands if you are married or if you have ever been married. You gurls are going to understand my pain then. Joe is in the proverbial doghouse!!! He has a bad case of foot in mouth disease and until he gets cured I am afraid that he needs to be in isolation. Lol! I have heard that it is contagious and I would hate for it to spread. His first symptom was when he was talking the other day about needing to go on a diet. Later on that day he was eating everything in sight so I mentioned that he was wanting to go on a diet. His answer was, “I didn’t want to go on a diet, I wanted YOU to go on a diet.” You and I both know that is not the words that a sane man would ever utter. Then, later that night I had got in bed before him so I was all nice and toasty warm. He got in bed and said, “Ooooh, I am cold. Throw that thunder thigh over me and warm me up.” I heard all of you gasp all the way here in Virginia. Today he has complimented me all day long……….not going to work!!! Some of you have mentioned that Friday is supposed to be casual Friday. This is my casual look. This is as simple as it comes without wearing a birthday suit and just ask Joe, you don’t want to see that. Lol! This is a sweater and a pair of pants and I am sure everyone has that in their closet. This is a strange top in some ways. It is like a poncho because it is a square piece of material but then it has sleeves. I do love this casual style because it doesn’t touch me anywhere. There are no bumps or bulges for Joe to make fun of. Lol! He is really going to pay for a while.

 Since I wore this month’s Plunder Posse (here) already recently I decided to wear a different necklace today. It was also a Posse purchase but I don’t remember which month it was. It came with the larger bracelet that I have on. The smaller bracelet is the Ashlyn. It has the same ivory and gold beads that the Posse bracelet has but they are smaller. Both are on an elastic band and fits up to 8.5 inches. I mentioned the other day in this post that I liked gray and browns together and Plunder Design must also. Here is where you can go to sign up for the Posse. The earrings that I have on are the Judy and they are in a gunmetal color. These are made in a filigree design and they have a 3″ drop. This pair of black boots was a purchase that was not intended to happen. I went shopping for something else and this is what I came home with. Lol! I bet there are a lot of you that can relate to that. These are a pair of Bandolino black knee boots that I bought at Belks about 2 years ago. Wow, I can’t believe it has been that long ago. As I was leaving the store I looked over and saw a huge sale going on with the boots. I decided to go and check it out and the next thing I knew I was leaving with a new pair of black boots. Lol!

It was very windy when I was taking my pictures. I was freezing to death because I didn’t have on any kind of shirt under the poncho. After I finished with the pictures I went back into the bedroom and found me a black tank top to wear under this. It was a really good thing that I did too because this was what I wore to Charlottesville and it was even windier there. When we were unloading the luggage from the vehicle I thought I was going to get frostbite. Brrrr. I have a pair of Rockstar jeans on in a caramel color from Old Navy. I think that these run true to size and I am wearing a size 10.
