A WONDERFUL COLOR COMBINATION
I hope everyone has some wonderful plans for the weekend. If not, then I hope you can relax and just enjoy spending some time taking care of yourself, that person we sometimes neglect. I am amazed at how many emails that I get from you gurls who say that after reading my blog you are starting to take care of yourself more and invest in you. How did we, as women, ever forget that we matter? I was guilty also, the children and Joe always came first. Truth is, they probably still do, but now I am able to at least spend a small amount of time tending to “my” needs also.
Raise your hand if you have not eaten what you wanted because you wanted the kids or your husband to be able to have plenty. Raise your hand if you have not bought yourself clothing because the kids needed new things. Raise your hand if you didn’t buy something for yourself so that you could spend the extra money on gifts for others. How many of us have colored our own hair to save money or done our own nails, etc.? I think we you look up the words giving and selfless you will find a picture of a woman. She might have on older looking clothing and her hairstyle might look like it did 15 years earlier but deep in her soul, she is satisfied. BUT, when those kids leave home and create their own families, then we can finally start putting some emphasis back on ourselves. You deserve it!
I have no idea why that morning inspiration came pouring out. My weather is still really nice outside but I am back to a sweater and jeans outfit today which can also be used as a spring transition look. The beige/tan cashmere cocoon sweater is so soft. The color is soft as well as the material. I love the coziness of the sweater and how it wraps around your body. This sweater is lightweight and provides enough warmth in the mornings without being too heavy when the sun starts to warm everything up. If you live in the colder regions then you can slip a heavy coat over the outfit and take it off once you are inside.
I have on the Addison earrings with a 3″ drop today. They are a mustard color which is just a touch darker than my sweater. They aren’t a bright yellow which is what I would have expected when I saw the word mustard. The Rhiannon necklace has been one of my favorite items from the fall catalog. I have worn it and worn it and worn it. I bet all of you are saying, “we know!!!” Lol! The leather straps matched my sweater perfectly and the gold discs popped against the burgundy background. I chose the Gail and the Ashlyn bracelets to go with the gold discs. They are both easily put on with the Gail being on elastic. 
The soft ankle booties from Old Navy goes perfectly with the sweater. I bought this pair last year and I still ear them a lot. The block heel is very much still on trend and you can’t go wrong with this light fawn color. Since spring is coming soon I am also linking to a few booties that have the open-toe design. PERFECT for spring and showing off a pedicure!
One of my favorite color combinations is beige/tan and burgundy. Today I added a burgundy short sleeved sweater under my cardigan. Adding a short sleeve top under the cardigan allows me the opportunity to take off the cardigan if it gets warmer as the day goes on. If I had a sleeveless top on then I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing that at this time of the year. The burgundy provides the perfect backdrop for the gold jewelry and it looks rick looking.

You just gave me an idea as I have a sweater that color and a top with burgundy in it !!!! Pretty necklace too! Pinned it to my clothing board. I find that it’s hard not to still “take care” of our kids. I always find myself taking food along when we go to visit. Do any of you other Moms still do this? The grandkids love when Grandma brings muffins so I will probably always continue to do that. Hope you are feeling better today.
Tania I love this outfit this a great causal fridar work look. Thank you for the reminder to take care of ourselves. Sometimes we get so involved take care of others that we forget to take care of us. All this lack of self care can lead to a wore out momma who is sick n cant take of anyone. Sorry I got caught up lol
Good morning Tania, I’ve been sharing your pictures on Pinterest and also FB.. I soooo Love your style, and you’ve given me great ideas . I read your post each morning before my walk.
Have a wonderful day!
Bobbie

Enjoy the weekend.
I love the burgundy with the camel color!!!! I get such great ideas from you! I shared this on Facebook with a testimony of how much I love your blog!!! Hope you have a great weekend!
Photo pinned to my Pinterest board “styles for me”. Love this outfit..I need to invest in more cardigans..and this color would be a good start.
You look great!!!
Hi Tania, I pinned a picture on Pinterest. You look so young. I like the whole outfit, the color combinations look great on you.
How true are your words and these are the reasons why I have now started my own little blog.
I do love the colour combination and as for the cardigan it just makes me feel like giving you a cuddle lol. It looks so soft and comfortable. Just what I need in my wardrobe for our cold and damp UK weather.
It would be great if we had trunk clubs like you but I have not come across any here in England.
Glad you are feeling better today. Jill x
Hi Tania, I do so love the color combination you have on today. Those warm tones work well for me with my brown and blonde hair. I do have a question. Do you remember where your sweater is from? I love that color so much!
Hi, Tania! Love this color combination and have similar items so I pinned this before I even got down to the bottom where you talk about the giveaway! Would love to win the beautiful necklace. So true that we put others before ourselves and so important to be kind to ourselves too.
