I don’t know if you are seeing the same thing in your neck of the woods, but in mine

Maxi dresses being worn everywhere!   

I seriously can’t go anywhere lately without spotting a dozen women in maxi dresses! 

Linking up with Visible Monday!

When the Summer Style Me Pretty Challenge, suggested a maxi paired with a denim vest, I couldn’t have been more delighted, because wearing vests is right up my alley…

The funny thing is that more often and not I tend to add knitted shrugs to maxi dresses , so this is a twist for me and a great thing about doing a styling challenge.   

I just love the ease and comfort of a maxi! 

I absolutely get the biggest kick out of the fact that as a petite woman, that I can buy a maxi and not have to wear it…

I guess as my mother would have said, it’s thanks to her family Campbell DNA with long arms a long legs…

Of course it’s funny to think as a 53″ woman, in comparison to my sister and brother, that somehow we are similar…

I backed of the self tanner this past week , but can see I need to add a little…

I’ve noticed a very funny phenomenon these last few weeks of wearing my fedora more often….

I seem to be catching the eye of men more often …

It’s really very funny….

Dear Readers.  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and had time to relax and spend time with family and friends.

Weekends really are what we live for!  

As for my outfit, the dress is one I found on NoMorerack.com (the link is to all the maxi’s currnetly offered at fabulous prices!) 

vest found last season at Cato(they have several available at this link!)

, sandals from Payless and purse from Nine West outlet store…

Gratitude

I am grateful that I caught up on sleep and felt much better today!

I am grateful that I had the energy to make several batches of Weight Watcher Vegetable Fritattas, to keep me on track this next week  and beyond as I froze some!   

I am grateful for being a mother of boys…. they truly bring so much joy to my life!

I am grateful that my son heard back from his roommate for next year , as I didn’t realize how much the week without a response had stressed my kid who doesn’t get stressed…

I am grateful that my daughter’s birthday is coming next weekend and that we will have a day to celebrate her before she heads off to grad school!  

I am grateful for my brother and his talk and reminder to have faith and turn my worries over in prayer!
