Rocking my Neil Diamond concert tee and the bling Aerosoles 

I bought while in Vegas..

And let’s not forget that Charming Charlies hat I picked up in Vegas…

I was hoping the faceted silver studding of the “Diamond Girl” would show up, 

but trust me it’s a wonderful bling tee…

I don’t think these Chadwick’s Linen shorts are the most flattering, 

but have to say, they are the most comfortable!   

I bought lavender ones last year and went back this year for the orange shade…

My yellow purse is the one thing I bought for the challenge, as I had a crossbody style in yellow, but this is more versatile and a sunnier yellow!  

It’s this one from Amazon and comes in other colors…

Dear Readers, the GYPO challenge even stretched this blogger…. On my own I would have paired this outfit with my red-orange Dooney and Bourke purse to play off the orange….Adding in a third color is a hard thing for me and my matchy tendency… I like that even a confident person who loves color can learn something from this challenge…

Dear Readers, How confident are you when it comes to mixing colors????

Gratitude

I am grateful my oldest came to visit today, this last day with my daughter and he brought his new bird and she was so sweet… he moved out a year ago and has now invested in two birds that have long lives of about 30 years… He swears this is it…

I am grateful for this last day with my daughter and the fun chatter as we all hung out together.

I am grateful that my husband surprised us by coming home and had a huge break in his day to spend with us! 

I am grateful that my knee is feeling much better today!  

I am grateful for AC and will keep repeating this as I cannot take it for granted on this 101 degree record breaking day!
