I Love Wearing Dresses and Skirts for Summer, 

So, Why Not Do an Entire Week Of Them. 

I begin with an outfit mostly from Target.  

I thrifted this dress last year from Goodwill as part of the new goods Target passes on to them. 

I loved my black and white floral Keds so much last season,

that when I saw these blue ones in Target on clearance, I couldn’t resist.  

I went for a Sporty look for the dress because my niece and I went for a walk

to Burlington Coat Factory.  

As my regular readers know , nothing tickles my fancy more than 

a Ying/Yang juxtaposition of opposites and dresses and sneakers 

are such a fun version of that.  

Sporty Luxe is a trend right now that promises to continue through Fall/Winter.  

Orange and blue is such a great color combo , 

so it was an easy choice when deciding to pair my

Charming Charlies Necklace. 

I didn’t take a purse on my walk…

I did with my niece what I do with my own kids when I take a walk and don’t have pockets…

I just asked her to hold my debit card in her pocket, lol 

This elephant t-shirt was what we purchased at Burlington.  

My niece (12) had been telling me she wanted both an elephant and an

owl shirt.   I found that funny as my daughter bought an elephant one last year and 

an owl one this year.  

Gratitude

I am grateful for all the kind-hearted , non-toxic people in my life. 

I am grateful that I was able to take a walk and my knee shows no signs of flaring up. 

I am grateful for the wonderful support of my husband. 

I am grateful for the amazing insights of my daughter, who can always look at a situation and get right to the heart of it. 

I am grateful that due to an appointment with an Orthopedist (to double check the xray that looks like his ankle is not broken), that I will have one extra day with my son.  He’ll be heading back to college, Thursday instead of the scheduled Wednesday.
