I love trying out dresses from Jane.com
This is one I got from there and it’s a gauzy lined one with 3.4 sleeves and aztec embroidery.
I assumed when looking at this one, that it would indeed be too short for me to wear as a dress,
but would make a great tunic and layering piece for Fall/Winter.
It was quite a windy day and made for fun trying to get my
sweater to cooperate. I love the multi media sweater I bought on clearance
over the summer because it is lighter weight and a good option for these days of hot flashes.
The good news is that is was a wonderful Sunny Day!
I want to note that as a petite woman, it works best when layering this length ,
to have the dress or tunic and sweater length to be similar , creating only one
horizontal break. Shorter jackets or sweaters just make for the wrong proportions.
My burgundy leggings are by Kate & Mallory found HERE,
and part of my switching from cheap F21 leggings to Ponte knit versions.
I’ve had great sucess with both these and the Old Navy ones.
My purse and shoes are both thrifted items , which I get a lot of use from.
Dear Readers, two days with no migraines makes for a happy Tracey, lol!
I was able to do a make up coffee date, which turned into mall walking and dinner too,
7 with a dear friend before she takes off for a 3 month
trip to see her children and grandchildren, which made for a good day!
Wishing You All A Fabulous Weekend!!!!
Gratitude
I am grateful for a fun day with a dear friend.
I am grateful for a fun chat with my daughter as she discussed things she wants to do when she comes home for Thanksgiving!
I am grateful for the extra sleep (I fell back asleep after an inital 8am. wake up and awoke at 12:45!)
I am grateful for the love of family and friends, and for my Dear Readers and fellow bloggers.

Tracey, have you ever tried essential oils for your headaches? I don’t sell them or have any ulterior motive. But Peppermint has helped me. Rubbing a little on the back of my neck and even smelling it from the bottle has brought me relief. Just thought I’d mention it.

Yes, I have tried it but not much luck with that. Vicks vapor rub has helped better, rubbed into my temples.
