All I could thnk of when I put this look together was the fun element 

of texture in the open weaved knit sweater ,

the moto detailed pants, the necklace and the straw hat. 

I love adding black with pastels, but since it’s summer, 

I added a few elements of white into the mix with the purse,

a white bracelet, the silver necklace and the navy and white striped hat.  

I have been loving the look of the moto style pants for a long time, 

but every time I’ve seen them they’ve been around the $40 mark and I 

just wasn’t sure I like them enough to warrant that cost.  

Alas Jane.com kept having them on repeatedly for $34.99 , so I finally indulged.

In fact , they are currently available Here

I’ve come to the conclusion that I will love these a lot more with the weight loss I am 

currently working towards.  

Today was a very low key day, just hanging out and relaxing with my kids….

With all the days we’ve been going bowling to help prepare my son for his State Tournament 

this weekend , it was a nice break for us all.  

Tomorrow is another day of bowling practice, lol…

This week leading up to the bowling tournament is going to be busy, but the good news is that 

it’s close to our area this time( last year was 5-6 hours away)  and we don’t have to get a hotel for the two day event.

 He is also not bowling first thing in the mornings,

so that makes it easier for us to travel the 45 minutes to an hour for the two different locations.  

With him taking first in individuals for his division  and first overall in City, the pressure is on.  

I love this sport because he gets to bowl based on his average and how well he does above that average,

so he’s really just trying to do his own best score.
