Versatile Style by Tracey

I  don’t know what is wrong with me, but we are only halfway through Summer and I am bored with summer dressing… I was afraid this would happen since in the colder temps I became aware that my happiness factor increased with the addition of edgier pieces ( for a middle aged woman) such as moto jackets, boots or shooties with skirts.

 Unfortunately these temps don’t leave much room for such creativity and I am craving it… Being a person who looks for solutions,  I decided to shop some clearance sales and headed to the Kohl’s website… If I can’t wear winter fun clothes, I can shop for them…

Paisley Skinny Cords  for just $9.60

Since burgundy it still going to be in for this fall/winter season I couldn’t resist these at that price!

Coated Jeans by Jennifer Lopez  for just $ 12.80

I wish these were skinny’s instead of straight legged, but willing to give them a shot .  I so wanted coated jeans last fall but with so much to replace due to my weight loss they just didn’t make it into the budget.

Plaid Skinny Jeans by  Rock Republic for just $17.60

The word is that plaid is going to be really big for this upcoming Fall and I loved these and can’t wait to pair them with black jacket and booties !

And I also found these skirts on Ebay!

 I love this green Ralph Lauren A-line for just $8.77 (including shipping) , which is on it’s way and will have it’s debut soon! 

This Kenneth Cole  was just $5.90 (incl. shipping) , arrived and is perfect!  I tried styling it with both my burgundy moto and newest grey jacket for winter and loved them both with it!

Dear Readers,  I think I need to figure out how to get back into having fun with summer styles, but this week, it was great to take a break and think of winter… Before I know it the magazines filled with all the Fall trends will be here and I can delve more into that!  I think I need to come up with some kind of challenge to keep my spirits up for the next few weeks… Maybe I will have to look at some Pinterest Inspirations or find a piece to style several ways… Will think of something over the weekend!  

COME BACK TOMORROW AND SEE MY NEW HAIRCUT AND COLOR!  

Gratitude

I am grateful that my 17 year old was only joking when he called and told me he had bought a cat today!  

I am grateful that I spent the day in my new workout gear and worked out for the first time since the AC problem…

I am grateful that my hair appoinment is finally here and I will be there Thursday morning!

I am grateful that my daughter kept 3 out of the 4 items I bought for her recently!!!
