Once again I am doing a twist on the GYPO Spring Style Challenge,
and this time it was due to not having a great pair of dark straight or skinny jeans.
To be more specific, not a pair that fit me right now.
Today’s Outfit suggestion was to embrace the Denim on Denim Trend.
This was the one that caused the most stress among the challengers and I wish I had been able to pull it of myself.
This is a great example of how the rend looks, of course for those in the challenge, a pair of bright flats are more suitable for the Spring vibe…
Speaking of Spring Flats, I purchased these from Amazon just for the Spring Challenge.
My Chambray top is from Old Navy and again my bag is from Just Fab.
As for my Jeans, what can I say, I am addicted to my Diane Gilman Jeans!
They never disappoint and have stretch that works for this frustrating time of weight fluctuations.
I loved this color combo and my new shoes are going to get a lot of use…
I have several ideas already for them…
If you haven’t added bright flats to your Spring Wardrobe, I highly recommend them.
Keeping it real, I added the jacket as the temperature was cool enough to warrant
it for my walk to the grocery store.
Gratitude
I am so grateful that I went back to bed this morning and caught up on some much needed sleep.
I am grateful for the fun of the Style Challenge and making these looks all my own.
I am grateful for the mess up and one pound weight gain from yesterday, as sometimes we can get complacent and wake up calls are good motivation.
I am grateful for the fun of going to the grocery store with my son to pick out fun marinades for Chicken, we have our two favorites and picked up two new ones as well.
I am grateful that tomorrow is Friday, it’s a long week,when you are waiting for birthday surprises for your child and I still have to wait for Sunday for most…

Since, Today is officially the first day of Winter, I thought it was time for my faux fur vest to come out and play… I was feeling very blue today, which I think is related to the Connecticut tragedy and the loss of my son’s school mate to brain cancer. So I paired my vest with my Chambray shirt and jeggings.
When taking the photos, even my seventeen year old noticed my mood… I don’t like that at all… I am also having PMS and think this is part of it as well…The sun wasn’t shining today either. Yesterday my son ran back in to get his shades because it was so bright now no sun and tomorrow we are expecting rain. I remember the short seven months I lived in Massachusetts during the winter months and how much I missed the sun shining. So glad my husband moved me back to Virginia.
I really like how comfortable I am in this. I have been wearing my shooties with heels a lot lately and really liked walking around in these flats. Too bad I am finished with all the hustle and bustle and shopping because this would have made a great Mom on the Go look.
Time to turn on some music and get into a better frame of mind. Might have to remove these boots as the rubber soles won’t be good for dancing! Even writing about music and dancing already lifted my spirit!
What do you do to take care of yourself on days you feel a little off? Dear readers, your comments are welcomed and much appreciated.
Gratitude: I am so glad today is the last day of school for my seventeen year old. It has been really tough to have two college siblings and a home schooling one all on vacation while he still had two weeks to go… I am grateful that tomorrow is my husband’s last day of work before his vacation.
