Sunday Musings…

Hi Darlings

My posts are a little scant right now, because life is really busy, lots going on, and has also taken an unusual turn, but in the very near future, I will be making important lifestyle changes, where I’ll be able to do exactly what I truly love… “Blog, Style, Vintage™” Stay tuned! Sometimes you take on a project, which in the beginning you thought was going to enhance your life, but instead has caused you to continually turn to God, to help get you through each day! Without going into details, it has yet been another teaching moment to guide me through this exciting, and wonderful, yet complicated journey called life. No matter, what, I am Truly Blessed Beyond Measure!

This quote really spoke to me today…

This weekend in DC was simply glorious!! We truly could not have asked for more, the sky was azure blue, with snow-white clouds and a lovely breeze, even in the high 80’s.

Everywhere I went, everyone just seemed so happy, and there were tons of babies everywhere which is always an adorable sight to see. Church as always was a joy to attend. I truly love this time of year.

I want to wish you a beautifully blessed week, and until next time, remember to…

I’m re-posting my anthem, “I’m Every Woman” by Chaka Khan for the “I’m Every Woman” out in this world. Click on the link and enjoy!

Until next time… Peace, Love & Blessings

Too Late Marimekko…

In Daily Chronicles, Daily Musings on May 22, 2014 at 3:42 pm

Well guess who overslept and woke up at a 7:00 a.m. to try to snag that gorgeous Marimekko skirt from Banana Republic, only to find out that the sale was open to card holders (which I’m one) 2 days early, and that it was the first item to go!!!! This is what happens when you have too many things going on at the same time!! I need an assistant… Stat!

I was able to snag the strapless dress, which if I like it, will become my Saturday running errands dress. For all of you who were able to grab the skirt… Congrats!! I do have several skirts in the same style as the Marimekko skirt, so I’m not too crushed about it. Apparently it’s also in stores, but I really don’t have time to run around looking for it.

The 2 days too late skirt!!!

Wishing you a gorgeous and blessed Memorial weekend.

and remember…

Life is too short

Banana Republic, Marimekko & Me…

In Daily Chronicles, Monday Musings on May 12, 2014 at 2:20 pm

Well Darlings, I for one, cannot wait for the release of the limited edition capsule collection from Banana Republic and Marimekko. Now this is a collaboration I can work with. I will have my Banana card at the ready, especially for the skirt above. I love a full midi skirt with side pockets, which is always a classic and timeless look.

Marimekko’s signature bold prints have graced clothes, fabrics, furniture, and tableware; and now Banana Republic has collaborated with the Finland based brand to come up with what in my opinion, will be a sell out collection {especially that skirt!}.

The two looks below are also on my radar, I’m loving those cropped pants!!

Set your smart phone/tablet a few days ahead, to remind you, the collection debuts in select stores and online May 22.
