Do you know?...

Hey y'all...Happy Thursday! Do you know if you've officially recuperated from last weeks food festivities?  Happy December! Do you know there are 23 more shopping days?  Happy World AIDS day?  Do you know your status?  Things aren't like they used to be with AIDS...knowing your status can mean a longer life.  Please get tested and be safe!

I hope this week has been going well for you!  It has been an up and down kind of week for me.  Do you know I ended up with an ear infection...boooooo.  I am on antibiotics and on the mend though.   Today's featured look is a fit that I wore a little bit ago.  As I mentioned to you before I have been trying to step out of the box fashionably and this was definitely a few steps out...mixing prints.  I did a baby step with mixing dots and stripes and it felt pretty good so I was ready for more!

Ditchin' My Football Mom Digs

Greetings my fellow bloggers! 

It has been a typical Saturday for me.  What is typical for me as of late is spending all day on the football field and not being able to accept invites to different events because I'm either too tired or like I already said on the football field.   Today my son's team won the first round of the Regional Tourney!!!  This means we will be right back out there tomorrow for the Championship game.  Go STORM!  It is bittersweet because win or lose this will be the last game for us.  This season started on July 11th.  Can we say looooooong time ago.  The coaching staff and parents have decided to opt out of the Nationals.  It requires too much time, energy and money to take 20+ 8-10 year olds to Orlando.  So the train stops here and we will settle with being the League, the State and hopefully the Regional champions!

As for tonight...I am ditchin' my football mom digs for some diva digs...lol. I am going to a friend's birthday get together she is having at her home. This evening should be full of good food, laughs and fun. Here is what I am wearing. (I had these pics snapped when I shoulda been taking a nap...smh)
 I usually wear this Dolman sleeve turtleneck with skinny jeans and pumps but after today I am tired and I want to be as comfortable as possible. So my wide leg Levis and wedge booties will have to do.
It is nippy out now in the DC metro area so I will wear my motorcycle jacket that I've had forever!  I paid $50 for this baby in Leather Man.  I still can't believe it...lol

 Me and my four-legged baby...Princess :-)

The Comfortable Diva Digs:
Dolman Turtleneck: Ashley Stewart (2 yrs ago)
