Burnt Orange, Cobalt and Polka Dots

Hi all...Great Monday Morning!

I had a pretty good weekend.  It was pretty uneventful but that isn't a bad thing. 

Me and the boys got out and enjoyed the beautiful weather on Saturday. 

It was gorgeous and just had me all ready for Spring!

I am at work today but don't feel bad for me because we observe President's day at the end of the year along with Veteran's day and Columbus day and get the week after Christmas off. 

Today's outfit was inspired by the fabulous Prissy over at Rush Our Fashion.  Prissy, did a post on her blog some time ago and I said then that I would put together something similar because I had the pieces and I loved her look.  I am just getting around to doing it. 

See my inspiration for this outfit, Prissy's version here.

I opted to go with some Cobalt shoes and purse.  As you may have noticed, orange and blue are faves of mine to pair. 

It was a beautifully breezy day.  I wish I had on a dress or something flowy to create some photo magic...lol.

I'm Bossy!

Hey Fashion Friends!

I trust all of you had a great Christmas and now enjoying the 2nd day (Kujichagulia -Self-Determination) of Kwanzaa.  My holiday have been great thus far.  I had a difficult situation to get through right before Christmas which was the worse timing ever but all I can say is...GOD!!!  My God is awesome! You know the mothers of the church always say that He can do anything but fail and then get all excited when they think of His goodness...well the closer I get to my golden years the more and more I have those feelings.  Let the church say "Amand" say "Amand" again!

Today's outfit feature a Christmas present to myself.  Merry Christmas to meeeee!

Naughty Monkey's Bossy!

What I love about this shoe is all the different textures.  The patent leather toe, the leather upper, the leopard, the zipper trim and the studded heel...I mean gosh there is so much going on with this shoe and I just LOVE it!  

I styled these shoes with my trendy camel color wool blazer and my thrifted burnt orange slacks.  I first featured these slacks here.  When I wore the slacks then, it was my first time wearing them and I said the next time I wore them I would take the hem out and that is just what I did.  I am happy with the length now. 

I can't wait to style these shoes with other outfits.  I am seeing them with my leather skirt and pants, distressed jeans and my motorcycle jacket or even  my black wrap dress.  So many possibilities!
