Jailhouse Rock


Everybody in the whole cell block, was dancing to the jailhouse rock!

Elvis' birthday is Saturday so I think all this week I will incooperate something into my outfit to remember Elvis. I was inspired by Vanessa over at Big Girl, Small Budget, Tiny Town after her fabulous 12 Days of Christmas. I don't think that will ever be matched, much less topped. But she made me want to do a theme.

Today I'm wearing black pants with white pinstrips like the black and white he wore when he performed the song. I'm also wearing a red Ann Taylor shirt because he wore red on that album cover. (I know, it's a stretch. Go with it.)  I also  have on my other new, awesome black fur vest. I got this on clearance at Belk's for $11!! Lise and I were shopping together that day and we had separated for a little bit. We saw each other and both us said, LOOK WHAT I FOUND!! I held up the black fur vest, she held up one just like it but white! It was hysterical to us!




I apologize for my pictures today. They are a little blurry/grainy. I'm not sure what Blake did when he was taking them.

Happy Monday!
