It's A Wrap!!

Remember this Lilly Pulitzer wrap skirt I wore about a month ago? I told you then that it was reversible. So today, I reversed it and wore the other side.  You've gotta like paying $8 for a Lilly skirt and being able to wear it like 2 different skirts!

 I had a hard time finding something to wear with this side.  I don't think I was thinking outside the box enough. And I just ended up wearing a white tank. At least it has an interesting neckline.  What color would you guys put with this?

Jake wanted his picture made, too!

I'm actually writing this post from Pigeon Forge. Yesterday I attended the wedding of a daughter of my other best friend, B.  It was everything a wedding should be. Beautiful, sweet and surrounded with love from family and friends.  They got married next to a gorgeous stream in Gatlinburg, TN.

 

 

See how pretty?

And speaking of pretty, Leah looked pretty good in her skirt and purple shirt, too! (The wedding was purple, so we tried to stick to the theme. The flowers at the top of the post were the brides bouquet.)

I found the perfect dress, for me, a couple of weeks ago at Ross. I knew I wanted a maxi dress, but I just couldn't find one that was a. the color I wanted and b. inexpensive.  This dress was both! I snagged this baby for $17! And a pair of thongs previously bought at Kohl's for $10 completed the outfit! I added the Soul Friends necklace that B gave me for my birthday, some navy and purple earrings and I was ready to go!  Oh, funny story.  Leah forgot to pack my hairbrush when she was finished with it Thursday.  So, here we are in the hotel, trying to get ready, me trying to tame this 'fro I've got going on and I have NO hairbrush! I had a comb and my fingers. Yeah. 

Congratulations to the newly weds!! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness!!

Of "Lillys" and Dragonflies

Hey, Blogworld!! Yes. I know. I've been MIA, and I'm sorry. I just haven't been feeling it, you know? I haven't wanted to have my picture taken. I  don't know what's been wrong with me. I just wasn't feeling it.

And I SHOULD be feeling it because Spring and Summer are my seasons! I LIVE for warm (HOT) weather. I also get a little Spring Fever and just want to play hooky from everything!  But, I'm back! I promise to try to post more. It won't be everyday, but I'll try at least a couple of times a week.

So, yesterday, Lise posted a picture of me in a cute, floral Coldwater Creek skirt that I scored at PS Too for $6. It still had the tags on it, people!  Viktoria, from Viktoria with a K,  said I looked "Lilly" inspired. Well, today I decided to actually wear some Lilly. Lilly Pulitzer, of course. I don't know if Lilly is big where you are, but it definitely is, in the South.  This skirt is another SCORE. I found this skirt, again, WITH TAGS, in a thrift store in Commerce, GA.  The tag said $119. I paid $8!! HOLY BARGAIN BATMAN!   AFTER I paid, I asked the girl if she knew what she had. (There were 2 more on the rack.) She said, No. It's just a skirt. I was like, Sweetie. It's a Lilly. You may not know what it is but those sorority girls at UGA do. Mark them up to $25 and put them on Craigslist during Rush Week! LOL

It's a reversible wrap skirt! I'll wear the other side another day.

Isn't that watch cute?! Leah found it when we went to Charming Charlie on Tuesday. I was going to be GOOD and just look, but she knows my weakness. And it is palm trees. A watch with palm trees AND a sparkly turtle?! Yes, please!

A few weeks ago, Lise brought me back the cutest dragonfly earrings from Dollywood. (In the picture above) They are like stained glass. I seriously don't know how I ever lived without these earrings. If I can't figure out what earrings are going to match, I know the dragonflies will! I think I've worn them 3 or 4 days a week since she gave them to me!!

There seems to be one other item I can't seem to live without lately. And that's my nude, thong sandals. Yes. I'm calling them thong sandals and NOT flip flops! They seem to go with EVERYTHING. And they were another score. Goodwill. $5. I don't think they'd ever been worn. The bottoms didn't look like they'd ever touched the ground. And I beat Lise to them! HA!

Got any article of clothing or piece of jewelry that you can't seem to live without?
