Ladies and Gentleman! ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!!

We're caught in a trap, I can't walk out, because
I love you too much baby.

Suspicious Minds is always the song I think of when I think of Vegas Elvis. I'm not a huge fan of this Elvis. This is an Elvis ravished by drugs and fame and the vultures that fed off him and his money. This Elvis makes me sad. :(

BUT no Elvis week would be complete without Elvis in a cape. So here's my tribute to him, for his birthday tomorrow. Red cape from Coldwater Creek , white sequins, lots of pearls and the black velvet pants again. Sadly, I just don't have a white jumpsuit.



I am still dealing with seizure puppy and I am just so tired, so please forgive the forced smiles above! I was trying, y'all!

I hope you all have a great weekend!!

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!
