Enjoy the rest of your week, my friends! I will be back on Sunday to regale you with our adventures!
My, what big shoulders you have, my dear!
ReplyDeleteAren't they, though??
DeleteFYI regarding your golden earrings. I have some that look like that, only in the color fushia, and they are vintage Avon that I purchased off of Etsy. I think yours might be Avon too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Gerrilyn! I don't think they are Avon, as they are very good about stamping their logo/name on everything they make. I think mine are older.
DeleteLuv the purple hair and bright red puff sleeve jacket!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteEnjoy your well deserved time off! I hope that they do not call you and interrupt your fun! I was once signed off work for a while after losing my voice - they had the cheek to call me and ask me to fix a problem. I literally had no voice so had to scribble down responses to my sister (who answered my phone for me) to try and get it sorted. I was very unimpressed when I went back in, and after a few more incidents like that I quit. Anyway, rude manners aside, your outfit is lovely and I hope you have a great time!
ReplyDeleteNo calls, I'm happy to report! That is awful, glad you quit! Thank you, Mica! It's been wonderful.
DeleteYou could always be on a "remote island" where you just don't have access!!! Have a wonderful staycaytion! Looking forward to your fun pics and stories! Happy birthday to L! It's my birthday week also! Us Geminis! We are sooo fun! 😉
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful as always... Bigass shoulders and all!!!
Yes, I am kind of like that already, as I don't have a cell phone! Thank you! It's been a lovely week.
DeleteHow lovely to be having a well deserved break - I do know how hard you work!
ReplyDeleteThat jacket is the cat's pyjama's. In other words it's blooming fantastic. I bet you really wowed them at work in this get up!
Have a lovely break x

It's been wonderful to have the time off. Thank you! It's a very "Anna" jacket!
DeleteOhhh Gaga in the house ! What a great way to exit the door as you go on vacation ! I could not expect less from you leaving an impression.
ReplyDeleteYes, look out! Ha! Thank you, Lorena!
DeleteWhat an interesting jacket that is. Anyone who was around in the 1980s would be comfortable with ginormous shoulders! I love the idea of recycled roses all over the jacket, too.
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is really lovely; I hope it doesn't wear out anytime soon.

Yes, definitely, although the retro shoulders are a little much these days, even for me. Thank you! The fabric is starting to fray. Sad.
DeleteFrom cowgirl boots a few posts back to power shoulders! Fabulous, Sheila. I rediscovered an 80's plaid trouser suit with the same shoulders, but it's going to Ebay to find a new set of shoulders (my waist isn't the same tiny as the trousers waist any more!!) Hope you're having a great weekend. xx
ReplyDeleteI am kind of all over the map, style-wise! How marvelous - but yes, those tiny waists!
DeleteLoving that statement sleeve! Gorgeous and fun to wear and really fun to watch you wear. I would do battle with you in a grocery store though. Love the recycled bit, very smart.
ReplyDeleteThe good care of that skirt, it is a beauty, even if it is worn.
That Trifari bracelet is a beauty.
enjoy some R&R.
xx, Elle

Thank you, Elle! It's so fun to wear - people really give the "side eye"!
DeleteI remember seeing that jacket when H&M first came out with it, but even though I really liked it, there was no way I was paying full price for it, so congrats on finding one secondhand.
ReplyDeleteI was so happy to find it - it's a great piece.
