My goodness....y'all know how to make a person feel special:)  So glad you liked my One Room Challenge that I completed for my sister!  She's happy....I'm happy so all is right with my world right now.

Don't worry you know I am working on a post with lots of details so hang tight!

But.....I did want to share this fashion post that I put together last week before it's out of style....haha.

I've done a little spring shopping....I know.... you would think "where did she find the time?"

But I did!  Some I ordered and some I snagged while I was out and about because you know all the summer stuff will be gone by July 1st.

I love these pants....I tried wide leg last year but couldn't get on board.....I do think the trick is to wear a higher heel!

 

Last year I bought a similar dress from J Crew Factory and it became a staple during the dog days of summer!  I love the Bag from H&M!



I wanted to show you a different look with the wide leg pants!  I have the black top from BR and I also have a similar fanny pack which is so fun!


I'm not sure I can wear this dress without a jacket....no matter how much you work out...those arms just don't cooperate :) But...it was so cheap I am not bothered if I don't wear it that much....




I took a trip up to J Crew Factory last Sunday and picked up a few things....so much value!




I can't wait to wear this dress from H&M!  So cute...

I did buy this shirt at BR and wore it yesterday !  I love it.

I think I am into lemons lately:)

And these were on sale plus 40% off....so I couldn't resist!

I ordered this from BP in a size 10 which is what I generally wear and couldn't hardly get my arms in it!  WTH?


And I picked up this navy t- shirt to wear with white jeans!

Alrighty then unfortunately I have a couple of appointments today so I gotta get moving:)

Happy Shopping!

Can it be Friday already?  I kind of had a 2 day work week and it was pretty nice.......although it does nothing for my 10 page "to do" list.

So fall fashion....I did a lot of my purchasing back on Labor Day weekend so I am slowing pulling out things muttering "holy cow I bought some stuff...."

But y'all know I like to keep it basic and pretty simple so there isn't much thought process when pulling things to wear.  

When I was getting my outfits together for the 7 events [House Beautiful sponsor parties] it was black and white and variations of black on black HA HA!

Matthew Quinn remarked "Oh hi Sherry....more #blackandwhite....?  Why yes Matthew there is enough color in this house so I want to stand out :)"

Just saying....

So here we go.....


I bought 2 of the Teddy sweaters at J Crew Factory [buy one get one free!] while in Florida.  The green earrings and small clutch are from Banana Republic...as are the pants!  This is a great day to night with the addition of the green don't cha think?


A little more shopping in Florida at J Crew Factory!  The puffer vest in black and the loafers [which are very comfy!] I bought the tortoise earrings from J Crew and were only 19.50!

Denim shirt is from J Crew Factory and pants  [which I have] and bag are from Banana Republic


OK....this one is pretty easy too! The sweater is from J Crew Factory, and the black coat, the scarf  the earrings are from J Crew.  The shoes and pants are from Banana Republic....always wait for the sale!


What is hotter than booties this fall?  I mean....
The black sweater coat I bought last year at J Crew Factory and I might need to get another as I have it on heavy rotation! Bag, jeans, t shirt, booties....thinking hard about these!

And this one might scare you....

Yes.... I bought at DSW.  It wasn't much of an investment as they are quite trendy right!  And....then I had to research to actually see the best way for me to wear them cause I was a little worried.  I know what you are thinking.

I'm too old.  Nah.....I'm going for it!


I tried on a furry jacket and it was ridiculous.  Not for me.

Then I saw this on LIKE to KNOW it Fashion_Jackson.  I think I can pull this one off.  



I ordered the coat....I had some credits and decided to take back another coat I had purchased so I wasn't out that much!  The sunglasses....the jeans....the purse

I'll let you know when the coat arrives and we will discuss.  I did wear them last night to meet my sister and her husband for dinner with jeans, white t shirt, and a leather jacket.  I felt pretty good until my sister started singing...."these boots are made for walking....."

And laughed.

I've turned into a slug....no seriously this much needed weekend off [which I had big plans for.....think getting organized] kind of took a backseat to doing pretty much nothing.....except for catching up on OZARK!  I'm 4 episodes in and it's riveting.....#ruthforpresident

I'm actually writing this on Monday so there is still hope that I can check a few things off my list!

Let you know on Friday:)

Had to finally take Cami to the vet on Sat morning.  [Thinking that I did not want to take her to the weekend/holiday vet and spend my whole fall budget on the bill....ha ha.]

Anyway they gave me an arsenal of meds to help with her situation and as of this morning I would say there is a 10% change in her condition!

Like I said last week.....I was aiming for some fall shopping while the sales were hot!  To say I stocked up for fall is an understatement.  Yikes I may have gone a little overboard.

That's what returns are for :)

I have a few events coming up....and one is the opening of my Pinewood Forest showhouse.  Now I'm not one to throw on a dress....[the one I bought in the spring I still have not worn] so I thought I would show you guys how I will extend the life of "white jeans" through fall.

  
This is what I am planning on wearing!  Navy and white are always classic but the lace top will add some pizazz!
top  [bought!]
shoes  [and these]
earrings
jeans  [bought these also]

So let's take those white jeans further into fall.  Paired with some camel!  I bought this top so I'm all set!

I bought this sweater jacket in black last spring from J Crew Factory but when I went back to get the camel one it was gone.  So glad they brought it back because the one they have at J Crew has funky sleeves on it....and I didn't like the cut.

OK...I am smitten with these gold shoes!  So I tried to figure out how would I wear them!  Of course Madewell hardly ever has sales....so I'm holding off on that purchase!
top
jacket
earrings
jeans
shoes

Here are some other things I bought!


Yes....I caved and bought these pants from Banana Republic!  I had to right....black and white?


I guess I lied about not buying a dress....I forgot I bought this one.  I'm on the fence but since everything was on sale I purchased and will play around with it!

And these black suede loafer.
I am definitely on the fence about these jeans.....but again....that is what returns are for.

Wanted to buy....All from Club Monaco....where everything was a rare 25% off.  Should have bought that wrap.



Shopping is so much fun....the thrill of the hunt!  Did y'all do any damage?  Spill it!

THIS AND THAT





I forgot to tell you this....I am now down 16 lbs on my Weight Watchers journey!  I admit I had gotten frustrated and stopped weighing myself for a few weeks....stuck at 13 pounds.  

I was still at it....cheating every now and then in some social situations....but then last week I got the courage [I know that sounds stupid] [#issues] to step on the scale and was shocked!

Maybe those few cheat days jump started my metabolism....who knows....I'll take it!

What is really weird is that I can still wear all my clothes...they just fit me now!  Hee Haw

Anyway I'm not going to get cocky cause you know how that goes....takes 4 months to lose it and a week to gain it back!

I've got a little This and That for you today.  Even though I worked hard on my Pinewood Showhouse last week I can't really put gobs of pictures on here as it is getting photographed for Atlanta Magazine's Home coming out in the fall!

As I said..... I practically outfitted the whole space from World Market.  Sunday I was doing all my returns and they had restocked some new stuff!



I know everyone isn't into tribal but it sure is pretty and colorful!




Remember when Pier One had all the great baskets......WM had definitely taken the lead on that right?

And by the way....LOVING these organic dishes!

Returning things to HomeGoods....I saw these goodies!



I truly wanted this bench so badly....and it would have worked well in my showhouse...but the trick is to return and get the heck outta there without buying something new right?  #hardtodo


Since I am a true lover of anything rattan..... these caught my eye at Decades Antiques in Atlanta!


I picked this tile for a project...so smitten with it's organic feel!

These bathrooms coming together for the HB project.....

Circa Lighting Sconce


Love the color of this house going up in Pinewood Forest.....

And my friends Jennifer Schoenberger and Lindsey Hene put this pretty combo together for their space!  What is better than animal, plaid and a little geometric all together! 

We are using this custom textile line from Abbot and Atlas at the HB showhouse!





And I bought these from J Crew.


Reading this!  So good.

I gotta tell ya.....I am pretty tired of schlepping bags of design related items out of the store, in my house.....out of my house and into the car....etc.

I've hit my limit.  Who knew I had one....guess I found out :)

Today is another day....and more deadlines so off I go!
