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.

Before we get to the meat of this post can we talk about husbands for a minute?  Specifically husbands and driving.

Yeah.....I'm gonna go there.  WTH.  It's like when I turn around and look at him in the drivers seat he is wearing a helmet and a number on his shirt.  I feel like I should be sitting in a cage for protection.  I am always saying...... when he decides to get to the "front" of the line of every car within a 10 mile radius.....OK....I bet you taught that guy a lesson.  He is probably going to turn his life around and be a better driver now.  

You can bet on that.

OK....just needed to vent for a minute.

My nephew is getting married in July and I have been stressing about what to wear.  

I want to be comfortable.

Here is where I started....

This dress from Nordstrom's

I really liked it but I started thinking I might need a lot of undergarments [think spanks] to pull it off.

Spanks=not comfortable.

Same with this little number by DVF at Nordstrom's.

Then I came up with the crazy idea that I could pull off some pretty black pants and a nice top.  That way I could wear them separately again.

The girl helping me brought me these St John palazzo pants. They were on major sale.

But....they were a size 6 and I really need an 8. Think spanks again.  Plus...I just felt like they were too dressy.  More "black tie".

This Parker top was really pretty with them and it had a fun back.

So.....I made one more cruise through the racks.

I found these.  On sale!

 Linen...perfect size and oh so comfortable.

And this Rebecca Taylor Die Cut Lace top. [Looks like it is no longer on the web site].

Now before you get all crazy and say "WHAT....a crop top?".  Have you lost your mind?  Do you know how old you are......

The pants have a really high waist so there is no skin showing.  Swear.

Jewelry....I will probably wear my hair back in a low pony so then I can wear some dangly earrings.  Love these from Stella and Dot.

With a few bracelets...both from Stella and Dot.

These shoes I scored at DSW from Rachel Zoe on sale!

So dang comfortable with a cute little heel.

 I could also wear a necklace and no bracelets.....

 I'm set now.  The good thing is that everything is interchangeable....and can be worn again.  

Allrighty then....hope you guys have a kick ass weekend.

Cami got her summer buzz cut.....she wants to know if it makes her nose look bigger :)
