In Those Jeans...

I hope everyone had a nice holiday and was able to surround themselves with family, friends and love as we expressed our gratitude to all of the men and women who gave their lives for our everyday freedoms. We are forever indebted to our Armed Forces. Thank you.

So a few weeks ago, I'm in Target minding my own business. Just making a normal run for household stuff, when all of a sudden the clearance racks start calling my name. I tried to ignore them. Ok, well not really. But if I did, I would have never found the most perfect jeans. It was meant to be!! At least that's how I see it. Yes, you are reading that correctly! The tag says $13.98! The material feels great and they have the best stretch ever! I bought two pair because these thighs are no joke, and chub rub is not my friend! Through experience, I know that if I happen to find a great pair of jeans, I better double up on them because they will eventually be sent to jean Heaven. And at this price, how could I not?!

My Instagram pic the day I found them. Hang out with me @TickaNascha :)

I haven't worn this outfit yet, but hubby and I have a date night planned this weekend, and it will be the outfit of choice. What's easier than a tank, jeans and a pair of heels? Easy breezy.

Yes, I know that my bra is showing. It's on purpose. I was going to throw on a little cami but I figured, "what the hell".  #YOLO Wait, do people still say YOLO? Is that still a thing? Probably not. Oh well.

I took the pics yesterday because I have a feeling that I won't have time to take them once we're getting ready to head out. I never plan enough time, and I always end up not taking them. Great planning by me!! Ayyyyyeeeee!!! :) Lets just hope I don't change my mind about what I'm wearing by the weekend. I've been known to do that :/

Y'all know I can't pass up a good deal. What are some recent deals that you've found and couldn't walk away from? Do tell!!

BFSC #7 & 8...

Two posts in one day?!?! Whoa!!

I had to take pics of this outfit to get it into the weekly recap of the Big Fat Summer Challenge over at Jaisfer Lions Club. Installment #7 is the high-waisted aspect of this outfit. Love this high-waisted pencil skirt!! Entry #8 of the challenge is the bodycon fit. I threw on the statement necklace just to break up the matchy-matchy-ness of everything. And yes, there are belt loops in the skirt. I wasn't feeling wearing a belt, so I didn't. BOOM!

Date night doesn't get any better than this!! ;)

Eight down, two to go!! Now I need to find the courage to post my short shorts and my two piece swimsuit.

Until next time…

Pattern & Color

Happy Monday!!!

I promise, I haven't been lazy. I just wasn't inspired to take pics last week. You know how it is when you're bloated, nothing fits right, and you're just not feeling it? At least I hope I'm not the only one who gets like that :/ Anyhoo, this week is better, and I will have a few outfits to post.

I was good on Sunday and got all of my outfits ready for the week. I love it when I do that. The only downside is the possibility waking up in the morning, and not feeling like wearing what I have laid out. Hopefully that won't happen to me this week. I plan to wear another dress and a skirt. Please keep in mind that I live in Minnesota. The weather can be finicky, so these are pretty lofty goals. =D

Let me say that I LOVE this dress. It's yet another one of my Old Navy clearance finds at the fantastic price of $11.47!! It's so comfy and light, and the pattern is too cute. Let me also say how refreshing it was to wear heels without the platform on the front. Don't get me wrong, I love me some platforms, but this was a nice change. With that said, I have a CUTE pair of brown platforms that I will be sporting tomorrow. Ha!

My pop of color comes from a super cute necklace from Eloqiuu. I won it in a giveaway from Jen over at Literal Gemini. Thanks Jen!! I got compliments on it all day long.

Until next time...
