Happy Wednesday!

Last week, I decided at the spur of the moment, that I needed a vacation.  So I got online and found a great destination, at a great price and I’ll be off for some much needed FUN!  Oh and some rest too.

In light of my last minute decision to be out of town, coupled with all the things I need to get done, I will not be covering any “Topics” this week.  This will be a “Fashion Only” week as far as my blog posts go.  I hope you enjoy.

While I’m away, I may shoot a video on tips for packing for the beach, or I could do a video on quick and easy outfits for when you travel…..Let me know if you would like that and which one you prefer.

Now, on to the Fashion….

This outfit was inspired by the top I’m wearing.  I fell in love with it at first sight.  It is sleeveless, semi transparent and has little birdies on it.  Not my usual style, but its fun to try something different.

Many of you already know that I have a love affair with Georgetown DC.  There is always so much to do and the energy is great.  On this particular day, we started out in Georgetown enjoying the day, then ended up in one of my favorite scenic spots in Fairfax.

I love pairing pieces that are fun (like this top with the birdies on it), with pieces that are somewhat elegant and then throw in something a little rugged like this vest.  Its like all the worlds converging at once.  My daughter braided my hair.  She was like “mom you need to get with the times”

I love wearing high heels.  In fact, most of my shoes are high heels.  But that’s just not practical when you are doing a lot of walking around.  These shoes were perfect because the heel was low enough that they were comfortable, yet the gold details of this shoe were flashy and added enough interest for this outfit.

Well I hope you enjoyed today’s post.  Big hugs and thanks for reading!
