Dark Red Floral Print Dress

I bought this dress in a size small. The sleeves are a little too long for me, perhaps because I am 5'2". The shoulders ended up being a little too tight for me, too, but I chose small because I didn't want it ti be slipping down. The fabric okay, though I feel it look a little like something something from the 1970's in person. Overall, I think it is a cute dress for the price, and if you can get the correct fit. Because of the darker color, I could see wearing this in the early fall, as well as summer and spring.

Blue and White Chevron Striped Dress

For a few days here in Virginia, it was feeling like spring!  Now it's back to cooler weather, but I am still thinking of spring fashion.  Chevron print dresses are one thing on my list this year.  Chevron is an interesting print, but one I don't own much of.  I plan to change that!  

Did you know that the chevron pattern has been around since ancient times?  We can see why, with so many ways to wear the print.  Like, for instance, this nautical maxi I am wearing below.

Cracker Barrel Scarf

I added this pretty, peachy scarf to my spring wardrobe.   I love how it compliments the blue dress so well.  And you know I just love tassels and pom poms!  The fabric is light, and perfect for spring and cooler summer days or nights.

 Who else loves to shop at Cracker Barrel?  There's always something new and different when I go.

Build-A-Head

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!  I have been enjoying the spring-like weather here in Virginia, but things are taking a cooler turn again starting tomorrow.

Today I am sharing something a little different from my usual OOTD's...it's Build-A-Head, a face cut-out company!

The idea is that you can use your own photos to make fun, over-sized heads for parties, events, etc.  I love the idea, and I think it would be lots of fun for birthday parties, especially.  I can just "picture"...a whole room of me, lol! 

My order is one of the smaller sizes, you can also Build-A-Head in sizes up to 3 feet!    There are also cutout keychains, ornaments, life-size stand ups, etc!  Another life size you?  How cool would that be!

Right now, use code bah-4794 to receive one free big head!  This code is good for two weeks, so be sure to order right away!

Black Satin Embroidered Blouse

I love the embroidery on this blouse that I bought in the L.A. fashion district.  It's such a unique piece.  I have linked to a similar outfit, below.

The skirt is a piece I have had for years.  I think it was from Goodwill when I got it, so it's had a whole new life with me!

MillyBridal Prom and Formal Gown Ideas

For today's post, I am sharing some of my favorites gowns from MillyBridal.  They have so many gorgeous gowns, it was hard to narrow my choices down!

The great things about all the gowns I have chosen for this post is that they are all available in sizes 6 to 30W, and comes in over a dozen color options.

All dress are made-to-order, so start shopping now if you are looking for the perfect prom dress, etc.

This first choice is such a lovely color, and the two-piece set makes it interesting.  It looks so romantic!

The thing I love most about this neck choice is the plunging neckline.  It's perfect for those that really want to go for the glamour!  I think this gown is a show-stopper!  I can just picture is with some elbow length white or black gloves, and a gorgeous little evening bag.  A beautiful wrap would really complete the old Hollywood star look.

I also love the neckline, and the appliques on this next dress.  The color shown is also dreamy, and romantic.  I love the pink, but MillyBridal also has Blue Bridesmaid Dresses.  There is something for everyone!

I love the retro flair of this final dress.  The cherries are so cute, and I love the contrast lining that shows, and the high-low hem.  Stop by the website and see all the fantastic choices, including Junior Bridesmaid Dresses.  Remember, all these gowns come in lots of other colors, too!  You are bound to find something you love!

Silver Hat

Did anyone else celebrate National Margarita Day?

It was so warm and pretty here in Virginia today, I got a few things done outside, and also have time to play badminton with my parents.  It was a fun day, and it looks like the weather is going to be nice all week.

Blue Velour Pleated Dress

I bought this dress in blue, and the color is so vibrant and gorgeous! I got mine in a size small, as well. The small fit me perfectly. If your arms are much bigger than mine, though, I think the sleeves may end up being a little too tight.

This dress is $18.99 and comes in three other colors.

Pink Sweater and Beanie

I bought this sweater and beanie at different times, but they go together so well!

I took this when it was colder here in Virginia...it's going to be 70 degrees today, so I could be wearing a sundress right now!

Plaid Fringe Dress

Happy weekend!
Last night, my parents, husband and I attend the annual State of the Film Industry meeting in Richmond, Virginia.   It's always great to catch up with old friends, and learn what's new in the industry. 

 Today was spent at home, catching up on organizing and cleaning.  How was your Friday?

Long Red Faux Fur Coat

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone is having a lovely Valentine's Day!  Vaughan and I are spending the day at home, eating chocolate, of course.

I bought this beautiful, red faux fur coat over a year ago, and just the other day was the first time I really wore it.  I decided to go for the red-to-toe look that has been trending this season.

I bought my coast for around $70 on Ebay, but I am sharing other options at the end of this post that are in several different price ranges.  My shades are also from Ebay.  The heels, skirt and top were from Goodwill.
