Kickin' It!

Xhilaration® Susie Flat High-Top Sneaker

Saw these in Target and had to have them!  I purchased them at one location for $24.99 then saw them the next day for $17.88 at another location and yes, I did return them and repurchased them for the lower price!

You can purchase them on-line on Target's webpage here.  Although it says that the shoe is not in stores, I did purchase mine there and they are also available in tan.

What I Wore - Happy in Mulberry!

I mentioned in my last post that I would be experimenting with colors this winter.  So, I took the plunge and decided to take on wearing these Hue "Mulberry" tights.  Normally, I would wear black tights with my black sweater dress, but I must say, I loved this look.  I feel happy, energized and youthful wearing this color!

• Black Wool Coat - Barneys New York
• Black Sweater Dress - Connected
• Bootie - Guess Gwalade

Also, I've been doing Jilian Michael's 30 day shred.  I completed day 5 of level two (day 15) and going strong.  The images above were taken on 1/6/2013 (7 days in).  I can't wait to share with you my progress images on day 30!

Now that I've taken the step to include bold colors in my looks, I'm even more eager to try other colors, especially since the "shedding" has begun!

BTW, here is a link to the Guess bootie (brown).  You can also find them sold on Ebay.

Ahh the Aroma!

Purchased my new candle today while shopping at Ross.  Clover and Sons "After Shave".  I took one sniff and I fell in love!  The scent is warm and sensual.  If you love the scent of sandalwood, then you'll love this candle as well!

What I wore today...

• Dress: Thrifted
• Boots: Sam Edelman "Sutton" over the knee boots
• Necklace:  Thrifted
• Sweater: Thrifted

Actually I wore this ensemble to church this past Sunday. The weather here has gotten colder and thus I needed to wear a bit more in order to keep warm.  I have made numerous purchases over the past few months and you will notice (in upcoming posts) that I will be venturing out into wearing more colors this fall as I continue to workout and re-shape my body.
