Charlotte Russe Earrings


Floral peplum
Top : Fashion Express | Skirt : Nada | Shoes : Rage | Watch : Lanco | Ring : Mr. Price

Floral peplum with a grey skirt


Grey ombre shoes
 
Todays challenge is Featured earrings ... I do think these from Charlotte Russe would be 'featured' enough - don't ya?  Taryn gave them to me when she was here, along with another pair, bangles and more.  She spoilt me rotten.
 
Todays outfit is a remix ... my grey Nada uniform skirt and my 'happy' peplum top with my grey ombre courts. 

A quick and simple Monday outfit.

I'm linking up at the every wonderful Patti over at Not Dead Yet Style for Visible Monday.

Red capris and a floral peplum


Capris and a floral peplum
Peplum : Fashion Express
Capris : Woolworths
Shoes : ShoeCity
Earrings : Foschini
Bracelets : Charlotte Russe & Various others

Schatz was still half asleep and shaky when he tooks my pics this morning, so apologies for the bluriness of the pic.  I am feeling in the holiday/weekend spirit so decided to wear my capris.  I find this top to be happy - the colour and the print just looks happy and I enjoy feeling happy.

Last night was our monthly Sistas Dinner.  With it being December, we gave out Christmas gifts.  I got such gorgeous gifts.  I'm hoping to get photos from my sisters soon to share.

Norma gave us each a little wooden crate filled with yummy goodies like biscuits and sweeties as well as a three piece cake set.  Its quite different and definitely gorgeous.
Noleen gave us each a wall hanging with a poem on it and a gorgeous clock.
Lynn gave us a note book (mine has an image of the Eiffel Tower on it), scarf, sweeties and hand cream.

I gave Noleen and Lynn each a pendant and for Norma I got a bracelet and I added in a little Christmas fruitcake and a minature candycane.  I also brought Christmas Crackers for us to share.  I always enjoy watching the other patrons faces ... as curious as they are about what we're getting up to as curious as I am about them :-).

While I was out to dinner I got a message from home saying that our young cat was missing.  Schatz and the kids searched the closets and he went around the garden with a torch, but she was nowhere to be found.  Luckily this morning the neighbours domestic told our Felicia that they had taken her to the SPCA - she's home safe and sound but she's such a little adventurer we're going to have to keep a close eye on her.  She's also due to be 'fixed', so we'd best get that done soonest ... however cute a little litter of kittens would be, I so don't want to fall in love with even more animals.

I guess as I need now is a Santa bag and I could look like a southern hemisphere Santa helper :0).

Happy day to you

Floral peplum with white 3/4 jeans ... on a Monday



Woolworths white denim capris


Floral peplum, with white capris and coral floral heeled wedges

Top : Fashion Express
Pants : Woolworths (R225.00)
Shoes : Meltz (ModaScapa) (R169.00 - bargain)
Bangles : Various
Earrings : Truworths

I feel fabulous in this outfit.  I have hummed and haaaed about buying white pants and finally decided to go for it.  Oh my, I'm so going back to Woolies for a few more pairs of these in other shades, they are super comfy and if you have hips like me, they fit so well over the area, not pulling or biting ... divine.  So all you curvy gals, get to woolies now and grab a pair.  You'll get your moneys worth of wear out of them over the summer and with Christmas, New Year, pool parties and braais on the way, they'll work for all the outings including dressing them up for work.

The shoes stole my heart on Saturday when I passed by Meltz.  We'd gone to buy Liam a desk and then stopped off for lunch, which took us past Meltz, so I had to go and have a look.  They had these shoes in Teal and Taupe as well but Schatz said I should go for these coral ones.  They're just such 'happy' shoes.  I am smitten.  My domestic worker squealed when she saw them ... I think it we wore the same size shoe she'd simply redistribute half my shoes to her closet.

I did some birthday present shopping yesterday and also some Christmas decorations shopping.  I need to add a few more items to my table centre piece and put a nail in the door to hang the wreath.  I am going to start getting the decorations out of storage and sorting through them.  I dont' think I 'need' to buy any more decorations, but the 'want' may take over.

So let me get started with the other needs of the day - hope your Monday is fabulous!

I'm joining up at Pattis Visible Monday over at Not Dead Yet Style as I really feel any but invisible in this outfit today.
