Catching up....Hi there!

Here's the outfit that went with the "birthday earrings" in the previous post.
Im still having fun with outfits, and still loving turquise, so thought I would give you peek.
Here I am on Valentines day at work. Sorry so washed out , took the pic in the front window at work, because, heck I matched the sofa!
This skirt was long and very full, so I chopped it off, leaving the lining longer and adding lace at the trim.
I 've had this lace bling for quite a while, and thought it helped jazz up up this plain jane.
But a skirt with pockets!!! Such a find!

And last, yep, my colored world. Dont you love how my outfit matches my new armoire?
I am totally addicted to more turquise in my wardrobe and surrounding me.

If I only had a brain


Start singing from Wizard of Oz....

I felt like the scarecrow in this skirt, and I loved it.
I cut this skirt off, fringed the edge and added applique of upholstery fabric. And then, (while watching movies on new Years Day) I embroidered simple lines over the applique's.


I realized I could do a series of skirts...
If I only had a heart,
and courage!!
And, I guess I shouldnt forget Dorothy!
