It's kind of hard to believe that earlier this week we had a large amount of snow fall here in the city.
This weekend is supposed to be very nice. Warm weather - yes!

Hopefully, Spring weather will stay around and we have seen the last of the snow - until next Winter.
The mornings and evenings in the spring can get kind of chilly and rainy. You know- April Showers........Bring May flowers.

I decided to do this post on Spring jackets. What's your favorite Spring jacket?
I have a Banana Republic trench coat that I adore. I also have this great orange tweedy jacket that I think has seen its last days. It had a good long 10 year run, but I think it's time to lay it to rest.

Speaking of Spring....In Indiana that means tornadoes and severe storms. Please have a plan for your family. Do you know where you will go should a storm strike? Be sure everyone in the family knows the plan before any storms strike. Better to be prepared. That includes your little furry friends.
Make sure they are safe.....

Stylin' Saturday - Orange Crush




I have been a big fan of orange for just about my entire adult life. I have a friend who wore it and wore it well all the time.




I admit, in the past few years I have been wearing mostly black. Partly because I was feeling frumpy and black is supposed to make you appear to look thinner.

With my weight loss, I find myself wearing bright colors. Bright yellows, pinks and of course ORANGES!  When I eat healthier, I just feel good and the bright colors reflect that feeling.

Nordstrom posted this picture on their Facebook and Twitter pages and I just fell in love all over again with orange.





I'm planning to do a shopping spree for new Spring/Summer wear and some basics in a few weeks. Guess what is at the top of my list? You guessed it - orange items.





I also just realized that I am using orange accents in our family room. We have two built in bookcases on both sides of our fire place. My husband is finishing up working on them. Of course, I started buying the accessories for the shelves. I found some super cute accent items from TJ Maxx.






Loving this guys orange style..........
