Friday Fashion And Fun
Hey everyone! How about some Friday Fashion? I'm so enjoying this pretty blouse covered with blue flowers by Lark & Ro. The bow can be left tied or untied and is even removable which is such a nice feature. I removed it later in the day because it got in my way as I bent over taking dishes out of the dishwasher. I can remember when bows on blouses were big back in the 80's. It was a fun trend then just like it is now!
I paired the blouse with the dressier pair of Alfred Dunner pants I ordered off of Poshmark. These are lightweight and very comfortable. Alfred Dunner is definitely a good brand for me. I'm also sporting some comfortable Skechers running/walking shoes. These shoes are called "Skech-Air" and have air cooled memory foam which really adds to how wonderful these shoes feel! Love them and they look pretty good with the dressier pants IMO.
Here's a close-up of the shoes. So far, I haven't gone wrong with any pair of Skechers I have purchased. The cushioning is fabulous.
It was a bit chilly today, so I added a long creme cardigan over my blouse which gave just the right amount of warmth. My errands today were to have a flute lesson on my teacher's porch and then go to the grocery store before returning home. Would you believe I drove all the way to my flute teacher's house and then realized I had forgotten to bring my flute?! What was I thinking? We have had virtual lessons for months now and it was going to be a treat to be on her porch having a lesson but, oh well! I think my memory is going! Anyway, I went through the drive-through at McDonald's and consoled myself with iced tea and chocolate chip cookies before going on to the grocery store. So, at least that was a treat for me!
And finally, I thought you might want to see what I settled on for arranging my little chrysanthemum plants and the pumpkin I bought last Sunday. I decided to do this little arrangement on the metal table on our back porch and moved the yellow mum and the yellow pansies onto the porch "floor." Just a little bit of Fall decor for our back porch!
I'll be back on Monday to share some more with you. I haven't chosen a topic yet for Monday's post so we'll all be surprised! Have a great Friday and weekend and I'll see you soon! Oh...be sure to leave a comment. Love hearing from you.
Until Next Time,
Debbie

That's such a pretty blouse Debbie! It will work with many other colors, and is so feminine! I like the bows at the neck too, don't have any like that (yet), but I'm glad that style came back! Your outdoor pictures always give me a lift! Such a beautiful area! Funny story about your flute - but at the same time, wonderful that you are learning a new instrument! Good for you! We are always supposed to be learning and growing, and you're doing it!! Have a wonderful weekend!
I have always like blouses with ties, but having a tie that is removable is even better. And I agree that Skechers shoes are so comfy. Your festive fall arrangements with your pumpkins and flowers are beautiful! I'm glad I read your post this morning because your flute lesson story will provide a chuckle for me all day! I have done similar things in forgetting something essential. Forgetting once always helps me remember the next time though!
Love your outfit. Alfred Dunner is great for me too, though I don't always like the fabric. I do like what I can see of the fabric in yours. Love Sketchers too. They are definitely comfortable. And the cardigan looks nice and warm.
Your flower arrangements (and pumpkins) are lovely.
Grace & Peace, Iris

Thanks, Karen, Sharon and Iris for your comments. Yes, the forgotten flute was very humorous! Karen, I was thinking that the blouse bow look could be mimicked with using a scarf tied at the neck or hanging loosely on any blouse. Maybe I'll try that on a future post!
