Well, I'm back to having Red bangs again.  I feel like I've gone to my "natural" hair color. :o) The night I put in the Red I dreamed I colored my bangs Purple.  So I guess that's next!

On Labor Day Grandpa invited the daughters and granddaughters to come up and go through Grandma's clothes.  It has been three years since her passing.  It was still hard, but we were all happy to get to take a little bit of her home.  My Grandmother is my style icon forever and always!  She did some modeling when she was young and always dressed and walked like she had just stepped off of a photo shoot.  I am picturing her right now with a golden yellow silk scarf wrapped around her dark curled hair and draping off her shoulders, it was Easter Sunday.  That is my Grandma Janell.  Her closet was always my favorite room in her house.  I would sit on the floor and look at all the designer clothes and just dream.  When I arrived on Labor Day, I hurried up to her closet to sit and dream one last time before anyone else came upstairs.

End of Summer

I totally forgot to post this outfit several Sundays back!  It's that time of year when I want to wear Fall colors and layers, but they feel all wrong when I step outside in the heat.  So, Orange and Brown and a light skirt help get me through this last bit while Summer hangs on.

It's that time again...the end of Summer.  That's when I feel like this dress is most appropriate.  It is for sure a Summer dress, but is full of the Fall colors I'm always craving by now.  Perfect for hanging out on my in progress patio with a cold drink.  Who am I kidding?  It's still too hot here to be out on any patio in the middle of the day!  Right now I just stand at my back door and look out longing for cooler temps so I can relax out there with a book or magazine.  I have plans for a fire pit that I know will be wonderful when Fall arrives!
