Who Was It?

Hey Dolls and Dukes , I hope I find everyone happy blissfully full after the holidays. Mine was great caught up on rest and it doesn't get much better than that. Well today is a share. I just received this package of lovely earrings and a brooch that I absolutely love. The problem is they didn't tell me who they are. So if you were the ones to send me these please let me know I want to be able to give you credit.

Now I have not worn thes yet but I just had to share. I am a big fan of acrylic earrings and brooches. They add so much to an outfit which is the point of accessories. You can make a 10 year old outfit look brand new; or separate a new one from the others. And the potential you have to express your individuality is the most fun of all.

So this week I and whoever will be joining me will commit to restyle every look.  So here we go :

OUTFIT OF THE DAY: JEANS FOR THE SKIRT GIRL

If you're like me there is nothing like that amazing figure hugging wiggle skirt. Thrown in with a good well made belt in, a sleek set of garters. And its a quick road to an addiction. I'm sorry but with the down turn jeans have taken... they just can't compete with my skirts and dresses. Let's face it I can't remember the last time I saw a pair of jeans that went up at a length. Its mind boggling low-rise jeans and pants have lasted so long. Espically since they look good on NO ONE! But I've had to been the last Doll in the world to discover jeggings. Lol clearly us vintage Dolls can often times be out of touch with the modern world. But still this one was a big Duh moment for me.

In addition to low rise jeans creating a muffin top (whether you have one or not), with me being a pronounced hourglass figure I tend Togo for high waist everything and it is very hard to find. Also from pain I experience with my Lupus Jeans are just too heavy, and the numbero uno rule in fashion is that the clothing should not wear you!. But these were a true high-waist , a nice breathable cotton and baby soft. I loved them so much I went back on line and got some more colors.
