A Chilly, Cheery Cherry

Hey now!!! We are actually supposed to get some rain today!!! As it is, I am usually very careful when it comes to resources. For some reason, electricity has gone way up in price. Last month, my bill for my little house was $127. So I did small things like turn out lights when I am not using them, only have one TV going at a time, and not use the big chandelier with all the bulbs. This month?? $56. I know that Daylight Saving Time had a little to do with that, but I am still proud. I have likewise been conserving water when possible - shorter showers, not washing down concrete, etc, but I am thrilled to hear about the rain.

So what am I wearing to face the elements?

I topped my dress with my tweed lurex Newport News coat. Underneath, I have the Calvin Klein dress that I got at the after Christmas sales at Saks.

It has the stud detail at the neckline and down the front. The studs mimic a curvy shape.

So how does it look on? Pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. I find CK to be very flattering and well made.

I decided to wear my David Aaron Black and gold shoes, since they seemed to be a good counterpart to the coat.

Jewelry was red and gold, of course. On my left hand, my wedding set and two gold bracelets.

On my right arm, a ruby cocktail ring, a ruby bracelet, and a garnet bracelet.

That's about all I have to tell you today, except that I tried the Nads Eyebrow Wand after seeing it on TV.





I was less than thrilled. But it may have been that the nubbles I was trying to remove were too short, or I didn't leave it on long enough. I will be looking for a YouTube video to see if the problem was me.

Onto the links!!! Two old favorites of mine, Lauren at www.stylelixir.com for Trend Spin, and Amber at www.induffinitely.blogspot.com for Tremendous Tuesday. Then, I got an email to join Cheryl at www.ohtobeamuse.com, so I think I shall. Have a great Tuesday, and I'll let you know tomorrow whether I get to play tennis tonight, or if it gets rained out, and I get to hang with Elli.
