Straight From the Heart

That is how it worked yesterday. I donated another unit of my precious blood to the Blood Bank. It's an easy way to help someone in need. And I got a movie ticket and another T shirt.



Here's the logo on the back - The Key to Life.

 
 
Later on, Doc and I were walking the dogs. While Kenni and Vinni were pulling at my arms to try and scramble all over the universe, I sprung a leak. I plugged it up pretty well with a Kleenex. Doc felt sorry for me, and so he gave me another little gift:

 
 
 
 
I realize that this looks like a gold coin and you guys are thinking that I am one spoiled girl. Now for the reveal:


It's really a giant chocolate coin !!! But, yes, I AM a tiny bit spoiled.

Onto bigger and better things - what am I wearing?




You get two views today because I couldn't decide which one I liked better. This is a Celine skirt, with a polyester ruffly tank and my ivory waterfall cardi that I love and wear a lot. The skirt was a good excuse to bust out my fuchsia Urban Originals purse from Neiman Marcus.



This is a big beauty!!! It has a separate zippered inner bag that is big enough to hold my laptop. I tied this together with a vintage belt.



The belt and the purse both have gold tone elements, so that made the choice of jewelry easier. I went with a Joan Rivers convertible pin/pendant.



On my left hand, a stretchy crystal bracelet from Saks, and a garnet/diamond ring.


 
 
 
On the right hand,  a plastic stretch bracelet from Macy's, and a crystal/enamel ring from Saks.

 
 
I elected to go with neutral shoes, my Carlos Santana suede gladiators.



So that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!!! Onto the links. It's Thursday, so that means Throwback Thursday with Alice at www.happinessatmidlife.com.  Then, another link I have been doing for a couple of weeks - Christina at www.poshpair.com is hosting Life and Style Link Up. Today's theme is pastels, but I played along anyway, because she is sporting an adorable fuchsia clutch bag. From this link up, I found Jenna at www.sincerelyjennamarie.com, who is hosting Thursday Favorites. I have a rather jam packed day, so I will be checking these ladies out later. See you all soon!!!
