Too Much Too Doo !!!!

I was way to busy to do anything yesterday. The day was one of those that just flies by and is over before you realize it . So I will recap the weekend, Monday, and today. First, Preston made me a giant birthday card and dropped it by on Friday night.

This is the outside.

On the inside, he made two cutouts of the spotted dogs that I used to have .

Then he did little portraits of us - Note how he recreated his mohawk, and how tiny Elli is. I'm not really sure why he is bigger than me.

Now, let's move onto today's outfit. The color on my Magical Calendar is silver.

So I wore my pointelle knit sweater dress from Neiman Marcus.

On top, I wore my grey knit cardi from Macy's in Philadelphia. I doubled up on necklaces. The longer one is vintage Avon, from my mom, and the shorter one is costume silver tone.

On my right arm, two Austrian crystal stretch bracelets, and the marcasite ring that Luke, Ashley and Preston got for me one Christmas.

On my left arm, my seraphinite bracelet from the Southwest Indian Foundation, and my mother of pearl spaceship ring.

My grey boots form JC Penney completed the look perfectly.

For lunch, I had a gut bomb tamale. It tasted good, but it sat in my belly.

Over the weekend, we went down to see my mom, and of course, we went back to Pinoy. Here's what we got:

 A BBQ chicken skewer with a boat load of sticky rice.

Ribs adobo, pancit, and marinated beef (similar to carne asada)

And a crab omelet with another boat load of rice.

Here's a picture of the interior. Next time, I'll get a better one. There were a lot of people lined up at the steam table, so I didn't want to invade their privacy.

Yesterday's magical color was lavender. Here's what I came up with.

These ponte knit pants are from Express, and the space dyed cardi is Jones New York. Underneath, I wore a beaded sweater from Mixit.

I wore my purple Austrian crystal necklace. On my left arm,

A bracelet of quartz, agate and amethyst, and a tanzanite ring. On my right arm,

The same two Austrian crystal stretch bracelets I am wearing today, and a larger tanzanite ring.

I took the opportunity to wear a largely ignored pair of purple tweed boots. They are very hard to zip up.

Also over the weekend, I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a new vase. We needed a large one.

Don't my birthday flowers look pretty in it? Here's a closeup of the top, made of free form circular gold things.

So let's do a lot of linking!!! First, Deb from www.elegantlyfashionable.com has Classy Monday, and then Rachelle from www.pinksole.com has How I Fall. Next, Cherie from www.stylenudge.com has her regular linkup, but it's more than shoes this week. Then, Melissa at www.mahogany-closet.com has Mahogany Closet Monday. And finally, Ana Luiza at www.northwestblonde.com has Start The Week Stylish.


Have a great day, and sorry for the missed day. I'll be good.
