while the weather has been absolutely delightful this week – no humidity – i’m taking advantage wardrobe-wise. and a cardigan is a welcome sight any time of year (think chilly movie theaters and office buildings) but during the summer months, it makes a rarer appearance. as do my beloved blue jeans. so today i’m taking the opportunity to ease into thursday with a casual chic ootd that makes my heart sing – graphic tee, cashmere cardigan, and blue jeans. nothing too exciting, but this pink flamingo tee has cute written all over it due to sequined feathers. and i happen to like the color combo pink and black so this ootd was a no-brainer. i amped up the volume with a pink necklace and gold cuff bracelet. then toned it down with classic pointy-toed flats and bamboo handle handbag. jeez, can you believe we zipped through the first week of may in record time? i don’t know about you, but this girl is ready for the weekend.

We look very well, and comfy and elegant. Your hair is longer than usual, isn’t it? Love it though.
just can’t resist a cute tee, maria! and, yes, the ‘do’ is different and a tad longer. i’m ready for the heat and humidity that’s headed my way this summer.

Morning Girfriend! I used to rock this one until we moved to gatorville. I do need to put some effort in fun tees. Age appropriate of course (not) or they wouldn’t be fun! YESSSSS I too am ready for the weekend!-Laurel
i bet you were totally ready for the weekend! i hope you were able to catch your breath. you’ve been on the move, girlfriend!

Love this! The tee is fab…who doesn’t like sequined feathers? The necklace is perfect with it. I clicked through and found the watermelon necklace…too cute. xoxo
i thought that watermelon necklace was sooooo cute for the summer months!

It’s been the same here–beautiful temps and nice light breezes, with no humidity. I’m cherishing it as I know what lies ahead. Cute look–I have also been wearing jackets and sweaters lately since I figured soon, I won’t be able to; it will be too toasty. You’re in the pink!
hasn’t this weather been downright delicious, sue?! i am relishing each and every day. it’s only a matter of time before the humidity arrives. and that dog gone heat. in the meantime, you are right, i am in the pink?
xoxo
It’s all in the details ! Like the half roll on the jeans just lovely Beth…
i love it when the details are noticed! good eye, lorena, good eye.

soooo many people asked me if I am from Florida when I wore my flamingo t shirt in Hawaii last week.
They seemed surprised when i said Texas!
lol! i guess those floridians have the corner market on flamingos! but isn’t this the cutest darn tee?
xoxo
Yes, so cute. I would wear that!!
I think I already told you how much I love that tshirt. In fact, this whole outfit gives you a vibe that I love. Makes me feel like we could hang and be friends.

Searching the net high & low for this tshirt, am so in love with it, I guess that’s one drawback living in Australia ????
