Say It Ain’t So

I have a hard time saying the month September without some bitterness.  But it is here. And we said goodbye to summer with a little trip to the lake.

Here’s what I wore winding summer down-

This was my fabulous fringe outfit.  I wore this scarf only for the picture because it was gameday for my little footballer and I found a wonderful game day scarf at a local shop.

I decided to try something fun with my hair for gameday.  I’m enjoying the braid trends. Here’s the result-

Put A Ring On It

I couldn’t think of a ring that I liked more than the ones that mean something special to me. So while I could have photographed a pretty cocktail ring or a bunch of fancy rings, I took some pictures of my wedding rings and my five year anniversary ring.

Here’s a little game for you?  Can you spot the real diamonds?

Spot the Real

Spot the Real 2

I’m sure you guessed that my engagement ring was diamond and you were right.  That whole set is.  But my other five year anniversary ring is actually a white sapphire.  And was not very expensive.  Does that make it less special?  No.  (But I can tell you which one would cause panic if I misplaced it!)

And then I threw in a little LOVE midi ring for fun.  I can’t even claim these are CZ.

Here is what I wore-

I thought my top with the little grommets connected with the ring theme.  🙂

Sandals- Mix It

Earrings- (small silver hoops=ring theme) Uppercase Living- so weird

Leather Love

Did you not get the memo that yesterday was the cobalt blue shirt and black pants uniform? It’s okay, I ran into several people, including the staff at the YMCA with the same thought.  It must have fit the weather- rainy and dreary.

Leather Love

I am not a huge fan of my accessories here.  They seem a little disjointed.  But whatevs. I have owned these shoes for at least ten years.  They are still holding up nicely.  And current.  Classics. And they are leather so they fit the theme.  My headband also is faux leather.  Here’s a close up.
