Winter v Spring

It's been a Seasonal Smackdown here in Dallas, with Winter and Spring fighting to be the Ultimate Season Champion. Spring really had Winter on the ropes and it looked like it was almost over, but then Winter pushed off and came out with a major uppercut that knocked Spring to the mat. Spring pulled itself off the mat and they're duking it out again. So, what am I trying to say? It was 70 something on Friday, we had 3 inches of snow on the ground when I woke up Sunday, and then on Monday it was in the 70s again. Ah...Texas weather.

Look what popped up right before the snow --------------------------^. Poor thing never saw what hit him.

What I Wore That Was Layered for Winting*:

Thank goodness! Another black blog!!!
So many super bloggers have told me to go white, as it is more popular! But as a hard-headed older gal who is just trying to have a fun blog, I am keeping it black! I love your style!
I love to try new things, even at the tender age of 45 ! Sometimes it's a hit, sometimes a miss ! OH well, fashion isn't about saving the world- just about fun and self-expression!

Lesa - thanks! I only have luck at Goodwill in the long run. Poppin in every once in a while usually means that I don't find anything good. But by going a lot, the law of averages in on my side. I just pop in on the way home for a few minutes about once a week. Most of the time I leave with nothing.

RETRO RIVA- Yep, it's all about self expression and personal taste. Thanks for letting me know that you like mine!
