PINK LEGS

I SWEAR THESE TIGHTS AREN'T AS BRIGHT AS THEY LOOK ;)  ~  WELL, ALMOST. I THINK IT'S TIME TO FIND A NEW SPOT TO TAKE PHOTOS. AS THE SUN MOVES, THE LIGHTING INEVITABLY CHANGES, AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, THE DREADED INDOOR PHOTOS ;)
I HAVE AN EVEN TOUGHER TIME GETTING THE COLORS SPOT ON WHEN INDOORS.
OH, WELL, MAYBE IT'S TIME TO LOOSEN MY GRIP AND JUST LET THE IMAGES FLOW WHERE THEY WILL !

THIS OUTFIT IS MY SALUTE TO THE  'HEAT WAVE'  IN CINCY RIGHT NOW ~ AND TO BRIGHT AND SHINY IDEAS WHICH SEEM TO BE POPPING UP ALL OVER THE PLACE, LATELY. IT'S ALMOST OVERWHELMING .........  BUT IN A GOOD WAY :)

HAVE YOU GUYS NOTICED I AM FINALLY GAINING SOME WEIGHT ? CHECK OUT MY CHEEKS (ON MY FACE......)
FULLER AND PUFFIER.
THANKS BAKED BEANS AND POTATO CHIPS, MY NEW DINNER OF CHOICE.

A BODY AT REST TENDS TO STAY AT REST.......

WHILE A BODY IN MOTION TENDS TO STAY IN MOTION !

HI EVERYBODY !
BOY HAVE I BEEN BUSY THIS PAST WEEK-END :)  ~  NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT ?
BLOGGER, OH BLOGGER, WHY DOES THOU HATE ME SO ?  WARNING : BACK-UP YOUR ORIGINAL STRETCHED BLOG BEFORE TRYING OUT A NEW TEMPLATE.......

BUT, ON TO HAPPIER THOUGHTS ;)
I HAVE BEEN DIY NUTS, RE-DECORATING NUTS AND GETTING READY TO LAUNCH AN ETSY SHOP ! YEE-HAW !!!  ~  THOUGH MOST OF MY PROJECTS ARE ONLY 1/2 FINISHED, THE BIGGEST PROJECT IS TO GET MY "PROJECT ROOM" NEAT AND ORGANIZED SO I CAN FIND THE STUFF I NEED.
WHICH MEANS ACTING LIKE A "GROWN-UP" ~ MAKING LISTS AND FOLLOW-THROUGH,
 ( WHICH IS MY CHALLENGE ;)
THIS MEANS LESS TIME ON THE COMPUTER (THIS WEEK) AND MORE TIME DOING MANUAL LABOR. YUCK.....   A DOMESTIC GODDESS I AM NOT .....

THIS WAS MY ROCK COLLECTING OUTFIT  ( HINT, HINT :)  ~ A VINTAGE SKIRT WITH A RECENTLY  THRIFTED KITSCHY WOOL SWEATER ( LIMITED ) AND MY GO-TO CLONKIN' AROUND BOOTS , PLUS THICK COTTON TIGHTS. BRRR.......  ~ CINCY WEATHER REPORT: FREEZING COLD!  ~ BUT DOWN ON THE UPSIDE: A WARM FRONT IS HEADING OUR WAY. THE WEATHER DUDES ARE CALLING IT 'INDIAN SUMMER', THOUGH I THINK THAT IS A POLITICALLY INCORRECT TERM. LEAVE IT TO CINCY ;)

A HUGE THANKS TO THE CITIZEN ROSEBUD FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND MOTIVATION OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS. IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY, CHECK OUT HER BLOG ~ IT IS AWESOME, AND SHE KNOWS STUFF ;)
( I designed her new header ! )   Thanks, Bella Q !

Frothy and Green

I suppose you'd call this "Yard Style" rather than Street Style, but hey, I am rockin' the army greens :) Last week I got a sunburn during the yard-sale from hell. People in the country hit your house around 6 AM or so, So I was in my PJ's selling stuff and seeing red due to the heat and sun by 10 AM (the heat index there was over 100 degrees) and boom!, into the 50's this week. I swear I have a tan ;) ~ Ah, the good old mid-west. My hubby is into making cappucino (YUM!) and I am enjoying being catered to. I think he missed me ;)

He makes the best froth in town ;)

I am really digging the layered street styles I'm seeing around the net lately. I like the Less-Is-More with a great shoe look, and the knit sock hats paired with dresses. Kinda grungy ~ and I do like my grunge :) I will still need my vintage, big-ass earrings and hats, though. I still have values :)

Hope everyone's having a great week , Cheers !
