Baby It's Cold Outside!!!!!




It is a cold weekend in FLorida, you definitely have to bundle up. This is soccer tournament weekend for my daughter and we are driving over 45 minutes away to play on a wide open field where the winds are coming across from the ocean, you can believe it when I tell you it is cold. The girls are all wearing thermals under their soccer uniform, quite crazy huh.....My baby girl loves the game, and mom will be right there to support her, even in cold windy weather. I am layered up today, my jeans are from Loft, Ralph Lauren turtleneck, it has this fleec like feel to it, that makes it quite warm to wear. The knit cap is an oldie but goodie from Gap, the lovely poncho/oversize sweater is from Lands' End and it keeps you super warm, and my Hunter boots to keep my feet warm on the wet grass on this damp cold day. We made it through the game and we won 2-1. As always, thanks for reading and have a great day tomorrow, last day to relax for the weekend.

Holiday Spirit




Today was a great day for relaxing which I did none of. I spent the day preparing for my class tomorrow as state testing is fastly approaching. I ran a few errands, and hoped for a less hectic week (is that possible). Over breakfast my daughters and I shared a short conversation on what they know about Dr. King this morning, and amazingly they knew more about him than I expected. As I drove to the cleaners later on, public radio was playing the famous "I Had a Dream" speech, and even though I did not hear the speech in its entirety, the words that I heard gave me wet eyes and chills. Just knowing that some of the dreams that he had for his daughters in that speech which seemed impossible at the time, are now a possibility for my daughters and my students.

This sweater is on repeat, but it is warm and being navy blue makes it a perfect color for the winter. It is a J Crew love, and it works well with everything. The stripped pink and navy shirt underneath is from Lands' End, just enough color to pop from the sweater. The jeans are Loft Skinnies, which as you know is a favorite of mine. I own about three pairs in the same wash and style. The flats are from Tory Burch, once again super comfortable, and my bag is a Kate Spade tote, lots of room to carry around the personals. I hope everyone have a great week. Stay focused and stay blessed.

Blessings,
Dine

Rainy day go away......




It is rainy and wet today, so hunters are a must. This week has been a whirlwind, I did not even realize that it has come to an end. I hope everyone had a great week, and it is already the middle of January  believe or not. It is a big day tomorrow, I have a wedding to attend, so that means I will have to get all dressed up. These jeans are from Banana Republic and the sweater is from Lands' End. My sling is from Rebecca Minkoff. Have a great weekend everyone, and unlike me relax some.
