Barefoot in {the} garden!


I love it. I love being barefoot in the garden! Who else besides me likes the feeling of fresh country dirt between your toes? Shoes are nice... but barefoot... ahhh... you just can't beat that feeling. Or running through fresh green grass in the summer heat.... life is good that way... :)


Ohh... fall is on the way! I'm soooo excited. The definition of fall for me: Beautiful colors, fresh warm apple cider, carmel apples, jackets (oh, how I love jackets)  Pumpkins, candles, leaves, hay rides, donuts, dancing, brown boots, Sukkot... etc. So, yes I LOVE Fall! What is your top fav things about Fall?


Have you ever made apple cider? It's the best (of course everything homemade is the best) But... I'm telling ya there is nothing else like it.


So, in this outfit I just went really easy and comfy. We are doing lots of canning, freezing and cutting the grass...etc. I didn't really do anything fancy...I also did my hair in a pretty simple way. I'm more of a person who likes her hair down and free. How about you? Do you like it down or up off your neck? 


I'll see ya later! Dirt's calling my name... or no I think that might be my mom... wait...uh.. yup it's dirt, gotta run! Bye. :)

Closet Quote of the day!

Summers over...{almost} Fall is right around the corner!


Hey y'all! We are back from IN! It feels soooooo good to be home again... I can't even begin to say how much I love the smell of my own house and dish soap... Yup. we have this certain dish soap that we used the first day we moved into our house, and... I guess it just stuck. Oh how I love the feeling of my own bed! (ever felt like that?) Well, by dad's Birthday went great! We had a get-together with some friends, ice-cream cake, presents, and laughter! It all went better then we planned. :)


Sorry about the long absence of what was it... 5 days? Well, as you know we were in IN and we also have a garden to harvest! We have corn growing out of our ears, green beens to freeze, tomatoes to can and weeds to pick (I'm sure y'all know the word "busy" as well as we do) ;) But I love the feeling of always something to do! (do you ever feel like that?) 


This is actually my sisters shirt and belt. But she let me borrow it for today! It was pretty big and had sleeves but she brought the shirt and sleeves in so it would fit better. A needle and a little thread can work miracles! 


The trees are already turning colors, and you can smell fall in the air! Even though it is extremely hot a humid out! 


I best be on my way y'all! 
How did you spend your weekend?

Allergies VS Humans!



So, tomorrow we are leaving to go visit some friends in IN! I'm pretty excited. If my timing is right were going to leave at around 7:30 am tomorrow and get to their house at...ummm.. 11:00 am. My Dad's Birthday is on Monday, but we decided to just celebrate it on Saturday with a bunch if friends, since we'll be up there and all. ;)


Lats night I was in the sewing room just looking around and I found this dress that absolutely hideous. But with a few cuts here and there and a few stitches...I created it into the skirt I'm wearing now! It's super comfy and stretchy.  And now I just absolutely love it. If you would like to know how to make the skirt go here: http://primrosecactus.blogspot.com/ ;)
  

So we have been packing, cleaning, washing, vacuuming, sweeping, and the occasional blog check here and there :P I'm suffering from a severe case of allergies! Ugh. I'm sure anyone else who has them can relate to this. I have been up for two hours every night sneezing my head off. And walking around the house hugging a tissue box ;) Every time I'm finished from a sneeze attack my nose looks like a read tomato... lets face it y'all the little pills that are supposed to work miracles...ha, they don't. It's almost like you need to wear a gas mask all day...although that wouldn't be stylish... and how would I call this blog Fashionable Inspirations? It would be more like Fashionable Inspirations with a gas mask :P Who else can relate to this?

Ahhhh... I love summer! But I can't believe it's almost over! 


Well, I will see y'all later! Enjoy this beautiful day.

Tree Top Treasures


Have you ever had those days when you just want to try on allllllll your clothes and see what goes and doesn't go? Last night was one of those "days". I found this treasure of a shirt stuffed between my favorite navy blue Hollister shirt and....uh...one of those shirts you wished you never would have bought...yeah the kind that belongs in the wayyyyyy back of you closet...and uh...thats where it stays (but hey, one day it might come in handy...right?)  
So anyways I found this shirt there and totally gasped because I haven't see it in about 2 years ( I know right?) I got it from Kohl's, At the time it was a tad to big, thats probably how I forgot about it. I'm really excited that I found a new treasure! It' not every day I'm surprised with my closet. (well I sometimes am) ;)


Some of my tank tops are thin straps so this looks great with them, and also keeps it quite modest.


Have a fabulous day!
