    1. Yeah...I'll probably just use this. I could do better, but since I just wore it I'll probably go ahead and use it.
      Can't wait to see what you come up with. :)

    1. Hi, Donna. I have a few pairs of this length pant and I'm not sure it's the most flattering of lengths on me, but I'll be wearing them anyway. Secret: My legs looked SO white I added just a tiny bit of fake photoshop tan. haha I guess I'm going to have to start applying that Dove self tanning lotion again and I'm not looking forward to it. But I sure am glad to be able to be wearing the sandals. Yay!

  3. What a great outfit Lisa, it looks so comfortable ! Love that top and the 3/4 pants. I wear a lot of 3/4 pants since long pants are too warm and short pants are inappropriate for the office obviously. I hope that you find some nice things thrifting ! --- Lisa

    1. Hi, Lisa. I'm wanting more pants that go about to the ankle, but so far I've just gotten a pair of black ones with some beading at the ankle. I haven't worn them yet though.

  4. I just love red, white and blue. It's so nostalgic and you did a nice job putting it all together.
    I wish I could have done some thrifting this weekend. Instead I had a ton of weekend chores not near as exciting. Would be fun for you to show me your favorite thrifty stores sometime!

    1. Hi, Joni. Well, it's nothing unique like the little WS shops. Just Value Village and Goodwill. :)
      I'll be working on household and yard chores tomorrow(Monday).

  6. I'm just catching up on your stylings - all fabulous. When you say you're doing "a little thrifting" I find it hard to believe, more like doing some mega-ultra Tasmanian Devil thrifting - you are the queen of finding excellent pieces at jaw-dropping prices. I wonder what you found on this trip...?

      I could have improved upon it, but was going for simplicity for the activity to be engaged in. :)

  12. ahoy Lisa. Your outfit is darling. Capris are one of my favorite clothing items; not quite shorts, not quite pants.

    1. Hi! Yes...I do not wear shorts. I'm really wanting more of the ankle length pants. A little longer than capri's, but shorter than regular pants. I have several pair of capri's though, so I'll be wearing them too.
