Week Seven {Casual Comfort}

Hello beautiful blog readers!

I am going to cut this post a little short because it is storming like crazy and I'm afraid the lights are going to go out!

Today I decided to go for comfort for my "Beautiful Mess" vintage challenge...believe it or not, I am wearing vintage...


What I wore:
70's Vintage purple and white polka dot blouse/JessJamesJake Vintage
Levi's Demi Curve Water-less Jeans c/o Levi's Shape What's To Come contest!!!
Grey wedges/Fancy Biscuit blog sale

Well, the thunder just scared the crap out of me...so I am going to wrap this up!

Have a lovely Sunday!

Week Six {A Day Full of Memories}...

Hello lovelies, how was your weekend? Mine was busy...lots of cleaning, yard work and laundry! Today one of my fashion/blog inspirations got married!!! Congrats Elsie and Jeremy, I am so happy for you two...it was so awesome watching it unfold through the photos Rachel shared on twitter....it was almost as if I was there! Today was also my father's 62 birthday and it was 13 years ago today I lost my best friend Joe in a car accident...he was one of a kind that's for sure!

It's been really cold here in Missouri these last few days, so for today's "Beautiful Mess Challenge" I got my inspiration from another one of my fashion/blog idols...Kaelah Bee and wore a pair of tights with my dress!

What I wore:
Vintage flower mini dress/Pocket Vintage Clothing
Plum Cardigan/Express (circa 2005)
Black tights/Target (on sale $1.99) 
Black heels/Target
Feather necklace/Violet Bella

Notice in the second to the last photo I look like I am kicking something off of my leg...I was in the middle of those sticky weeds and I had them all over my tights...it was really bugging me!

I really love this little dress, it can be dressed up with a pair of heels like I have on...or worn with a cute pair of flats. I am loving this challenge...and it is a challenge, me wearing anything but sweats and t-shirts is challenging!

I really hope you all have enjoyed these posts...because I enjoy sharing them with you! I hope you all have a lovely week!

xoxo~Meg

Week Five {Mom's Day Out}...

First I want to wish all of you Moms and expecting Moms a very Happy Mother's Day...do you have any big plans? It's going to be pretty simple here, a cookout with my mom and sister and then church in the evening..Izzy is going to be dedicated tomorrow evening, so it may be another emotional day for me...but an awesome Mother's Day gift!

Today the hubs and I went to the lawn and garden center and bought our moms their gifts as well as some more bird seed for my front porch "aviary"...or as my sister calls it "The Bird Sanctuary"...what can I say, I love birds!

Today for my "Beautiful Mess" vintage challenge I went for a simple out and about look...

What I wore:
Vintage plaid blouse/I'm So Eccentric Vintage
White tank/Target
Red Skinny Belt/Kohl's
Cropped Jeans/American Eagle
Black Wedges/DSW

I felt very comfortable in this outfit, but I'll admit before we left for the garden center...I changed my shoes!

Well I am off to finish up some laundry...I hope that you all have a lovely afternoon/evening!

xoxo~Meg
