Ageless Style: Booties

This month's theme "Booties" was chosen by Bo from Bo's Bodacious Blog.  I was thrilled because I fell in love with booties last fall and now own a god 4 or 5 pairs.  They have become one of my favorite fall staples that get added to my wardrobe quite early on in the season.


I asked my son to snap a few photos of me while we were out hiking again and I think he did a great job!

It really was not my best idea to wear these shoes hiking though as they made it difficult to hike properly.  But I just love the buckle detail and the little heel.  

I paired my booties with my favorite jeans, a turtleneck sweater, and some simple jewelry.










I hope you'll visit everyone else to see how they styled their booties too!

    These are cute boots even if they weren't practical for your hike, they look so nice with your outfit! I love ankle boots and jeans in cooler weather, such a staple! :)

    Hope that your week is going well :) It was another rainy spring day here!

    Love the gray color of the booties! And you can never go wrong with a gray sweater. I have too many in gray sweaters but since I'm doing the minimalist closet (project 333) challenge I keep most packed away (can't bring myself to get rid of them!!)

    Grey is one of my favorite color and I have similar pair of booties. Looks like a cozy outfit and I love the addition of that necklace.

    You look great! I like the little chunky heel on those. Booties like these have become my favorite too. Comfy, easy to walk in, and stylish.

      I need a nice chunky heel; otherwise I just can't walk in them.

    Your son is so good at taking your pictures! My poor hubby is in charge of all my pictures. LOL. I love the long necklace with that turtleneck. You look so great in the neutral tones of gray!

      He did great; though he did tell me he feels like he's shaking the whole time. I don't think my husband has ever taken my photo... maybe once on our honeymoon? He's not really a picture guy.

    Those are such fabulous boots Joanne, and would go with everything. In fact, I have been keeping my eye out for a darker grey bootie like those.

    You look smashing. Love the gun metal gray of your booties. And that gray tunic sweater, it is such a flattering fit; I like the little bit of ruffle at the hem. It isn't an official ruffle but just hangs very femininely. Pretty necklace, too. Give the whole look a little dressy detail.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Making Gift Card and Money Holders Using Scrapbooking and Cardmaking Supples

Image
I don't tend to keep a lot of crafting supplies on hand so when I saw this month's de-stash challenge I wasn't sure what I was going to make.  I finally realized that with so many of my Christmas gifts being cash and gift cards this year that I needed to make up some fun paper crafting/ creative ways to gift them.   I still want my nieces and nephews to have something to open so I pulled out my papers and stamps and made up some cute little money/gift card holders. They were much easier to make than I thought.  The first one I worked on was to hold some oversized Nintendo gift cards.  I made a standard sized card and folded down one corner of the card front.  Then I ran my double sided tape along the bottom an 1/2 way up the side creating a cute little pocket.  Finally I added some cute embellishments and ribbons.   Voila! A simple and easy gift card holder for those larger sized gift cards.  The bulk of the tweens and teens on my list j...

Making a Sugar Cookie "Gingerbread" House

Image
 Alec really wanted to try making his own gingerbread house this year without using a premade kit.  We talked about how we never really eat the house since they don't taste very good.  Years ago we gave up on the frosting that comes in the kit and began making our own so we thought perhaps we should try making our our house too. Only problem is that no one in the house likes gingerbread.  We talked about trying to make the house using a sugar cookie recipe.  Alec was so excited at that idea since he just LOVES sugar cookies.   He found a recipe online for a simple sugar cookie recipe and mixed up the dough.  He rolled it out an cut it to the size of our cookie sheets-- we had read that it's easiest to cut the house pieces out after the dough has been baked and is still warm and soft because then you don't have to worry about any of the pieces losing their shape while baking. I had picked out a simple cookie cutter set on Amazon and as soon as the ...

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Image
Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the whit...
