Can I tell all you gals how much I love jean jackets and leather boots? I remember years ago when Ralph Lauren came out with denim looking bedding mixed with floral….I swooned over that. Old Ralphie just had a way of making good old denim look good not only on people but everywhere we live!
Stripes have been and still popular this year. I found this gold one at old navy and while I love stripes I still have to have a vertical line so I added in this warm colored printed scarf…which helps to draw your eye down.
Sorry the pic is a tad blurry but I love love love these boots from TJMAXX
The detailing on the back is what made me decide to grab them..rustic yet glamours in a way. Can I tell you how comfortable these babies are? My footies thank me everytime I wear them! The color of the leather is perfect in my eyes.
Me just goofin around with my ever present granny glasses. Did I ever tell you my son in law told me I act like a 15 year old trapped in a 50 something body…nahh not me LOL
Enjoy playing with your clothes, mix stripes with patterns and use textures like denim. And leather….you can’t go wrong.
Two of my very best pals and I went to lunch and we just laughed and laughed about old times talked about raising children, weddings, divorces, hot flashes and how we love the Lord and trust in His ways even when times are tough. I am so grateful to be friends with these two..one of which I have known for over 35 years! Love you Nicki and Kari you bring sunshine into my life everytime we get together 🙂
Happy Friday everyone!
Karins KottageWelcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with!
You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too!
I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
