Statement Necklace Organization

Today my husband finally hung my hooks for my necklaces. We bought these key hooks from Target about 3 months ago and I've probably asked him 6 times and today he finally did it. I originally had these draped over an iron mannequin but they were too heavy and weighing it down on one side, plus it was hard to get them off. I like the simplicity of these and how they're right next to my clothes in the closet so when I'm choosing what to wear I can see the jewelry too. 

4th of July

This 4th of July I had to work..which I really didn't mind because my husband is on call with his work so we wouldn't be able to make plans anyway. So today I thought about wearing something completely non-patriotic but just thought I had to put something together and I'm glad I did. Sometimes I think outfits related to a country or football teams can be very cheesy so I tried to stay simple. Fashion to me is whatever I feel like wearing and sometimes it may not be the color cheme of the holiday or game day but this year I went along with the crowd. I pulled these red linen pants from Victorias Secret that I actually wore last July 4th with this navy Michael Kors tank and Derng bead necklace topped with a red lip. Had the red, white and blue thing nailed I thought until my husband insisted my top was black. I had to show it to him next to black to prove it. Michael Kors navy is a true, deep navy. Almost a midnight blue. So to a lot of people it is easily mistaken for black. So perhaps I got looks today thinking I was a Georgia fan in red and black but I knew it was navy and I felt patriotic. I'm very blessed to have freedom in this wonderful country.

So I had to take a picture at my front door when leaving for work this morning. Love this American flag doormat from my store! 

And so this year I ended the day with chocolate pie and wine after having steaks with my mom, stepdad and brother to celebrate America and my brothers birthday which was a couple days ago. No fireworks this year but I'll be looking forward to next and enjoying my quiet time tonight:)

Light Chambray

Today's look was this chambray button down dress from Gap Outlet that I purchased this past weekend. It's an easy throw on for a hot summer day like today. I really need to get more dresses in my wardrobe especially with how hot this summer has been. I was going to put a green beaded necklace but it just wasn't right so I grabbed this Jcrew Factory necklace and it popped perfectly. Add the infamous Target glitter sandals and I was ready for the day!
