What I Wore- College Graduation Day!!

May 19, 2017 by Sharon

As I hit “publish” on this post, I’m watching it snow outside my window in these beautiful New Mexico mountains! I’d love to be back in the Texas sunshine today!!

When I married Dr. T, I added to my wonderful bevy of nieces and nephews. One of those sweet souls graduated from college last weekend. Isn’t it wonderful that our hearts have an infinite capacity for love? Isn’t it marvelous that we can instantly fall in love with others- especially children? These added nieces and nephews are so easy to love because they have loved and accepted me so freely!! I didn’t get to watch them grow up like I did my niece and nephews in my family and in R’s, but they hold a special place in my heart, just like those precious nieces and nephews that I got to see grow up!!

It is already hot in Texas so I had to find something to wear that would still look nice after a day in that Texas heat!! I chose a pair of jeans and a new blouse that I ordered online. I discovered this online shop on a New Mexico fashion blog that I follow called More Than Turquoise. Jamie likes to mix designer pieces with inexpensive items which is what I like to do as well so I always like to see what she has put together. Several of the things she shares come from Shein. That is where I found this cute blouse.

Blouse from Shein, Jeans- Seven, Shoes- Coach (similar)

                                       You won’t believe the price on this blouse. Wearing my favorite

                                                        necklace- Bittersweet Design. Purse- Burberry 

                                                                                     

With the graduate!!

With my sweetheart! I’m so thankful for this man!!


                                                                                            We are ready for summer!!
