    A great top, and I realize that your hemline is a bit longer. I like it in a skirt like that.

    It is so great too see so many sistas with such style. Down here in Mississippi the fashion scene is so boring.

    That purple top is the bomb! I love it! Purple/plum and fuschia are popping up all over this Fall.

    Fashion Guru: Yes and it is a favorite color of mine. So, I am happy! So many choices!

    Seeker: Good catch. I rarely wear skirts longer than my knee because they make my legs look shorter than they already are. But, this skirt is an old old old favorite of mine.

    La Belette Rouge: Ooh nice. I am so inspired by the 1940s.

    Fly Tie: Wow. A zipper in that color must look fantastic! I can’t wait to see what you do with it.

    Toni Alexis: How exciting for you! I will check it out for sure.

    Amina: It is a pretty color and made the top stand out in the BR sale rack 馃檪

    Enc: Thanks. I am loving the idea of cinching my waist too much these days.

    Anonymous: Thank you! I haven’t been to Mississippi yet, but Kentucky is not too inspiring either. I am trying to reserve judgment since I haven’t been here long. Lol.

    Penny-pinching-princess: The lovely t-straps were a fabulous find at Marshalls earlier this year.

    Lil Midget: I appreciate you stopping by!

    Fresh & Fab: So right. It is the same belt though. The angle of the second photo somewhat hides the buckle.
