Share the Covers--Simple Man
The phenomenal original by Lynyrd Skynyrd . . .
And the rockin' cover by the Deftones . . .
As you may have been made aware, from my perspective May has sucked. But, it is almost over. And that means it's time to reflect and take in all the blessings.
And that's why this song is perfect for today's Share the Covers series. It's so important to give thanks and notice for the simple things in life.
So today I'm gonna look back on all the great things I've been blessed with this last few days. Of which includes this article written about my niece in the Special Olympics!
So take a look back with me on the past few days and indulge with me the simple things that have made my days just a bit brighter . . .
White Cotton Dress-thrifted; Gold Sequined Smoking Slippers-Target; Teal Beaded Necklace-DIY and gifted; Yellow Houndstooth Cardigan-Forever 21, thrifted; Earrings-gifted
My niece, Anya, getting her face painted at the Farmer's Market. She chose a black widow. With glitter, of course. It's so Anya. She's perfect.

My oldest son, Kaden, rockin' some serious style for the film festival at his school featuring a film he was in for school. Word on the street is some girl asked him out in this outfit in front of his girlfriend! Oh snap! ;-)

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
