Saturdays on the Porch #24
Similar Hat | Red Boho Dress | Rattan Bracelet | Gold Bracelet | Rattan Bag | Rattan Earrings | Sandals
I've had my eye on this dress from Amazon for a while now. I don't wear red a lot but decided on this color for fall.
I actually bought it to wear for this cruise line campaign. You can see the video that I created HERE and the Instagram post HERE.
Similar Hat | Red Boho Dress | Rattan Bracelet | Gold Bracelet | Rattan Bag | Rattan Earrings | Sandals
It's the perfect travel dress. I like to pack outfits that will work day and night.
Fit Tip: I am wearing a size medium in the dress.

Pull it off the shoulder, add a heel and a clutch for the evening. It's lightweight and very figure-flattering. I love an easy, relaxed, and flowy dress on the bottom with a fitted look on the top.

Wear it this fall with a denim jacket and boots!

This is perfect here in the south. Wear it without the jacket during the day and have it ready for cooler evenings.
Silver Neck Wrap Blouse | White Jeans | Similar White Jeans | Sandals | Similar Clutch | Horn Bracelet
Several weeks ago, I shared that I had my eye on this blouse. It went on sale, and I scooped it up! It is still on sale.
Fit Tip: I ordered a Chico's size 1. I wanted a looser, longer fit and it's perfect.
I'll wear it now with white denim. The denim below is Chico's. I am wearing a 1 in those. I typically wear a .5 in their pants but usually like to size up a bit in white pants.
Silver Neck Wrap Blouse | White Jeans | Sandals | Similar Clutch | Horn Bracelet | Mirror
The blouse is gorgeous!!! It's a satin-like material, but more of a matte finish. It's not too shiny at all. I love the neckline. The scarf wraps around the neck. You can wrap it twice like I've done for more of a turtleneck look or wrap it once and wear it looser around the neck.
I'll be wearing it with blue denim and black dress pants as well. It will be gorgeous with a black blazer.
I've had these open-toe wedges for a few years now. They are so comfortable. They come in several colors and are sale!!
Speaking of blazers!!!! Ashlyn picked out a couple of business-like pieces from Express. She graduates in December. She is 6 feet and has an issue with sleeve length. She got this blazer. It looks amazing, but a bit short in the sleeves on her. I tried it on and the medium is perfect for me. I may have to order one of my own if she keeps it. It's knit and very comfortable and flattering. I really like blazers with jeans.
We spent a couple of nice days at Broadway Lake in Anderson, SC. It was gorgeous. Going during the week, we literally had the lake to ourselves. There were a couple of skiers late in the evening. We had beautiful weather. It was a nice recharge for the soul.

We had a fabulous few days at the Broadway Lake Airbnb. It was just my hubby and me with my sister-in-law and her husband. Woods and Ashlyn stayed home since they had classes and took care of our pets. They came up each evening for dinner and to enjoy the lake. They'd bring Bentley and Daisy, my inlaw's dog when they came each evening. We do not own a boat. We rented this pontoon boat. I must say that I could get really used to lake life
Face Mask | Similar Headband | Mask Brush
After 5 days with my family, my face was showing the effects of eating what I wanted. Plus, I've been getting menopausal breakouts. I've been using this clay mask and brush since 2016! I mix a small amount of the clay powder in a glass bowl with a wooden spoon with water to make a thinner paste.
Then just keep layering it on with the brush. I use this brush with all of my messier face masks. It keeps your fingers clean.
I leave it on while I do things around the house. I will rinse it off in the shower using a wet washcloth. Your face may be slightly red afterward, but that goes away. It will dry tight and hard. It clears up my blemishes and shrinks pores like you wouldn't believe!
