Spring OOTD, Plaid, Purple and clearance finds

While wondering the isles at Wal-mart I found my self in the boy's section at a clearance rack and found the most amazing plaid shirt with beautiful spring colors of Blue's, Gray's and Purples with flecks of Silver.  Perfect for Spring/Summer Pairings as well as impromptu rodeo's for only $3.00.

I tried this little beauty over my turtleneck...A bit snug but all the buttons done up I could still breathe so I bought it.

Today I used my find to put together a Spring outfit.  

The colors don't look so good in the picture, the sweater is not as Pink as showing ~ is more of a deep lavender and matches perfectly with the purple in the shirt.  The Skirt is also not showing in the picture its true color, its more of a dark purple.  

I can't wait to style this shirt with my other Spring/summer staples that are still packed away because we still are getting snow.  

Do you have any ideas on what to pair my new plaid shirt with?  Share and comment below.

Thank you for reading my beautiful friends!

A shoe story, DIY shoe color

This weekend I was scrolling through YouTube and found a few DIY projects that included painting your old/older shoes to freshen them up.  Here  and Here and Here . I had a pair of shoes purchases a few years back from Target that had seen better days but they were still solid and perfectly fitting shoes.  The color had faded a bit and they had some staining from winter weather.  I decided to try to freshen them up with some craft paint.  I also have been on the hunt for a pair of Navy/blue shoes and weren't able to find a pair that I liked anywhere.  Me, always on the look out for a deal, and always looking for a quick DIY project I thought Why Not!

I purchased a bottle of Craft paint from Wal-Mart for .50 cents and a foam paint brush for .67 cents.  Went home, cleaned up my shoes and started painting.

They came out pretty good if I do say so myself.

Friday OOTD, Layering on color for Spring

Today's outfit consists of my husbands button up blue dress shirt, layered over it is my light weight teal sweater.  I am wearing my black skinny dress pants and silver flats. I have layered over top my 3/4 sleeve spring jacket and a blue coordinating scarf.
