My beloved...

     A few weeks ago my children and I hosted a surprise 60th birthday party for my husband.  Today, on his birthday, we joyfully celebrate him.

Surprise!!

We did it!  He is so surprised...

The man of the hour...

     He is the most compassionate and giving soul.  He gives and expects nothing in return.  He is a "beautiful man" as I often call him.  His quiet strength is a source of comfort to everyone he knows.

We Love you!

     Family is first and foremost in his book.  A loving and honorable husband, a devoted, loving ever-present father, he is a caring son, brother and a friend you can count on.  It is a privilege to have him in our lives.

Look who's 60!

     Today we wish you all the best life has to offer. We wish you joy, happiness, and good health.  We look forward to many more years of creating new memories and sharing life together with you.

Happy Birthday!

With Love today and always. xo

Super Bowl "50" attire...

     So, Super Bowl Sunday is February 7th. What do I wear when my team, "America's team - The Dallas Cowboys," (no judgment please) aren't in the Super Bowl? 

AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas

     Well, first I decide who to root for.   Do I like the team color enough to invest in a little team spirit?  The Denver Broncos with a 14-4 record...I like the idea of heels with team spirit.

     The Carolina Panthers with a record of 17-1? Black and Blue, that works too!

     Looking for just the right look for Super Bowl Sunday? Check out The NFL shop website http://www.nflshop.com/Alyssa_Milano . Alyssa Milano teamed up with the NFL to create a line of apparel with on trend NFL styles for the ladies. 

     On a day with a somewhat National Holiday status, it is still important to maintain a "chic" appearance.  Who said we couldn't watch football "sporting" a little panache and style?

     I've decided I can't decide on a team!  I will choose who I am rooting for on Super Bowl Sunday. 

     In the meantime, I take into consideration, like most of us, "sitting" watching Super Bowl, means the consumption of large quantities of snacks and libations.  So comfort is key!

     I think I will leave it at that.  Comfort and football spirit will be my accessory as I enjoy along with everyone else the outcome of the year's biggest football game.  

As ever,

Add a Collar...

     My latest find this week is a FABULOUS vintage fox collar!  

I am styling the collar with just about everything.

     The amazing fullness of the collar is the quintessential accessory. 

       The collar nestles in to add warmth and sizzle with glamour.

     Talk about a feeling of lux! Winter is here for a few more long weeks but I don't mind, as it will give me cause to style this beautiful collar with everything I wear.  

As ever,

Today on my shoe wish list...
