You know Elizabeth Taylor was a good woman because she loved horses :)

Simple things you should do...

Compliment three people each day.

Overtip breakfast waitresses.

Look people in the eye.

Say "thank you" a lot.
Say "please" a lot.

Make new friends

Have good posture.

Don't gossip.

Don't spread yourself too thin.

Don't expect life to be fair.

Be bold and courageous.

Don't procrastinate.

Get your priorities straight.

Call your mother and father.

I do not like the word "wide" and refuse to let it be part of my vocabulary but im kinda liking "wide" legged pants and flares! THEY ARE COMING BACK! Lets face it skinny jeans and jeggings made my legs look like plump sausages and it was not flattering! I just hope im tall enough at 5"2 to pull off this flared look! Maybe if i learn to walk in heels i can make it work ;)

Goodbye jeans on the left, hello fabulous jeans on the right! Love her peacoat too with the gold buttons!

Are you guys liking this new/old look?
