OOTD – The Posh.mina
Posted on: February 26, 2013
Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday.
I hope you had a nice weekend and that your Monday was productive and stress free.
My weekend was nice starting with attending the C.O.D.E. Conference on Saturday, which was an awesome event for small business owners. Does your city or state provide free conferences or seminars for the advancement of their small business owners?
Sunday I didn’t attend church instead lounged around getting some much needed R&R and then afternoon shopping with my son which was a rare treat for me, he’s at the age when being with mom is not cool. I remember praying for a boy each time I was pregnant, but sometimes I wish I had a girl to shop with especially now that my grandmother is no longer with me. She and I loved to hang out…shopping for bargains…eating out …laughing…just having fun…I really miss her, which is why I started blogging.
This morning I heard birds chirping and the weather has been so mild. With little to no significant snow I’m hoping Mother Nature isn’t trying to lull us into a false sense of “it’s Spring”! Remember the catch phrase, “it’s not nice to fool Mother Nature”, well I hope she reciprocates.
Today I am wearing the Posh.mina that I reviewed (here) last month and because it’s one of my favorite colors it will definitely become a closet staple in high rotation.

OOTD – Belt It Yay or Nay ?
Posted on: January 2, 2013
Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Now that the holidays are over and everyone is back to school and work we are now looking forward to the first major snow storm of the year. If I had it my way it wouldn’t hit until late March and then a quick thaw straight to Spring! I hope your Hump Day is progressing nicely and that you are not trying to cram 5 days of work into 3, but if you are, stop…take a deep breath and say, “the weekend is almost here!”
Belt or not?
I didn’t wear it to work because I felt it would take away from the necklace, what do you think?

Hello friends and Happy Tuesday before Thanksgiving
Yesterday, after work I met with two representatives from The Money School of Delaware. They had read my post, “From Purses to Portfolios” and were so impressed that they offered me an opportunity to create their blog as well as host various training webinars. Attending events and writing about women’s issues mixed with the fashion and savings was exactly where I wanted to take this blog. Now that this has come to fruition so quickly I want to thank God for I am truly blessed and look forward to working with some great people at The Money School.
I will keep you posted as to when it goes live because it will be separate from my dedivahdeals blog.

Hello Friends and Happy Election Day 2012
The weekend was great and yesterday seemed to fly by so I didn’t get a chance to post Monday’s Outfit of the Day. I am still praying for those affected by Hurricane Sandy as the temps are dropping with another storm predicted for tomorrow.
Yesterday was sunny but cold so I briefly ran out onto the back deck so my son could get these shots. He starts working on the 14th so I need to learn how to use the tripod and timer on my camera – that is going to be fun.

Have a fantabulous day – Smooches!
I woke up Saturday to “Mom…mom…mom” while being poked in the back….”mom mom are we still going shoe shopping? Oh yea, that got me up and going, it was music to my ears. He actually wanted new sneakers but shoe shopping in any shape, fashion or form is a good day. I had two DSW coupons for $25.00 off my next purchase as well as a balance on a gift card so that’s where we were headed but first we stopped at Burlington Coat Factory. Malik is still on the Graduated License program for supervised driving so I was a passenger on this mission.
It’s a Good Day – my son is taking me shoe shopping!
He found a pair of Cadillac sneakers for $25.00 (yea Malik) but also 2 jackets and a watch, me…nothing but pictures which I will post later. I’m not sure if they are pairing down the shoe department or waiting for the Fall collections, but they really didn’t have anything that called out “buy me buy me”. The price of the sneakers and jackets wasn’t bad but the cashier asked if I would complete a phone survey, for which I would receive 20% off the highest priced item. Sure, so after completing the survey she re-rang one of the jackets saving me an additional $15.00. It’s a a Good Day!
Cadillac Sneakers – $24.99
- Jacket on clearance for $49.98, but got an additional $14.99 off – paid $34.99
- Watch – $19.99
- $39.99
Next we drove over to DSW, Malik didn’t find anything but I found a cute pair of Chinese Laundry suede pumps for less than $10.00! They were on clearance, 30% off $49.94, and using my two coupons and gift card nothing came out of my wallet, Saturday Shoe Shopping with Son was a VERY good day!!
Clearance $49.94 plus 30% off plus $25 off coupons = $9.96 – used gift card – paid $0
- So comfy1
