Hi Bubbling and Elegant Readers!
I have been going non-stop and I needed a break. A lot has been on my plate these past two weeks so it’s so nice to sit back and relax. I had tried to post earlier in the week but just couldn’t do it because I needed to get some sleep.
I wanted to share some pics from our Church Anniversary, it was a lovely evening full of great fellowship, music and good food.
Everyone looked so gorgeous all dressed up and decked out.
In the Lobby at the Ritz
I said hi to a really good friend that I have known since I was in grade school. She is like a second mother to me, wonderful woman.

The event was filled with dancing.
The food was delish, lobster ravioli was my hubby’s and my favorite.
The food was great!
My earrings by Amirita Singh are from the QVC Super Saturday event to help in ovarian cancer research and my necklace is made of Italian lire on a silver chain. The cuff, Nolan Miller ring, cameo bracelet and watch was great with the dress. It just worked very well.

The sounds of the choir (not pictured) set the tone for the event. Jesse and his band (pictured below) singing and playing while we were enjoying dinner was so snapping fingers groovy. Jesse and his band did excellent renditions of music by Al Green, Marvin Gaye and Etta James to name a few. They were on fire that night.

Everyone had an awesome time.
We also had the anointed Helen Baylor at the anniversary singing some of her greatest hits; every song she sings is so powerful.
The evening was wonderful. After the anniversary gala was over my hubby and I took pictures.

Okay time for me to take a load off after a beautiful evening.

It’s been really a full month and August has just begun. I think that we will finally get a break from the intense heat.
I have been wearing mainly skirts and dresses. I am loving the yellow because it just gives a soft glow to the face. Bright color can warm your complexion and make you look youthful and full of energy.
If you mainly wear dark colors try a little yellow. Whether it’s a blouse or a scarf headband and see if it brings a smile to your face. Color gives a big boost to your entire persona.
Take a chance and brighten your wardrobe with a piece of color.
Doesn’t color make you feel like walking on sunshine? I am humming the song now, I’m walking on sunshine yeah and don’t it feel good!

I had to give a fabulous mention to my Circa Joan and David shoes in the pic below.

It’s hot all across the country and it makes me yearn for a cool breeze. Well it might not be cool right now; but I sure can give my opinion on heels vs flats.
My hubby takes my pictures and while editing images I looked at this photo with my high heel circa Joan and David heels on. The shoes made me look so much taller and I am over 5’7 in stature.
Women wear heels for a reason and it’s not just because the shoes are cute. It is more to it than that, I believe it is a psychological thing because heels add height and give off such a different look then wearing flats. I don’t know if it’s a feeling of ultimate chicness or it makes my thighs look smaller. These shoes are not comfortable after three or four hours but they look so pretty to me.

Now in flats I think the look is cute, but I love looking taller.

So when it comes down to it, I enjoy wearing both heels and flats. Heels don’t make your feet hurt more than flats, because flats can hurt too. Make sure you can wiggle your toes in your shoes. When you go to the store to try on shoes go at the end of the day because your feet feel different in the morning than when you have walked in them all day. It’s such a bummer to walk around in shoes that aren’t comfortable. Remember shoes can be cute and comfortable.
