One the best pictures I've taken since I turned 50.

It's a selfie from outside the Frist Center for the Visual Arts. I love the diffuse nature of the light.

Sunday outfit, May 13, 2018

Red jacket
R/W/B top
White jeans
White trainers (I was doing greeter duty, and I ended up doing tour duty, as well)
Red straw picture hat with R/W/B scarf (found hat at Goodwill, added scarf)
Vintage blue pocketbook
Sterling bangle
Sterling/gold/pearl rings
White sunglasses

This is the hat I wore to the Iroquois Steeplechase on Saturday.

I have a physical in two weeks.

So I'm trying to eat more healthy food. I'll also start walking again after Steeplechase this weekend.

Today, I had bran cereal for breakfast, vegetable soup for lunch, and 2 halos for a snack. Tonight, I'll eat the last of the meatloaf and a baked potato (no butter). Then I'll have a cup of grapes for dessert.

Sunday, I'm planning on making pork meatballs and red sauce, and I'll have those for supper for the rest of the week. I'll need to pick up feta, tomatoes, green onions, and cucumbers to make a chopped salad to go with it.

Sunday Outfit, 5/6/18

I'm going to try to keep up with my Sunday outfits, so I don't repeat them too often. This Sunday, I wore:

Black/white swing coat with puffed 3/4 sleeves and a shirred collar
Narrow black pants
Black trainers (I was ushering)
Black asymmetrical sinamay hat that I bought in Seattle
John Atencio sterling and gold bracelets
Sterling, gold, and pearl rings (Atencio and Barrack)

Personal Fashion Post

I was styling last night at the church concert with the Violins of Hope. I have a fringed, B/W sweater tunic that, if you lay it flat, looks like a rectangular poncho, but it's stitched and cut under the arms to give it shape. So I wore that, slim black pants, a brimmed vintage straw hat shaped like the one Audrey Hepburn wore in "Breakfast at Tiffany's", a vintage black and silver-tone pendant, and an armful of silver bangles. A woman I had never seen before saw me in the church parking lot and said, "I love your outfit! You look beautiful!" Such is the power of a well-deployed hat. ~(:-)

Ghost Forest

These are photos that I took while on vacation in Shenandoah National Park last week. It was foggy the first and third days I was there, and I was fascinated by the imagery of the trees in the mist.
