Fashion Friday

Isn't this skirt cute? I love that double ruffle on the bottom. This week I thought I'd show some transition fashions to take us into fall. Here in So. California we don't get cool weather until the end of October or November but I like to pretend we have a change of seasons anyway. All these clothes are from Lane Bryant.

I like the abstract print on this top. It looks great for work or just being out and about.

This would really work here where it's still hot for awhile. Cute little dots and I love the long tie on the V neck.


Darling dressy top to go out to dinner in. I really like that lace collar.



I love lace and this teal color would be pretty. I like separates to mix and match with things I already have.




Another pretty lace top. This one has ruffles around the neckline. I almost bought this.





This is the one I bought. It looks alot better in person. I wore it last night to the Sheraton and got lots of compliments. Jennifer said the blue made my blue eyes "pop." The V neck front is smooth with double ruffle sleeves.
Have a fabulous weekend! Hugs, Susan

Humphrey's

The fountain outside of Humphrey's. I went to Shelter Island in San Diego to see my friends in Art of Sax do a concert at Humphrey's.
A view from the hotel grounds.

Looks a lot like Hawaii. San Diego is a beautiful city. Wonderful weather and lots of things to do.


Landscaping at Humphrey's.



Gorgeous flowers.




This view is through the window in the lounge where the band played.





Alice Cooper on the wall.






Will and Steve. The lighting wasn't that great for photos.







Steve, Will, Patrick and Eddie.

This was a fabulous show! Great music and lots of fun!
Have a great day! Hugs, Susan

Sorry about some double pictures...my cat made me do it. Pepper AKA Boo AKA Bonnie (as in Bonnie and Clyde) was messing with me and the computer and I hit the wrong thing and now there are these extra pictures which I don't know how to delete.

Humphrey's

Beautiful Pool...it does look inviting.

No, this isn't Hawaii. This is in San Diego. Sunday I'm going there for a mini vacation (one night). The band is playing there and some of us are going to see them.


It does remind me of Kauai.

This is the Marina next to the hotel. These pictures are from the Hotel's website.
I'll take some pictures too while I'm there.
Right now I'm off to the Orange County Fair. I'll be posting again on Monday.
Have a great weekend!
Hugs, Susan

A Cruise up the the Napali Coast

We took a dinner cruise with Captain Andy's Cruises. This was really fun and the second time I've done it. I'll do it again next time I go, too. If you go and get motion sickness be sure to take some meds for it. This is not a gentle little sail but it's tons of fun! It would be an E ticket ride at Disneyland if they still had E ticket rides. It's not scarey but it is bouncy and you'll probably get wet but who cares? The dinner buffet is good, too and the crew are really nice.

Now to the pictures.






























Lots of movies are filmed on the Napali Coast because it's so scenic!
Hugs, Susan

Tomkats Grille

This is Tomkats Grille in Koloa ( I think Koloa...I can't find my guide book). Anyway it's a great place for sandwiches. Two actual cats reside there.
This guy walked around trying to get a taste from the diners.

This is Snowball. She slept under my feet the whole time we were there. My mission was to get Caren a T-shirt from there which couldn't be accomplished because they were all out of pretty colors. So I got her a pretty purple one in Hanalei.
Lots of Hugs, Susan

More Pictures of Paradise

This was at the Botanical Gardens.

There are more that one hundred statues here.

A little girl having a tea party with her cat.

















A Big Fish Tale.






Children walking on a log.
















These children are rescuing their cat from the tree.






















This was a really enjoyable tour with eight people on a little open air bus. The driver stopped whenever we wanted (besides his regular stops) so we could take pictures. We also walked around alot so we could really see things.
Can I go back yet?
Hugs, Susan
