What I Wore Sunday, Volume 14

Well, after a couple of weeks away from this fun and faith-filled fashion link-up, I decided to show you what I wore Sunday (yesterday, that is).  So once again, I'm linking up with the gals over at Fine Linen and Purple for another episode of WIWS.

For Mass yesterday, I wore a Dress Barn polka-dot dress that I've had forever (almost) and already modeled for this link-up (in this post back in March).  It's the comfiest dress in the world, made out of a stretchy knit that is perfect for traveling.  You can pluck it from your jam-packed suitcase and put it right on without giving a thought to finding an ironing board, because it just doesn't wrinkle.  (With all my travels these days to visit my kids and grandkids, it's exactly the sort of dress I need.)

I thought I'd jazz this dress up and change the look of it completely by pairing it with a Kelly green cotton shrug, which was a bargain ($10.99!) I found at BJ's Wholesale Club. (Strangely enough, the same place where I go to buy food staples in Army-feeding-sized packages is where I seem to find a lot of my wardrobe pieces these days.)  I'm also wearing a favorite pair of black patent "leather" ballet flats from Payless (old news--you don't need to see those again), my vintage Snap-it Beads pearl necklace, with four beads removed so that it would be just the right length for the neckline of this dress (I've shown you those before--remember?), and a lace chapel veil that I stitched up on my Kenmore sewing machine after I left my favorite black veil (ordered from a great site called "Veils by Lily") in a hotel room or on an airplane, I'm not sure which, on one of my many aforementioned trips.

Okay, now tell me: on Sunday, what were you wearin'?  Or more importantly, what were you drinkin'? (Did you notice my cup?)

Well, after Mass my husband and I stopped by Dunkin' Donuts on our way back home.  Not that we ALWAYS do this, you understand; but Dunkin' Donuts just happens to be VERY CLOSE to our parish church...and we both love donuts, and I love coffee...so you know what I was drinkin'.  Happiness in a Styrofoam cup, that's what--my standard order. Cream?  Yes! Sugar?  Yes!...And make it a large, please!
