$10 dress 2 ways
What is better than getting a super cute dress for only $10? Finding 2 totally different ways to style it.. that's what. I love the bold look of this jeweled dress that I picked up from H&M about a month ago. I thought this would make such a festive holiday dress and wore it to my family Christmas dinner. I love the material kind of structures scuba material . I decided to convert this to an office look by adding this Elle blouse I picked up last year for $8 from Kohl's . I love picking up staple pieces on the clearance rack that I can style various ways. It's amazing how much adding a blouse, jacket or even a piece of jewelry can transform an outfit into a entirely different look. Not to mention a hair style.. It's funny when I am wearing my hair straight I look at pics and say .. Man I want my curls back .. and when it's curly oh I miss wearing my hair straight. That is the beauty of being a woman.. you can always make changes to transform your look. I hope you Fashionista's are having a fabulous Thursday.

Feeling So Fly
Another snowy day in Indiana but that doesn't stop me from wanting to wear this super cute t-shirt from Girl Fly Fashion . You really should check out their facebook page here to get updates on the their upcoming fashion boutique. They are located right here in the Midwest and I can't wait to take a look at their selections. I just love the message on this shirt "Free to be Fly" and I couldn't wait wear this and release my inner fly girl. The kissy lips make this the perfect shirt to wear on a Valentine's lunch date with your sweetie! This shirt had Curlybyrdie all over it! How I love graphic tee's with catchy sayings and designs there are so many styling options. I must admit years ago I would have never thought about styling them with skirts but now I am all about that life! I decided to style this with my striped JLo Midi skirt from Kohl's . I just love this skirt I purchased a navy and white one last year and loved it so much that as soon as I saw the black and white version at Kohl's I just knew it had to be mine. The quality of this skirt is superb and I can definitely see me wearing this year around. How are you fashionista's thinking out of the box with your fashion and styling ?.. I would love to know! Wishing you a lovely week and remember to " Stay Fly "

Curlybyrdie's Show and Tell - Carson's plus more fun deals!
It is that time again another edition of Curlybyrdie's Show and tell. As requested by one of my blog followers I decided to shop Carson's this week and I am sure glad I did. Whenever Carson's have additional 30% off clearance I make it my business to stop in for a gander. Well of course my first stop as always is the dress rack. There were so many awesome deals and I easily could have left with a bag full of dresses I decided to just limited it to one dress. and that was not easy for this dress freak believe me especially when the prices as this awesome! My motto when looking today I would get a dress not that I liked but that I love.. Kind of like a first date... u have to impress me and be like no other..LOL> This Navy blue number was one that I just fell in love with. It is like nothing that I have in my closet. This dress had me at hello :) Which one did you like the best? Did I make the right choice?
Now I couldn't close this blog post without talking about my awesome score from Tar-Jay aka Target. They had 40% off shoes coupon on their Cartwheel app . I was able to score shoes as low as $6 now how sweet is that and I was able to pick up this super cute hate for $10 that I had been eyeing for quite sometime. So if you haven't been to Target in a while you really should stop in.. the clearance is marked down nicely and don't forget to check Cartwheel and mobile coupons for even more savings . Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend full of fantastic finds.

Goodbye is Never Easy
Normally I would be posting about all the awesome deals I found on MLK weekend. You know any holiday they find a reason to have a fabulous sale. This post is something very different it is a post about loss.
This weekend I lost my step father Dave to lung cancer. He was diagnosed in Sept and lost his battle this Saturday. Dave came into my family's life 21 years ago on my 21st birthday. It was a gift that I was not open to receive to say the least . It had been just my Mom and my sisters and my brother for most of our life. We were spoiled we were used to having all my Mom's attention. I was the oldest and I was the worst. It was not an easy transition. There were so many years when I referred to Dave as my " Mom's husband" I didn't want to feel like I was disrespecting my Dad .. yeah crazy I know. Than as time passed and I grew up and I first realized I like Dave.. I liked the way he treated my Mom and how he treated us. He was present at all events in my life and than later in my kids life. They loved him... and I realize I did to. I am so thankful that he came into my Mom's life ,she had been alone for so long and he was companionship for her and a father figure for us. I told Dave months ago how thankful I was that he came into our life and I apologized for years ago when I didn't really make his life that easy and in true Dave fashion.. he told me that I don't have to apologize he understood.
I will miss my step father. I will miss the crazy jokes, the laughter our family holiday's together but most of all I will miss the way he made my Mom feel . Dave I love you and I will never forget what you gave to this family. Rest in Peace.. Until we meet again

Curlybyrdie's Show and Tell -Clothes Mentor
Well happy hump day! We are almost there can you believe it? Last week I had my first post in the Curlybyrdie's Show and Tell series. I highlighted my recent finds at Jcpenney . If you missed it you can see it here. I go into a store selected by me or you and pick my favorite items that are awesome deals and blog about it. It's kind of like you are actually shopping with me without leaving the comforts of your computer. People ofter ask me " How do you find such awesome deals?" . You can now witness the method to my madness first hand!
I decided to shop one of my favorite places for some awesome deals my local Clothes Mentor. The thing that I have learned about shopping second hand is you have to be open minded. What I mean by that is .. what you may have went in there to find may not be what you end up leaving with. LOL. I always try on even if something is not in my size I try it on because not every brands sizes run the same. I even try on petites because maybe a dress that was intended to be midi on a petite person makes a pretty cute knee length dress.
Now one of the first racks I shop when I go here... Or anywhere for that matter LOL. are the skirt and dress rack. What I love about Clothes Mentor you can find some pretty nice name brand dresses and skirts for awesome prices. Now who doesn't love brand name for a good price! Now I couldn't buy out the entire store so I also pictured some super cute items that I had to leave behind.. but the good news is that one of you fabulous ladies might want to give them a home. I scored a Worthington skirt on the clearance rack for $3 and the possibilities with this flared skirt are endless so yes this girl is getting a lot of bang for $3. I also ran across this Catherine Malandrino top that I had wanted from Kohl's but waiting to long and missed out. I was able to find this top NWT for $16 . You never know what treasures you will run across that makes it even more fun!
Don't forget Clothes Mentor pays cash on the spot for all those fashionable pieces in your closet that you are no longer loving but some other fabulous lady might. Also let me know what store you would like to see me shop next . Until next time dolls :)

Sunday Already ????
I can not believe that I am sitting her getting ready for my week! What happened.. not this already . After last week full of crazy cold weather and the flu entering my household I am only hoping that this week can only be better than last week. I was able to spend time with family and get a little shopping in.. The weekend would not be complete without a few deals! It's funny I had a call from my 2 sisters that wanted me to meet them at the mall and help them do some magic. My niece is already in Curlybyrdie training and is getting to be quite the little frugal shopper.. LOL. I also took some time out to tame these curls with a roller set . What I love about a roller set is that the results last well in my hair but with all this thick hair putting those rollers in is no joke.. and dryer time .. Oh honey lets just day my face was red and I couldn't even tell if I was having a hot flash or if I was just plain hot!!!
I got a call from my baby sister telling me I need to get to Macys' immediately .. and I took her word for it and I am glad a I did . I got this darling Made by Impluse dress that is super cute reg $99 for only $22 after coupons. I also scored this pearl choker an old Hollywood looking choker and some matching earrings for such a great deal I can't wait to style these together. Now I was also able to get the top I had on today which is BarIII from Macy's reg $50 for only $15 and this chic little jacket from INC . I love the leather like sleeves with the soft fabric adding this silver zipper just makes it so edgy. I will totally be rocking this many times. This jacket was normally $119.00 and after the coupon I was able to score this for $20 now that is deals at their best. I decided to style these with some skinny pants that I got from Kohl's a while ago and my OTK boots by Simply Vera.. I obsessed with these boots for comfy, chic and easy on the pockets!
I went kind of easy this weekend picked up these Beyoncé type fabulous heels from+Jcpenney. I had $10 rewards and they also had a $10 off 25 coupon so I was able get these fabulous heels and pair of shoes for my Mommy and just pay $13 ..How sweet is that? What fashionable finds did you score this weekend ? What items do you currently have on your wishlist?

Wishlist and Weekend Recap
With the first full week of January 2015 coming upon us. I am trying to figure how long it will take me to write 2015 on everything. Oh those January problems... LOL. I had a good few days off work I was able to spend some quality time with the kiddies and family. I even was able to have a girls night out and it was fabulous to let me hair down a little don't we all need that once in a while.
The weekend wouldn't be complete without a little shopping with my baby girl(yeah she's 16). I was able to score some DKNY jeans reg $69 for only $19.97 at Carson's this weekend now you know me I am very seldom out getting jeans I am a dress kind of girl but how could I pass this awesome deal up and the they fit great and all you pear shaped girls know that when you find a jean that fits well.. u need to go ahead and scoop those up. I used to sleep on Carson's but they are really convincing me that there are deals to be had! LOL .
Now with it being the New Year you can't help but to think about getting healthier. I was really trying to do this during the holiday season but with all the cookies and treats around the office it is almost impossible. So I am ready to get back in the swing and have been working on fitness for the past few weeks. Now I don't know about you but cute gym clothes give me more incentive to get to the gym so I have listed some cute little gym clothes that I want in my closet immediately because honey this girl needs all the motivation she can get!

Finding Mary Frances
Hello 2015, a brand new year with so many possibilities. A clean slate a perfect time to start the process of reinventing oneself. I am on a mission of sorts the name of mission " Finding Mary Frances" #fmf. So now you know my deep dark secret my middle name is Frances. LOL. Growing up that name was not the least bit appealing to me . All while growing up I felt like I had a nun's name... Sister Mary Frances. A nun I am not I can assure you of that LOL. I was named after both of my Grandmother's and my Mom's name is Frances also so now at 42 I couldn't be more honored to carry such a special name because honey those ladies are most certainly one tough act to follow.
I have been kind of quiet over the holiday season. My family is going through a very tough time. My step father is battling stage 4 cancer. It is a very ugly disease and we watch him get weaker and weaker but through all of this one thing this is constant is their faith. My Mom.. ( Frances ) what a loving mother and wife she is. I have learned in the past few months that tomorrow is never promised you never know what your path will be . I feel I have gained a new appreciation for life and I want to experience life... not just go though it.. So this next 12 months will be all about me finding myself getting out of my comfort zone trying new things. Weather it's a new fitness class that I have never tried or visiting new places I want to find my happy place!
I am wishing you all a very Happy New Year ! I wish you happiness, good health and love !

So this next 12 months will be all about me finding myself getting out of my comfort zone trying new things. Weather it's a new fitness class that I have never tried or visiting new places I want to find my happy place!
I am wishing you all a very Happy New Year ! I wish you happiness, good health and love !
