Sneak Peek of My New House

July 22, 2016

Want to see a sneak peek of my new house?!  We’ve been building our dream home for a while now.  It took forever for the home to be started due to problems with our builder.  My husband ended up investing in the company a few months ago and things are going much better now and are finally moving along.  As you can imagine, I am thrilled!

I have spent countless hours on Pinterest and Houzz looking for ideas.  I’ve also purchased books and magazine and scoured Google.  I can’t tell you how much time I’ve spent at flooring showrooms, lighting showrooms, walked the aisles of stone slabs and more.  This is our dream home and I’m going to be sure that every single thing is exactly how I want it.  With that being said, lets take a look at a the progress…

I had to wear a hard hat at one of the flooring showrooms today. The perfect selfie shot! And yes, I am wearing clothes! LOL! I have on a strapless dress.

I can’t wait to share updates on the progress of my new house with you.  Stay tuned…

Let me know what you think of my new house so far in the comments below!

      Thanks so much Rita! I’m so excited about it. The backyard is going to be amazing… We already have the completed design, but it will be a few months until they start digging the pool and all. I will definitely share more pictures and maybe even a video. Stacie xo

    Wow! Getting a new house built is so fun but stressful! I hope your journey heads more in the fun direction! I love the rock outside. All we have around here is stucco….I miss other types of outside aesthetics. 🙂

    Looking good! We got a new house last year and thought about building, but ultimately didn’t want the stress. We lucked out and found a perfect preexisting one, but it took awhile to get what we wanted!

    How FUN to get to build your dream home! My hubs is in the military for at least the next 8 years….but whenever we finally get out and settle down, we are both definitely looking forward to building the home of our dreams! One pro to always moving from house to house every couple of years — you are able to experience a wide variety of houses and really fine-tune your wish list! 😛

July favorites photo dump… These are some of t July favorites photo dump… 

These are some of the clothing and accessories that I loved wearing and sharing with you throughout the month of July. And apparently, all of you loved them too!💖💖

These are some of my favorites and bestsellers for women over 50, 60 and beyond. I always say to wear what makes you happy and not what society dictates.  Because if you love what you’re wearing then you’ll feel your best, boost your confidence and achieve your goals.

Age is just a number! Who’s with me?😎

Let me know if you want LINKS to any of these outfits with sizing details.💖

I’m all about affordable fashion (most of the time😉) and shopping the best sales and deals. If that sounds like you too, then give me a follow for lots more.🥰

Happy Monday! I’m back from vacation and already Happy Monday! I’m back from vacation and already dreaming about the next one.

There’s nothing like getting back into the swing of things right away and today’s casual swing dress and jewelry are perfect for the meetings and appointments I have.

But first… a walk with my weighted vest because I actually missed it while I was away. 

Let me know if you’d like the LINKS. The dress is on sale in limited sizes and I have a discount code for the beautiful jewelry.

Have a great week friends!💗

It’s a fabulous strapless lightweight jumpsuit! Just change out your accessories and shoes, maybe add a topper and you’ll be ready for anything.💫

Where would you wear this jumpsuit?💖

This jumpsuit is a cropped length on most, but at a petite 5’1” it is longer on me. It’s great because it accommodates a variety of body types, but I may get it hemmed. Still deciding.🤔

It’s from a brand called The Shirt by Rochelle Behrens. She uses a patented No Gape® button technology in all of her designs so there’s no gaping at the chest. So now we can all feel confident instead of self conscious.💖

She also has some other dresses and beautiful tops, all with the same button technology.💫
