Jalapeño Inspiration

My jalapeño plants are producing dozens of little jalapeño peppers now. I couldn't help but think of green... and the Dolce and Gabbana green snakeskin Mary Jane shoes that have been sitting in my closet. They were my inspiration when I styled this outfit.  I usually start with the shoes and work my way up.

I got the jacket on Etsy for $120. It was originally sold in the 80's for $1100.  Remember the show Dynasty? This jacket would have been worn by Crystal or Alexis.  

The D & G shoes retailed for $750 and I snagged them on eBay for $225. How could I resist?  This is what I call bargain shopping. :-)

The vintage croc bag is a MUST for Fall, so if you have the patience, hunt one down like I did. I am MAD for this bag, it is so perfect I love it so much! Thank you MB.

Patent leather green watchband on the Michele watch. I am loving this timepiece and all the opportunity for color it provides. I got an amazing deal on this watch on eBay. Such a great bargain that I almost feel guilty. 

The silk blouse is pre-owned. Did you know that clothes do not break down in the land fills?  Buying pre-owned clothing and accessories is the ONLY truly green way to shop for a closet. 

A perfect pepper.

Enjoying the beautiful sunshine today. The weather was just perfect.

When I found out about  Tooth Soap® I've never turned back! It leaves my teeth feeling so smooth, fresh and healthy! I never liked the chemical taste toothpaste seemed to leave in my mouth. I've had a clean bill of health after all my 6-month (dental) checkups. Tooth Soap® also helps in the re-mineralization process of teeth that have been damaged. Love that part. Tooth Soap® doesn't contain glycerin, which coats your teeth (like toothpaste).  Again, Tooth Soap® allows your teeth to remineralize, and stay healthy! ~ Mary T., Minnesota
