Monday ~ Purple Passion

This past weekend me and my 2 teen kids went back home to the Rio Grande Valley in deep south Texas. I spent the weekend with my grandmother who is aging fast. We don't know how much longer we have her so time is precious. She used to take care of me when I was a little girl. My kids went to their old high school to visit with friends. Friday night my son went the high school football game to watch the Weslaco Panthers. Saturday during the day we went to watch my nephews play youth football. The kids were so little and cute. They are all in elementary and had so much fun. My sisters and brother-in-laws are so awesome. They involve their kids in sports and they entire family gets involved coaching and supporting the teams.

I did make time to take my kids to the mall. My daughter loves Bath and Body Works. We both bought the Dark Kiss lotion and body spray. Seeing the display at Bath and Body Works of deep purples makes me now want to infuse some purple in my style.

I don't own a single piece of purple clothing or accessories. I don't even have purple decorations in the house. I'm on a mission to get some purple passion. Wouldn't be daring to find a deep purple leather jacket...wow!! I could also look for a purple purse or at the very least look for purple flowers to pin on my jackets. I found the purple pillows on Horchow online. I like to sew but that is a lot of detail work. Sometimes it is better for me to buy than to make.

  1. Yoli, that purple is great!! I have a little of it.. a jacket that I love wearing with a lime green turtle neck sweater. Give the combination a try. It's very uplifting and fun.
    Keep me posted on your Dias Festivos plans. I usually go, but sometimes skip. But now that I know you'll be there... I will make sure to go.
    Thanks for the visit.
    Have a great week.
