We have had record amounts of rainfall in our area this summer, but that doesn't keep Mr. Mickey and me from taking fun trips to neighboring towns.
During the first part of the day, I wore khaki ankle pants from Chico's with a tank top from Stein Mart and a lightweight red jacket from Chico's. The bag is by Coach. The sandals are Kenneth Cole Reaction via T.J.Maxx.
We enjoyed our stay at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, which is very convenient to downtown and the shopping areas off of Kingston Pike. The odd spots in this photo are raindrops on the lens ... of course.
In honor of our visit to this famous French restaurant, I wore side zip black ankle pants from Talbots and a black tank top from Stein Mart, along with a sheer black jacket with a soft ruffle at the front. The jacket is many years old. The shoes are also old by Sam and Libby. The ribbon detail clutch is from Stein Mart.
We had dinner at The Orangery, which is a landmark in Knoxville. Being a great lover of all things French, I was thrilled just to be in the midst of all the building's statuary and architecture. The food and service were both superb! We will return as soon as possible.
The World's Fair was held in Knoxville in 1982, which is why this fabulous park was built.
I wore white ankle pants by Peck and Peck from Stein Mart with a Chico's skinny sweater over a white Chico's tank for the trip home. The shoes are also by Kenneth Cole Reaction via T.J.Maxx.

Hello Susan! I am new to your blog and have enjoyed reading old post. As a 56 year old it is nice to find like minded people who believe even women our age can still be fabulous!
Love this post. (and, as I am a Chico's ADDICT, I recognized all items) :)
You look wonderful in each photo! Loved the chic and elegant black look for dinner. C'est tres beau! And the red jacket is so adorable. That is the prettiest pic of you.
Inspiring!

A lovely weekend despite the rain! You look fabulous in all the outfits.
That chicos sweater looks great on you!
Looks like such a fun weekend! Love the black dinner ensemble!
I live just outside Knoxville, in nearby Maryville. I'll need to check out that antique shop.
We took a drive to the Smokies yesterday, and the same raindrops that you were dodging were bothering us. We didn't get much walking in.
I just turned 50 early this month, and enjoy your blog.
Ooh la la, the all black outfit is tres chic.
Love all these looks, and esp the super-chic black one. Thanks so much for sharing the beauty with Visible Monday.
Thank you for showing us Knoxville, Tennessee.Very interesting pictures.
Rainfall itself doesn't make unhappy at all. You look happy and shining.
All black (from feet to the head ) I was thinking it were sad , but I have to reconsider.( or what about a colorful
scarf or piece of light jewelry ? )
