The Garden Club Luncheon

My dear friend, Rose, invites me to attend her garden club luncheon each December. I enjoy spending the day with my sweet friend and all these other beautiful women so very much. 


The fabulous elves are my friend Shirley and her beautiful granddaughter, McKenzie. She has been a member of the Hill & Dale Garden Club since she was three. Each year McKenzie gets to choose what she and her grandmother will wear. It is always a treat to see how they are dressed!






There is always live music to set the tone for the day.


Rose makes everyone feel at ease with her sweet smile and polite manners. My necklace is from S.M. Bradford Co. on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.


The garden club President is shown below. Isn't that a great sweater?!



Love her fabulous hair!


So many treasures! How do we decide?


Laughter with friends is the greatest gift of all!





This lady looked so regal.


My beautiful, inspiring friends Sandy and Susan.






This petite lady stands less than five feet tall. Proper proportion makes the look of a tunic over leggings and boots very successful for her.










Fun sparkled boots!


This is my beautiful friend Ann. That smile reflects her inner beauty as well.

After the luncheon, Rose and I visited one of her favorite boutiques, the Galleria in Bristol, Virginia, located at 100 Linden Square Drive. When we walked in, this lovely woman came up to tell me that she had been following Fifty, not Frumpy, since before she moved to this area from Pennsylvania. Thank you for coming up to say hello, Leigh. I hope your event is lots of fun!

Hill & Dale Garden Club Brunch

It's that time of year when my sweet friend Rose invites me to be her guest at the Hill & Dale Garden Club Christmas Brunch.



There were so many beautiful and yummy looking items in the auction this year!









It's great to visit with friends we haven't seen for a while and have a mimosa while shopping for gift items in the auction.

As always, there was beautiful music and carols to set the mood.


My dear sweet friends Rose and Mitzi.







Girls do love their shoes!











The red blouse is from Express. The black faux leather-trimmed ruana wrap is from Carlisle Per Se. The waxed jeans and the gray bling sleeve cardigan are from Chico's. The boots are from Nine West via Saks Off 5th.
