Sleeping beauty and cruise wear

We have had a busy week as Maisie had a make-up gymnastics practice Wednesday afternoon so she was at the gym for practice Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday and after no nap Thursday afternoon, the girl was downright tired. I got Maisie in bed a few minutes after 7PM and she asked to take her reading books with her but by the looks of it, she didn't do much reading as this picture was taken at 7:30 and she was o.u.t!!

I too have had a busy week as I have been on the search for clothing appropriate for our cruise. Maisie has oodles and oodles of clothes and other than a new pair of dressy shoes and well, a new Princess tiara that I couldn't resist, the girl is set. I on the other hand had nothing because back the beginning of winter I cleaned out my closet and gave away or donated every piece of clothing that I had so other than some winter clothes that I purchased at the beginning of the season I needed help. I now have some pants, tops, some sweaters and even a few pretty dresses for the evenings. All the dresses I purchased are very summery and though they'll be a little light for the cruise, they'll serve me well over the summer and I have little shrugs or Pashminas to go with all of them to help keep me warm. Here are piccies of a few of my favorites.

This one is my favorite and I have a little black shrug to wear with it to keep me warm.

For this one I have a nice Pashmina wrap.

Okay I love this Pink hydrangea sheath too, I think I'm loving flowers this season and the magenta shrug that I have to go with this is just perfect.

This Midnight paisley tiered dress is just fun and flirty and I can either wear my black shrug or the Pashmina.

In other news, I hurt my knee this week and spent a few days on crutches and limping around but after keeping off of it, keeping it elevated, lots of icing and some meds, thankfully it's doing better. I saw my doctor today and he's sending me to an orthopedist as my knees are both in pain and swollen with built-up fluid and they're doing way-too-much snap, crackle and pop so there's something going on. On a more positive note, I got my repaired camera back today so I'm a happy girl and look forward to taking some good pictures of my sweet little Maisie Miao Miao.
