REAL * LIFE * STYLES december 2025, valley fair shopping mall #fashion #reallifestyles


 LOVE this woman's outfit so much!! and she was very gracious about letting me take her picture..  tried to convince me she was in her 70's..   and spoke a little about having already fulfilled her loving responsibilities raising a family, was now enjoying investing in herself..   and in a cute animated whisper she said,  'spending money on clothes...'      well, money well spent! is my vote..  LOVE every piece individually; and as a whole look; how she created harmony out of a mixture of colors, fabrics, textures, patterns..     -always a magnet for my fashion-oriented eyes

and she shared with me, a wonderful compliment, "i noticed you earlier and wanted to say so then but you were walking too fast..    i love what you are wearing, you look so cool and hip..."

"Thank You!"

****

and speaking of walking..    true story: the day prior, NFL Sunday Football...  games at 10am, 1pm, 5:20pm,   i felt such a need to walk and move around on monday, because we sat for so many hours on sunday..


answered prayer in an entertaining way: nordstrom and women's macy's are at practically opposite ends of valley fair mall.  cashier accidentally left the security thing on a couple pieces i purchased..

and true that, when i heard the alarm they set off, a number of people were walking in and out of the same area at the same time, so i didn't think it was an item in my bag that set off the alarm and so, ignored it..

when i heard it again, after walking a football field worth of distance..

so, i stopped at the closest register, hoping someone could help  -different store, but i had the receipt..

denied.

had to go a l l  t   h   e       w    a    y         b  a  c   k      t   o      n     o     r     d     s   t    r    o    m    s

*****

ok,  -no apologies needed; it's a busy time of year, it happens..   and i wanted to walk extra today anyway

*****

this is where it gets even more entertaining..     the exact same thing happened AGAIN.  -cashier still accidentally left a security thing on one of the items..  after 'carefully going through' my bag.

    -i ignored the alarm again for the same reasons...

ended up walking from one end to the next AGAIN. 

****

so, i think i walked 3 or 4 football fields worth on monday, until finally getting home and 

"TOUCH DOWN!"

****

ALL "thank you!" prayers and more community tithing at the places and stores we love to support. 

hallelujah & amen
