Happy Friday, dear gal! I hope your week was a good one and that you have something lovely planned for the weekend. If everything has gone as planned, we are waking up in Columbus this morning after a good visit with my son and daughter-in-law. We’ll be making our way home today, but I’m hoping we do a little more exploring on our way.
I know I’ve posted a lot of linen this week, but these are the photos I had left in the can. That’s another thing we’re hopefully doing today…taking photos! So anyhow, I’m pleased to share with you this lovely, relaxed linen outfit. It’s one of my favorites.
Now I know linen isn’t every woman’s jam. I get that. But these darling marigold linen pants make me oh so happy. They’re comfortable, modern and cheerfully bright! They’re also not available, evidently anywhere other than Dillard’s, which is, indeed, where I got them.
The pants and top are also quite pricey. I got them when they were almost half off, but they’re back to regular price now. However, Macy’s has many similar Eileen Fisher pieces marked down considerably right now. They’re definitely worth checking out.
This organic linen short sleeve shirt is also full price now. But it is amazingly soft and fun to wear. Honestly, I apologize for having to show you this outfit at full price. I love this organic linen, but I probably wouldn’t pay full price for it. But maybe you can get a little style inspiration here!
Now these flip flops are a decent buy. They’re available through Zappos for 25% off, and they’re very comfortable and proving quite versatile. They fit true to size.
I suggest you also check out the Eileen Fisher linen offerings at Bloomingdales and Saks Fifth Avenue, where they have some great deals right now. I think these pants are the same, but in a different color. And this sweet linen dress comes in this pretty marigold color as well as another pretty hue. They’re both marked down.
Thanks so much for stopping in for some style inspiration today. I do hope you have a lovely weekend. Be sure to check in tomorrow for a special shopping post. We’ll be talking about some pretty significant changes in the upcoming Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Did you know that the Bible compares us human beings to sheep…almost all the way from beginning to end? Yep. Dumb sheep. Face it, sheep need a shepherd. They have no means of defending themselves and they’re not the smartest animal. And yes, we really are like sheep in so many ways.
But the Lord is a good shepherd to us. He provides everything we need for the abundant life He has called us to. We simply need to rest in His provisions. Because we have a Good Shepherd we don’t not have to be frantic or worried or anxious. Instead, we can rest from our struggles and trust our Provider. Let’s choose to follow and trust our Shepherd today.
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. ~ Psalm 23:1
Hi Kay, Happy Friday! Enjoy your trip back home today! The past 3-4 days some of the photos in your posts are not downloading. For instance, today the photos of what I presume are your flip flops show only blank squares in the format. I don’t know if it’s a problem on my side of the net or not but I have this happening only on your Blog. And wondering if others are finding this as well.
Hmm. I had it happen once myself the other day on someone else’s blog, refreshed the page and it did fine. So I think it’s more an internet problem. But I’ll check on it. Thanks. 😊
Kay, you look lovely in linen. Love this outfit.
Thanks so much Eileen. 😊
Good morning Kay! First I want to tell you how much I enjoy your YouTube videos. I was skeptical at first and didn’t think it was something I’d watch, but now I look forward to Wednesdays 😊 Great idea and great job!
I wanted to add that, like Nancy mentioned, I have also had a problem with the pictures not loading. On yesterday’s “What I really wore”, a few of the pictures weren’t visible—just a box telling which picture it should be. If I go directly to your website, I can see them; but from the email I couldn’t. 🤷♀️
Safe travels and I hope you enjoy your day!
This outfit is lovely! Such a beautiful color that just radiates up to your face. Cool and comfortable for hot, humid days. (PA has been hot and sticky, yuck.)
Happy Weekend to you and your family!
Safe travels for you as you make your way home.

Marigold pants? YES! I love that color and since I’m adrift in citrus color on everyone I see, I’d fit right in. I think people need color and excitement after being locked down. I’ll bet that is such an easy blouse to make. I’m looking for a pattern online.
Hard to believe the Fourth is 8 days away! I want my year back.
Oh, how I really like today’s BFMD! And Kay, you look so nice in this beautiful linen outfit! The closeup picture of you is beautiful!! I hope that the drive home today was a smooth one and that y’all did stop for some picture taking. We do not have any special plans for the weekend, but I’m okay with that. We still get to watch for the deer and fox squirrels to appear in our yard, which we thoroughly enjoy. And of course the hummingbirds and other birds keep us entertained.
Love the color of these linen pants Kay! Very relaxing look also….
Blessings
What excellent taste you hAve today or is it great minds think alike! I am wearing a butter yellow pair of shorts and white top…both linen. We can’t buy everything you show us so I am fine with a full price outfit. I am always watching for sales on linen. I could wear everyday all summer long!
