Why Am I Unimpressed by Engagement Rings?

by @ 2:43 pm. Filed under Insights

I was considering this about myself today, and I want to know if there is anyone out there who is as unimpressed as me. 

I am unimpressed by engagement rings. I don’t see their point. I think they are a waste of money. I think a woman should be more concerned with the character of her fiancé than with a ring and vice versa with the man.

So why am I this way? If you agree, why are you this way? Is it because we were just born that way? Because we’re not into jewelry much at all? Because we’re “religious” and tend not to care as much about worldy goodies? Because we think anything that is that expensive is a waste of money?

I’ve felt this way about engagement rings for as long as I can remember, even through my own engagement years ago (with no ring at my request).

Where Can I Find: Black Dresses and Black Loungewear for Ladies

by @ 1:30 pm. Filed under Where Can I Find…?

Do you have a need for black casual dresses or black loungewear (house dresses, dusters, loungers, caftans, muu muus) to wear in the home ? Someone else did too and this is what I found for her.

This one comes in a black & white pattern.

All of the links below go to The Vermont Country Store. My site’s visitors LOVE this store, but they no longer have an affiliate program, so I cannot get pics for you. Click through though to see these very nice pieces. They are all either solid black or black/white. Lots of the dresses that I have not linked to come in black or black/white too, so look around their site if want to see more options.

At the Beach, Poolside, or Out and About: Pretty Crinkle Cotton Beaded Dress Is More than a Cover-Up (very cute-wish I could show a picture)

Morocco-Inspired Caftan in Warm, Cozy Fleece (also very cute)

Modest, Long-Sleeved Travel Dress: Four-Season Comfort, Day and Night Style (this would work as a modest tunic as well if you don’t want your legs showing)

And this world’s life is naught but a play and an idle sport and certainly the abode of the hereafter is better for those who guard (against evil); do you not then understand?
