Fashion Trends for Summer

June 10, 2016 By Meegan Leave a Comment

I am always looking forward to the Fashion Trends for Summer.

Like I have told you before I like fashion, trends and style, even though I am in my mid-fifties. I think it sis fun to add a little pizzazz to my wardrobe without trying to look like I am in my 20s or even 30s.

This week Cents of Style is doing just that with their American Dreamer Summer Tee.

This week Cents of Style is doing just that with their American Dreamer Summer Tee.

Fashion Trends for Summer include simple and relaxed style. I like printed tees because they look great with jeans, capris, leggings and even skirts.

I particularly like this specific tee because, not only can you wear it for the 4th of July, BUT it tells a story. It tells of women that work hard for themselves, their family and service to others.

My American Dreamer story is that started when I was a young girl. More than anything I wanted to be a teacher, wife, mom, wedding coordinator and mid-wife.

I was able to achieve all those dreams. Let me tell you how…

Fortunately I found the love of my life at a young age. We married and are still married for almost 39 years. Not long after that, I became a mom. I soon realized how important it was to stay home and raise my children to become responsible adults.

In that sense I became a teacher and a momma. I enjoyed raising a family. In my heart of hearts I wanted to become a mid-wife. I had 5 of our children at home and wanted to be able to give other women the chance for that same wonderful experience. BUT, my body had other ideas. I started to have seizures (epilepsy) after our 6th baby was born.  I knew those dreams of becoming a mid-wife were done.

BUT, my mid-wives trained me, took me on births and I had the opportunity to deliver a baby on my own, before the mid-wives arrived. I even helped deliver a baby in a van on the way to the hospital. YES, you read that right. The baby was born in a van. Now, that was an experience!

All in-between of raising a family, and helping the mid-wives, I also decorated for weddings. I learned how to create a beautiful venue with continuity. I also learned how to make bouquets, garlands, and give a bride the wedding of her dreams. Bringing my children along would teach them work ethic, a sense of creativity and time management.

In that way I fulfilled my American Dreamer ideals and wishes. As I look back at my dreams and wishes-I am able to continue to create and make those dreams come true.

What’s YOUR American Dreamer story? I would love to hear all about it.
