Happy weekend guys!
Yes, another pair of printed jeans….it’s my “thing” at the moment. Please indulge me until I get it out of my system. 😉
I’m linking up with Patti for Visible Monday!

Meet my grandkids!

Maya – my son’s rescue dog. Isn’t she beautiful?

Hunter – my daughter’s rescue dog. He misses grandpa!
TOP TEN DOG MYTHS
1. Tail wagging is always a sign of a happy dog
Dogs wag their tails to express happiness, but also to show excitement, stress, or even aggression. Pay attention to the overall body language of a dog to fully understand the intent behind a wagging tail.
2. A warm or dry nose means a sick dog
Regular fluctuations in the temperature and moisture of a dog’s nose are normal. Canine distemper used to be a prevalent virus which caused a thickening of the nose and footpads. A cold, wet nose indicated the dog didn’t have distemper. Today distemper is uncommon due to vaccinations.
3. Eating Grass = A Sick Dog or an Upset Stomach
It’s believed that grass is a normal part of a dog’s ancestral diet. Many dogs eat grass because it tastes good, or because they crave certain nutrients missing from their food. While some dogs vomit after eating too much grass, this is generally a side effect, not an intended result on the part of the dog. If your dog regularly eats too much grass and vomits, you should probably discourage eating grass and look for ways to enhance their diet.
4. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks
You’ve heard it said a million times. But while this might be true for humans, it’s definitely not for dogs! Fifteen minutes a day is usually enough to teach the most stubborn dog to sit, stay and a few other fun tricks.
5. An itchy dog is always a sign of fleas
Allergies are the most common cause of itching and licking, and there are other skin irritants and diseases which need to be ruled out as well when tracking the source of the itch.
6. Giving supplements to dogs is a painful & difficult process
Not true! Many supplements come in powders, tasty chewables, or even treats – and pill pockets can work wonders.
7. Dogs licking their wounds speeds up healing
Licking a wound too much actually slows down the healing process. Speed up the healing process and ease irritation with all natural herbal ointments.
8. MYTH: Dogs get stiff when they get old (FACT: They get old when they get stiff!)
Just like humans, you’re not old till you feel old! Keep your dog playing like a puppy with joint health support.
9. Changing foods is bad for your dog’s digestion
Would you want to eat dry cereal 3x/day every day? And changing up foods means overall better nutrition too, as long as it’s healthy, high-quality foods.
10. Weekly baths are best for a dog’s skin & coat
Washing too frequently can actually irritate a dog’s sensitive skin. If your dog loves dirt and mud and frequent bathing is a must, be sure to use gentle shampoos formulated to protect his or her sensitive skin & coat.

Jeanie, you look great, as always! And those adorable doggies—how wonderful that your son and daughter rescued them!
Thanks Marie!
I’m glad they rescued them, too! They’re also teaching my kids responsibility…to care for something other than just themselves. It’s a GOOD thing! 🙂
The printed jeans look so great on you that you can continue to wear them as frequently as possible as far as I’m concerned. And you do have beautiful grandbabies!
Thank you, Judith!
I DO have beautiful grandbabies! 😉
I’m envious of you wearing those pants. They are gorgeous…but not quite as gorgeous as your grand-kids. I want to give them big hugs!
Cheers,
Tammy
Walking in Pretty Shoes
Thanks Tammy!
I’ll give them big hugs next time I see them!
I like the printed jeans. May have to get me some.
Hi there!
They’re fun alternatives to jeans….now, go get you a pair or two! 😀
Those are great pants. I love printed pants and especially skinnies. I really love your grandkids they are adorable.
Thank you, Carrie! 🙂
You are one cool lady. Go on with your bad self and these printed pants. I’m enjoying the ride!
x Laura
Haha Thanks Laura!
The ride might get rough….some are “NOT age appropriate!” 😉
You are such an inspiration, beautiful, chic and fashionable. I love these jeans!
Interesting dog tips. I think I’m going to buy my dogs some new food, that one about eating the same cereal three times a day made me feel bad for them!
Thanks Alison!
I totally got that one, too! I was under the impression you weren’t suppose to switch food, that it would upset their system. Can you imagine eating the same food day after day?
Killer jeans, rocking outfit, adorable pooches! xxx
Thank you! Thank you!
amazing Jeannie! Is it me or you seem to be getting younger?! bravo!
Haha, I wish!! 😀
Thanks V!
You look fabulous! How I envy your petite figure. Looooove the jacket…and thanks for the doggie info!
Cindy at Notes in the Key of Life
Thank you, Cindy!
You’re so welcome! 🙂
Great pants! I love how you added the splash of lime.
Cute, cute pups! The polo shirt…so darling!
Adrienne @ The Rich Life (on a budget)
Thank you, Adrienne!
Aren’t they cute? I’m so proud of my grandkids! 🙂
The printed pants are so much fun….but the jacket is my fave!
Thanks Becky!
One of my favorite, too! Versatile & classic with a twist of edgyness. Is that a word? 😉
it is now!
haha!
Hi Jeannie,
I think you are cheating about your age. You are in your thirties and you don’t want to tell…. You look phenomenal as always!
About dogs: any point (reality or myth) about dogs who sleep in bed with their owners? And I meant IN bed and not ON bed…
Our lab is interested to know and so am I. Thanks for the answer.. about dogs… not about your age (I definitely know you are at least twenty years younger than what you pretend…)
xoxo,
Anne
Oh, Anne! How I wish!!
Being 30 seems so so long ago….oh gosh, it’s been over 20 years! That’s scary!
I appreciate your wonderful comment! Thank you so much! ❤
As for dogs sleeping IN your bed? Not a darn thing wrong with that!!
I can't sleep without mine next to me! 😉
i am absolutely drooling over that jacket!!!!
brett
Thanks Brett!
Leave it to Ann Taylor…love their stuff! 😀
Love this look and how you made them stand out so effortlessly! Another WOWZA moment! xoxo
Thank you, Miranda!
I hope you know how fabulous I think you are! In faith & fashion!! 🙂
Wow thank you! That’s gotta be one of the best compliments received this year ;p
You look totally fabulous in the printed jeans. Your whole outfit is perfect!
Thank you so much, Debbie!
It’s good to hear from you! 🙂
Hey there!
your jacket is stunning!!! love the outfit
and the dogs, oh! so cute!!!
xoxo

Thank you, Ingrid!
Very versatile jacket….comfy, too!
I haven’t met a dog I didn’t like. They are truly man’s/woman’s best friend! 😀
your pants are beautiful and you look amahzing as ever!
maya and hunter put a great smile in my face, they are so darling!
lieben gruß von sabine
Thank you, Sabine!
Yes, my grand fur-babies make me smile, too! They’re so wonderful…what’s not to love???
someone else with grandchildren that wear flea-collars (we have a grandchihuahua)!!!! How cute are they!!! I also buy dresses for Noelle (I brought matching dresses for Noelle and our Diva KaeKae-she was NOT impressed at all)
I’m with you with waiting for the human grandbabies-if I’m this goofy over a DOG?????
Haha…me, too!
At least your daughter is married! Both of my kids are SO NOT ready! That could be my fault b/c 1. Told son that he’d better be able to support a wife if he wants to get married. 2. Told daughter that she’d better be able to take care of herself before she gets married. How’s that for a double standard? 😉
First of all – look at you! Looking amazing. i think you are lying about your age – you are 18, right???? I KNEW IT!
Second of all – it’s a shame that these myth busters aren’t known even more widely! A lot of people really believe them – I saw a pooch once, clearly in pain, and a family saying, oh look it’s wagging its tail, therefore it’s happy.
It was very sad 😦
First, I AM 18! IN my dreams! 😀 You, my dear Edita, is about the sweetest thing ever! Thanks for making my day!
Second, that’s such an awful story about the dog! How do you not know if your dog is in pain?
Some people just don’t care, Jeannie.
Perhaps in your dreams you are 18, but I assure you, you also are in your appearance! Do you do any particular sports, is it because of your genes? Because honest, you look tremendously amazing!
Looking very trendy and fabulous Jeannie! Love the pop of colour with the black and white
Thank you, Sylvia!
I’m not always on board with all the trends, but I do love printed/colored jeans. A great alternative to blue jeans when you need a little pick me up! 😀
those jeans look terrific on you! on me? i’d look like a sofa! but you rock it, girl! love the pics of the grandkids, too!
Haha, no way you’d look like a sofa! Remember, I saw that Halloween photo of you! 😉
Popping by from Visible Monday. Adore your jeans!
Thanks for your visit, Erica! 🙂
Pretty outfit and pretty setting. I like how Maya is color coordinated to match your clothes. She is just the cutest little thing…I can see how easy it was to fall in love with her!
Hi Elisa!
Are you enjoying the colors? It’s so gorgeous here in the mountains!
Maya is a sweetie! Son & Maya came up for a visit past weekend. Spent Saturday at an Arts Festival nearby, had lunch outside with our dogs…it was wonderful! I wish I had your talent for photography b/c there were many “moments” I wish I could have captured.
Jeannie, not everyone can wear printed jeans so go for it! They look amazing on you. And those rescue dogs… tis the season! I am going to pick up my retired Greyhound on Thursday. She is a red brindle color so her coloring is like Hunter’s! 🙂
Oh, how wonderful about your Greyhound! I hope she and Winston will become fast friends! 🙂
I LOVE !!! how you’ve styled “our” pants!! The colors and the jacket/shoes/bag are absolutely perfect. I don’t think I’d ever take that jacket off. I wish my pants were a little more jeans-like; I’d probably wear them more often. ENJOY!!!!
I told you I had one like yours! Great minds!
Thank you! I grabbed this jacket from Ann Taylor last year on sale, and it’s been a work horse since then. I love pieces that are relevant year after year.
Have a great week!
I love that Ann Taylor jacket!! You look awesome as always and I will now keep thinking about that jacket the rest of the day! Have a great week ahead.
Thank you, Pam!
It’s perfect for the October weather we’re having. Happy week to you as well!
I’m so jealous of your printed jean collection! I’m still on the prowl for the perfect fall/winter version. I find the printed ones tend to have a lower rise, which is difficult on my figure. Sigh. Love your black and white ones!
Thanks Heather!
I have been on the printed jeans band wagon for awhile now. Can’t wait for you to find a perfect pair b/c you’ll definitely rock them! 🙂
Black, yellow and the right amount of print…I like it! It seems like black together with yellow is going to be very hot this winter
Thank you, Sara!
I’ve seen black/yellow combo as well and really loving it!
OMG Mama J! You are really rocking this look!! Better than any 20yo’er, seriously!
As I always believe, wine just gets better as they age 😀 😀 😀
Hunter is looking so adorable with that expression and thought of him missing grandpa – melts the heart!
And Maya looks just like my Storm!! Very sweet!
Haha! You’re too sweet!
Better with age? That what I used to say to old people when I was young. 😀
I love my grand fur-kids! I think I’ll be an awesome grandma when my kids ever decide to get married and start a family!
Can’t wait to receive your goodies!
I loved this post.. you know I’m a dog-lover Jeannie and I adore these photos!
Thanks Leslie!
Yes, I adore your fur-kids!! 🙂
Love this outfit on you! I love the printed pants but I am not brave enough to go past polka dots jeans. My husband asked me last night if I was wearing my pajamas when I wore my burgundy with pink polka dot jeans.

Haha, what does your hubby know?
Sounds like something my hubs would say. 😉
If an old fogy like me can wear printed jeans, SO CAN YOU!
I’m loving printed jeans! Just gorgeous with that awesome bag.
Thank you!
You may not love it so much after I post a few more of my printed jeans! I’m obsessed….
Hahaha. Well, try me–post away!
Love the printed jeans, and the coat, and the shoes, and the watch, and the everything. 🙂 And the grandbabies, what can I say. Stunningly stunning, cutie patooties!
Haha, thank you Amanda!
Now, if I only had your talent for making people laugh…. 😀
I LOVE those jeans. And your Grandbabies. (I have 2 rescues of my own and volunteer with a local shelter, so dogs are my passion!)
Thanks Rebecca!
Oh, you’re my kinda gal! It’s wonderful that you volunteer at your local shelter. A big thank you from another dog lover!
I just posted today about jumping on the printed pants (jeans) band wagon. I love these on you! Tres chic. And thank you for the dog myths. I wonder if there is an herbal ointment I could put on Rockefeller’s wound as it heals???
Thanks Heather!
I love your pants! Great color combo & pattern. Yay for printed jeans/pants!!!
I hope Rockefeller is healing and doing well!
Jeannie, the whole outfit is beautiful, but this bag is great, very nice. You may not see it that way, but it is of my taste, my style. Lately much combine the elegant outfits with very youthful outfits. You’re a woman unorthodox, that’s great. I love the pants and jacket. As always, I love dressed in the shirt style of Jeannie.
Thank you, Josep! Very sweet and thoughtful!
I’m glad you like my style! 🙂
You look great in printed jeans. In my spare time I rescue dogs. Its better to adopt and give a second chance to a dog =)
That’s so wonderful!
When I visited our local shelter, I wanted to adopt all of them! Yes, they need second chances…just like we do. 🙂
You had me at rescue dog. All of our babies are rescues and I wouldn’t have it any other way. BTW…….indulge away, the printed jeans are adorable!
Paula
stylist & animal rescuer
Thank you, Paula!
I’m afraid you will be seeing more printed jeans from me….I’ve been wearing them instead of my regular jeans lately and loving them. Hopefully, this obsession will end soon?! 😉
Wow, you look great in those printed pants. I wouldn’t dare put on a pair until I get the last 50 lbs off!!! Black in the only color I put on this body from the waist down!!! Love the pics of the “grandkids,” too!!! (Bless them for getting “rescue” dogs!!!).
Sara,
I’m rooting for you! I have no doubt you’ll reach your goal! Go Sara, Go! 🙂
You look fabulous! Love the printed jeans and the Balenciaga bag.
Thank you!
When I get a little obsessed with a trend or a look, I over do it sometimes. There’ll be more printed jeans, I’m afraid.
Hope you’re having fun in Vegas!
You look great; I especially like your top. What sweet, sweet puppies!
Thanks Patricia!
Puppies are all I have right now….can’t wait to spoil real grandkids! 🙂
those grandbabies are dolls…i want a rescue dog! oscar is helping me type…….you look fab in printed jeans…….i have an out there personality and the look might be too much of me…..love the color combo. does nana shop for the grandbabies too?
Hi Judy!
Yes, this nana does shop for grandbabies! If I’m like this with fur-kids, just wait till I have REAL grandbabies!! Spoiling them rotten is what I’ll be doing! 🙂
