Casual dinner outfit for fall

wearing: gold hoops / sunglasses / chocolate brown sweater / chocolate brown suede belt / holiday nail polish / ring / wide leg jeans / black handbag / black loafers (use code CATHY15) /

The weather has been mild, which has been perfect for wearing a short sleeve sweater with jeans. I wore this fall outfit to enjoy dinner with my family at Tomato Thyme in the Willow Glen neighborhood of San Jose. It was so yummy!

I enjoyed their salmon entree which was served on a bed of linguini. It was so good! This was my first time visiting Tomato Thyme in San Jose, and I am so glad we went! I would definitely go back again. The menu has a lot of good choices, and I would love to try additional dishes. Yum!

So, if you are local, this is hidden gem, neighborhood restaurant with plenty of parking. A must try! It does get busy, so I recommend making reservations ahead of time.

These loafers are super comfy, and I love the metallic heel detail. They are a fun twist on a classic shoe. Love that!

Shinery jewelry cleaner review

pictured: Shinery Jewelry Wash c/o Shinery / pink jewelry cleaning cloths / jewelry, old /

So, I accidently stored my almost twenty-year-old Ippolita set in my jewelry box without their jewelry pouches. Of course, this helped them become incredibly tarnished. Since the silver around the stones is thin, it is very difficult to polish without the right tools. Thankfully Shinery reached out and sent me their jewelry wash. The timing was perfect!

I did my best to photograph the tarnished before and after of my jewelry. In the photo above, you can see the tarnished earrings. In the photo below, I had already cleaned the set and it was shiny again!

I was thrilled with how easy it was to bring my jewelry back to looking new! I used one cleaning cloth and put a small amount of Shinery Jewelry Wash on the cloth. Then, I rubbed the cloth with Shinery on the silver portions of the jewelry. The tarnish came right off and brightened the jewelry quickly. I was done cleaning the four pieces within about five minutes. It was so easy!

Now, I plan to clean my watch next! This is the easiest jewelry cleaning product I have ever tested. Love it!

Shinery Jewelry Wash is great to have in your cabinet for easy jewelry cleaning. It would also make a fabulous gift this holiday season for the jewelry fan on your list! Love that!
