I am trying to get some depth into my closet and use pieces that I don’t normally wear. I really like how the pop of turqoise works with the brown colors. White top – Express Skirt – CAbi Vest – Charlotte Russe Earrings and necklace – JC Penny Shoes – Nine West Hair – Au […]

Another skirt that I made. Same style..repeat, repeat. The nice thing about having a pattern that you like, is that it only costs a few bucks to make another! Shirt — Many years ago…maybe JC Penny Skirt – Made by Me Necklace – Von Maur, Earrings – Lia Sophia Shoes – Carlos Santa Hair – […]
We went out to the Seattle area on a family trip a month ago, so I have been slowly trying to get back into the groove. That two hour time difference seems to affect us more on the way back than the way there. It has been a bit hard to get up in the morning, […]
Even though Anya really doesn’t need more skorts and tops, I decided to make her a few more. She wore this first one right away on a very hot day at the horse races. I made it for summer wear, but the black was not helping her out in staying cool. The skort is a pretty […]
Finally Friday, and casual day at the office. This means jeans for me. Even though it is going to be around 90 degrees outside, in my office it will be in the low 70’s with an air-conditioning unit blowing on me all day. Therefore, I shall freeze! These jeans are pre-kids, pre-pregnancy jeans. I always […]
About 6 years ago I was introduced to the CAbi line of clothing through a home sale at a neighbor’s house. I was impressed with the quality of the clothes, in addition to the fact that the pants were long enough for me. This is rare, let me tell you. I am 5′ 7″ and […]
It’s been awhile since I have drank a Black and Tan, but at least I can do a homage to my Irish by wearing the colors. Not really. I just like how the colors (neutrals?) go together. Rather business-like this one…except for the shiny shoes. Shiny *plastic* shoes from Charlotte Russe. They hurt my feet, […]
I am speaking of the weather, of course. It has been in the 90’s for the past week or so with a few more 90’s yet to go, and lots of humidity. Not used to that here. On the 4th of July we sat at a baseball field from 11:30 to 1pm in the heat […]
Sometimes a bright pop of color is needed…especially on Mondays! It was a nice relaxing weekend, but Monday always comes so abruptly. At least the weekend cooled down, somewhat, and we could enjoy some time outside on the deck, having dinner with friends. Now, it’s back to the grind! Skirt and top – Made by […]
I tried to copy this hairstyle that I saw on a blog yesterday. Such a cute hairstyle! I didn’t straighten my hair to do it, nor use any product in it. I don’t like using hairspray, and it takes forever to straighten my hair. I would have been really late for work, instead of just […]
