Have you ever… There are times I surprise even me! I was looking for a pair of sandals to wear with this dress when I stumbled upon these. I sometimes will buy something and forget about it for a minute or two. But, I have absolutely no recollection of buying these sandals! Needless to say, …
Spring trends for denim jackets… I’m hearing the spring trends for denim jackets this spring are for a softer silhouette. It’s less truck driver and more schoolmarm. OK, that may be stretching it, but I was trying to come up with some kind of dramatic comparison! Anyhoo, don’t give away your more tailored and traditional …
Style Imitating Art… Welcome to Style Imitating Art! Style Imitating Art comes from Salazar, Shelbee, and me. You can think of this series as fashion meets art museum! SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for that piece. How it works… …
Gifted and talented… All I want is a higher SEO! Gifted and Talented seemed like it would do the trick, but alas and alack! It does not. I am not gifted and talented. What I usually am is “dazed and confused.” To be honest (rather than lying to you), I’ve never seen that movie and …

Back then, it was Fashion …
Number #13 I know people say it all the time, but it seems like Christmas was just yesterday and yet forever ago. I honestly can’t believe January is almost over. It has been one cold month, and Nigel and I have spent most of it inside, keeping warm. You’ll be able to tell that from …
Two weeks ago, I linked up with Kym at A Fresh Cup of Coffee for her year long series of Twenty-Six Lists. She has come up with a list of 26 different lists. She also has a link party. They range from Goals and Accomplishments (seen here) to things like “Lucky Days,” “Music on Your Playlist,” and …
Surprise! A Monday post is unusual for me, but here we go! You can expect a post every Monday. Now, why is that, you’re asking, right? I’m joining Salazar and Shelbee as a co-host for Style Imitating Art. If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really …
Back in May, I debuted this dress from Gudrun Sjödén (available in neutral in limited sizes) on the blog for a Style Imitating Art challenge (here). I had seen ads for the brand before and really liked the aesthetic. Honestly, I didn’t think I could ever pull off the look. I decided to buy a …
