When Jodie mentioned this skirt in an email, I thought, “Why not try it?” Turns out, Mireille may have thought the same thing. So, today’s post is going to be a three-fer. I’ll provide links to both of their posts a little later. I’m always a sucker for a challenge in case you haven’t noticed! …
Week 129! It’s been a beautiful week here in Central Indiana with warm-ish temperatures during the day and cooler ones in the evening. We actually have snow in the forecast for Monday. I’m not getting too excited about that because Monday is several days away, and it will just be scattered flakes. Anyway, it’s time …

Style Imitating Art… Welcome to Style Imitating Art which comes from Salazar, Shelbee, and me. You can think of this series as fashion meets art museum!

There are some bloggers I follow that I’ve come to regard as friends in a sort of superficial, but not really, way. One of them is Lydia at Where the Wild Things Are. She wrote a post about kindness, and it really resonated with me. We are so often our own worst enemy. I think …
Style Imitating Art… Welcome to another edition of Style Imitating Art! If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really cool idea pairing fashion with art. Last year, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that art, and …
We have had frost the last few nights. I have an upright jumbo elephant ear in a large pot in front of the garage. I’m trying to decide exactly what I’m going to do with it. I think I’ll just wheel it into the garage and cover it with a sheet. I also have three …
Week 127! Would you believe we’ve not only had frost, but we’ve turned on the furnace? And, last week, we had temps in the 80s (26.7C)! Anyway, I’m pretty sure Fall is here to stay. I’ve gotten rid of several plants and am covering up others I need to figure out where they’ll spend the …
