This past Saturday, my youngest son and I went to a drag brunch. The night before we were texting back and forth about about the brunch because, of course, my biggest concern was what I was going to wear!! I had never been to this bar (no surprise there as I don’t drink). So, I …
A little history When I graduated from college, finding a teaching position was darn near impossible. I remember attending a senior “symposium” (aka senior meeting) letting us know only about ten percent of us would actually end up being an employed teacher. Funny how they waited until that very last semester. There were several people …
Trying a cute title… Laura, at I Do deClaire, always has cute titles for her blog posts. I have to admit she catches my attention which makes me click right through to read her post! Part of that is I have to figure out what her title has to do with the post! If you’re …
That secret group… Many years ago, I was discussing a dress I had with my friends in a secret group I’m in on Facebook (read more here). Made from a gorgeous shade of lavender with a gold pattern, this dress featured a V neck, long loose sleeves, and was extremely loose and flowing. One of …

The perfect dress… I am a sucker for a dress. There I said it! And, I’m an even bigger sucker for a dress that really needs no further accessorizing! You know, a one and done! This sleeveless dress from J Jill (currently on sale) features elaborate embroidery and beading. There is really no need to …
Maybe not the best way to wear statement sleeves… OK, in my head, this was a really cute look, right? I thought the floral print of the skirt with the sage green of the top would create a nice botanical-themed outfit. And, those statement sleeves would carry the show! Boy, was I wrong! Isn’t it …
You need some… Do you have golden friends? I am talking about those people in your lives who love you no matter what, can finish your sentences, laugh at the same goofy things, basically, your husband/wife/significant other in friend form! I have been blessed with lots of friends in my life. But, they have come …
