“Love at First Sight” Oh, Gurlz! This was a tough one! Welcome to the last Monday in February and another edition of Songful Style. Suzy and Shelbee decided to riff (see what I did there) on Style Imitating Art only with music! Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge, Suzy of The Grey Brunette, Michelle of Funky Fashion Style, …
Memories… Once upon a time, I remember thinking I would have made “it” when I owned a pair of green shoes! Isn’t that a weird thing to think? You’re probably wondering where in the world I came up with this idea! As always, there’s a story. Many, many years ago, we were in church waiting …
Style… Style is defined as “a particular kind, sort, or type, as with reference to form, appearance, or character (source).” Now, that is about as open ended as you can get, right? Is it any wonder we sometimes struggle with developing a sense of style? I have been grappling with this idea for a while …
Shopping my closet… This past month was a true anomaly for me. I bought only two things, and I’m returning one of them! One of the reasons is I have plenty of clothes. I’ve decided to try to create new outfits with the individual items rather than just repeating what I wore before. Shopping lately… …
Raise your hand if you knew today was Pay a Compliment Day! Bonus points if you didn’t google it like I did! How are you at receiving compliments? I am not very good at it. My first inclination is to just brush it off. My second is to think, “Why did I do that?” Why …

Part deux… No reinventing the wheel here… On Tuesday, I showed this sweater with a red leopard cardigan and black tights. You can read about it here. Go ahead; I’ll wait! I really liked the way that came together. I was so surprised when the reds matched almost perfectly! Today, I’m going with the easy …
In April, Michelle (Funky Fashion Style) began a new fashion challenge. Michelle felt she needed something to push her to do some print mixing. And, so the Final Friday challenge was born! This means the last Friday of the month would be dedicated to a print mixing challenge. Luckily, she asked me to co-host with …
I’m not sure about where you live, but here, in the Midwest, winter seems to have descended upon us! We really had a mild fall, and even though the calendar says we’re still in fall, we’ve had snow on several days now. Last week, it was even measurable! Today is the third Thursday of November …
“Look What You Made Me Do” I cannot believe today is Halloween! That means my favorite month of the year is just about over. Le sigh! And, of course, because it is my favorite month, it absolutely screamed out of the gate and dashed for the finish line! Today is also the last Monday of …
