A brand new party! Michelle, of My Bijou Life, recently decided to start a new fashion challenge. It seems link parties may be a thing of the past for some bloggers. Others, like me, find them a wonderful way to find new blogs, interests, and even friends! Just as the title says, we are hosting …
Pantone’s color of the year It’s the third Thursday of the month! The women of Ageless Style are back with Pantone’s color of the year, Very Peri.
