Firefly lingo – Shiny=Good I finally got a chance to sew this weekend, since it was so flippin hot and humid outside that I sequestered myself in the cool basement. This fabric has been sitting around for a few years, so I decided to make a skirt out of it. At first I thought I […]
Month: July 2011
When taking family pictures, the clothing that everyone wears is pretty important. It can add or detract from the photos. I think the best pictures are the ones that show the styles of the period in a good way. This is why I generally choose to have all our family pictures printed in toned black […]
This skirt is the same skirt pattern that I made on the skirt I wore on Monday and Tuesday this week. This one I added a kick flounce to the back, though. Can you tell it is my favorite skirt? I love it when I find something that is flattering and comfy and EASY for […]
Our summer seems to be a bit bi-polar. Some days it is cool, then other days it is hot and humid. This was a cool day, but I was trying to pretend it was a warm summer day. Then, I went into my office and turned on my heater. This skirt is a bit hard […]
Well, I am nothing if not consistent with where I buy my clothes. In putting together these outfit posts, that has definitely shown me that I need to branch out a bit! Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of time to shop. I don’t generally like buying online since I can’t tell the fit. My […]
I don’t know about you, but jewelry parties seem to be the way suburban mom’s get together. That or a plethora of other parties (Norwax, Pampered Chef, CAbi, etc.). It seems like I will get invited to a ton of parties all at once, and expensive costume jewelry is not what I generally like to […]

Guess what his daddy likes to do
By Stacy onHey, look…I sewed! This little blanket is for Brian’s cousin’s little boy. I hope he will grow to like hunting. It is bound to happen with how avid his daddy is about it. Camo minky, plaid flannel and cream store bought satin bias binding Then I also got a skirt sewed up for me. One of my regular-no-thinking-about-it […]
Summertime is hard to dress for office wear. Outside it is in the 80’s or 90’s and inside they have the A/C blowing on you and it is in the 70’s…if you are lucky. I have a heater in my office that I use often. I think I need to have a stash of pashmina shawls […]
I was soooo tired this morning. It was a long week, and I was so glad to see Friday. We had some friends over for dinner the night before and I was up late cleaning everything afterwards. The next morning I just picked out something quick and easy to wear. Thus, not quite imaginative, but […]
We had our rock concert the night before, and like most of them…it was during the week. This ends up meaning that the night is late and trying to get up and get ready in the morning is hard. I only switched outfits once before settling on this one. It had to match the updo. […]
