This outfit is one that I wasn’t sure about, but ended up rather liking. I thought it would be too much blue, but I think it works together. I made this top last year in the spring, and have only worn it a few times. I have a hard time matching it up with a […]

Here we are in a beautiful stretch of summer weather and I am still on my black and white kick. The day previously, I wore a black and white dress. The dress was the second choice of the day, though. I got in the car with my kids just in time for a thunderstorm to […]
