I have heard tell that neon’s are back in vogue. I remember the neon’s of my youth. I grew up in the 80’s, and neons were all the rage. I remember I made a blazer with a ton of neon colors when I was in 7th grade. I wore it all the time and basically […]

Just a touch…not much, but just a touch. I love it when you can find a piece of clothing that you know you will wear a ton. This shirt is one of them. It has a pleather yoke and sleeves, with an exposed zipper in the back. I got it at JC Penny last week, […]
I love wearing things that have a romantic twist to it. I think this sweater is something that goes along those lines. It was a consignment store find and it was love at first sight! It is a great Fall and Spring sweater as it has holes in the knitting. It isn’t too warm or […]

Holiday wear…a.k.a. princess dress version #501
By Stacy on October 11, 2012This week for Project Run and Play we have Holiday Wear. I kinda missed the fact that it was supposed to be FALL holiday wear, but she can wear this to Thanksgiving just fine. I made the kids some Halloween outfits a few years back if you want to see some Fall holiday wear. Oh, […]

Running around casual wear and some body musings
By Stacy on October 10, 2012A rare share of my weekend clothes. I got up early on Saturday morning, got in my workout, dyed my hair, fed the kids and then we were OFF! I have been trying to switch my workouts to be in the morning. Not only do I dislike working out…I dislike getting up early at […]
The tops here are from my recent foray into purchasing clothes at a retail store. In looking back over the last year or so…I have rarely purchased clothes for myself. Let’s not talk about fabric, though…that is whole ‘nother story! I can’t fit it all into the shelves in my fabric room. It was fun […]
Well, here is a new sweater that I acquired in my getting-ready-for-winter shopping. I can wear a fitted long-sleeved shirt underneath it when the weather turns colder. I actually paid full retail for it, which is something I try not to do. As we are at the beginning of sweater shopping season, I couldn’t find […]
The day before I wore this outfit I had checked the weather and it was supposed to be in the 60’s. Well, it was in the 70’s, so it was a bit too warm for the weather. Oh well, I just took off the scarf at noon to account for the fact that I was […]

Fall colors
By Stacy on October 4, 2012Well, this week on Project Run and Play, it is boy’s week. I was already planning on making a s.w.a.p. for the Boy, so it fell in nicely. There is sure to be some “boy suits” sewn for this challenge, but usually I try to make clothes that he will actually wear all the time. […]
In CAbi’s new fall line they had gauchos. Really? Aren’t gauchos about 10 years ago? They aren’t coming back are they? I feel almost the same way about these capris. Not sure if they are still “in” anymore. Being that I am not in a fashion mecca, I seem to be out of the know […]
