Teal and ruffles

By on September 30, 2012

Ah, more clothes coming out of their summer retirement.  I love this little french terry jacket.  The ruffles are the best part.  It works best when I have my hair up, but I have been lazy lately.  Mainly because I have been fighting a fall cold.  I hate those things! My hubby was out of […]

Snakeskin again

By on September 28, 2012

This was another outfit using my new skirt.  It was from several weeks ago when it was still warm.  No more bare-ish legs and arms for me!  It has definitely cooled down.  My challenge now is trying to keep up with the outfits when the weather turns cold.  I don’t like the inside pictures.  Not […]

A white dress

By on September 26, 2012

This week’s challenge for Project Run and Play was to use a white sheet.  I had one just sitting there, unused, in the linen closet a few months back, and decided to donate it. Of course! Unfortunately, I had to buy one for this challenge.  I got an ultra soft king sized cotton flat sheet […]

White after Labor Day

By on

This is a casual Friday outfit, and one that I couldn’t wait to wear.  I got these Lassen boots on sale in late summer (60% off, I think), and I just love them.  Lassen boots are like wearing slippers. Although I am working the white, it still seems Fall appropriate.  The weather man was warning […]

What time is your interview?

By on September 24, 2012

This is an outfit that could definitely garner that reaction.  I don’t work in a “suit office”, so wearing something like this is out of the ordinary.  I got this suit from CAbi’s new fall line.  I can definitely wear them as separates.  The jacket will look great with a pair of jeans and the […]

Why you will never see me with a bag/purse/clutch

By on September 22, 2012

I have a friend that has about a thousand purses in various different colors.  They are very pretty and, at times, I think about how I would love to have such a variety. Then I come down to earth again. I don’t have the time in the morning to switch out bags to coordinate with […]

Yep, it’s a Friday

By on September 21, 2012

This was my Friday outfit.  It is casual day at our office, so that means jeans.  Jeans are a little uncomfortable for sitting at a desk all day…so jean skirt with LYCRA! The night before I went out dancing with my girlfriends, which is always a fun time.  I love, love, love to dance.  I […]

Feeling Fallish

By on September 19, 2012

It is right around the corner, it seems.  Pretty soon the colors are going to be changing.  It definitely feels Fallish in our office.  I have been freezing!  I figured a nice pair of slacks would keep my legs warmer at least. Did you know that for a brief period of time that GAP actually […]

A fashion icon challenge

By on September 18, 2012

For week #2 of Project Run and Play, the challenge was to sew something inspired by a fashion icon.  I can only imagine how many entries will have something to do with Audrey Hepburn (a good choice for sure)! I was looking more for designers that inspire me, and no one inspires me more than […]

It was a black and white week

By on September 17, 2012

After making my little Diva’s black and white wardrobe, I felt the need to dress the same.  Unfortunately, I only got a photo of one of the outfits, though I wore several that week in that vein.  This wasn’t even the cutest one, and certainly didn’t photograph well.  It was much better and thinning in […]
