Red and gray

By on November 2, 2012

Well, it was a Tuesday and I was tired…so I decided to brighten up my day with a bit of red. Being tired has been pretty much par for the course lately.  I’ve been feeling a bit down, and that is not helping.  Nothing like being on the edge of tears all the time because […]

A spooky day

By on October 31, 2012

This was my outfit for Halloween.  I don’t really have any orange in my closet.  I held off buying a pair of orange booties that were on sale at Target the day before.  They were around $20 and the only time I could feasibly see them being worn was on Halloween.  No wonder there were so […]

A favorite dress

By on October 22, 2012

On my lunch hours I like to run all my errands.  I am lucky to have shopping available close by, which includes a mall and a fabric store. The ladies in the fabric store all say “Hi!” to me when I walk in.  Yep, they know me! I wore this on one of those errands […]

Ah, those Fall leaves

By on October 19, 2012

A few weeks ago we drove back to my home state for some pumpkin picking at at neighborhood party.  I love going back there, since I grew up with some great people.  It is wonderful to be able to see them again.  The drive was so pretty, too.  The leaves were turning colors and are […]

Neon hues

By on October 17, 2012

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 […]

A little edge

By on October 15, 2012

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, […]

Romantics

By on October 12, 2012

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 […]

Running around casual wear and some body musings

By on October 10, 2012

A 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 […]

Into the grays

By on October 9, 2012

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 […]

New stuff

By on October 7, 2012

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 […]
