Overlooking a river valley

By on November 13, 2012

Once a year I like to get us all looking nice and go to a location to take a family picture.  I much prefer summertime, as I am not a cold weather lover. This was a few weeks back, and it was a wonderful warm autumn day in between several very cold days. It is […]

The morning after…

By on November 4, 2012

The night before we went out to a rock concert on a Tuesday night (Seether rocks! \m/ ).  This meant we got home at 1 am…on a school night. I was surprised I wasn’t more tired.  Us old folks need our sleep you know!  It was a fun night out, though.  It was a smallish […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

In which I prepare for winter

By on October 5, 2012

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 […]

Trouser capris…yea or nay?

By on October 2, 2012

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
