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 […]
Category: Stuff I made
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 […]
When I got up on this morning and looked outside it was really, really windy. The weather gods were blowing in a warm front, and there was a heat advisory that day. Even so…cold office. This outfit marries the two a bit. It is nice and comfortable, but can be made cooler by taking off […]
This morning was a nice Friday. I had slept with the windows open, which always gives me a good night’s sleep. The wonderful crisp air, while snuggled deep in your blankets…truly that is what Fall is all about. I got up from my well-rested sleep and dressed for our casual Friday’s at the office, which […]
I don’t normally post pictures of my kids on this blog, but since it is about style and fashion I thought I would this time. Plus I have a ton of pictures I need to go through for my outfits, and I just haven’t had the time or inclination to sit at my computer to […]
I am not one to usually wear scarves in the summertime. Perhaps I am a bit claustrophobic. I have a hard time wearing turtlenecks in the wintertime, too. This is a nice lightweight scarf, though. It was just a bit of a sheer fabric I found in a remnant bin at the fabric store. I […]
I have tried just about every type of crafting/creative endeavor. I love art and creating things. What I didn’t get a chance to do in school art classes, I have tried in my adult life. One of those was making jewelry with gemstones and beads. I’d love to learn how to make jewelry with metals and soldering tools. […]
This skirt is one of the first skirts I had made after years of not making much at all for myself. That was probably about 5 years ago, I think. It is a pretty simple skirt in stretch apparel weight fabric with an elastic waist. The shirt was a “sorta copy” of an item I […]
It’s been awhile since I have drank a Black and Tan, but at least I can do a homage to my Irish by wearing the colors. Not really. I just like how the colors (neutrals?) go together. Rather business-like this one…except for the shiny shoes. Shiny *plastic* shoes from Charlotte Russe. They hurt my feet, […]
I am speaking of the weather, of course. It has been in the 90’s for the past week or so with a few more 90’s yet to go, and lots of humidity. Not used to that here. On the 4th of July we sat at a baseball field from 11:30 to 1pm in the heat […]
