INSPIRATION: RED

Everywhere I have turned lately, red is being proclaimed as a major part of Fall 2012 fashion!  So, when I saw this catalog from  CHICOS…. I thought, well I do not have the super fun Chicos pants, but I can come close.  That led to this inspiration outfit.  I’ve learned not to get depressed if…

Gilmore Girls…Bunheads…and Creative Style!

I’ve mentioned before that I am a huge fan of Gilmore Girls;  no show has better dialogue as far as I am concerned.  So, my husband was the one who told me about the new show on ABC’s Family Network called BUNHEADS.  The show is written Amy Sherman-Palladino of Gilmore Girls fame, and actually old…
