Have Some Fun…Do A New Thing!

Have Some Fun…Do A New Thing!

The fashion industry is always bringing us new ideas which often require a step outside of our comfort zone to try!   I have seen several blogs for women of all ages showing the idea of wearing double bracelets or cuffs…the same styles…on both arms.  So, when I found these fun MOD GEO BRACELETS at FOREVER…

Button Up!  Then Meet Me By Video!

Button Up! Then Meet Me By Video!

I do agree, a great jacket can be one way to lose an instant ten pounds…at least look that way!  But, it seems most stylists will say to button the jacket for that more slimming look. But, I have always preferred to wear my jackets open rather than buttoned.  So, I am coming to you,…

Rainy Days and Fashion, Always Get Me …Stressed!

Rainy Days and Fashion, Always Get Me …Stressed!

I know we all have our times when it is really difficult to motivate ourselves to fix up and look our best.  My most difficult days are when it is raining. While I would like to stay home from work on rainy days, it just doesn’t go well with my boss! Now, I am not…

But Baby It’s Hot Outside! (Plus Hot Sale!)

This picture is an oxymoron!  Typically, I would not be pictured among my Christmas decor in a thin, summer poncho!  But, this is not a typical fall season in San Antonio! When it was time to dress for my date night to celebrate our anniversary, I was sweating from the humidity and temps in the…

Christmas!! Really???

I just cannot believe that Kohls is playing Christmas carols and Black Friday commercials are running…where did autumn go??

DIY Confidence!

DIY Confidence!

Most of us are familiar with Tim Gunn’s favorite phrase, Make It Work!  But, it helps me face challenges all of the time.  Whenever I find myself lamenting over a problem, I will hear that scholarly, kind voice in my head imploring me to MAKE IT WORK! This happened recently when I picked up the…

JUST AN AUTUMN KIND OF GIRL!

JUST AN AUTUMN KIND OF GIRL!

That’s right!  I am declaring  the season officially autumn, because it is my favorite season.  Though I live in South Texas (Sun City), I am every bit an autumn lady! I prefer the scents of pumpkin bread and apple pie to chicken on the grill and cold fruits. I prefer shorter days with dark evenings…

INSPIRATION: RED

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…
