House Update!
It’s been a while since I announced on here that we were putting our house up for sale and gave you a look inside. You must be a little curious about how all that is going, right? If you’re not then, I’ve severely misjudged my importance, and I might need to reassess my mission in…

Chop Chop from long to lob
I mentioned in a post last week that I’d had my hair cut and showed off some pics. I mentioned then that there was more to say about all that. Some of you had concerns about if this was brought on by a big life change or something of that ilk. Sorry to freak you…

How to wear a denim vest might be a little extreme, but like most things around here, it was inspired by the interwebs. Arlene mentioned she was wondering today how and when to wear a denim vest, and I said, short version, with everything! It has to be the most versatile piece in a wardrobe.…

Why I blog about plus-size fashion.
Last week I was asked (not for the first time mind you) why I started to blog about plus size fashion. Why when my blog was already a few years old did I decide to blog about my personal style and fashion choices? Why change a somewhat winning formula? And being a blogger, if more…

Market Stall Sunday
On weekends, I get the chance to really dig into my wardrobe and wear what I like. Monday through Thursday I adhere to a moderate dress code but come Friday it is a Suger style free for all. Well, as free for all I get with my laid back casual style. There isn’t any busting…
