Christine Kardashian Harem Pants {She Wore What}
Sponsored by Christine Kardashian. It wasn’t that long ago that an email dropped into my inbox from a budding fashion designer named Christine Kardashian. It caught my attention immediately, assuming that someone was errr, pulling my leg. It turned out no one was pulling anything. Christine is a PR queen turned fashion designer with her…

Just Like My Mother.
I feel like my mother more than ever as I sit at the kitchen table, books and folios spread out around me everywhere, calculator at my side. She had notebooks for recording, and I had spreadsheets. Not much else has changed. The tennis is on tv; the night is hot despite the lightness of a…

The Out-Takes Post! {She Wore What}
I am often complimented when I post outfit photos. I’m vain so I like the feedback. Feed me, feed me ego style, you know. But the reality of it is that most of the time I have at least 50 photos to pick the 7 or so for the blog. I do this three times…

It turns out that if I managed to put all that together and wear it someone in the current weather I would probably die. Never mind check your…

Confessions of a Converted Pinner

Green Monster Smoothie
My Dad is the king of healthy living. He still wear a size 29 waist and he turned 60 last year. Fit, would be an understatement. He is a long term advocate of all things preservative and sugar free. This holidays he got to reading Green for Life by Victoria Boutenko. I haven’t finished reading…

Chambray’s Night Out {She Wore What}
You’d be forgiven if this is your first time here for thinking that perhaps Chambray is my name. Or even a beloved friend or pet. But no, the chambray I am referring to is none other than my New Look chambray shirt. I like to keep things simple. Stripe pencil skirt’s name is stripe pencil…

The Skin I’m In
I asked for ideas last night. Ideas for things to write about and something to get me excited about writing it. I had scrapped a post and had nothing for today. I get a little itchy when things are left unfinished. Blank gaping holes that need to be filled. There were ideas about turtles, horses,…
