  • Style Idea: Pre-Stack Your Stacks

    I got to chatting with a lovely lady in a store the other day and she was complimenting my "neck stack" as she called it.  She worked in a nice clothing store and said the store owner encouraged her to stack a few more necklaces on with the one she wore every day for sentimental reasons.  She wanted to do it -their store was full of fun ones - but didn't know "how" to do it.  It got me thinking...

  • Yes to Rompers in your 50s - First of all, Must We Call Them "Rompers"

    I love the romper trend and I am not about to let my age cause me to sit this one out. I don't think I've seen this trend in my lifetime - at least over the age of 3.  So, I need to figure out how to make this work now.  Enter...

  • Four Fun, Fall, 0n-Trend Swaps for Jeans

    This gorgeous cape is what style dreams are made of.  If I were to spend $3K on one outfit, I believe this would be it.  This cape would 100% be worn every year until I no longer walk the earth.  I am sure of it.

  • The Brown Lip Situation

    I am always on the hunt for two things:

    1. The perfect white tee and 

    2. The perfect brown lipstick.  

    I have never found the perfect white tee so that search continues, but I did find the perfect brown lipstick years ago.

  • I Still Love "Scrolling" Magazines

    I accidentally fooled a few people with this picture.  I am not in this magazine.  I snapped a picture of this cover-up that I made and a few minutes later was flipping through...

  • Made it Monday - Browns + Oranges

    Happy Monday!  More accurately, "Made it Monday" over here.  Every year about this time, I'm drawn to browns and oranges and my fabric choices are evidence of that, too.  These two prints never get old for me.  I made the robe and the wrap skirt several years ago and still...

  • Extending My Summer Wardrobe into Fall by Shopping My Closet

    It's that season of early fall with those cool mornings and warm afternoons.  All around us are the colors or fall - in the home decor aisles, the fashion magazines, social media. Every part of us wants to dress for fall, but it's not quite time to pull out those sweaters.  

    I found a solution that's working great for me and even extending my summer wardrobe.

    It's Fall, but... in the South. Still 86 degrees today… so… what to wear, what to wear. Here are 5 ideas that I'm quite certain are already in your closet.

  • Facing the Day in my Favorite Beauty Finds
