I do really like purple. I think between purple and blue are the two colors I could use more of in my closet. I love love love, lavendar, the color, the flowers, the smell of it as essential oil in my bath. Deep purple is also a favorite, the jewel tone that is so rich, it looks so lovely. So when I brought this dress out of my closet, I saw those colors, as well as fuschia, which is a color that is sprouting up in spring fashion as well. This isn't a wrap dress, a style of dress I...

  I have to admit, lace and  fur just make me feel glamorous. Add in just a touch of a pearl brooch, some antique jewelry, and a pair of brown brogues, and I feel as though I have stepped back in time I think I could have lived in another era. I like the 20's for the clothes, the music{ swing, big band, and jazz are my favorite kind of music, as anyone will tell you, I probably don't go a day without listening to Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman, Cab Calloway and others As far as...

Figuratively, not literally. B,B, King once sang, " Everyday I got the blues." Well, I can't say that for my wardrobe either.I need to incorporate more blue into my wardrobe. I have a lot of many other colors, but I am not sure why I haven't been drawn to it. I like mint, baby blue, maybe it is just finding the right blue hue! I took a stroll down our development, and we have so many beautiful crepe murtle trees, I really want one. So, I suppose, the next best thing, ( not really!) is looking like we have one...

Ok, Blush and cobalt seem to be the colors of the season. Ann Taylor, one of my favorite shops began their spring season with a lot of blush:skirts, tops, dresses, etc.I love it and am quite excited about it. I do think with blush, depending on your coloring, that you may want to add a stronger contrast, or a colorful scarf. I choose to wear black. I am a fan of peplum tops, if the waist hits me in the right place, and this one did. I love the colorblock of the black and blush, a light, feminine color against...

Hello ALL!I actually took down the picture of the one where I have my arms folded and and was very very cold when this was taken. I just kept going on with my familiar grin, just thinking in my head, as my hubby tries out various angles or views, " Hurry up now!" The weather I believe should change for the better, high 60s and up next week. I always felt the day OF spring, flowers should be blooming, and no matter how cold or windy it may have been, the sun would appear that day. Nevertheless, we went back...

   Sorry to disappoint, we are talking about hair here, not pastries!I realize that the actual manufacturing of these buns for your hair, probably is about 5 cents. However, they are priceless, when one wants to roll out of bed, and put your hair up in a nice classic bun , without much effort. It looks neat, and I dress it up by inserting a hair accessory either in the back to hold the bun more in place, or in the front, to show of some jewels, for example. I have purchased some from 1928, and others I found on Etsy,...

 If you saw my Monday post,  I talked about the rarity of the zebra, if you want to know why I did that, it is a long story, so you would be better of reading the post. I will tell you what is NOT rare here in North Charlotte, or Lake Norman, and that is access to Vineyards. There are about 75 vineyards we can get to, that are within a reasonable drive. We have 3 favorites currently, and went to one today. Childress Vineyards is beautiful: fountains with flowers, building that is stone and could be a small castle,...

 I know it is St Patrick's Day, I should have worn green, I am Irish, but I had something else in mind.Here is my little Love Gibson, who is wishing you a Happy St Patrick's Day with his Irish green shamrock bandana, and he has red hair too!  Hello all.  this where I give a little shout out ( or whatever sound zebras make), to my fellow Ehlers-Danlos compatriots. The zebra is the Mascot for EDS, and I do think illnesses can use Mascots, I think celebrities help get the word out more. Look at Michael J Fox and what...
