Hello everyone!  It was a lovely day today and we decided to take advantage of a good day with weather and my health. We of course brought the puppies out, and they actually know the word "car ride", so they get excited, and their ears perk up.The place we often frequent is called, Birkdale, but I renamed it, " Barkdale" as it is very dog friendly. The funny thing is the my pups, when taking a walk, actually make a b-line for the little boutiques, the hair salon, and wine bar, that we go to! I think my little girl thinks...

This is second in a series, displaying the lovely, distinct, and well-made readers, from readers.com. I chose this pair, the zebra,  called, The Dolly, for several reasons. First, again, I wanted a print and liked the shape. Again, the glasses are a part of the Make a Statement Collection, and also display the diversity of the frames. They too, have a cat-eye shape but more subtle. They are great to pair with nearly most outfits, but I wanted to do a bold color of the deep red with black, to show the black and white glasses. You could do a...

First of all I love the cat-eye look !The last time I was glasses shopping, I took a lot longer than my husband, as the salesman  kept saying, "He has THE PERFECT face for practically any frame here." He then found 2 pair for me, and I liked them but did not love. Well, it was quite a project finding a pair I like, as you can see I have a certain face shape that works with some frames and not others. Do not hand me those round little John Lennon glasses, or tell me...

 Today was sunny and we decided to head out by the lake for pictures. I noticed this tree, and thought it was a great place for pictures. The first thought, however, was not to just look at the tree and think of it as a good place for shots, but rather " boy, I would love to climb that! " I am more of a tomboy, or have been as my husband and I met at a rock climbing class when I lived in Pittsburgh, PA. I thought, "I better get to know this guy if he is going to...

Last night was a night where we tried a new wine bar, and I was finally able to wear my Magaschoni cashmere emerald sweater out! I purchased it last year at Bluefly, a favorite on-line shop, as the green emerald was calling out to me.( I am starting to notice a favorite phrase!)  I was told, by many people I encounter that all red heads should own green in their closet. I do think it compliments the hair and skin tone, but not every shade of green works. More brown-greens for instance, I feel, look ruddy. I am not a...

I could honestly say, my love for handbags, probably began about 10 years ago. I know it wasn't in high school or even college, and I am seeing a ton of 20 somethings wearing Celine bags or carrying Louis Vuitton. At that age, I would have probably been able to afford Louis Buitton. The only bag I remember carrying in high school was my "brown bag", not from Bloomingdales, either, literally a brown bag for lunch! I remember when I bought years ago a Kenneth Cole NY bag, I got at TJMaxx for $65 dollars, and I thought that was...

My cafe colored  sweater dress was begging to be worn, and so I decided to pair it with different shades of brown. This cashmere sweater dress is so soft and yet it needs something to add to its taupe-ish color. This relatively new leather jacket, by Andrew Marc seemed to add more intensity to the color scheme, as did the boots.I have always been a fan of Andrew Marc's leather jackets, and I just loved this color. Bluefly.com has some great leather jackets, when you are looking for one I have a combination of gold and silver jewelry, but these...

Teal has to be a favorite color of mine. I bought this velvet jacket, when I was really into velvet, and no it was not the mid 70s. Since I like most of my jackets fitted, I decided to wear this over my grey sweater dress. Putting on this entire outfit is about as comfortable as pajamas as one can get. I dressed it up with some bold gold and teal statement jewelry that actually called out to me from our local Jewel Box's window.( Perhaps this is becoming a recurring happening with me!) So, of course, I had to...
