Welcome!


WELCOME!

I started this blog to help myself track my fashion evolution. I have gotten a lot of inspiration from other bloggers out there, and maybe someday I can do the same for someone else.

Spring Flowers

Last fall I actually remembered to plant spring bulbs.  It's the first time I have remembered to do that in the seven years we've lived here.  I was so excited when my daffodils finally showed their faces!


I liked the pop of bright turquoise in this otherwise neutral outfit, but the rolled sleeves were a bit obnoxious.  I think this was not the best shirt to try it with.

Bits of Pink

I bought this necklace because I liked it a lot, but it's been more of a challenge than I thought it would be to find outfits to wear it with.  This was an easy match.

I just found a bunch of old photos on my SD card.  I think they are from January, so I'm just going to post them all now so they don't drag out into spring clothing territory.

Ride the Dragon

This post title won't make any sense until you scroll down.  One of my neighbors has this cheesy dragon statue in their yard (or maybe it's the Loch Ness monster?  I don't know...)  I've been contemplating getting a photo with it for a while and finally worked up the nerve to do it.  I got some mighty strange looks from people driving by...

Onto the clothes! I liked the combination of the bright colors and different patterns I had going on today.  Any time I mix patterns I have to have something plain in between.  Maybe one of these days I'll graduate to pattern on pattern, but I'm taking baby steps here.

All that Glitters is Gold...

Sequins and sparkles always make a girl have fun, don't they?  This tank is another find on the Target clearance rack.  I really love that store sometimes!  I haven't worn this jacket in ages but the glittery gold thread went with the tank too perfectly to pass up.
