Every year, millions of fashionistas (almost all women, and some men) wait patiently for Vogue magazine’s “September Issue”. This year was no different, with the industry’s “fashion Bible” touting “916 pages of spectacular fall fashion for all”! And of course I was one of those millions who purchased the September issue with a certain level of expectation that there would truly be a wide array of “fall fashion for all”, meaning fall fashion that anyone and everyone could afford. First let me say that the issue didn’t even begin until page 76, which showed the first “table of contents”. Yes, I’m saying […]
Dress Form Outfit #39
This week’s dress form outfit is casual and comfortable. I paired a charcoal gray pencil skirt with a light gray and silver tank top, and topped that tank top with a black short sleeve crocheted sweater. When I get ready to wear this outfit, I will pair it with my black Mossimo booties. The skirt was purchased online from Victoria’s Secret. The tank was purchased at the Forever 21 in Tampa, Fla., and the black crocheted sweater was purchased at the H&M in Sanford, Fla. Have a great day!
“Salmon Fishing” is a Delightful Charmer
“When things get tricky in my life, I talk to my fish,” said Dr. Alfred Jones. Although Dr. Alfred Jones didn’t spend much time talking to fish in the dramedy Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, his quirky character was instrumental in helping to bring salmon fishing to the country of Yemen.

My Week in Pins… Nailed It!
In browsing Pinterest this week, I’ve been seeing some really cool nail polish colors and designs. So this week in pins, I decided to show off several different nail polish colors and styles that I’m really digging. These stylish nail colors can be worn for work and play! On a personal note, I’m currently wearing OPI Pink of Hearts 2012 – “You Glitter Be Good to Me” and “I Think in Pink”. Go to “The PolishAholic” to check out her review of the Pink of Hearts duo. I’m also a fan of OPI “I’m Not Really A Waitress” (red) and […]
Richard Gere: Actor and Humanitarian
Selected by People magazine as one of the “50 Most Beautiful People” in 1991 and then as the “Sexiest Man Alive” in 1999, Richard Gere still has that “distinguished older gentleman” look that continues to make him, in my opinion, sexy. He may have turned down some major roles in the past (like the lead roles in both Die Hard and Wall Street), but he has starred in some pretty amazing roles. Gere first made heads turn and women swoon when he played Julian in American Gigolo. He followed that movie with An Officer and a Gentleman, where he played Zack Mayo […]
