I’ve written on several occasions about how I take my time reading magazines. First I flip through it page-by-page, just looking at the photographs. Then I go back and literally (and I do mean literally) read it from cover-to-cover. Almost two weeks ago, I got four magazines in the mail and so far, I’ve read only two of them cover-to-cover: People StyleWatch and Glamour. So today I’m going to tell you a little about “what I took from Glamour magazine’s fall fashion issue.” First of all, there were three cover photos of the stunningly beautiful (but not smiling) Victoria Beckham. Here’s my […]
Dress Form Outfit #35
This week’s dress form outfit was purchased at thrift stores at separate times. The top was purchased at an American Thrift Store in Chattanooga while the skirt was purchased at a Goodwill store in Cleveland. I have often raved about my finds at thrift stores, and these two pieces are some of my great finds. The intricately stitched floral skirt features a lace hem and if you wanted to tuck in the sweater, then the wide waistband has belt loops so you could tie on a pretty black ribbon. Have a great week!
It’s that time of the month again – Magazine Monday!!
“Yea! Magazines!” That was my reaction when I went to the mailbox and was presented with not one, not two, but four magazines! And considering the fact that I’m getting ready to take a road-trip, I find the timing of these magazines in my mailbox fortuitous! Even though I’ll be able to download these magazines on my iPad, I still get excited about getting the physical magazine. I love the glossy covers, the perfume samples and the smell of the ink on the paper! I’m weird, I know, but I’ll always subscribe/purchase and read magazines the old fashioned way! The […]
Dress Form Outfit #34
I love comfortable clothes. I’ve mentioned this over and over again in my dress form outfit posts, and this week’s outfit is no different. Both the top and skirt are from Forever 21. This gray top has a dark blue tie-dye effect. It’s extremely light and roomy, and it comes down to the hips. I wear this outfit with a pair of flip-flops but you could wear a cute pair of dark blue flats or wedge sandals for date night! The bracelets (seen below) were given to me by my husband. I’ve worn the bracelets separately, and I’ve worn them […]
My Week in Pins
In one of my first posts, I blogged about how awesome Pinterest is and how everyone should check it out. It has everything from recipes to fashion, DIY crafts to inspirational quotes, and home decor to humorous pet photos. I may go a few days between “pinning” things to my Pinterest profile, and then I’ll pin three or four hours everyday for a week straight! My husband will see me using my iPad and ask, “Whatcha doin’?” to which I’ll reply, “Pinning!” So I decided to start a new “category” on my blog and call it “My Week in Pins.” […]
