October 8, 2016 8 Comments

There are scarves, and then there are blanket scarves. So what’s the difference? Blanket scarves are a larger version of your every-day scarves. My every-day scarf is long and narrow, and I can drape it around my shoulders. My blanket scarf is a large square that I can fold and twist and wear it a variety of ways. Take some blanket scarf styling cues from Cosmopolitan and try wearing your blanket scarf a new way. Ella Pretty Blog also styles her blanket scarf with jeans and fabulous accessories.

Fall Fashion with My ModCloth Loch and Key Scarf

October 4, 2016 No Comments

I am loving the Loch and Key ModCloth scarf I received in my Fall 2016 FabFitFun box last week. I love it so much, I decided to style my dress form with a simple denim dress and accessorize it with my new ModCloth scarf. Talk about serious #scarfgoals! The Loch and Key scarf seen below is taupe plaid, but the scarf comes in three other colors: black plaid, forrest plaid (sold out), and brown plaid. I put the scarf around the denim dress, like a shawl, and belted the dress and scarf. Because Fall can get a little chilly at night, […]

Winter Styles You’ll Want to Copy

January 25, 2016 No Comments

The first and second big snows of 2016 have hit the East and I must say, I love it! I love the look of stylish winter coats, and like many other women, I try to incorporate the styles I see on the street into my own personal style. Right now, I toggle back and forth between my Harley Davidson coat and my grandfather’s railroad puffer jacket (which makes me feel like he’s always got his arms around me). But I also love the look of a classy coat, like these from Bloomingdale’s. Photo Source: Bloomingdale’s 1. SAM. Freestyle Down Jacket […]

Wanderlust: Popular Thanksgiving Destinations

November 25, 2015 2 Comments

A couple of years ago, my husband and I left behind the cold weather of East Tennessee and headed west to warmer weather. We spent Thanksgiving in Las Vegas, Nevada. We had a blast walking around the different casinos, seeing the sights, and eating some great food. We stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, and it was fabulous. So what destinations are popular for Thanksgiving? It depends. You can head somewhere cold and snowy, and enjoy some skiing during the day and drink hot cocoa by the fire at nights. Or you can head somewhere warm, leave behind […]
