Festing Like a Boss

They say your brain remembers memories better when you’re not taking a photo, but I think standing behind the camera helped to fuse this image into my brain. Karl, blue bandana tied at his neck, sitting in a chair with his foot up, a glass of bourbon in his hand, enjoying the view from our…

Weekend Reads #62

Tomorrow, my family and I are heading on vacation.  As I mentioned in my post about my summer vacation, a portion of this post may be sponsored and it will be the first city we visit.  We’ll be going to at least four locations, and the only real work I plan to do is at…

Navy Floral Midi Wrap Dress

Rent the Runway Unlimited… sometimes I love you so much, sometimes you frustrate me, and often you surprise me. I am heading out of town soon for a family vacation so I requested items to arrive appropriate for a trip.  Online, this navy floral midi wrap dress looked to be below-knee length.  I liked that…

How to Wear White and Not Be a Complete Mess

Okay, that title is totally misleading because I have no way to wear white and not be a complete mess.  Yet somehow I did it.  My friend Sylvia and I scheduled a lunch together to catch up and talk blogging; she was invited to an influencer event afterward and invited me to be her date. …

I Said I Wouldn’t Do It…

Last year I deleted my Nordstrom card from my online account. I cut up the card. And by the end of the year, I paid off the entire balance. Nordstrom was my weakness, they had my size, they shipped quickly. I’d get a box, pour a glass of wine, try on, take my time with…

When you read this, I will be in Nashville. Well, the Gaylord Opryland to be more specific as I will be there for Scoop, the cabi conference and 99% of the time I won’t be leaving the resort grounds. I am really excited; I went to Scoop the last time it was in Nashville and…

Where I Buy Activewear

One of the most popular questions I am asked on Instagram is where I buy my activewear. And I haven’t written a post about it because my answer is not exciting. I am 5’3” which has me between regular and petite sizing, and I wear a 14 in pants, 12 in some jeans. This makes…
