Inspired by Pinterest & Carson: Colorful Tights
Carson might kill me for putting his name right there in the title of my post. All big and bold and glaring you in the face. Or maybe he won’t. I guess I’ll find out when he reads it. But I had to do it. Because he really did inspire this outfit. In case you are asking, “Who the heck is Carson?”, you can just go to the search bar here on my blog and type his name. It will bring you directly to every post where he has been mentioned. You can even see his face in some of the posts. So now, how did my friend inspire this…

The Holiday Series 2018-Happy New Year & Link Up On the Edge #126
As I sit drafting this post on Christmas Day, I am feeling like a much overdue blogging break is needed here on the edge. With that I am going to share my second to last outfit of 2018, the final post in Ada’s Holiday Series (featuring our New Year’s Eve looks), the final link up of the year, and my final thoughts until I return back to my regular blogging schedule some time next week. I will be posting on December 31 with The Fab 40’s and it’s a really fun theme this month, so be sure to check that one out. Then I will begin my short blogging hiatus.…

It’s All in the Details & Ageless Style Link Up
Can I just tell you how excited I was when Debbie of Fashion Fairy Dust reached out to me last month and invited me to join her and the other fabulous ladies of Ageless Style for March’s link up? I did a little happy dance…in my head mostly because I’m not much of a dancer. But I definitely smiled a great giant grin of elation and promptly accepted the invitation with enthusiasm. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the Ageless Style Link Up, it is a monthly blogger collaboration series with a link up where nine of the most stylish and amazing bloggers come together to showcase…

Inspired by Fashion Fairy Dust: DressLily Lace Extender & Networking
Last week, I attended a meeting with a group of amazing women and two fabulous men. We were discussing the topic of networking in business and the fact that many people tend to shy away from the term. I suppose the whole concept of networking and network marketing can be rather intimidating especially if you are bashful and laid back. Not wanting to be pushy, I find networking my small business a rather daunting task. Until I realized what it actually means to network. *This is a sponsored post. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own. *Lace Extender: Plus Size Lace Extender Sheer Mini Skirt c/o DressLily. As we…

Transition and Edge of the Week Link Up #13
I have always considered myself a fairly adaptable person. I have moved a few times in my life and changed jobs abruptly and found myself in situations where most people would find the transition quite difficult. Yet, I usually adapted pretty quickly and got comfortable where I was at that point in time. However, a recent transition seems to be kind of rocking my world. And it is confusing me! My oldest child has started Kindergarten! And seriously, I am all out of sorts. Not really emotionally out of sorts. Just sort of all around out of sorts. Before school started, I was excited for the inevitable “more free time…

Don’t Let the Feelings Choke You
If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know that I have a long, disturbing history with Bipolar Disorder. Through countless hours of therapy, endless cocktails of psychotropic medications, measureless pools of tears, and unfathomable depths of darkness for more than a decade of my life, I somehow found my way to the other side, to a brighter life, to the life I had always wished for. And through this process not only have I discovered myself, but I also learned some very effective coping skills. Being proud of myself for how far I have come in the healing process, I like to share what I have learned…
