Inspired by Pinterest: Pink Tights & Denim Shorts
With every day feeling nearly the same as the day before and the day before and the day before, I am seriously struggling with creating content for you all. But I am trying my very best to keep things light hearted and fun, interesting and positive. Sometimes the fun is just in wearing bright colors and crazy clothes because in all honesty I don’t do much these days except homeschool my kids, work on my blog, read when I can, and watch movies and television series when my brain is too exhausted for anything else. Overall, these weeks spent in lockdown have made me lazier than I have ever been.…

Radical Ralphie Styling Seersucker and Plaid
Radical Ralphie took a nice long blogging break with me, of course, since I am the one who does most of the blogging work anyway! I don’t think he was too excited to get back to it either as convincing him to get dressed for photos this weekend resulted in some bribery. And after 25 quick photos were snapped, he abruptly declared, “Okay. I’m done.” I think I was more excited than he was to share this adorable combination of seersucker and plaid. I know it’s not really seersucker season quite yet, but when I spotted this darling blazer in Classy Kids Consignment Shop, I knew my little fashion blogging…

The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-October 2018-Plaid
Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book! Welcome! This is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. Over a year ago, Nancy and I started The Bad Buy Book, a monthly series about our worst purchases. It was a lot of fun to do and we both learned something from it, too! Nancy learned that off-white against her face is not the most flattering color. And I learned that I have a serious problem resisting a good thrift shop find when it comes to pieces that fit “good enough” but “not quite right.” However, after running that series for a year, we decided to change it a bit. For this series, you can choose…

Denim, Denim, Plaid, and Cowgirl Boots
I just realized how much I am enjoying my denim jackets this season (I have three). I have been wearing them most days lately since the temperatures have been in the 50’s and denim is exactly the right amount of warmth for me. I also am enjoying experimenting with the double denim trend. Last time I wore double denim, I paired two shades of blue denim together. This time, I went with black denim pants and a light blue denim jacket. And I really liked the contrast created with the super dark and the very pale. I layered a blue, black, and white flannel shirt over a black tank and…

Believe in Your Selfie
I suppose the message on my graphic tee speaks volumes, especially for fashion bloggers. A powerful message deserved an edgy look to go with it. So I layered a long plaid button down shirt on top in a traditional blackwatch plaid which is reminiscent of 90’s grunge. My graphic tee is in a very pale shade of blue which contrasted nicely against the darker blues and greens in the plaid. Dark wash skinny jeans, distressed lace-up booties, and layered thin necklaces completed my edgy look. Tee: Apt. 9 for Kohl’s. No longer available. However, if you are loving the statement, Kohl’s does have a decorative throw pillow and wall art…
