Is it just me or are more and more shoes designed to make women look like Clydesdales?
Tell me the truth from the fashion perspective (ignore price, comfort, practicality).
Would You Wear This Sweater? 2011
Posted by Rebecca Teti in Just me on Monday, December 05, 2011
Welcome to the 2011 Edition of Would You Wear This Sweater?
At first glance, this one may seem kind of tame in comparison with previous editions.
Before you answer: you should know that each of the snowmen depicted on this sweater is sporting a Christmas sweater of his own.
And those sweaters are “showcasing the beloved Victorian imagery of Thomas Kinkade.”

So now: would you wear this sweater?
As always, you are among friends; we won’t judge you.

We dive into recent posts by Rachel and Arwen, making reference to a great age appropriate chore list shared by Danielle. How do you handle chores at home? How do you motivate kids to do them well...

Cheap Thrills

I didn’t actually need a summer purse. I had a nice bag in a light color that would go with everytning.
But when I walked past a display of handbags in colorful prints, I started thinking how nice it would be to have something little more fun, a little more summery, a lot less boring than my safe, neutral-toned standby. But not at department store prices.
Luckily, it’s yard sale season. I hit a... READ MORE
My Fashion Find
Posted by DariaSockey in Reviews on Tuesday, May 24, 2011
Since my birthday, anniversary, and Mother’s Day all occur within a few weeks, I usually make it easy on my husband who would be hard pressed to come up with three gifts on his own.
On my birthday this year, after we spent a lovely spring morning hiking and doing lots of nature photography in a nearby state park, we proceeded to an outlet mall where I went on a (restrained) shoppping spree.
One... READ MORE

In May a (young, old or in-between) woman’s thoughts turn to —Sandals!
We need at least 3 pair: the sturdy, everyday equivalent of a jogging shoe; medium heels for any time we want to look good but will be on our feet for an extended period; and high heels for Sunday Mass, dinner dates, and weddings. Thanks to last year’s end of season sales, I already had everything I needed. But ...

Shawls From Across the World

Our joy this Easter was considerably increased by the presence of my oldest son, William, who is naval intelligence specialist.
He recently completed an assignment in Afghanistan, where he served as an adjunct instructor, teaching Afghani soldiers of various tribal affiliations how to gather and interpret information. William spent much of his free time in the green zone market place, with two excellent... READ MORE

Hello ladies!
The Kentucky Derby is here! Will any of you lovely Kentucky girls be attending (or otherwise celebrating) this weekend? I must admit, being a Southern transplant, I don’t know much about the Derby. The first thing that always comes to mind when I hear it mentioned is ... well, Mint Juleps! Now that’s a tradition I can get behind! 
The second thing that comes to mind is hats! Big, beautiful... READ MORE
Do You Love This Royal Wedding Day?
Posted by AGroup in Just me on Friday, April 29, 2011
Good morning, girls! It’s Royal Wedding Day! How many cups of coffee had you had?
As I write this I still wait with bated breath to see what the lovely Kate Middleton has chosen to wear. Did she play it safe? Or did she take any risks? Is it too much to hope that we might see some flashy stilettos peeking out from underneath that princess gown?
And did you cry? I’m sure I will/did. Not so much because... READ MORE
Calling Grace Kelly
Posted by AGroup in Just me on Friday, March 04, 2011
More than once I’ve been asked if I have any tips for making shopping for clothes easier. Yesterday it dawned on me that there is one very helpful thing I do that saves me time, energy and money:
I have a style icon. Her name is Grace Kelly and I absolutely adore her look.
Why is having a style icon helpful? Ultimately, it helps me stay focused. When I go shopping, I always have Grace Kelly in mind.... READ MORE
