Hi! Welcome to another round of Style Imitating Art. I hope y’all had a good weekend. We did. We started decorating the house for Christmas, something we haven’t done since the kids moved out. This year, however, everyone is coming to our place for Christmas and I want it to be festive for the grandbabies. INSPIRATION…
Fab Forties: Western Wear
When I was invited to join the Fab Forties I had no idea I’d be stretched so far out of my sartorial comfort zone. First, it was a goth look and now it’s Western Wear. Naturally, the first thing I did {after groaning} was hit up Pinterest for some inspiration. As you can tell, most…
Fab Forties: Goth Vibes
I’m happy to announce that I’m the newest member of The Fab Forties. To say I’m excited and a bit intimidated would be an understatement, but I look forward to working with these ladies and showing you all just how fabulous your forties can be. About the Fab Forties The Fab Forties is a group…
Boho with the Fab 40s
I’m not really what you’d call a fashion or style blogger, I’m more of a “so this morning I was thinking about this or that and I decided to write about it blogger”, so I was thrilled beyond belief when Jennie from A Pocketful of Polka Dots asked me to join her and the rest…
Rock the Red Pump {In the Cafe}
“Change your shoes, change your life…” Or change someone else’s. On Monday, 10 March, I’ll be rocking my red pumps {or cowboy boots} for a very special cause: The Red Pump Project. The Red Pump Project is an advocacy organization that seeks to raise awareness about women and girls who’re living with or who’ve been affected…
Coffee Talk {In the Cafe}
Hi, and welcome to Coffee Talk. In case you’re new here, this is where I share some of the great and not~so~great stuff that I find on the web. Topics range from news stories that leave me scratchin’ my head to DIYs that I think are absolutely clever. And there may be a recipe thrown…
Google Reader is Disappearing {In the Cafe}
Ya know, it seems like every time I start using a product or get hooked on a TV show, Jericho, anyone? it gets discontinued and I’m left scrambling to find a replacement… And so it is with my favorite feed reader, Google Reader. Last week’s 365 Project: 2013 Edition theme was “Double Exposure”; this was…
Rock the Red Pump {In the Cafe}
First of all, I’d like to give all honor and glory to God for allowing me to celebrate my 40th birthday today. He has blessed me with so much: good health, a loving family {some by blood, many by choice}, friends who mean the world to me, and this platform that allows me to reach…
Easy Twist Out Tutorial {Natural Hair}
I’m doing it again. I’m giving up the Creamy Crack (aka hair relaxer). I know, it seems like I do this every couple of months but this time I’m determined to see it through. Last time I lasted a full year and was completely natural, then I went to my mom’s and the rest is…
Brown Oxfords {Shoe Style Saturday}
This is a repost and a link up with Passion for Fashion which is hosted by Lena B. from Lena B, Actually and Beth from Through the Eyes of the Mrs. Happy Saturday! I hope all is going well in your neck of the woods. We’ve been having mad crazy storms all week long. Seriously,…
