    15 September 2019 / 0 Comments

    I’ve finally done it. I created an Instagram account for Bleu. I don’t have small kids anymore, but I still need to practice my photography skills, so I’ve commissed Bleu as my model. Don’t worry, she’ll be paid generously in treats and belly rubs. Please Adopt. Don’t Shop. Best,     LET’S CONNECT           Follow Living Outside the Stacks on Bloglovin’!

This week has been the longest month ever. Monday was a nice day off. We didn’t do too much of anything, but Tuesday? I broke my glasses. Y’all, I cannot see a thing without my glasses. It’s not like I was doing anything rough. I. Was. Cleaning. Them. And they snapped in half. Fortunately, I keep all of my old glasses whenever I get a new pair {I can’t give them my glasses because I need to see} so I…

THE AGELESS STYLE LINKUP Hi, welcome to the Ageless Style Linkup. The linkup runs the first Tuesday of each month and features 10 women over the age of 40 styling an outfit based on one theme, and, because we’re all so different, each theme interpretation is different. Each month, one of the co-hosts invites a guest co-host to join us for the linkup. Our goal is to show you that style is ageless… This month’s theme is: “The Unexpected” and was…

A few months ago, I was scrolling Instagram and an ad for the sweetest little clothing boutique popped up in my feed. Normally, I don’t click on the ads because I assume they’re for an international company with questionable sizing and product quality buuuuut the items in this ad were so cute I had to look. And I’m so happy that I did. I ended up purchasing two tops from them during my first browse. Why? Because I was super impressed…

Hi, how are you? How was your weekend? We didn’t do much. We enrolled Bleu in a training class, so we’re staying near the house for the next few weeks so she doesn’t miss a class. She did really well her first day, but she came home and immediately fell asleep. Poor thing.
