It was fun to start up What I Wore again last week. Many of you wondered about the blue shoes with bows {Report Halle Shoe} and my new boots {Civico 10 Remmington riding boots}. The blue shoes were purchased a few years ago and… Continue Reading…w.i.w. {with thoughts on the skinny jean}
So, I hate to disappoint you regular readers, but there is no What I Wore post today. Believe me, you wouldn’t want to see anything I wore this past week anyway. And it was sort of nice to have a break from awkwardly posing in… Continue Reading…5 days of favorite projects {day 3}
I love a good project. In fact I feel a little lost when I’m not working on something. This week, I’ll be putting together a tutorial each day on some of my favorite projects, which {I think} are also some of yours. Let me start… Continue Reading…5 days of favorite projects {day 1}

I read earlier this week that it takes about six weeks to get into the rhythm of back to school. We’re wrapping up week 5 and this gives me great hope because if whoever said that six week bit is correct, then by next week… Continue Reading…Life Lately | What I learned in September
We just returned from a few days away on vacation. It was so, so good. A group of us camped and boated in eastern Washington at a lake called Banks Lake. I mean, how pretty is that?! One thing I love about Washington is that… Continue Reading…We went on a little vacation and I packed a few things
I’m keeping up with this year’s goal to document a few of the things each month has taught me. You can read about what I learned in January here and February here. Now for March. March has not traditionally been my favorite month because it… Continue Reading…What March Taught Me
Summer fashion means light-weight, fresh, easy and casual. I’m a Pacific Northwest girl and our summer temperatures typically max out around the high 80’s, so I switch between jeans (forever my favorite), shorts (not my fave, but I’m learning to embrace them), basic dresses (always an… Continue Reading…Seven favorite outfits for the summer
Friends. We leave on our 3.5 month road trip in 9 days. I’m starting to freak out a little. As the date comes closer, our to-do list gets bigger. Our heads were beginning to bulge, so we taped up a laminated poster to a very visible door and… Continue Reading…a little bit of this and that
There is something extra special about dressing up for the holidays. Whether you have a fancy party, a big work event, or you just want to dress up for Christmas Eve service or a New Year’s Eve spent at home, putting on something a bit dressier than… Continue Reading…5 Looks For Holiday Parties
I was late to the ankle bootie party. When they first came into fashion a few years ago, I thought they were odd looking and I had no idea how to wear them in my regular work-at-home mom life. Last fall, I finally came around and bought… Continue Reading…How to Wear An Ankle Bootie
You all know I’m a forever-and-always neutral girl. But mixed in, I usually have a certain color I’m drawn to at the moment. Sometimes it’s blue (usually it’s blue), sometimes mustardy-yellow, once it was orangey/peach. Right now, I’m feeling emerald green. This deep, pure, bright-ish-but-not-too-bright… Continue Reading…Inspired by Emeralds

Ryan makes fun of me because every time a new holiday comes I adamantly declare that it is my favorite. But Easter really is my favorite. Growing up, our Easters consisted of easter basket scavenger hunts, Sandi Patti playing on the record player, marshmallow peeps… Continue Reading…free easter printables
