One of my favorite colors and a great campaign to support; National Wear Red Day. Join me next Friday in wearing red and spreading awareness about women’s heart disease. Friday, February 1, 2008, is National Wear Red Day—a day when Americans nationwide will take women’s health to heart by wearing red to show their support… Continue Reading Wear Red on February 1st – Heart Disease Doesn’t Care What You Wear
I don’t want to admit that I broke my toe earlier this month. I keep wearing shoes that have heels thinking I am fine and by time I am home, my foot is throbbing. I give up; I wear flats until it heals. 🙁 Navy stretch cotton v-neck sweater from Banana Republic, gray “Drew” trousers… Continue Reading Thursday
Cold but sunny, and had to take a long lunch for my uncle’s funeral at Arlington Cemetary (he passed a couple of months ago). So needed something nicer looking, work-appropriate, layers for warmth during an outside ceremony and shoes that could handle lots of walking. Purple merino dress from Goodwill, brown suede slouch boots from… Continue Reading Wednesday
I hate too many rules with fashion – it takes the fun out of it.

Sorry so late. So Friday… hard to remember after my weekend! I believe it was very very cold and slushy and gross. On top of that, I broke the heel on my Impo city boots and am still hobbling a bit from the broken toe. Didn’t make for a fashion plate sort of day! Teal… Continue Reading Friday: Jan 22, 2008
Today I knew it was going to snow and possibly be icy; also had to get to work early because a platform I use for my job was being wacko last night and I couldn’t get my tasks completed before leaving work. And… my feet hurt from yesterday and wanted something comfy. Burgundy merino shift… Continue Reading Thursday
Sorry about yesterday… it was very busy at work and next thing I knew I was on the Metro home and hadn’t posted my outfit! Then my hubby took the laptop on his business trip… well you get two days in one. I also think it’s funny because not until I uploaded the pics to… Continue Reading Tuesday and Wednesday
