So last night after work I did something I have wanted to do since high school – I saw Sinead O’Connor in concert. Sinead was one of my favorites as a teen – her music really struck me. One year my parents got me a Beta video of her in concert but I hoped someday… Continue Reading Wednesday Night
It’s raining. I mean, I am glad for it because everything has been so darn dry but that plus the dark mornings already taking place… it’s hard to be lively in the AM. Olive linen puff-sleeved shift dress from Old Navy, dark “The Flirt” bootcut jeans from Old Navy, black city boots from Impo, silver… Continue Reading Wednesday
No pics from Monday, I didn’t have a camera and well… I didn’t even look too cute. My teal Proenza Schouler dress and black ballet flats. Today – black cotton stretchy v-neck sweater from Banana Republic, dark denim skirt from Gap, avocado pashmina from Nordstrom, tan Bern boots from Duo, silver cuff and hoops. Hair… Continue Reading Tuesday
I am always on the look for a pair of boots that fit my large calves, yet still have great style. Like plus-sized clothing, this combination is hard to find. Seems that all boots for larger calves are boring styles or totally tacky and/or dated. A reader told me about Duo, a UK-based company that… Continue Reading Vendor Review – Duo
Hey everyone! Sorry I have been MIA, I had training at work yesterday and no computer time. So this weekend was pretty great – fun events and gorgeous weather. Saturday started with yoga as usual (no pic, black knit herum pants from C.enne C. Couture, white scoop tee from Gap), then ran a few errands… Continue Reading This Weekend

Hair was washed and conditioned the night before, a bit of Jonathan Silky Dirt while damp and air… Continue Reading Friday: Oct 19, 2007
I am all about searching for a bargain. I have found high quality items at big box retailers, discount stores, thrift stores and eBay. Thing is, nine times out of ten if you buy from a company that prides itself on low prices, you’ll often get quality comparative to that price. Case in point, Newport… Continue Reading You Usually Get What You Pay For
Another terribly foggy day in the Nation’s Capital. Heading north on 295 traffic was stop and go – not because of any issues – just people rubbernecking at fog. I then treated myself to a Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks after my ridiculous commute. Black cotton wrap shirt from Ann Taylor, dark denim pencil skirt… Continue Reading Thursday
Ruckus says hello. Ruckus can NOT handle me closing the office door on him when I take my picture (I swear it’s like 10 seconds, hence strange angles and occasional blurry shots) so he usually comes in and makes himself at home on an old blanket I threw ont he floor as a makeshift second… Continue Reading Wednesday
