Before Friday’s post went live, I asked members of the WO2 Community to ask any questions they had about how blogs make money. One asked how my life changed being a full-time career blogger versus keeping it a part-time job. The biggest change has been the pitching, the negotiating, the courting of brands… Continue Reading My Summer “Vacation”
I don’t watch a ton of TV… except in the summer. I don’t know why it’s different, I mean same job, same schedule, but I do. It reminds me of childhood, being slightly sunburned, freshly showered, curled up in an afghan my mon crocheted, down in the rec room which was always the coolest room… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #60
I hope today you get the chance to go outside and spend it with people you care about. Independence Day is one that has been affected by the recent administration. While our country is in turmoil right now, I don’t believe in throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I still love this country and… Continue Reading Happy Fourth (and sales)
This is a much-belated post, but do not think the delay has anything to do with the awesomeness that is Richmond, Virginia. I had the pleasure of spending a weekend in this city earlier this year and had such a great time I look forward to returning. I shared previously my Rebelle Conference review, which… Continue Reading A Weekend in Richmond, Virginia

I have learned so much, and have gained so much confidence. It also helped me make myself a priority.… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #59
So I shared the Talbots Friends & Family sale and spotlighted their leopard linen blazer. Talbots was kind enough to send me the blazer and it’s just as fab as I imagined. I received it after coming home from a weekend away at a music festival, much of my wardrobe in the laundry and the… Continue Reading My Favorite Shorts and a New Linen Blazer
I have written many times before on what to wear to a music festival. In my 20s and early 30s, I loved music festivals and attended over a dozen. I had my style down pat and had very definite opinions on what to wear. A decade later I attended my first music festival in a… Continue Reading What to Wear to a Music Festival
My daughter asked if this summer she could get a two-piece suit. She’s 10, she’s an age where she is starting to have definite opinions about style. We found a suit at Old Navy online that she liked; a top with a higher neck and a ruffle that covered the bust and matching bottom. The… Continue Reading Weekend Reads #58
