Do you listen to podcasts? I do. I especially enjoy listening to fashion and fashion history podcasts. Charles Beckwith’s American Fashion Podcast was the first podcast that I subscribed to and still is one of my favorites. Generally, he works and broadcasts out of New York but occasionally goes on the road. Earlier this summerContinue reading “Trina Turk Silk Top: August’s Slow Fashion Linkup”

Wearing Asiatica & February’s Linkup
Last week, my beloved photographer accompanied me into Asiatica, a most unique and high-end retail store in Kansas City.

One Thing Connects To Another
First off, I don’t buy anything unless I like it. And even then, it has to somehow fit what I already have. So if I’m intrigued or distracted by an item, I try to visualize how it might fit with what’s in my closet, how it might be styled.
