Quite a few bloggers seem to be wearing gingham these days so maybe it is “on trend”. Gingham was very much a trend for me a few short years ago in 1966. That’s when I made my black and white gingham Mary Quant dress. Special memories this dress brings, so I hope to keep itContinue reading “My Sew Sew Life-The Gingham Trend + 1st.

Winter White Sweater Dress & 2nd Loved 1st Friday Linkup
Welcome to my first post of 2018. MeadowTree Style had its second birthday this week. Two years ago I decided to try my hand at blogging about style. I had no idea where this road would take me or if I would find my groove. But here I am just having a ball. I amContinue reading “Winter White Sweater Dress & 2nd Loved 1st Friday Linkup”
Red Fit and Flair
We all have our LBDs but do you have your little red dress? I’ve been having fun styling my red fit and flair lined dress by Calvin Klein. It’s always a favorite of mine for special events. This dress has twenty-four gores–can really swish & swing–and is so much fun to wear. Using three stylings,Continue reading “Red Fit and Flair”
The LBD-2nd Loved 1st Friday Linkup
Everyone needs a black dress. Of my top ten of things to have in my closet, the LBD is number one. If you have just one LBD, it should be simple and preferably sleeveless because a sleeveless dress is more versatile. I took my little black dress and restyled it four ways using accessories: bags,Continue reading “The LBD-2nd Loved 1st Friday Linkup”
One Hard Working Top
My official photographer (aka Michael the Hubby) is up in Canada fishing this week with our nephews. With my in-house photographer not at home, I went on my own expedition and went photo hunting in my files for today’s post. Fortunately, May and June have been busy months and we took quite a few pictures. Continue reading “One Hard Working Top”
The Shawl Dawl
Before I even get started today, I want to say thank you to Nicole Molders of High Latitude Style for letting me co-host with her this week. I have been wanting to do this for eons and am so happy to get the opportunity. Thank you Nicole! I have been having so much fun withContinue reading “The Shawl Dawl”
Repeat and Variation
For decades, Gloria Everhart’s Act II consignment shop offered high end fashion to women and men in the Kansas City area. At age 90, Gloria retired and Act II closed its doors. I am sad (like a host of others) to see this iconic boutique go and will miss it. At my last visit, IContinue reading “Repeat and Variation”
My Sew Sew Life-Plaid, Suede and Faux Fur. An Easy No Sew Shawl!
Back in August I had a hankering for a brown plaid wool shawl. Probably reading far too much of Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series, but I also just wanted a good piece of wool. Hunting in the usual places (Vogue Fabrics, Mood Fabrics and Joann’s) left me empty handed. Finally I went to my favorite haunt.Continue reading “My Sew Sew Life-Plaid, Suede and Faux Fur.

My Sew Sew Life-Inspired By The Past
Kansas City Fashion Week has come and gone. This is my third post covering those events. Usually, I would have rolled all the styles into one post. However, each of the stylings inspired something extra. This was the third year Rachelle and I went to the Saturday night runway show. I wore pants each time.Continue reading “My Sew Sew Life-Inspired By The Past”
Fall Garden Party
Last Sunday was a perfect Indian Summer day to have a garden party celebrating the beginning of Kansas City Fashion Week. We mingled at the beautiful Van Noy mansion in Kansas City, MO, for brunch and cocktails. I wore an oval vest that I picked up about four years ago at the Vero Beach MuseumContinue reading “Fall Garden Party”
