I know I’ve made a wise buy if I have so many phone pix of me wearing it that we don’t have to get out the camera for a photo shoot. This usually means the wise buy goes with tons of things already in my closet. As you may know, I really like items thatContinue reading “Some Great Slacks”

One Perfect Top
Hmmm…when a new top grabs me, I have questions. Do I like it enough to wear for a few years? How many ways can I wear it with what I already have in my closet? Well made/designed well? What’s the texture…how does the fabric feel? Does it compliment my body? I don’t usually ask ifContinue reading “One Perfect Top”
What I’m Wearing For Valentine’s Day (Something New + Thrifted + Made by Yours Truly.)

It’s been fun experimenting with waysContinue reading “The Versatility of a Long Cardigan”

With a full buttoned front, this top can be used for an extra layered look or just by itself. The sleeves (which are lined with another fabric) can be turned up (to show off bracelets)Continue reading “Mad About Plaid & Tunics”

Covered Perfectly’s Long and Lean Vest-Part 1

Covered Perfectly’sContinue reading “Covered Perfectly’s Long and Lean Vest-Part 1”
My Sew-Sew Life-A New White Shirt
Hello dear friends, I’m back today to chat about white shirts. Yes, white shirts, which at first seem so boring. However, with their wide range of styles, they are anything but and can open up many a new style adventure. A few months ago, I published the Baker’s Dozen of Closet Necessities. First on thatContinue reading “My Sew-Sew Life-A New White Shirt”
