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”

Going For The Gold: Elegance In December Holidays
Can one have an elegant wardrobe for the holidays and still be on the Good-For-Planet-Earth road of slow fashion (look for well-made 2nd hand/make-it-yourself/buy from local designers or producers)? See what you think after the looks below. In getting ready for a holiday get-together, casual or dressy, I’m inclined to pick silk, velvet, or beadedContinue reading “Going For The Gold: Elegance In December Holidays”
The One I Almost Left Behind & 2nd Loved 1st Friday Link-Up
About fifteen years ago, I was rummaging through my favorite local flea market (still my favorite). I usually went there then to find vintage glass and kitchen ware. However, on that summer day, I saw two Pendleton 49’ers hanging in a back booth, both in good condition and each only $5! I grabbed the oneContinue reading “The One I Almost Left Behind & 2nd Loved 1st Friday Link-Up”
Turquoise, Coral and Orange For Summer Style
Turquoise, coral, orange with a little brown and golden tan: these colors evoke clear skies, desert, sun and heat. Add a bit of turquoise jewelry and I feel an American southwestern vibe. This look wasn’t instant but fell together one element at a time. The Dress The Rachel Kate lined chiffon dress is from aContinue reading “Turquoise, Coral and Orange For Summer Style”
The Kampala: A Well Connected Bag
A bag can be utilitarian, a status symbol, the “it” item of the year, a work of art, a connection to someone or the past….I am sure I’m leaving something out. And of course, bags are just things. They do not live, breathe or have a heart and soul. But some bags can connect usContinue reading “The Kampala: A Well Connected Bag”

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”
A Dahl of a Wrap
Earlier this spring, I featured my very versatile Shawl Dawl. It’s fun coming up with different ways to style it. For spring it was more of a dramatic style statement. For summer, it’s going to have more of a utilitarian function: just a simple wrap. June nights are cooler here in Missouri. Its handy toContinue reading “A Dahl of a Wrap”
Loving My Red Paisley-2nd Loved 1st Friday #3
This 2nd Loved 1st Friday Linkup is all about Paisley. Yes, Paisley, the classic pattern that can be preppy, bohemian, exotic, and can harken back to the hippy dippy 60’s. I love paisley, not the red bandana kind, but the rich exotic patterns. Luckily I have managed to find three pieces this year on my thrifting excursions and, better yet,Continue reading “Loving My Red Paisley-2nd Loved 1st Friday #3”
