To be honest, I didn’t plan on making a blog post about this outfit, but I had so many DMs about my Janis Joplin tee that I thought I’d go ahead and do an outfit post!

Shades of Violet – Tie-Sleeve Cardigan (& Link Up)
January 25, 2018Last week, we discussed the color of the year, Ultra Violet. This week I’m wearing a slightly different and personally more flattering shade of violet, more of a fuchsia, or for those who follow color trends … more of a “Radiant Orchid” or “Spring Crocus.”

April 20, 2017It’s been “weekend vibes” all week around here … yay for my spring break! The weather has been a bit chilly, but that’s okay because I have this cute embroidered sweatshirt to wear!

Hamsa & Fun Fashion Friday Link Up!
April 9, 2015
Everything old is new again.
The hamsa image is showing up on tshirts and jewelry all over the place. This ancient symbol has been used for centuries as protection against the evil eye in the Middle East and parts of Africa. The vibe of this amulet fits right in with the bohemian aestetic so on trend right now.
Outfit details and shopping ideas:
Distressed BF jeans – Old Navy
Jewelry – Tillys
Studded clutch – Urban Expressions (Nordstrom Rack)
Shop for studded clutches at Zappos
Shop for studded clutches at Shopbop

And while the hansa symbol may guard against the evil eye, it’s no protection at all against my wild Siberian husky!
I decided to go with a casual theme for this week’s features:
Here’s Jill of Doused in Pink looking so cool and comfy.

Distressed jeans – Old Navy
Booties – Vince Camuto
Bag – Nine West
Purple tee – Target

My husband got into the spirit and wore this rainbow Robert Graham shirt. Doesn’t he look handsome?
The show was great and we had a blast!
Wouldn’t Rebecca of Red Tag Chic Los Angeles fit right in with our boho vibe? Loving this Stevie Nicks inspired ensemble she shared with us last week!
And I’m positive Steve Nicks would also approve of this magical look from Andrea of Boho Bunnie!
How lovely is Annette of Lady of Style in this pretty blue tunic?
And Glenda of So What to Twenty is looking like walking sunshine in this beautiful yellow dress!
Thanks so much everyone for linking up last week! I’m so happy to say that Fun Fashion Friday is growing every week! Have fun linking up, please link back, and be sure to visit and comment on some other blogs so we can all feel the LOVE!

Middle-aged Goldilocks & Fun Fashion Friday Link Up!
February 18, 2015I felt a bit like Goldilocks recently looking for a chambray shirt. The shirt was either too big, too small, too dark, too light, too short, too stiff, or too boxy. So this middle-aged Goldilocks was thrilled to finally find this shirt that was just right! It’s Cloth and Stone (an Anthropologie brand) and I found it at Crossroads Trading, a store with new and gently used clothing to buy, sell, or trade.
It was the perfect color and length for me and so soft too. Isn’t the back detail cute?
Outfit details:
Jeans – Gap Always Skinny
Plain white tee – Old Navy
Shooties – Madden Girl
Black straw bag – Vintage
Necklace – Lucky Brand
Earrings – Nordstrom Rack
Sunglasses – Readers.com
Denim with denim? Of course! We all know those old rules no longer apply!
And this little guy wanted to come see what Mommy was up to.
Sending out a huge thanks to everyone who has been participating in FUN FASHION FRIDAY! I’m having tons of fun and I hope everyone else is too!
Here are a few of my favorite Valentine’s Day inspired looks from last week …
Debbie of Fashion Fairy Dust is looking hip and chic in her plaid sweatshirt and leather skirt.
Alice of Happiness at Mid-life is a feminine romantic vision in pretty polka dots.
How adorable is Chioma of Chioma’s Evolution of Style in her Barbie pink skirt and denim jacket?
Miriam of Farm Girl outdid herself this week with this precious Valentine’s Day look. Love those red tights!
Laura of I Do DeClaire looks fabulous in this cozy red sweater and those great pattern pixie pants!
Okay Dolls, time to party …
