What I Wore Wednesday – Navy and Ivory
Hey Glossies, The classic combination of navy and ivory are great for all the seasons, but I do love to wear the combo during the spring and summer seasons.

What I Wore Wednesday – ShaToBu Shaping Rib Get Fit Tights
Hey Glossies, In my neck of the woods, over the past couple of weeks, the weather had very warm weather. During this time, I was very much under the weather. I was hopped up on meds in the house while everyone else was enjoying fun in the sun. Truth be told, I was not ready […] Read more…
Top Tuesday – Ralph Lauren Valencie Silk Ruffle Top
Hey Glossies, Like many of you, I am a frustrated shopper. I like what I like and want I want, which is classic Americana fashion.

What I Wore Wednesday – The Maxi Dress

What I Wore Wednesday – The Spicy Gold Flame
Hey Glossies, I love warm (bright) colors in the winter months. They uplift my mood, make me excited about the day, allow me to tolerate the season.
