Just Getting Around to It

I woke up late (for me) this morning, and therefore have only gotten through the Tribune so far. Seems that Sunday’s Emmys may have the lowest ratings ever. I did not watch it live, because I was at a wedding, but because I am a geek, I taped it. And by the way, I think [...]

The Monday After ….

…. and I’m still thinking “Wedding”. (Congratulations again to P + G. We had a fantastic time at your wedding. Good times, family and friends, tasty food, perfect weather …. what better way to start your married life! Enjoy your honeymoon!)Last week, I picked up the newest issue of InStyle Weddings, solely for the stationery [...]

Creating Desire

1. Lanvin Fabric and Pearl Choker, $525

I love this choker, for the simply because it would look good with so many things, from a little black dress, to a tee [...]

Feeling Like Fall

This morning feels very much like the start of fall. The air is cool and damp, the mood is calm and still (my son’s allergies are awful!) Over the weekend, I replaced the morning glory plant by our back door with the everlasting (fake) wreath above. I have a hard time leaving summer behind. Not [...]

Friday Flickr Five

It’s Friday. Time to make plans for the weekend. There will be soccer (of course), and hopefully a little shopping, a little resting, a little reading. I’m ready to start planning, so here are the Five:

acorns
apple
It’s been photographed before…..
classic beauty
cool cricket cola cap

thanks, Shari, for capturing signs of fall so well! Don’t forget – Fashion [...]
