Today, in the US, we're supposed to take a day off and reflect upon our many blessings, and the abundance of our lives.
Tomorrow, we're supposed to go buy stuff that we really really need.
Maybe, tomorrow, try to remember how contented and comfortable you feel today, and sincerely question what you're buying.

If you can wear yellow and grey well, I must heartily encourage you to do so - these colors are always so delightful to see together. The citrine jewelry is particularly fun, and not blindingly expensive. Sunshine and clouds together...As always, if you have trouble with the links, PLEASE let me know. I'm not always sure what goes wrong, but I'm always eager to fix things!

November 26, 2013 Camel is such a versatile neutral! These are the camel garments that I showed a few days earlier, looking quite lovely with deep teal blue.

Just some simple, solid colors that look rich yet uncomplicated...

November 22, 2013 A classic cabled cardigan is always a good starting-point for this travel outfit. After I tossed in a striped top, I thought that a solid scarf with a little bit of embellishment might be a calming touch. This scarf is one of those things that you could wear forever... and if you want jewelry made of genuine stones that don't break the bank, take a look at Novica. You know that these aren't investment-grade gems, but they aren't glass or synthetic, and the unique designs are delightful.

I love these travel vignettes, and I'm going to share the step by step thought process I go through to build them.
Once you have your two core neutrals chosen, the rest just falls into place. It gives you a great deal of ease in life to have a nicely-chosen wardrobe that is focused...
First off, choose your travel outfit using any combination of the two colors I usually opt for a cardigan and pants that are the same color, and then use the 2nd color for shoes and a coat. A printed tee shirt, and a printed scarf, that include the 2 colors, finishes off your travel outfit.
Your watch and your bag will probably be in one of your neutral colors, and a simple pair of stud earrings give you some ... View the Post
November 20, 2013 It's that time of year, when many of us have to put in a beautiful appearance with family and friends. Packing light, and smart, is a good way to begin. And cranberry is such an appropriate color for autumn holidays...
And if your weekend is longer than most, or if you absolutely can't bear the thought of traveling with only 4 pieces of clothing, consider adding these:

Well, my mother is securely and warmly ensconced in her new home, and I have logged quite a few miles - air and ground - in making that dream a reality. As with all things in life, I think I learned a thing or two on my travels. At a minimum, I have a newly warm appreciation for a couple of my wiser packing choices, and a refreshed dislike of Midway Airport. Just to get this out of the way first - if you have a choice between the 2 Chicago airports, choose O'Hare. Yes, it is bigger than some European countries, and you can walk yourself into a marathon getting around there, but at least it has clear signs giving you a clue about where to go. And moreover, it has SEATS. In a place where people have to ... View the Post
