Earlier this week I rounded up standout seersucker pieces on the market. There was one glaring omission and that was purposeful. I did not include seersucker swim because there is so freaking much of it this season. Unfortunately, only one of the tank styles is available in long torso. Life is not fair. top // [...]

Tall Torso Tank Swim
I went the entire last summer without wearing a two piece swimsuit. Not only am I no longer a spring chicken and feel as though I have aged out of the bikini market, but I do not feel so confident in my body now that I have gained my married weight. One piece swimsuits used [...]
Green Therapy featuring Antrim 1844
The Tuesday afternoon of our trip to Antrim 1844 brought my husband and I outside and exploring the grounds of the property. There is more than just the mansion that serves as accommodations for Antrim 1844 and it is worth taking a walk around the property to admire each building. It was such an amazing [...]
Shopping Moratorium 2018 | 282/83
What did I buy this month? Well, with a gala coming up for the first week in October, a size six gown (Jesus, take the wheel), and weight loss not going the way I hoped, I bought three dresses in two sizes each. beaded dress // ruffle strapless dress // flocked dress My plan was [...]
A Diamond in the Muff
Can we start prepping for winter? I am not sure when this set of earmuffs initially came on the market but I do know that I initially noticed them back in June. Maybe they are from last winter? I really don't know the timing, but I do know that I want to wear them when [...]
Is This Coat a Mistake?
I was instantly attracted to this coat. I think it is because it reminds me of the 1990s. If you have been reading this blog for awhile, you know how I am into the late 90s. I remember thumbing through a 'Teen magazine circa winter 1996-1997. There was most definitely an article that outlined your [...]
Black and White Silence
I started to notice that a lot of the items that were going on the bookmarks list were black, white, or black and white. I don't know if it has to do with my recent obsession with SATC, or if it is something else. Probably something else because the stuff I have been attracted to [...]
A Color Story
A few days ago, I realized that many of my recent bookmarks were a soft green-blue. Something about it reminds me of a deserted beach on a cloudy day. Sure, any beach is instantly upped by sunshine, but I think there is something rather relaxing to a grey / blue / green day on the [...]
Resort Craving
It is always around this time of year that I wish I had planned a resort vacation. I could definitely go for 85 degree weather and a salted rim margarita. Give me a caftan, metallic sandals, and big sunglasses any day. Last year it hit 85 degrees on Easter. Here is hoping that Mother Nature [...]
Tickled Mink
In the past two weeks, these mink coats have been brought to my attention. The price is not that scary, as far as fur coats go. I have been growing more and more obsessed and by the time this posts, there is a good chance that one of these will have found a home in [...]

40 Days and 40 Nights without Online Shopping
This year for Lent, I committed to giving up online shopping and Halo Top ice cream. The former aligns with my New Years resolution to find excitement and newness in the clothing I already have in my closet. The latter aligns with my New Years resolution to work out and eat healthier so that I [...]
