There's no way to deny that we have a lot of stuff. And the more stuff we have, the more places we have to find to shove it. Problem is, there are only so many "junk" drawers one home can have. So the question comes, why hide it? Especially those items that we use on a regular basis? Why not use glass jars? We come across them all the time, from decorative ones to empty ones with lids we can buy, to empty vases, to household items we've … [Read more...]
Detox Bath: Recovery From The Weekend
I love the weekends, but one of the things I'm not crazy about is some of my binging I might find myself doing. Allowing myself free days to be free of focus on diet goals is always nice, but not so nice when I do them consecutively! HA! Then I feel like I'm going one step forwards and two steps back. I say this only because this is something being vertically challenged I find will always be an issue in my life. If I let myself go and not … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Mommy’s Shirley Temple
Yet another week has flown by, and it's still in the 90's. Just as I was getting geared up for fall, mother nature wants to mess with us. For how long, we shall see. So I'm dealing with the heat of the weather and my hormones that like to play mind games with me as well! HA! #heatwave This week, this chic doesn't have time for fancy pants. I'm not entertaining this weekend as I'm going to be more of a sports mom on the go. So I'm creating … [Read more...]
Fall Nails On Trend
via I have never been more excited about a season with regards to style coming up ahead of us like I am THIS season. First of all, for all the younger bloggers and instagrammers out there, they won't get it like those of us 40 and over will. I mean I remember wearing the things that are coming back from the 70's and 80's and it's just CRAZY! I don't know what it is about some of these earlier decades that I love, maybe it's a sense of … [Read more...]
Fall Fashion: Ripped Jeans and The Duster
When it comes to Oklahoma weather, the one think I can say that most of us would agree on is that our weather is unpredictable. This weekend we were SUPPOSED to have a cool front come thru. Did you see it? Or did I blink? Ya. That's about how it goes. Well, I'm so excited that one of the things we're seeing lots of this fall is the duster. Call it a long flowy cardigan, a long sweater, but it's the perfect layering … [Read more...]
What’s For Dinner: The Best Pot Roast
I'm not a pot roast kinda gal, but I know it's a good meaty, hearty kinda meal, especially perfect for those cold evenings. And because I'm not a huge pot roast kinda gal, I thought I'd try this recipe a dear friend of mine shared with me. A family recipe passed down from generations, I can see why its a huge hit with their family and why it's easy as pie. If you're looking for something to make that you can put it in crockpot and forget it … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Ginger Spice
I'm trying oh so hard to pull myself away from the fruity drinks, because you all know I love my drinks sweet and fruity. And frankly, this week, I just frankly don't have time for fancy schmancy. Know what I mean? It's been one of those crazy weeks, not like there are many that AREN'T crazy, but you know. You get it. And on top of it, this weekend I have to be in two cities at once. So ya. I want a cocktail. I need a drink! HA! And … [Read more...]
Beverly Feldman: Too Much Is Not Enough
Too much is not enough. That is the motto of Beverly Feldman, shoe designer and icon of over 40 years, and more fabulous now than ever. I've worn her shoes for years, and to be quite honest, I can't part with them. My absolute favorite you can see here from this post from the summer... It's the detail in all her work that makes her shoes so special. Not only are they so comfortable, but they all have some special … [Read more...]
H&M in Oklahoma City
The long awaited day came. After hearing about this for over a year, the giant and fabulous international retail fashion superstore H&M opened it's doors just 2 days ago in Oklahoma City, and it wasn't JUST a grand opening. It was an EVENT. Beyond what I had imagined. Lines were winding all throughout the inside of Quail Springs Mall with anxious and excited fashion lovers waiting to be one of the first ones to get their hands on this … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Caramel Apple Martini
September is here and I can't help myself. Is it just me or are you just SOOOOOO ready for fall too? I know I'm jumping the gun a bit. In fact, I really should have shared a END TO SUMMER cocktail being that it's all labor day weekend, but I love the scents of fall, the warm colors of fall, the flavors of fall. So Labor Day or not, I'm kicking off fall right here baby! Let's do it, shall we? So..... Caramel apple.... mmmmmmm.... … [Read more...]
