top/cardi: target (old), pants: jcpenny (similar), boots: ross (similar here and here), earrings: walmart (similar), watch: no longer sold, (similar here and here – mens version) First I have to tell you about this outfit. These pants, when worn with a heel, are very forgiving and the flare at the bottom directs the eye away from your hips. (thank heavens!!) When pared with a bold bright top, long earrings, and hair pulled back it draws you toward the top. And when pared with a great pair of shoes everyone in the office says “oooh I… Read More

You look around to make sure the teacher is pointing at you and your classmates wonder why nothing is coming out of your mouth. Then you make this awkward noise that you hope no one else heard. Applying deodorant while sitting in a parked car… in a full parking lot. You gotta look around and make sure no one’s watching No dress code in college. You’d think by now,… Read More
a sweet little memory
A few weeks ago I took little man to McDonalds. It’s one of those weekly dates we used to have. On this specific day at McDonalds little man was up playing in the play place while I was people watching. If there is one thing that I can do really well it’s people watch. And I could really do it for hours, maybe it’s the social worker in me? Anyways so I was people watching and a family comes to sit down at the table next to me. It’s a grandpa and his two grandchildren…. Read More
