Traveling in England (with an ostomy!) and thinking I’m really funny… So here we are screaming through January and at the beginning of week #3 already! I want to blog more this year and focus on real life tips and less about anecdotal stories (and random postings as demonstrated with photo above). I’ll likely do [...]

Twilight Dreams

Sometimes there seems to be nothing to do, nothing going on and boredom sets in. I was in Phoenix recently and plans were altered due to rain. Rain we seemed to bring with us from Seattle. Usually this happens when I’m a little depressed and I allow myself to sit and stare. Don’t get me [...]

I love Anthropologie so much that I use their inspiring catalog as a mouse pad. I dream of swooshing through high grass fields with elegant pendants and long boots and lace trimmed coats. Comfort, coziness and coverage are all I care about as the leaves change and the air feels brisk. Wearing flowy fabrics [...]
Surf’s up

Surf’s up – are you ready to get into the water? Sometimes I wish I had a wetsuit to cover me entirely from head to toe. Hold in all my parts and pieces. Some days I float on a raft and allow my mind to wander to days of bikinis and laying for hours on [...]

Want to brighten someone’s day? Deliver a simple dinner in a pleasing package. Presentation is everything, and what could be better than a vintage inspired tote? I recommend cooking up some soup and tossing in a fresh baguette. Nothing like soul soothing soup. Check out Pretty Green where the Pangea Bag offers a fresh appeal [...]

I just got back from a whirlwind trip of three cities; Phoenix, Philadelphia and NYC. Three different weather patterns and various events to pack for. I tossed out all of my packing advise and took everything. It was ridiculous! I lugged a huge suitcase through airports and at the Philadelphia train station, I fumbled down a huge [...]

Look effortlessly stylish in this comfortable patch pocket dress from GAP When I travel, I try to use the Golden Flight Attendant Packing Rule: pack, then take half of your clothes out, then take away another half. If you’re like most travellers, you image yourself wearing all sorts of outfits you don’t venture out in [...]
