For our first time eating in a restaurant since March of last year, we decided to take Sean’s mom out to dinner for Mother’s Day at one of our favorite eating establishments. It felt like a big…

As you may have noticed, I have been doing good in keeping with my schedule like I intended. Right now, I am hoping that means a new post - whether outfit, travel, beauty, a video. etc. - comes…

I was back on KATU’s Afternoon Live to share styling tips on adding tie-dye to your wardrobe! Tie-dye is very on-trend right now, and something you can make at home! It is easy to make,…

I only have one Torrid Outlander Collection review left, but I’m taking a break to talk about what I wore over the weekend. My husband’s work holiday party is always in January. Knowing…

For my October segment on KATU’s Afternoon Live , I decided to share inspiration for styling one dress for work, dinner, and the weekend! Whether your shopping budget is big or small, we always…

Sometimes I’ll just see something online and know I HAVE to have it! That’s how I felt about the Her Universe Disney Jasmine Purple Maxi Dress from Torrid’s Aladdin collection. Torrid…

It’s less than a month until my big “Epic Adventure”, as I am calling it. Things are overwhelming, and I still have a ton of stuff to get done between now and then. But it will be such an…

It is still incredibly cold in my neck of the woods, and I’m longing for Spring. I need more sunshine to combat this anxiety and depression. I need decent weather for getting out in…

Today’s post is brought to you by the letter V, for Valentine’s Day and Va-va-voom! I long put off trying on the somewhat intimidating bodycon dress, but every time I try one on I surprise myself…

Today’s post is a big one with not one, but two, beautiful dresses from Kiyonna! The Gabriella Dress is a lovely jersey knit number that can be casual, work-friendly, or easily dressed up for…

As I have mentioned before, Kiyonna is such a great destination for gorgeous dresses (and tops and skirts) that flatter your curves. You can check my many previous Kiyonna review posts to see…

Hello! I hope you are all having a wonderful week. Today’s post is a big one, so I am just going to get into it. Kiyonna sent me the dress in today’s review post, the Glittering…

I’m finally back with an outfit post for y’all! We hosted Bunco this past weekend, which always means a week of cleaning and reorganizing and doing all the house chores we should have been…

Man, it has been a month! I struggled through the usual springtime depression I get having to deal with Mother’s Day and the anniversary of my father’s death. I tripped around on my…

There’s still no sign of spring here, other than some blooming flowers and trees. It is so cold and rainy, cloudy and dreary. This is all normal for the Pacific Northwest, but I am ready…

After almost a week in Seattle for Emerald City Comic Con ( which thoroughly exhausted me ), I’m back with another Kiyonna review! I chose the Weekend Wrap Dress for this month’s review because…

Fall is finally upon us! I have mixed emotions about this. Summer was so hot and oppressive and seemingly long (because of the heat, I am sure) that all I wanted was for it to be fall….

Well, it has been a tough week for anyone with a heart. I’ve found myself more prone to panic attacks this week, so I’ve tried to take it easy and go easy on myself. I often find that I…

If you read yesterday’s post , you know it is too friggin’ hot for me this week. It managed to get up to 104-ish today, which it will also be tomorrow when Sean and I head to doggy…

I like the idea of summer, but not the execution. I hate the heat. Anything over 75 starts making me super cranky. This week we have two days of 107 degree weather followed by two…
