So named because of the forest green of this dress and the chambray top over it, of course. Not because it's particularly appropriate for frolicking in a forest (though I don't think it'd fare too badly). This is what I wore on Monday. It was a day for errands,...
Linking up for the Tuesday 10 with Lena! This week's theme was pet peeves, so here are 10 things that tick me off: Bad drivers. Particularly people who don't use their turn signals but still expect to be let into my lane, and people who cut me off. Having a client...
This originally appeared as a guest post over on The Observant Turtle. There comes a point in most long-term relationships where the romance starts to fade. Not the love; one would hope if you're sticking around there's no problem on the love front. But...
The Witch's Daughter by Paula Brackston In Wessex, England in 1628, Bess Hawksmith's mother is tried and hung as a witch. Poor and alone in the world, the only hope Bess has of surviving the lynch mob that will focus on her next is to become a witch herself. That...
Hello lovelies! I hope your respective weeks are going well. Mine definitely is. That cold front that came through over the weekend had me worried, but then today it was back in the 80's. Whew! I'm not quite ready for bundling up yet. We've moved back to A/C...
Fun video of the week: You've probably all seen the Gangnam Style music video that's been making the rounds of the internet world. Well, a little while ago Samsung (a Korean-based company, remember) had an internal team-building competition to see which Samsung branch...
Linking up with Alyx. 1. Sometimes I will bookmark an item in a 'Shopping' folder in my bookmarks instead of pinning to Pinterest because I don't want anyone else to snatch it up before I can. 2. I'm really glad Elena got eliminated from Project Runway. She was...
1. La Fresh Eco Beauty Acetone-Free Nail Polish Remover. Yeah, quite a mouthful, huh? I got a sample of these in my latest Birchbox. The directions said simply "Gently press the pad into each nail, and watch your chipped polish dissolve". I was skeptical. The pad is...
More owls and long-sleeved items are up in the shop! A bunch more to come in the next week. I'm on a printing roll. 🙂
Just because it's still 85 degrees here during the day doesn't mean I can't sartorially pretend it's fall. Hence my sweater (though short-sleeved) and scarf (though non-warm-making). This is my first venture into fashion scarf wearing. Prior to this, the only...
