Bring it on 2016
Did you write some resolutions yet? I sure have! This year I bought a Fukien Bonsai tree from ProFlowers to remind me of #freshbeginnings. In particular, this Fukien Bonsai tree with the curved trunk represents steadiness through change. It is the perfect metaphor as we go forward in #2016 to stay strong against the curves life gives us on …
Black and White
You thought I was gone forever, didn’t you?! Well, I had BIG plans to blog like a champ while I was off from work (teaching), but you know what happens when you get two weeks off? You spend time with family and sleep and eat and watch the show Reign on Netflix instead. Christmas …
Holiday Party Ready
Jack Frost has certainly been nipping at our nose this year! After having a whopping ZERO snow for the first few weeks of winter, we were finally hit with the big wowza of a snowdrift on December 14th. It is said that it snowed about 20 inches that day. It has been on and of …
The Psychology of Color featuring Victoria Emerson
This past weekend, I had the chance to experience the beautiful outdoors with my good friend Brianna (from the blog and YouTube City Fashion Girl).

Plaid for the Holiday with Shabby Apple
One reason why I despise winter? Getting pale! Back in high school, and even college, I went to tanning beds a ton. Plus, I lived in California until the end of my junior year (of high school), so I always felt tan. Now that so many people have come forward about their skin cancer linked …
How to Stay Warm on Game Day with NFL Shop
Even though you can’t count me in with the group of NFL fans that camp outside the stadium nowadays, I definitely did a couple years ago for a couple college games. When I was younger, I often spent time with my family, both close and extended, having potlucks and Sunday night football parties. Everyone would …

In My (faux) Suede Jacket
Just a little bit Western, and a touch of bohemian. I’m channeling my inner model to try and look an ounce as cool as Jenna Pietersen in this Western shoot (be warned, <—-this link is very fashion and contains one risque photo). Since it took me awhile to find the perfect (faux) suede jacket, I …
