For our Thrifty 6 group of women, Shelbee decided we should style Denim Days. I know most women our age think that if you’re wearing denim, the rest of the outfit should be casual. Yet I think we get more from our closets if we use dichotomy in our looks. So I had my crew […]
Spring in Arizona is what I always imagined spring to be. Warm, flowers (on the cactus) and birds chirping. If you get my emails, you saw the fun blooms that we see on our walks. If you like positive emails with tons of different kinds of inspiration, then you need to sign up for the […]
Bettye’s prompt for this month’s Where Bloggers Live was our favorite season. And since I’m an equal opportunity season lover, I thought I’d get reflective about the seasons of your life instead.
