Chill Attire


 Warm and fuzzy inside (and out).
Even though it's officially spring a light coat or cardigan can save you from the chill in the air.
This mohair sweater is perfect to keep me warm without making me overheat! 

The shirt is a GAP menswear find, It has the state of Wyoming on it with cute little tourist spots including Bigfoot sightings! I thought it was quirky and fun, not to mention how soft it is!!! 

The pants are ReRock and are some of my best fitting jeans, I don't like for my pants to look painted on but I hate when they droop by the end of the day. I get a happy in between with these! 

Basically this is an example of cute casual! 
You can be comfortable without looking like you just woke up! 
Of course I'm a hypocrite, If I don't leave the house I change from one set of pj's to another! 
Shhh... don't tell anyone though! ;)

Never Outgrow Your Imagination


 You said it was a dried up stream bed, We said it was an army trench. 
You see red clay dirt clods, We see Grenades. 
You watch trees swaying in the distance, We watch the enemy advancing. 
You laugh at the canteen wedged in a hole carved out by little hands,
We laugh that you don't realize it is a refrigerator to keep our juice cool.
  
You admire the thistles and moss and call them such.
We admire the handiwork and beds of fairies.
You observe little holes from erosion, We observe the homes where fairies whisper and watch. 
You notice a puddle of water and we notice the fairies reflecting pool, 
everyone knows that fairies are vain. 

We in this case means me and my younger twin brothers, a year and a half age difference meant we counted on each other to stay entertained.   
This is a little look into our imagination when we were in elementary school.
I didn't make any of the stories up this is really where we played, fought and dreamed.
The craziest part about these pictures is how the canteen is still there!!!

Winter's Spring


 For me the best part of winter is the very end! 
I know what you're thinking "That's everyone's favorite part piper." 
What I really mean is that transition period, when winter melts into spring! In my little corner of the globe it's more like washing into spring due to the massive amounts of rainfall. No snow, just rain!
One appreciates the very first signs of spring much more because of the dark and dull colors winter displayed all season. 
So I guess what I'm trying to say, is thank you winter because of you the world seems fresh and new once more.

Purse Swap

What's a purse swap you might ask? Well it's pretty simple usually a group of girls and/or women bring a purse or two that they aren't crushing on as much as they used to. Then everyone swaps them! 
My mother was giving a talk at a church event, It was like a tea party minus the tea and at the end we all took turns at the pile of purses! 
That's where I got this fabulous calf hair purse. I was one of the last to choose and the two I had picked out from the beginning were still there!   
    One of the best parts about having a taste for fashion that is different from others in my area, (different doesn't mean better), Is finding something no one looks twice at!
The bracelet is Mia Luna and can be found here.
The cameo appearance was by my white German shepherd named Diesel! He just so happens to match the purse! :)
