Basically I have bad hair right now. (A trend in our family). So while it grows out, I’ve had to get creative. This is a pretty fun updo that results in wavy curls when you take it out. Often I put freshly washed hair (just a little damp still with some root pump and/or mousse) [...] Give away – – – Give away – – – Give away – – – Give away – – - Give away – – - Give away This third pregnancy has really thrown me for a loop. I wasn’t puking every morning like with the other two, but the fatigue left me feeling like an 80 year old, [...]  In anticipation for my upcoming trip to San Francisco, I thought I’d put together some of the outfits I think I’ll be packing in my suitcase. I have my fingers crossed for good weather. Because San Francisco is on the bay they have a funny weather system and their nicest months are September, October, and [...]  I was searching for swimwear for Valiant on-line (I’m about to file a sexual discrimination lawsuit after going into several large stores and finding NOTHING in the boy’s section but about 55 good options in the girl’s section) when I ran across these. #gallery-1 {  For decades I have squeamishly but with eventual relief, chosen to go through the humiliation of having my daughters help me weed through my wardrobe. They sit on my bed while I pull out all the clothes I own and they laugh and guffaw over them as I throw them into a heap to get [...] This week I got on a hat kick. Or maybe it was a hat frenzy. It was brought about, first of all, because in over three months I hadn’t held an article of attire in my hands, considering buying it, feeling it, checking the price tag, trying it on and I felt starved for the [...] A long time ago when I was in Europe, all the women there were wearing beautiful scarves. In fact you could easily spot the American tourist for her lack of scarf. That and the sneakers. Here we are years later and scarves have caught on big time here. Andrew bought me this one at Seattle Children’s Hospital. [...] J Crew model Seeing as the very red lips with the down played eyes is all the rage this season, I set out to find the perfect red color not too blue and not too orange and perfect for all those Christmas parties you have to attend. After trying several tubes of lipstick, I found one [...]
I love this little sweater on Fox. I have to admit I took the pictures more so I could remember the sweater once he outgrows it. But I guess the little boy in the sweater turned out pretty cute too.
Oh, how I love fall especially when Eric comes home with a little treat for me- the J Crew coat I had been pining away for. Yep, he surprised me with it and it is just as beautiful as I could have hoped. The great thing about J Crew is that even the details are [...] My good friend Rachel just visited from Seattle and brought along a hostess gift to die for. She found it on her travels in California at a place called, Francesca’s Collections. As she said, horrible name, but amazing boutique! I’ve hardly taken it off my finger, except to wash dishes and photograph it. I promised to post the outfits I scored at Jinglebobs and I didn't forget, it just took me awhile. The shirt and belt I already owned but I bought the skirt. I'm into pencil skirts right now. All my A-line skirts have been remade into pencil skirts. I thought this was a fun little [...]
I can’t remember who first introduced us to Jinglebob’s Vintques, but whoever it was, I’d like to shake her hand. And buy her a drink. And maybe a really nice car too. Jinglebob’s was top on our list when Meghan and Taite came to visit the other week, Meghan was looking [...] Don’t miss out on the FREE tie for some little guy in your life! Just leave a comment on the post and you may be able to dress up a little man in your life. Chances end on Thursday. We ordered a tie from Arrayed et Adorned for Matthias's Pipe & Drum uniform. (Matt's a [...]
Anwyn kindly modeled my new branch necklace. I'm thinking this will be perfect with a white tank or t-shirt. This is my bit of spring I can wear now without freezing. I’m excited for my spring wardrobe to come out. Usually what happens is that the weather teases me for about a week, and [...] - It’s time to give the rest of your wardrobe a run for its money –

We had a perfect girl-y Saturday last week. Aileen, our friend Yvette, Freyja, and I skibbled around town to all our favorite vintage shops in Seattle looking for anything that might catch our eye.
