Reporting for Winter Combat Duty
As soon as winter really kicks in (read: after the holidays are over, and cold, wet weather has lost its jingle-bell-cozy bloom), I immediately turn to color for a pick-me-up. Although I can’t say we’re in full-blown winter here (it has actually been quite sunny and gorgeous, lately), I still find myself reaching for vibrant hues.
Playing on the Varsity Team
So. The Varsity Jacket. Also synonymous with baseball and lettermans, but not to be confused with bombers, which is really confusing when your jacket is labeled “Dugout Varsity Bomber.” Sigh.

Holi-Day-Trippin'
Happy Tuesday! So, I’m thinking that if you still have some holiday shopping to do, and can squeeze it in, I highly recommend a fun day-trip somewhere you’ve had on your mind to visit – even if your shopping is done!

On Friendsgiving and Sneaky-Dressy Looks
If you are in your 20’s and living in a city that is not your hometown, there is a very good chance that you will be participating in a Friends-giving celebration. Due to the fact that we are still bound to the constrains of a iron-clad, total black out date work schedule, Ryan and I
