Style Consultation aka Fun with Friends!

A fun afternoon with a friend turned into a fun afternoon with lots of friends!

We’d made an appointment when she sent out the text for help – she has four events coming up that she needs outfits for…

This is one of the things I LOVE to do…

And one of my God-given talents (which seems so minor in the realm of talents, but I have fun with it anyway)…

Helping people find the perfect outfit, or a whole new wardrobe, or a few things to add to their wardrobe!

We have a great time, trying things that are their style…things that are slightly beyond their style and even a few things that are way out there!

Needless to say there are more than a few giggles that happen. We may even get a little loud and rammy…but that’s ok…we definitely have fun! Read more

79 Cousins…

Seriously,

I have 79 cousins.

I know that sounds a little insane, but it’s true!

My Mom was from a family of 17 kids…and most of the cousins are from there – a whopping 63 of them! My Dad came from a family of 6 kids – a mere 16 cousins from there. Add in the 6 kids in my family and I think we officially define the term “brood”. Read more

Give a little whistle, Whoo-e-oo!

Things I have learned…

To trust my heart…About 3 months ago a friend of mine brought me her grandfather’s coat and asked if it would sell in our shop…I looked at it and fell in love, feeling that somehow it reminded me of my Dad. When I did my walk down memory lane a few days ago, I found a picture of my brother and I hugging my Dad when he got home from work…and he was wearing the exact same coat. (Well he had the same type of coat, not the exact same coat…just to clarify!) I never had brought the coat to the store…I couldn’t seem to part with it and now I know why. It’ll be in my possession from now on…I’ve even worn it a few times…what a fun memory to have. Read more

live imperfectly with great delight

I read this saying on a Curly Girl card today that a friend sent to me and I thought – HOW PERFECT!

Live imperfectly…let’s decode this…(yes I’ve been watching way too many murder mystery shows – blame it on NCIS).

Live imperfectly…

Go through every day striving to live as Jesus would want us to live…be kind, help your fellow man (or animal), work hard, love each other, find joy, be grateful…but remember you’re human. Read more
