About

Welcome! I launched this blog in May of 2011 to share my enthusiasm for fashion, and to share information and inspiration for women, who like myself, struggled with their image. 

When perusing this blog you can expect to find:

• What I Wore -I am not a designer or stylist, I am just someone who believes and knows from personal experience that what we wear affects our moods and influences how people perceive us.  In the What I Wore posts, I share my own personal style (modest, classic but I have this thing for leather and lace), and tell you where you can find similar items to help you build your own wardrobe. Please note that my personal style posts are written from the perspective of someone who is  5’4″, weighs 165 lbs, wears a size 12 and who does not have an endless budget to spend.

• Beauty - My hair is relaxed, I am still dealing with adult acne and now also super sized pores. As a result, I’ve amassed a closet full of  products that I’ve experimented with and now I am ready to share.

• Fashion – The inclusion of luxe fashion was never part of the original vision for this blog. But what the hell, a girl can dream and I think we can still find inspiration from all of the fierce and fabulousness that is the high end fashion world.

• Beyond The Wardrobe – everything else, including my musings on life after 40 and the kitchen sink.
