Fashion: Friday Fun Quiz

I proudly admit I passed this quiz with flying colors and consider myself a shoe expert 😉  And just for fun sake, or the need to take a break from whatever it is you are doing today – that is possibly stressing you out – take this quiz. Oh come on – humor me or yourself and then share – if you like where it is you stand on your own two feet (you like how I did that?”   ]] Can you believe I used to own a pair of those pink pumps in the late 90s. How about you?

Holiday Fashion: Stand Out In Your Style

I totally admire those who stand out tastefully in their fashion sense, mix-matching various blends and patterns to create an outfit that is perfectly defining of their personality. So that’s what I am attempting to do for this holiday season, picking out outfits that define who I am, without creating the wrong kind of buzz at a party or two or three – for work and play.
