Fashion: Dusty Rose Is My Classic Color Pick

Love the color rose or a variation of dusty pink. In fact, so much I declared 2016 to be the pink year in color.  At least for me.  And now, three months left to the year, October being breast cancer awareness month, I have to say I have gone mostly pink by adding  these to my pink collection:

For The Love of Fashion and Art

It’s no news that fashion and art go hand in hand when conjuring up a spread in a magazine, the runway and naturally for over the internet. Whether it’s for every day wear, or haute couture, what sets the perfect tone and balance is the ambiance that is created. Here’s from my latest ooh-ahhh moment as I stared with my eyes wide open at these beautiful images of Gigi Hadid: {for more go here}

Fashion: Fall Wardrobe Planning Stages

After the renovation project of my space in San Francisco, I turned to my closet to get ready for the fall-winter season.

I love this time of the year for so many reasons. From the kids slowly returning to school, to the abundance of clearance sales in most any store of all things summer, to the start of the holiday season decor slowly popping up here and there.

Fashion: Travel Wear

Normally I wear pants while I travel just to be ready for any adventure while exploring a city or a town on foot. Such as climbing hillsides, stairs, sitting in a park, and all things requiring one to be careful about exposing too much if not dressed appropriately. For this year’s trip I am planning the days since we are going with two friends who have never been to Europe. So I have an idea in advance how I want to dress on particular days. Here are a few  comfy ones I’ve ordered, and hope they are true to size:
