Land's End Canvas Women's Handknit Cashmere Aran Sweater

Good Morning All.

Since I have been laid off from my job, I have been finding myself awakening around 3AM in the morning to get on the computer.  My Intenet surfing consists of checking emails for job prospects, searching for jobs on job engines, and window shopping.  I am very consistent to the types of websites I visit:  Landsend, Dooney and Bouke, Barneys, and so on.  Anyways, I am so excited that a sweater I have been eyeing has went on sale.  I asked the hubby can I purchase this sweater since I am now unemployed and must conserve cash.  He said yes.  Yippie for me.  The sweater was originally $350 now down to $200 for a limited time. On top of that, I found a free shipping coupon.  I hope this sweater is all that and a bag of chips when I receive it.  Patience is a viture.

    Thank you so much Jasmine. I only pay full-price for merchandise that I can't get on sale like a Louis Vuitton or Hermes. Even with Hermes with their prices being above my means, I try to find mechandise in co-signment shops. Who says that you can't enjoy fashion and be broke?

Is Blogging Dead?

Hello To All. I have been missing in action from this blog since 2015.  I am the type of person that gets bored with things quite quickly.  I have a question for you today.  Is blogging dead?  There are millions of blogs out there covering everything from fashion, food, homes, wine, and etc.  With the fashion piece, Instagram has taken over the need to post a  blog about what a person is wearing and what the audience should buy. However, is it quite necessary to share with the world everything that a person does in their life. I am signing off with this open ended question; should you leave things to the  imagination?  Ponder on that question; will you. Until next time, many, many, many, blessings!

Happy New Years 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                               . Blessings to All,  It has been a long time coming for this post. The last time I blogged was back in May 2014.  Fast forward to January 1, 2015.  I am very happy to see another year.  I am so glad that 2014 is in the past.  Today is a time to look forward to new opportunities.  On my agenda this year is to get better and wiser.  I am on the path of eliminating baggage out of my life. I am very much interested in the minimalist movement.  A minimalist voluntarily simplifies their life.  It can include buying less things, reducing consumption, working less, and even eliminating toxic things from your life.  I always admired the Japanese culture.  They practice minimalism; however some may argue that is due ...

Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue

Good Morning All, I have been enjoying this nice Chicago weather we have.  It has been around 70-80 degrees for almost two weeks now.  It is kind of creepy.  I went to Culver's yesterday to get one of my favorite treats, a three scoop lemon Ice and while in the drive through I see a big bumblebee.  Spring is definitely in the air.  I am waiting for the ball to drop.  Will we be getting 6 inches of snow in May?  Anyways, I got a new bag.  Well, I exchanged a bag that I had bought about two months ago for this bag.  It is the Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue.  I had purchased this bag in white/tan for the spring and had a change of heart.  I like white bags; however, they don't wear well.  Eventually they will get some kind of color transfer from denim or they will yellow overtime. I have a Chloe and Marc Jacobs bag that did that.  Well, the bag in my opinion is not royal blue in person.  It is ...
