Bordeaux, Bordeaux, Bordeaux

Greetings Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took a week off to gather my thoughts and post something meaningful. As I mentioned, I am random. However, I don't like to post anything just for the sake of posting things. I have Fall on the brains. It seems like it has been Summer forever. You know in Chicago, Winter is coming. I am wanting it now more than anything because of my allergies and for the fact it has been hot for too long. Bordeaux has been on the brains. Bordeaux is defined as the the port city in southwestern France which is known for its wine of the same name. Bordeaux to me at this time is the color that is attributed to the wine. For Fall 2012, bordeaux is the color. There are other colors that belong to the bordeaux family known as wine, oxblood, or claret to name a few. Above are some of my finds to celebrate the oncoming season. I love reds normally and have yet to love, love the darker reds until recently. The floor sets in Ann Taylor remind me of the transition from Summer to Fall. I hope you enjoy my selections along with a warm glass of claret or bordeaux.

Many, many, many blessings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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 ...
