Eyelet

Blessings to Everyone,

I am sitting as we speak babysitting my 2 month old niece and watching Joel Osteen.  I am on the computer just surfing the Internet and thought I have not posted to my blog in a couple of weeks.  I am going to be honest:  I have to be inspired to write something I think maybe meaningful to my readers.  I initially started this blog as a vehicle to inspire others as well as others inspiring me. 

The topic of today is obeying.  Joel Osteen was speaking about being obedient to God.  My Spirit led me this morning to talk about eyelet.  I was inspired by an interview at with Christina Minasian at http://stylelikeu.com/blog/designer-with-style-christina-minasian/.  Christina is the designer behind Pencey.  One of her starts was styling for the talented Lauryn Hill.  Lauryn Hill spotted Christina working at Ralph Lauren wearing Adidas soccer shoes, Seven jeans,and a men's yellow cable sweater over an eyelet blouse.  It reminded me of how much I love eyelet.

Eyelet is a small hole with finely stitched edges, forming part of an ornamental pattern.  Eyelet seems to be the trend this Spring; however I remember it being the perfect verse to the start of Spring.  Eyelet to me is a classical style that is also retro.  I remember seeing it in early 50's and 60's fashion.  Here are a couple of my favorite pieces.

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 ...
