A Week Late....... Happy New Years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blessings To All.

I would like to take this opportunity to say Happy New Years.  I hope 2014 is a very blessed year for you.  I have been rather busy this past couple of weeks. Dealing with things in my personal life beyond my control and the year end blessings that the Creator has bestowed on my family.  My husband and I received job promotions in which were not expected. Also, we had some unexpected FBI activity in our home due to a bank robbery that occurred behind my condo.  It was a scary experience and inconvenient.  However, the job promotions were the silver lining and people were not hurt.

I was reading an article the other day about the surge and popularity of blogs.  Blogs are used as a personal diary or account of the writer which can be viewed by many people all over the world.  Blogs can be a way to promote a business, personal interests, or vent out your personal feelings.  What I retained out of the article is that some blogs can promote toxic ideas and feelings as well as positivity. In my opinion, if you are going to be toxic in a public forum, just remember that toxic energy is being viewed by many people.  Ordinary people have access to a public forum which was once limited to your rich and famous and the people in the know.  With this new found freedom of being able to disseminate information to large amounts of people in a short period of time; as a blogger, I need to be mindful of what I am putting out there into the universe. I no longer want to come off as being narcissist but to be helpful to others on my journey of wisdom and understanding.

Please give me a moment to re-construct my blog and bring something more meaningful to the world besides the latest fashion.

Until next time, many, many, many blessings.

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 ...

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!

Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel

Good Evening All, This week has been rather hectic.  Dealing with family issues and job interviews at the same time.  All is good and the Creator is in charge.  I had purchased a Dooney and Bourke bag about two months ago to store my keys, ipod and identification when I workout at the gym. The bag wasn't a great choice and I end up exchanging the bag for a Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel in gray. At first I didn't really like the Janine Satchel because of the size.  I love big bags; however since I have lost over 20 pounds, big bags are starting to overwhelm my stature.  I wanted a gray bag because I wear a lot of gray outfits and have been unable to find the perfect gray bag.  There are many different shades of gray that tend to be a little taupe or have a bluish undertone.  This bag is more on the heather gray side with the beige vachetta accent. It is the perfect bag for the warmer months.  The leather reminds me of the Prada S...
