Oh March, how I let you down. Hardly blogging at all, not giving you the attention you deserve. :) But I do have lots to share so get ready! Ok first up, Quilts Galore! I saw a post on Martha Stewart's blog about a quilt show up at the Armory on Park Avenue. I have always loved quilts as my great grandmother used to make them and now my step mom, Mama J has become quite the quilter. She made me one a few years ago and she let me pick out the fabric and pattern. It is ridiculous. I love it so much. I picked the Drunkard's Path for 2 very personal reasons. The most important being that it's Dutch, as am I. The other let's suffice it to say there were a few tough years in my past. But out of trial usually comes strength and  beauty and I have something beautiful to curl up with on a cold New York night. Take a look.




I won't do the description of the show justice so you should go here and read all about it. But take a look at the pictures because this place was stunning!

Panama Day 5-Howard

This was the most surreal hour and a half of the whole trip. We made our way out to Howard Air Force Base (which is no longer an AFB) and found our old house. Just looking at the photos I get emotional all over again. Not that I broke down crying or anything but it was really weird standing in a place that holds so many memories.  Here is me freaking out that we found it!!! Our old Street! Coffey Avenue! Exploring the old digs!  This stairwell led up to the door in the kitchen. It was a little creepy so I just filmed from where I was.  :-/ I don't do creepy. Here we are in front of 60A Coffey Ave!    That "hill" behind my mom seemed so much bigger when we lived there. I remember my dog running down it and tripping, which led to a head over heels tumble that still makes me laugh when I think of it. And that fence used to be a favorite spot for three toed sloths to hang out.  ...

Inspired

I live in an amazing city. I am constantly people watching and I find the style and the unique expression of that style so fascinating. I decided it was time to start playing with my style more. Not only in my fashion choices but in my hairstyle as well. I have always felt a little schizophrenic in my style, but I always try to have a little fun with it. As most fashionistas I wake up and decide who I want to be and how I want to express that person each and every morning. Today I am feeling low key and comfy as I run out to do some errands in the city. Take a look and let me know what you think. I will start posting daily outfits just for fun.

Coat Week-Day 7

Well I missed a few days even though I had these in the can. Ooops. Here is Day 7 of Coat Week and I saved the best for last. I think this is by far my most favorite coat. I love the color, I love the shape and details. I got it here in New York a few years ago from Banana. It was on sale and I have never regretted spending that money. I wear it all the time. It hasn't aged at all and neither has my love for it. What do you think? Coat-Banana Republic, Top-F21, Sweater-UO,Jeans-Uniglo, Boots-Wild Diva
