As much as I want to be in control of the things happening right now, honestly, I can’t. I’ve been feeling tired lately following a part time nanny. I feel my day job is going to be compromised. We only have two days left to look for a replacement. Oh dear. An option is to … More Back to Basics

Nope, I haven’t gone shopping, but these were what stayed after my closet purge. Actually, the old heels I’m … More My Minimalist Style and Palette: Part 1
I love clothes since I was a teenager. Growing up in the province gave me little choice for fashion, and most of what I wear came from thrift shops. But, it doesn’t really matter where you buy it.
