Somewear: St. Patty's Day

I created this look for my travel blogger friend, Jetsetter Gypsy.  Check out her story on helpful tips to pub crawling and food trucking your way through this St. Patty’s Day weekend.  I thought the look was too cute not to share on my blog.  Happy St. Patty’s Day!

Somewear: Girl Baby Shower

I’m at that age now where I’m getting more baby shower invites than wedding ones.  Ok by me; I don’t mind a good mid-day mimosa and afternoon game of “Baby Bingo.”  This past weekend I went to two showers- one for a girl and one for a boy.  I sort of think it’s fun to dress the gender when attending one of these baby bashes.  For a girl shower I say go super frilly and feminine!

stb's ebay relay: vintage furs

So, I’ve been making fun of my aunt for weeks, because she’s been in these non-stop bidding wars for these various vintage winter swing coats.  And she’s become quite successful with her bidding.  I think she’s up to about 15 now.  And, don’t get me wrong- they’re all absolutely adorable, but we live in Dallas, Texas.  The high today is 75 and it’s Feb 18.  So, anyway, I’ve never really gotten the whole ebay concept.  I know it’s been around forever and it’s a giant success, but the thought of buying someone else’s used crap really didn’t appeal to me.  Welllllllll, it didn’t appeal to me until now.  I don’t want to admit to too much, but my aunt has me hooked and I may or may not have spent the last 24 hours in a few bidding wars of my own.  And, I’ve become obsessed with something even more impractical: vintage furs. #wishilivedinaspen
