The Runaways {These girls didn't have it easy, however they sure kicked butt with their music!}

{Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie from The Runaways}
Talk about being in the right place at the right time!!! These girls had a dream and it was all in the cards for them. What a crazy time to be in an all girl band! The late 1970's. WILD times. Not that now isn't. You know what I'm talking about. Life was different back then. Some of the best music was produced and will never be replicated. But now it seems like everyone is trying to replicate everyone else. Thats why I like fashion so much. Fashion lets us be our own unique rock star selves, without the drugs, which we can all do without. Fashion is our drug!
This Diane von Furstenberg Syrah Blouse is oh soooo Cherie!

 Don't you think Cherie would have worn this fabulous Mod Squad Kylie skirt by Kate Spade and these Three-Tone Platforms from Marc by Marc Jacobs??

The Necessary Black T-Shirt

I have to admit, I have not been getting dressed up much these days. I think it has something to do with just wanted to be comfortable. I have been sewing a ton of masks at The Maine Square   and it just feels better to not be confined in my clothing as I am cutting fabric and sewing. However, I do have to go out of the studio occasionally. Mostly it's to the mailbox, but sometimes it's to get more supplies and of course food. I don't mean to sound pretentious or anything, but I do think about how I look even when going out to do these quick errands. It makes me feel good to look half decent! Lately I have been opting for a simple black tee shirt and a pair of semi faded jeans. All I need to do it pop on a camel colored blazer and some ballet flats and I am good to go! Oh yeah, and I ALWAYS wear a mask when entering a public facility these days. I think it's just common courtesy with all that is going on with the corona virus.  Here are some of my all-time favori...

What Is Your Style?

Blouse, jeans and belt are from Talbots . Shoes are from Zulily . Handbag and earrings are vintage .  What is your style? Do you ask yourself this question from time to time and come up short of an answer? I am here to tell you not to worry about this. I agree with Kate Spade's quote "Your style is a work in progress." You are always evolving, and that is a very good thing! I struggle with defining my style completely. Even though I lean towards classic clothing with a bit of a preppy feel, I don't like to define myself as such. If I define myself under one particular umbrella, I feel like I stifle myself from possibly exploring something new. One thing I know for certain is that I truly believe that you cannot go wrong with classic pieces, as they are the backbone of our wardrobe. For example; you might love romantic styles with lots of lace and ruffles, but without adding a classic piece such as a blazer or a pair of jeans with your lacy/ruffly blouse, you co...

Do you think your hairstyle defines you?

JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser. Reactivate it to view this content. Don't get me wrong. I love long hair. In fact, I love long hair on both men and women. I have had long hair before. As a child I had long hair that my mother used to braid daily. I would sit in front of the TV watching Tom & Jerry while she perfectly created two long French braids on either side of my head. Although, I love my mother, I hated this moment. It hurt when she brushed out my hair. It hurt when she was braiding because she would make then so perfectly tight that I could feel my eyes pulling back. She is a perfectionist and wanted her little girl to look nice not have messy hair! Which I appreciated. However, I couldn't wait for my hair doing time to be over with so I could go play. The hair washing, the brushing, the combing, the styling was not something I enjoyed, but I did appreciate looking nice. As I got older I actually began to enjoy styling my hair. I lov...
