OOTDs and SIAs: My Fashion Haus 07.2020

Happy Thursday, fashionistas & welcome to my fashion haus 07.2020, a round up of my latest OOTDs and SIA interpretations. It has been hotter than blue blazes in far west Texas so this summer I’ve gotten over my inhibition about wearing shorts. Or maybe I’m just hotter than I am self-conscious!! Whatever the case, most […]

Alphabet Edition: My Fashion Haus 06.2020

Fashionistas, thanks for joining me for this alphabet edition of my fashion haus 06.2020. It’s been a hot minute since I last opened my fashion haus. To be exact, April. When I shared this poppy edition. For today’s post, had to chase out the spiders with the broom then sweep out the spider webs before […]

A Handful of Covid-19 Quarantine Looks, 04.2020

Fashionista friends, pulling off the yoga pants just long enough to share a handful of Covid-19 quarantine looks. I’ve shared several times that I don’t see a whole lot of point in getting dressed in much more than active wear these long days at home. The kitties haven’t complained yet and at least we are […]

Poppy Edition: My Fashion Haus 04.2020

Fashionistas and friends, I am back in the wildflowers again with this Poppy Edition of My Fashion Haus 04.2020. If you are about fed up with posts about and picture of poppies, you’ll be glad to know they have about faded for the year. But while they were still blooming in abundance, I took full advantage.

What I’m Wearing 01.2020

Sweet friends and fashionistas, opening my fashion haus to share what I’m wearing 01.2020. Maybe you remember that one of my mental health goals for Wellness Weekend 2020, #WW2020, is: get dressed every day (not active wear), wear a dress or skirt to church. Figured by making ‘getting dressed’ a wellness goal, I would be more […]

OOTDs and SIAs: My Fashion Haus 07.2020

Happy Monday, 10 superstitions, wives' tales and f Happy Monday, 10 superstitions, wives' tales and family expressions...that's the prompt for October's 10 on the 10th blog post.  I grew up on a healthy diet of my mom's Ozark Mountains colloquialisms and could probably, should probably dedicate a post just to those.  Never realized until I went to college how much of my own speech reflected hers.
