My Fashion Haus 01.2021: What I'm Wearing When I'm Not in Sweats

My Fashion Haus 01.2021: What I’m Wearing When I’m Not in Sweats

Fashionistas and style sistas, welcome to My Fashion Haus 01.2021.  First ‘fashion’ post of the shiny new year.  And this one is a 2’fer.  Last month’s fashion haus post was an 8’fer.  A real bargain because I shared 8 different looks.  Most of them started with a monochromatic base to which I added different wraps.  […]

My Fashion Haus 12.2020: What I’m Wearing When I’m Not in Sweats

Fashionistas and style sistas, welcome to My Fashion Haus 12.2020.  Even though I haven’t shared a fashion post for some time I promise I have been wearing clothes around here.  Most days those clothes look a whole lot like sweat pants, tees and tennies but at least I’m not running ’round ‘naked as a jay […]

My Fashion Haus 10.2020: A Few Fall Looks

Style sistas, welcome to my fashion haus 10.2020.  I think it is finally time to sweep out the cobwebs in order to share a few fall looks with you.  Even though cobwebs are quite seasonal right now, we’ll hardly be able to get in the door if I don’t sweep them out first!! As you […]

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 […]

Hello

OOTDs and SIAs: My Fashion Haus 07.2020
In what felt like the blink of an eye, I have gone from full-time wife to my sweet husband, hands-on mom to my two beautiful daughters and elementary school librarian to a retired, empty nester with lots of time on my hands. Join me on my journey to rediscover who I am. Glad you are here...
