Dress of Many Colors & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #298
This dress of many colors needed many photos to showcase how fun it is and how happy it makes me. Don’t you just love it when an outfit has mood boosting powers? It also reminds me of my favorite Dolly Parton song, Coat of Many Colors. It seems my outfits have been inspiring my music choices recently. My last outfit gave me James Taylor’s Copperline vibes and now I am tuning into Dolly! Coat of Many Colors by Dolly Parton Back through the years I go wonderin' once again Back to the seasons of my youth I recall a box of rags that someone gave us And how my momma…

Down on Copperline & Link Up On the Edge #317
I am not sure if the title of this post caught your attention or not, but I really hope it didn’t pique your interest very much. I chose it randomly as I was loading these images into WordPress and James Taylor’s song Copperline was running through my head like an annoying earworm. A very annoying earworm, indeed, because despite how much I love James Taylor’s music, Copperline is probably one of my least favorite songs of his. But it does apparently have a very catchy tune because the damn thing is still earworming me a day later. Even though this is not a favorite JT song of mine, the lyrics…

We Heart Halloween (Tim Burton Style) & Your Own Twist Link Up #49
Four years ago, Monica and I launched this new fun style challenge series which began with our Halloween looks. Every year since 2018 our October theme has been Halloween costumes, making this our fifth Halloween collaboration. In that very first Your Own Twist post, we both styled our Halloween looks separately without consulting one another and ended up both creating fashion icon costumes. I portrayed Iris Apfel while Monica went with Audrey Hepburn. For our 2019 Halloween collaboration, we again created our looks separately and both ended up wearing giant unicorn heads. That coincidence really made us laugh! The following year in 2020, our looks were not as in sync…

Transition & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #297
Merriam-Webster defines transition as “a change or shift from one state, subject, place, etc. to another.” The Cambridge English Dictionary defines it as “the process of changing, or a change from one form or condition to another.” And Dictionary.com describes transition as “movement, passage, or change from one position, state, stage, subject, concept, etc., to another.” These seem like simple enough definitions to explain a rather profound concept that permeates the entire human experience. Life often seems like it is an endless series of transitions. We are constantly changing from one state to another on the most basic levels as well as on the deepest levels of our existence. We learn from each experience whether it was a planned…
