The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Velvet & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #731
Welcome to November’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book featuring Velvet. I love it. Nancy hates it. Considering the very small number of submissions this month, it seems like only a few folks are in the “love velvet” camp with me. It is a fabric that I have always adored and probably always will. I especially appreciate the luxuriousness of velvet during the holiday season. Thank you to all who have shared their velvet looks with us for this round. We appreciate you! The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book is a monthly series hosted by Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style and myself. Every month, we invite you to share a photo or two of your Good (or Bad) Buy items that fit…

A Very Bunny Halloween & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #729
We had the best Halloween ever! As we were assembling our Christmas tree ghost at the last minute, my sister called to chat. She lives in Pennsylvania (nearly 300 miles from me) and her town had their trick-or-treat night last Friday, which really disappointed her. But she knows how much fun we always have here on Halloween so she calls in to join the festivities. When she called this time, I put the phone on speaker because I needed my hands free to attach the ghost’s eyes and mouth. My sis asked what I was doing, I told her I was putting up my ghost tree, and she asked if…
