What I Actually Wore on My Birthday & Link Up On the Edge #46
On Tuesday (my actual birthday), I shared with you all my special photo shoot showcasing my Checkered Pin Up Midi Dress courtesy of DressLily (you can view that post here). But today, I am going to share what I actually wore on my birthday. I spent most of the day running around and getting ready for our Fashion Show which was last night. We had an amazing time at the Runway on the Square: Frames, Fashion, and Footwear. We featured items from Shelbee on the Edge/Shelbee’s Shoppe, EyeCrave Optics, Strut Boutique, Solitary Consignment, and Avon Shoes. The lovely Melissa of Sarissa Melissa Photography was there capturing all of our best moments…

Celebrating my Birthday with DressLily and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #23
Today is my birthday! And every year I tell myself that I am not going to get all giddy about it like a child. And every year, I fail. I can’t help myself. I get giddy. I get excited. And I tell everyone. It’s my birthday! I am so grateful to have made it through another year. I am so thankful that I am here to celebrate another birthday. And I am so blessed to have this wonderful life! So why not celebrate? *This is a sponsored post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are completely my own. For my birthday, I did a fun photo shoot in Clayton, New…

Sometimes It’s All About the Shoes…
But not this time. This time it’s about the shoes and the dress and just feeling fabulous. But first, I am going to talk about the shoes. These Leopard Printed Suede Stiletto Heel Pumps arrived a few weeks ago courtesy of FSJ Shoes and I was super excited to style them, but also a little scared! I haven’t worn a heel this high in years and I wasn’t even sure that I could walk in these babies. But let me tell you, once I put this outfit all together and slipped on these sleek and sexy shoes, I felt my level of sass elevate tenfold. It was pretty amazing. At…

Discovering Blue with DressLily & Link Up On the Edge #45
Green is my self-professed forever favorite color of all time. My eyes are a very pale shade of green and my mother always dressed me in green tones because they accentuated the color of my eyes. As a result, I have always loved green. I am always drawn to all shades of green in art, in clothing, in accessories, in nature. But for some reason, my closet is overwhelmed with the color blue, not green. So I was curious as to why this “contradiction” exists. One reason for sure is the limited availability of green apparel and accessories in the market. Even though Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2017…

My Torrid Love Affair and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #22
I am having a serious love affair. It has become quite passionate. And I have no shame in it. Seriously, Torrid, where have you been all my life? I know. I know. I just raved about Torrid like two days ago on my Weekend Wish List. But now I want to show how I have styled some of their fabulous denim. I also must warn you, I am probably going to rave about the amazing girls who run Torrid in the Salmon Run Mall…again. Because today I am spreading the kindness. Like I do every Tuesday. And yes, I usually like to focus these posts on small businesses and Torrid is…

Shelbee Got Her Groove Back & Link Up On the Edge #44
A little over a month ago, I wrote a post discussing the issue of decreased libido in my 40’s and what I was doing to deal with it. While this post probably received the least amount of comments on the actual blog itself (I attribute that to its title), it was by far my most popular blog post to date, logging the most page views I have ever had and the largest organic Facebook reach. Apparently, it is a topic that, although taboo, is still quite common and the response was overwhelming. A few weeks after I published that post and received the amazing response that I did, things started…

Girls Who Wear Glasses: EyeCrave Optics and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #21
I have been hinting here and there recently that I have invested in some fabulous new eyewear…and I couldn’t be more pleased with the final result! There’s an amazing eyewear boutique in my little town that is taking the visually-impaired community by storm…I have driven past it about a million times in the past year and a half since its doors were opened for business. Situated in the best possible spot on the corner of the town square, the outside of the building is appealing and ever so inviting. So many times I have found myself sitting at that red light that seems to last forever, gazing at the charming…

And now we are asking you to show us the items you…

Circus Vibes with Rosegal & Link Up On the Edge #43
Since my last two posts were a bit on the deeper side, I am sticking with a straight outfit post today. This is mostly because my brain gets wiped out when I get too intense. So on with it…how freaking adorable is this dress from Rosegal? *This is a sponsored post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are completely my own. If you have been following my blog, then you already know that I have a bit of an obsession lately with vintage-inspired dresses. You also know that I like to keep things on the edge. When I saw this bright mint colored dress with the big, bold stripes and…

Drop the Judgments and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #20
As I was deciding the angle I wanted to take for this week’s #SpreadTheKindness post, I stumbled upon a Facebook status of a friend which said this: The shit that I’m passionate about is not dumb. And then it hit me what I needed to write about today in an effort to continue spreading kindness in this crazy world. We all have things that we are passionate about. Each and every one of us is unique in the combination of our different passions. Some are passionate about music. Some sports and exercise and healthy eating. Some clothing and fashion. Others are passionate about art, books, and crafting. There are people…
