Fetishes + What to Wear on a Role Play Date & Link Up On the Edge #269
Since I have been sharing my sexy adventures lately and receiving some wonderfully positive and entertaining feedback, I figured I would just keep on going with this topic for today. But before we get to the business of what is a role play date and what to wear to one, I want to briefly discuss fetishes. I have long been fascinated by sexual fetishes. So fascinated, in fact, that I wrote my Honors Philosophy thesis on the topic of voyeurism back in 1995. I wanted to know why people have fetishes, what makes certain things become a sexual fetish, is it a natural human response to some trigger to have…

What to Wear on a Girl Date: Styling My New White Cowgirl Boots
A few weeks ago I went on a girl date. My very first girl date actually. I have long had an interest in dating women but fear of judgment and fear of women prevented me from moving forward into this area of our open polyamorous lifestyle. A topic that routinely surfaces in my counseling sessions is my fears. Through the work I do in these sessions and on my own, I have finally come to a place where I no longer fear the judgments of others. People have been judging me for my entire life and I am still here living my truth as loudly and visibly I can. It…

Book Review: The Raven Witch Saga by SG Turner & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #247
I might be the slowest reader on the planet, but I finally buried my face in this amazingly whimsical and captivating tale of fantastical creatures who are navigating their way through a very scary magical world that exists right in the midst of the land of the humans they are trying to protect. The Raven Witch Saga is a three book series written by none other than my dear friend Suzy Turner of The Grey Brunette. Some of you may already know Suzy for her creatively eclectic personal style. She makes an appearance on my blog each month as a member of The Fab 40’s and she never fails to…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Maxi Skirts or Dresses
We had so much fun last month with all of the creative Halloween costumes that were shared, but now it’s time to get back to the basics. This month’s theme for The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book should be easy enough to prompt lots of participation. If you wear long skirts or dresses, then won’t you send us a photo or two to be featured in a big round up of fabulous maxi styles! I have always thought of myself as a style chameleon of sorts as my personal fashion choices never fit neatly into one style genre. There really aren’t very many things in fashion that I don’t love and maxi…

What Would Nancy Wear? & Link Up On the Edge #268
Back in the beginning of September, I had written a guest style post for my dear friend Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style while she was on holiday. I wanted to pay homage to my sweet friend and so during my outfit creation process I kept asking myself the question, “What Would Nancy Wear?” and that quickly became the post title for her blog. In that post, I shared the story of how Nancy and I first became acquainted in the world of blogging, how we began our multiple collaboration projects, and how we have developed a very strong and meaningful friendship despite the 3,600 mile (5,800 km) distance between us.…

The Magnificent 8 in Versatile Vest Styles
Vests have a been a garment that have sort of confused me for my most of my life. However, I have always had a few in my closet dating back to early childhood when I proudly donned a black zipper hoodie layered beneath a denim vest in perfect Chachi Arcola style. I might have even tied a red bandana around my thigh back in those days! I also recall a favorite outfit of mine from elementary school that consisted of olive green corduroy kickers with matching fair aisle socks that pulled up to my knees and were snuggly secured by the elastic band of the knickers just below my kneecaps.…

Over the Rainbow Halloween Costumes & Your Own Twist Link Up #37
It is almost time for the spookiest day of the year as I am sure you know because your social media feeds are probably overflowing with all things Halloween. While many people may not celebrate Halloween, I am beginning to view it as one last easy holiday before the craze of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s celebrations is upon us. I do have to credit my kids in part for helping me to become more enthusiastic about this seemingly pointless holiday. But I also have to credit sweet Monica as well. Because before Monica prompted me to join her with my Halloween costume, I had only ever shared two Halloween…
