Camo Booties with Gooseberry Red & Link Up On the Edge #90
I have been wanting camouflage booties ever since I saw Cherie of Style Nudge showcase these Jeffrey Campbell Siren Booties in her Shoe and Tell Link Up back in November. While I still want these exact booties in the camo, I opted for this open toed version since Spring should be here soon. But since Spring weather did not arrive with the Spring Solstice, I had to wear socks with my open toed shoes. *This is not a sponsored post. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own. And after checking out the Nordstrom link to the Jeffrey Campbell booties, I saw that they come in these other amazing patterns, so…

Keeping Perspective & Link Up On the Edge #89
I want to start out by thanking all of you so much for the wonderful comments that you shared on my post about the hacking issue. As I stated in that post, I was overwhelmed by how many people stepped forward to my aid when the problem with my website surfaced. I very much wanted to share the story with you all because there is always good to be found in issues like these. And the good that I found clearly was the willingness of so many people to help out another just for the sake of being kind. And that now leads me to the topic of keeping perspective.…

It’s All About People Helping People & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #66
If you haven’t heard already, my website was hacked last week and what a freaking nightmare it was. But I have to say that by the end of the entire process, there was most definitely a silver lining to that storm cloud. So let me tell you the story… A few weeks ago, I noticed that every time I tried to log into my WordPress, it was telling me that my password was incorrect. So I would change the password and get back to work. Then the next time I attempted to log in with my new password, I would get the failed log in error due to an incorrect…

Inspired by Not Dead Yet Style & Link Up On the Edge #85
So I got this dress from EvaTrends and when I first put it on, I did not look like the model in the product images. Not even close. In reality, I suppose I did not actually expect that I would look anything like the model but I guess I was just kind of hoping I would be so cute. I wasn’t. So I took it off and hung it at the front of my closet waiting for inspiration to hit. *This is a sponsored post. This dress was provided to me for purposes of this blog post.

Inspired by Pink Sole & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #62
Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you all had the most amazing weekend! We spent Saturday evening with great friends, eating, drinking, and laughing until snorts were heard! Yeah, that would have been me. I might have even peed my pants a little. And nearly sprayed wine out of my mouth when an unexpected guffaw caught me off guard. But hey, if you can’t be ridiculous in front of your closest friends, what’s the point really? *This is a sponsored post. This necklace was provided to me for purposes of this post.

Fabulous Link Ups Where I Link Up & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #61
Blog parties and link ups are a great way to network within the blogging community. They are a wonderful avenue to discovering amazing blogs that you may not otherwise have found in the seemingly endless ocean of blogs on the internet. As of 2017, it was estimated that there are over 440 million blogs worldwide. So how in the world do you tap into your favorites in a niche that is interesting and beneficial to you? *This is not a sponsored post. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.

A Plea to Mother Nature & Link Up On the Edge #81
Dear Mother Nature, I am not entirely sure who has wronged you so, but you are fighting back with a vengeance and I am merely getting caught in the cross fire of your mad flinging of snow. I just wanted to let you know that I am sorry for whatever has made you so inexplicably angry. I also want to say that you sure are beautiful when you’re pissed. But how much prettier you would be if you just calmed down a little and let go of whatever grudge you are holding. *This is a sponsored post. This scarf was provided to me by DressLily for purposes of this post.…

The Struggle is Real & Link Up On the Edge #80
First, before I talk about the struggle, I want to introduce you all to Sherry of The Life of the Party who is co-hosting the link up with me today. If you don’t know Sherry, here is a brief introduction in her own words. “I started The Life of the Party as a way to document past parties for my children, family and close friends and it’s since morphed into a fashion and interior design and healthy lifestyle blog. I’m very passionate about design and find my brain constantly swimming with ideas of new and interesting color combinations and mixing of fabric textures and patterns. This blog has turned my passion…
