How We Style Cozy Knits | January Stylish Monday Link Up
With the holidays in the rear view mirror, we have retired our Festive Outfits with a few more months of winter straight ahead that will require us to keep warm and stylish. And nothing keeps me quite as warm as cozy knits. I find knit fabrics much more comfortable than woven ones so I generally exist in head to toe knitwear of some sort…unless I wear jeans. But I only wear those when I leave the house, which is not often these days. I have actually turned into that mom that I swore I never would…I drive my kids to school in my pajamas. There I said it. And I…

Hemp Hemp Hooray! New Underwear for the New Year & Link Up On the Edge #278
As the new year has just rolled on in, it’s a great time to update your underwear. Throw out the old and bring in the new! My underwear drawer gets the least attention of any other clothing storage space in my house. I tend to grow very attached to my favorite underwear, wearing them until they become a source of embarrassment were anyone else to ever see them. Those old comfy, stretched out granny panties have served me well for a while now but it is really time for a complete underwear makeover. While I do keep some sexy lacy bits on hand for when sexy underwear are in order,…

Have a Nipply New Year: #FreeTheNipples & Link Up On the Edge #277
I don’t know if you all are getting tired of my gender equality soapbox and images of my exposed nipples, but they are my nipples and I’ll do what I like with them. My body, my choice, right? At least that’s what I have always been told, but I have learned that this is not always the case. I guess you can always make your own choices about your body, but those choices generally come with a price…sometimes higher than other times. For example, if I want to walk around topless inside my own home, I can do that without fear of judgment or legal action. And most people wouldn’t…

5 Barriers to Effective Communication & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #255
Communication is an essential skill for all of us to get through life as societal creatures. And good communication is a way to enhance our relationships with others. While it is a necessary skill and one that all humans possess on some intrinsic level, the art of good communication still continues to be a very difficult thing for many of us to learn. I suppose it all comes down to how we define communication. If you get stuck in the idea that communication is merely the speaking of words that someone else hears then you have much to learn about strong, healthy communication amongst human beings. Communication is so much…

The Fab 40’s in Holiday Colors
The theme for the Fab 40’s this month was perfectly appropriate for the season..Holiday Colors was what Ada picked for this late December post. This week that is wedged between Christmas and New Year’s Day is the best time to wear all of your last holiday outfits for the season. But when it comes to traditional holiday colors, I tend to wear them all year round because they are some of my favorite colors to wear…reds and greens and even blues, jewel tones and sparkly things will also do. Add in bits of black or white, silver or gold, and you’ve got yourself an outfit that is holiday ready but…

Good Girl Gone Plaid & Link Up On the Edge #276
“It’s Christmas Eve! It’s the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer, we smile a little easier, we cheer a little more. For a couple of hours out of the whole year, we are the people that we always hoped we would be.” Bill Murray Well, I don’t know if I have been a really good girl, but I suppose it depends on who you ask. I do try my very best to lead with love and light, but I am only human and I do fuck up a lot. But I am the first to admit it when I do and I am also…

Tits the Season to Have a Very Merry Sexmas: Celebrating My Boobs
This is a bold post, y’all. A very bold post. Although I have shared about boobs and shown off my own boobs on other virtual platforms and I talk about sex and all the other things that tend to make people uncomfortable, I have never actually placed photos that show my boobs in this space. But I thought about it some and I figured it’s really just boobs. We all have them and we all hide them and I don’t understand why because the boobless gender has no issue flaunting their flat nipples around in public whenever the weather permits it. I am pretty much over that double standard at…

My Holiday Sweater Collection & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #254
Last week, my blogging friend Marsha of Marsha in the Middle shared a really fun and festive post, The Great Christmas Sweater Debate, showcasing her beautiful collection of holiday jumpers. I found myself smiling all the way through as she described each wearable work of art and styled them all for a jolly little collection of Christmas sweater outfits. So I decided that I would put together a similar round up post of my holiday sweater collection. Maybe you will find some inspiration for your own Christmas style this year. If not, I hope you at least find yourself smiling as I did at Marsha’s post! Holiday Corgi Sweater This…
