Sean’s birthday!
Last Saturday night was Sean’s birthday party and after some pre drinks and pub grub at Disgraceland, we headed for some Karaoke in a private room. I find we are starting to do this more often for birthday’s and it is always a blast. I do find it a bit intimidating sometimes though when we go with people who play in a band for a living. Luckily our friends encourage the good, the bad and the cheesy so it was a great night. Originally I had a completely different outfit planed...

A couple of weeks ago one Saturday morning I had a visit with my hairdresser and I did something I have been thinking about doing for quite a while now.

So, after playing with it for a bit I remember seeing Audi do some amazing things with shifting dresses around and securing them with belts. I thought what the hell and after a few...

This outfit was completely built around the gorgeous scarf that I picked up last year. I am admittedly a scarf-a-holic but I normally buy cheap scarves while out thrifting, rarely spending more then $15 on any one scarf. This particular scarf, however, I had noticed it at Winners one day as I was walking out of the store and it literally stopped me in my tracks. I think it was during a time when I was trying to branch out of my red black and white rut and this silky soft gem with its blues...
