White knit, black jeans, a pair of Ked's on my feet, and I'm ready to go. Dropping the kid down at school, then off for a walk, then back in the house, rooms to tidy up, beds to be made, washing to...

Asking for it?

I might as well be. Wearing white pants and white sneakers on a rainy, muddy, windy day? Yeah, right. I have never shown this denim shirt nor the sweater on the blog, but truth be said, I have been...

The long and the short of it

Don't really know what's gotten into me but lately all I think about are long skirts. I walk into a shore and am immediately drawn towards the long skirts, or if they are not in sight, I go in...

A hint of colour

So today I am quite back to normal - but still not allowed any bloody make up, argh. I don't usually go for this kind of outfit, it's so rare seeing me wearing a scarf, or this type of combo, but I...

Sunday Reflections: Dietary Constraints?

Como já sabem, passei esta semana doente com uma virose marada que me atacou tudo menos os ouvidos - literalmente, acreditem - e que obrigou o médico a pôr-me a dieta. Não, não foi uma dieta...
