Tasty | Lamb, Pumpkin & Mint Salad With Dukkah

With the appearance of warm weather, I am all about salad. Salad, salad and more salad. But, sometimes, salad needs to be hearty if for no other reason than that one's husband isn't such a fan of...

OMELET

Inspire Monday | We Can't Direct The Wind

Yeah. I'm quoting Dolly Parton. That's because the woman is a powerhouse. She's strong, sassy and independent and doesn't seem to give two hoots about the fact that people think she's a caricature...

Sunday Splurge | Coral & Tan

If you've read this blog for more than about 3.4 seconds, you'll be well aware that I like a good bargain. Actually, scratch that, I love a good bargain. However, that doesn't mean I don't like a...

Hair | Chop, Chop

So...I think I want to cut my hair off. And go back to blonde. I know, I blog about all the serious stuff. But really, I am so bored of having long hair. I find it a pain to maintain and I am not...

Five Ways | Floral Skirt

I love floral...everything. I just think floral prints are adorable and this amazing skirt from Target is no different - classic cut in an unexpected pattern with lots of colour options makes for...

Addressing The Holes In My Closet

Radio silence, much? I have been struck down with a hideous flu. It started last Tuesday and continues to today. It ended up on my chest and given that I am a severe asthmatic this wasn't ideal....

What I Wore | Man Style & The Necklace Winner!

I love a good button down, it's really no secret. I do find that they're often too short for that 'I just stole my lover's shirt and popped it on because I am that chic'. At least on me, anyway. So...

Wishlist Wednesday | Spring Fling

I am so over Winter, you guys. I had no idea that California could get so cold! So this Wednesday I am wishing for all things Spring. I am so pleased to see that floral pant fabulousness continues...

What I Wore | Stripes & Vest

Wow, so yesterday was a little bit of a bummer on the blog content front, wasn't it? I grappled (or thought for a few minutes at least...) with how much I wanted to share on the blog and decided...

Inspire Monday | Nature

Truth Bomb: I feel like this is my life right now. I am a procrastinator supreme, I get myself down in the doldrums and let myself stay there far too easily, and then I just give in to the blues...

What I Wore | Shearling, Baby

I love a good shearling vest. Truth be told, this one is faux shearling. I got is back in Sydney at K-Mart for $20. Yeah, I know, I am awesome. Anyhow, through the Australian winter I wore it lots...

A Weekend In The Mountains

We spent the Long Weekend having a Minimoon exploring Lake Tahoe and the Californian Mountains. It was so beautiful up there - we loved every minute of it! We actually stayed in Reno because we...

What I Wore | Stripes + Polka Dots

A very long-overdue outfit post! These make me super nervous because I don't have a lot of self-love on the body front while I lose all that back injury/pain meds weight but I like the idea of...

Happy Weekend & 100 Posts

First of all, this is my 100th post! Oh my goodness - when you think that this blog was started well over a year ago, it goes to show that my dedication to blogging definitely waxes and wanes. I...

Mrs BB.

So, I have a little bit of news. I'm a Mrs.! Sequin Top - J Crew | Pearl Necklace - J Crew | Gardenia Pins - Chanel We talked about it, bought a license, and jumped right in! It was a grand day...

101 in 1001

Every new year, I start with a bunch of resolutions. Many of them get forgotten after January 5 or so. Some get remembered. But there is something about resolutions that don't sit that well with...

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, lovers! I hope you all had a fab night. We spent the night in with the puppy with Mexican, James Bond and Dexter and had many a laugh chilling out on the couch. Perfection! I took a...

Inspire Monday | What If

I am not a risk taker. Yes, I can be a 'poke my head in the sand and ignore hard stuff'er but risk taker I rarely am. I am a natural worrier. A constant negative odds predictor. It is how I am hard...
