I suppose we aren’t exactly country club material anyway

There’s nothing like a nice long weekend filled with shopping, swimming pools, and relaxed dinners out to signal the start of summer. The hubs and I started to wonder where the Little Lemondrop...

I am not nearly as sweet as this dress, it’s true.

Those poor ladies of the 1960′s. Imagine not having a choice on whether or not you are dressed as some sort of confection everyday… if that’s all that the local dress shop had. Of c...

I have Mr. Lemondrop to thank for this lovely backdrop of growing corn. He was driving by a field and decided to bring the family back to see the waving stalks. I found a pretty spiderweb while walki...

Flowers… in a field. How original.

Is there anywhere more appropriate to wear flowers than a field? So what if the flowers are about 50 years old and the field is a bit barren? Al the more reason to spruce that field up. I love this v...

I only look blue…

I am staring fixedly away from the camera in these pictures because a) I always feel goofy smiling in outfit posts and b) the sun is bright and it makes me sneeze. Though I am wearing all blue I real...

No stone unturned, or on finding fun dresses where you can

I was reading a style blog a year or so ago and saw a blogger cite KMart as the place she purchased a dress. We don’t have any KMarts here anymore, so I was intrigued and did a quick search of ...
