Heroes come in so many forms. My outfit today reminds me of a hero I have admired my entire life. And, while the roles she played were fictional characters, those roles had a huge impact on my life. Plus, she was a real, flesh-and-blood human hero. Mary Tyler Moore was never the kind of hero …
Blessings and Glad Tidings to you, my dear readers. Now let’s get groovy. This dress is a handmade jobbie I found on eBay last year. It’s a simple shift dress that dates back to the 1960s. The gray color, the cream cuffs, and the modest long sleeves give it a Reverend Mother feel. I envision …
In three days, Hubby and I will return to Seattle after just over a month in Arizona. Even though we love visiting family and friends here, I am itching to return to get back into my regular routine. While I wait, my impatience pushes me to create something anyway. That’s how my last post came …
Audrey Hepburn was, without a doubt, one of the most iconic fashionistas of the 20th Century. Even today, nearly 57 years after the premier of Breakfast at Tiffany’s, most of us can place the dress she wore in the movie, even if it’s shown on the back of a rainbow-colored zebra.

Maggie from Blue Hour Photography hung out with us that day and captured all the …

Shopping the Indies on 1st took Amy from Sassafras and I to six independent shops in the historic neighborhood of Belltown in Seattle. I wrote previously of two of those shops–the Federal Army & Navy Surplus and Sell Your Sole Consignment. And before the week is out, I’ll have even more about the other places …
Yesterday’s post featured many of the surprising fashion gems Amy from Sassafras and I uncovered at the Federal Army Navy Surplus store in Seattle. It came as less of a surprise that a boutique shop like Sell Your Sole Consignment has all kinds of gems lining the walls. The surprise here is when I looked …
The Federal Army & Navy Surplus is a store I pass by often in my walks around Seattle. It’s just a couple of blocks away from the famous Pike Place Market and a stone’s throw from Sassafras, the boutique that started my love affair with Seattle’s local fashion scene. Their store windows always showcase interesting …
