Going Deep – Keeping Krisp In A Keyhole Blouse

by Melinda
There’s something about winter weather that makes me do one of two things: Get all cozied up, or stay crisp in winter whites. I’m digging this Club Monaco keyhole blouse for a few reasons. Yeah it’s crisp and white, but the lines are clean and billowy allowing me to style it in a bunch of different ways. […]

Truth. Yes, lot’s of people love stripes, but on my recent trip to Australia there is no other nation on the planet that loves stripes more than the Australians. I know, I know, we are conditioned to believe It MUST be the French, but perhaps that is not so. Is it former Penal Colony fashion […]

I believe in a certain rule; If you wear one thing over sized, then you must wear something that fits to balance it out. In the whole yin and yang belief system opposites attract and one cannot live without the other, and that’s personally how to wear oversized sweaters in my belief. It’s also visually appealing […]

OK so I have never been to Texas, and admittedly, I have no idea what to expect. I’m supposed to not mess with Texas, but then I thought screw that! I like to down play dressing now and then, so I’m kinda taking the grungy modern cowboy approach. I love accessories that remind me of a place. […]

I find that ankle booties elongate the foot, and adds length to an outfit. Personally I wear pointed toe anything, […]

Growing up in Hong Kong, we would once or twice a year go to the bird market. A place where you could get any exotic bird, but mainly you went for the bird cage, and the sweet bird songs. I would stare at the antique Chinese bird cages, and watch the old locals tend to their […]

One of the best road trips I have ever taken was through the Scottish Highlands. The four of us traveled and traversed the lush highlands,passing relics of ancient castles along the way. Some of the castles remains were pretty intact, others just a wall here and there. The castles that were still intact, we would […]
