Ballet Flats

I am a ballet flat fan.  They look nice and are comfortable and come in many shapes and sizes.  I broke my right foot a few years back and after the boot came off the only shoes that fit me were Tieks.  Granted they are expensive but they last forever and go with everything.  Have you tried Tieks?  What is your go to shoe?

Paper Goods

I own many sets of dishes, serving pieces etc.  However, when I entertain now I tend to use fancy paper plates.  I love to got to Tuesday Morning and buy up their awesome selection of paper plates, bathroom towels and cocktail napkins.  It's a fun way to change the décor and makes clean-up extremely easy.  Are you a paper plate addict like me?

Catching Up

The past few months have been hectic. Oh so hectic.  I just returned from a week long stay in Aruba. It was a magical vacation filled with sun, surf and many frozen margaritas.  I needed  to get away and Aruba was the perfect spot to unwind. It is a direct flight from Philadelphia and you even go through US customs in  Aruba.

I hate when things break. Tonight I scratched my care a teensie bit while pulling into my garage. I am unnerved by it.  Do these things bother you or I am just being silly. I rubbed most of it out but I know it's there. Ugh.

Hope you all had a good weekend.

The Hunt

I don't know about you but the harder something is to find the more I want it.  the
Swell Lilly Pulitzer bottles for Starbucks is not exception. I called eighteen Starbucks stores today and no one had the bottles.  Some  sold out, some had not received them yet and some had no idea what I was talking about.  Are you someone who is on the hunt?  Pleaseshare.

I have not blogged regularly in a long time.  I hope to get back to it on a regular basis because I miss it. I miss the readers and the friendships that I made blogging.  I realize that I need to get back in the groove. It helps me and fulfills me.  Blogging puts me in a happy place-with people who have similar interests.  I miss the preppy side of my life and the preppy people in it.

I am happy in my current life and have met many new friends in my apartment building. However they are not part of the preppy world that I was used too.  So here's to blogging on a regular basis. Do you feel that blogging connects you to a world that is not part of your day to day life??

J McLaughlin

I love J. Mclaughlin.  I buy a lot of clothes there. They are pricey but the quality is over the top.  I purchased this sweater recently at the Wayne PA store and am thrilled with it.  I purchase a few items a season at  full price and then add to my wardrobe at the sale.  Do you shop at J. McLaughlin. What's your go to store?

Great Slippers

I like slippers but I like them to look like shoes. It's a quirk of mine passed on by my late Mother.
These Birdie slippers at www.birdiesslippers.com fill the bill. They are luxurious, comfortable and stylish.  Have you tried them yet. If you haven't you must.
