The last time I wore my Créme de la Créme sweatshirt, I dressed it up a bit. This time around I went casual and almost sported a denim suit–but not quite. My intricate braid was actually quite easy. I have a couple of daily reads, and on one of them I read about a RelaxedContinue reading Créme de la Créme Casual

Call Me Joanie
Here’s my mom, Joanie! She has amazing style: I’d like to attribute my love of clothing and fashion to her. She’d always get me to wear the zaniest get ups like the time I wore black bermudas with a button down and tie with loafer and knee highs. Admittedly I was a bit of herContinue reading Call Me Joanie
Give Me an “A!”
I am finding it surprisingly easy to hop onto the sweatshirt trend this fall. Of course when I saw this one, I had to get it, right? I mean come on! It’s got an “A” for AMAZING and AWESOME, oh and not to mention ANNIE! Heehee. Ok, it is over the top, but I loveContinue reading Give Me an “A!”
Créme de la Créme
I first saw this sweet sweatshirt on Atlantic-Pacific. Then my sister-in-law Amy sent me a pic of it telling me I had to have it–of course agreed with her! Finally, after searching off and on again, I found this version from ASOS, and they ship internationally for free! I paired this sweatshirt with this blackContinue reading Créme de la Créme

Packing 101: Three Nights [In Beijing]
I am lucky: I travel a fair amount because of what I do and because of living overseas. Internationally teaching has many perks, and I have really appreciated all the travel I’ve been able to do in the last 16+ years. Because of this, packing has become a bit of a science for me. InContinue reading Packing 101: Three Nights [In Beijing]
All Mixed Up
Wow! It’s not very often that I feel completely overwhelmed, but this last week has been hmmm, what’s the word for beyond busy? Overloaded? Utterly maximized? Cray cray? But look! I’m all mixed up, but I’m still smiling. I’m finally taking a little moment to catch my breath–in Beijing! I brought a group of 6Continue reading All Mixed Up
Fashion Fixation: Leather Track Pants
When I saw this post by Christine Cameron of My Style Pill, I knew I would need to have a pair of (faux) leather track pants this season. They’re just so rocker cool while also (probably) being super comfortable. I wanted the same exact ones seen here: the Piper Faux Leather Track Pant found atContinue reading Fashion Fixation: Leather Track Pants
