It has been a while since I shared a post on what I really wore. So today, I thought I would focus on an outfit with gaucho pants. I have ended up with several pair of gaucho pants because they are easy, cool, and figure-flattering. I don’t think I am […]

If there’s one thing I know well; it’s how to dress for international travel! I have literally circled the globe countless times in the past twenty-five years. And, I must admit I’ve honed the perfect airplane outfit. I can hardly wrap my head around it…I’m leaving Manila in a few […]

Our holiday celebrations in Manila often look quite different than they do when we are in America. Probably the biggest difference is that we often go out, rather than cooking a big meal at home. This works especially well, now that’s it’s only the husband and I here at home. […]

I know some of you are really cooling off, but things are still sizzling in Manila. As much as I’d like to pull out some boots and a sweater, it’s still short sleeves for me. Black, white and red are undoubtedly my favorite color combo. I met a friend for […]

I’m from Florida, so I don’t really have a lot of current experience with the gray days of winter. But, I do remember the few winters we lived in Missouri and those years of freezing ice were enough for a lifetime…I hope anyway! We once ventured out to the local […]

Today, I’m sharing what I really wore last Tuesday to cast my vote for election 2016. I decided to wear a little blue on blue to show my patriotism….of course, I didn’t want to clash with my “I Voted” sticker. Although a lot of our friends chose early voting, we […]

Last Friday, I enjoyed one of those rare opportunities for a solo day to hang out. My husband left early that morning with his t-shirt, ball cap and a fisherman’s dream. So, I was left to my own devices…ohhh, what to do, what to do?! In all honesty, I knew […]

On a recent visit with my mom, I ventured out in an ombre linen button-down shirt for a day of shopping. I was so proud that she successfully snapped these pictures! And yes, my head and feet made it into every frame, so if you don’t see my head it’s […]

Let’s talk about how to dress for a theme park. My little family of four recently took a 4-day trip to Disney World to celebrate my daughter’s recent high school graduation. Theme parks can be especially tricky for the fashion conscious woman. I find it necessary to break a few […]

Today, I’m wearing a casual mall outfit in my favorite black, white and red color combination. Funny enough, I never really realized how often I wore this color combination until I started blogging. I guess it goes to show…when you find something that works, you should stick with it. As […]

This week I wore a clean and classic shorts outfit to the mall with some friends. Each time one of our birthdays rolls around we all get together to treat the birthday girl to lunch. We decided to go to Megamall; one of Manila’s most popular shopping destinations. Classic Shorts […]

I am sporting the skort this week for “what I really wore.” Skort No I didn’t jet off to Venice over the weekend…just a cute backdrop at a local mall! I chose this outfit for a coffee date with a friend. I’ve been so busy with packing and doing the […]
