How to Dress Up Fast and Easy😎

If you find yourself pulled in many directions and only few minutes to pull yourself together, I absolutely relate. I have many interests and being a mom, a wife, daughter and a sister I like to be involved in my families affairs, be helpful, and lend a hand when I am asked to help.

As you can tell from this blog I am also a gardener, love to bake and cook, and always look for ways to make my home beautiful and comfortable. Stepping out of my house with mud on my knees or flour or pasta sauce on my shirt is absolutely real for me. It takes time to change to a clean shirt and jeans, but I often find myself with surprised texts and phone calls that pull me out of my house with few minutes left to put myself together.

Learning from experience, knowing last minute meetings and errands to run can happen without any notice I have come up with a collection of clothes and accessories that help me in minutes to look presentable without missing a beat. I use the coat closet next to the garage door to store : cardigans, jackets, a pair of boats scarves, and several pieces of jewelry. In few minutes I create a stylish look that not only covers my casual t-shirt and jeans but it also helps me leave the house with less stress and more confidence on how I arrive to my next meeting. Following my goal in life 🤣 to keep everything simple and stress free.👍😌

Leggings & stockings for this winter

What better way to keep our toes & legs warm and toasty by wearing fun and colorful leggings & stockings.

On walkways in Paris, Milan & NY eye catching leg wear was hard to miss. Colorful tights were worn by short ankle length socks, and there where rhinestones, and fishnets peeking through long flowing winter jackets.

The 50th anniversary celebrations will take place On Sept 7th at Bethesda Terrace in Central Park during New York Fashion Week. The fashion show and dinner will benefit the Central Park Conservancy. The iconic New York Park is close to Ralph Lauren’s heart ten years ago, he showed his 40th-anniversary collection there.

We have loved his timeless style, and wish Ralph Lauren to continue creating his beautiful life style for another 50 years.

We love being around the beach, and we know getting there might take some planning, but turning our living space into a beach bungalow is easily done.

What makes the 2018 floral prints different is the color and shapes all mix with images of flowers. It is not just flowers and beautiful colors on fabrics, but geometric shapes, and graphics mixed in with bold and vibrant colors.
