Today's attire
Summer Evening Walk
Things I love about Summer.… Long days, garden roses, evening walks, lovely conversations about nothing. Bike rides in the forest. Only a 15 minute train ride from Frankfurt proper, my home feels like it’s in the countryside, and it’s felt in my style, taking a softer approach to attire. Relaxed trousers are certainly popping [...]
Fire Engine Red
Every now and then, I’ll find a lonely relic of times past. Like this old German firetruck rusting in the woods. We were riding our bikes pretty much all day in the forest, and I hadn’t really put much thought into what I was wearing, except maybe to keep from melting and rolling up my [...]
A Walk in The Forest
In my adult life, I have always lived in cities. The hustle and bustle the street car noise. Concrete. Now, I live in a wooded neighborhood, just meters from the forest. It’s so lovely to be able to go for a run and to hear the birds chirping, to look above to the transparent green [...]
The Impossible, Yet Perfect Leather Dress
I have a knack for buying things out of season.
Swimsuits in December, boots in August, necessity has little to do with what I tend to covet. Last Saturday I found the perfect leather dress at the flea market. It is just gorgeous, with the zip sleeves that also roll up. I’ve never seen anything like [...]
Today’s Attire: Comfort, Stripes & Lace
It’s been a while since I’ve worn high heels on a daily basis. A year ago, I was walking around the streets of San Francisco one of my many pairs of heels, no problem. Since my lifestyle has changed, I’m rarely in need of heels, and I’m out of practice. Last week, I went out [...]
Today’s Attire: Play
After writing yesterday’s post about Agathe, I decided it was time to go out and shop. It’s been a long time since I’ve been in an actual shop with the intention to buy given my current financial situation, but I thought was in dire need of accessories so shopping was ok. I know I’ve [...]
Today’s Attire: Frenchie
Things to write on my gratitude list today… Boyfriend wears Filippa K. He’s very tall and thin like those male model boyish looking men… which is very nice methinks. If Susie Bubble can borrow from her boyfriend… why can’t I? It’s only natural, being as his bureau is closer to the bed than mine…
I [...]
Today’s Attire: Maxed Out
Today is one of those perfect days. I finally pulled out this black cotton jersey maxi dress I bought last year. Rocky says I’m ready for the opera, but I keep telling him, it’s cotton jersey, so it’s more like I’m wearing a giant t-shirt.
Yesterday I commented on a The Fashion-y Blog saying that I [...]
Today’s Attire: Floral Details
It’s beginning to feel like summer. The long warm days and the beautiful trees really inspire me to wear florals… It’s been hard, to tell the truth to wear florals comfortably without feeling too much like a country lady, I don’t quite have the magnetic force of Anouk in her floral dress that inspires [...]
Today’s Attire : Time Warp
I’ve always had a fondness for Hammer Pants… It was huge in the late 80’s early 90’s… and in a way, they are the bell bottoms of my generation. The idea of actually wearing them again, was strange. Had I finally reached the age when a hot new trend came and went and is now [...]
