  • Bag Scarves–How cute are these?!

    When I went to Indianapolis for the annual reunion of Scentsy Family Consultants, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Grace Adele. Last year, in Las Vegas, this brand was launched and the excitement over it filled the room–it could also have been the free bag and accessories! This year, we learned that 80% of…

  • Color Block Your Socks Off!

    Summer is heating up and with it comes the idea that you might have time to try certain things you haven’t yet. For instance, maybe you’ll make a dent in that pile of books you’d like to read or finally take the road trip you’ve not made. For some, it will be as simple as…

  • Style Made Easy

        I stumbled upon this two-and-a-half minute video showcasing the Grace Adele Style System and loved it! Demonstrates exactly why I love this product and why so many people have been visiting my consultant website to learn more. So looking forward to building my teams across all Scentsy Family brands in 2013. It is just…

  • Next Level Neutrals

    Every few seasons,  you’ll hear “X is the new black” where X is the latest and greatest color that everyone clamors to don. I think we all know, however, that black never loses its top status as a go-to hue. Black makes a strong statement, but can be equally feminine. That’s one thing I love…

  • Why Let Winter Wear Be Boring?

    I spent all Saturday and most of Sunday at an outdoor soccer tourney for my youngest. As I sat there in the whipping, biting wind being pelted by sleet and praying for even a glimpse of the sun, I reconsidered my answer to the proverbial, “Would you rather be hot or cold?” question. I always…

  • Fun and Fierce Spectator

    I attend a ton of sporting events, not the least of which are my daughter’s soccer games. Many times, these game days start somewhere less ‘sporty’ or end in a restaurant for a post-game meal. It’s important to be comfortable, but also to put a best foot forward. Let’s not pretend that kids can’t be…

  • Sassy Librarians Unite

    I first worked in a library when I was in junior high. Volunteering at my school library led to a high school job at our local Carnegie Library. When I moved to Dayton, I ended up working in the Archives and behind the circulation desk at my university’s library. I also spent time working for…

  • Sweater Lust

    I spend downtime on Polyvore and Pinterest. Not that I have copious amounts of downtime, but those two places easily fit into a few minutes of downtime here and there. Apparently, as the weather turns cooler, my lust for sweaters increases. This year, it’s not just any sweater either. I seem to be drawn to…

  • Fall Fashion Finally

    Plenty of people I know prefer the fun and flirty fashion of summer. For me? I love the patterns, textures and palette of fall. Hands down fall is my favorite season and my favorite section in my closet. I am totally in love with the shape of the Mary bag from Grace Adele. I own…

  • Fashion From Day to Night

    One of the things we lawyerly types deal with is the fact that dark suits, white shirts and dark shoes are the norm. Sure, there are variations and some envelope pushing, but depending upon where you practice, your agenda for the day and the expectations of the occasion, your closet is full of made-for-court clothing.…
