Last Wednesday I wrote about making sure I have a pair of black Bermuda shorts for this summer, and whadya know, they arrived today! The other summer trend I must have is some tie dye. Granted I already have a few tie dye t-shirts, so I’m all set in that department, but the one areaContinue reading Summer Must Have: Tie Dye
On Sunday morning, as I was getting dressed in this very wild outfit, I had a great conversation with my sister Julie. She was like, “Ann, at some point you’re just going to have to embrace that you like bold. You like color and prints. It’s your style, so quite making excuses for it!” Wow.Continue reading Bold Bicycle Shorts
Usually when I look forward to my summer, I don’t think much about what to pack. The cabin has all my necessary Idaho essentials: jeans and cutoffs, sweatshirts and sweaters, tees and flannels. There’s also a collection of swimsuits and sundresses. Going home to my cabin wardrobe is like seeing an old friend. This summerContinue reading Summer Must Have: Black Bermudas
It’s June 3rd, and we leave for our summer holiday in exactly 2 weeks. We have such a different summer ahead of us; I can hardly wait. Vincent has already started his summer when he arrived in Seattle this past Friday night. He was allowed an early departure from school, so he can play baseballContinue reading Planning for Summer 2019
This month of May was a little slower on the reading front–probably because I read such bad books. I hate it when that happens. Usually I put a book down if I’m not enjoying it, but three times this month I held out with hopes that the books would get better. Unfortunately they did not.Continue reading What I’ve Been Reading and Watching this May
Recently I bought a paisley tee shirt that I just loved. I mean anything paisley is a win-win for me. I wrote about why I love paisley so much here in this white paisley dress. The last time I wore this paisley tee I rather over did it with a loud leopard skirt. This timeContinue reading How to Make an Easy Co-Ord
Exactly 24 years ago this May Kevin and I fell madly in love. It was fast and furious and love was declared in just a month. There was something about our connection that stuck–like glue! Our first (well actually third) kiss happened on April 14. It was a quick peck on the cheek given inContinue reading The Shell Love Story
In April I tie-dyed a jean jacket. Well, of course I needed some DIY tie-dye jeans to match! These jeans are my weight gauge jeans; if I can fit in them, I’m not doing too bad, but if they don’t fit, reign it in Annie, reign it in. They’re just a classic straight leg jeanContinue reading DIY Tie-Dye Jeans
Last Wednesday I wore a #TLZ (Total Look Zara) outfit. I like the dress so much; I then went and got the white wrap dress as well. Basically, I love paisley–it most likely has something to do with all my time living in India. Although…. I can remember paisley samples that my interior designer momContinue reading #TLZ Round Two in a White Wrap Dress
In exactly one month, I will arrive in Seattle, and I will not need to make a Target wish list for two months! Instead, perhaps I’ll be posting my weekly Target hauls!! Hehe. A couple of items, mainly one, is completely wishful as it’s an item for our cabin, and unfortunately we will not beContinue reading Target Wish List for May
I have crushes all over Instagram. One of them is Carmen Gimeno. (I’ve talked about her twice before, here and here.) Carmen most definitely works for Zara or maybe even the head company, Inditex. She’s always dressed in head to toe Zara and offers me tons of style inspiration. Hence the hashtag she always uses;Continue reading #TLZ: Total Look Zara
I’m in a bit of a habit now. Every time I have surgery, I treat myself to a new pair of sneakers. Seems fair, right?! This time around Google kept making sure I saw this pretty pastel Champion pair every time I conducted a search. I saw these Champion sneakers enough times, I had toContinue reading Post Op Sneakers
