So….there was an article written recently that has ruffled many (stylish) women’s feathers–including mine. Over on Rant Chic a post was written about the 24 Things Women Should Stop Wearing After Age 30. Say what!?! For me, this is just asinine. I’ve never done well with people regulating what I can and cannot wear. IContinue reading 24 Things I Shouldn’t Have Worn–Ooops! Basically, #IwillwearwhatIlike
DIY: Doily Bowls
For some reason I’ve been wanting to make these little doily bowls for a while. It’s quite silly how easy these little bowls are to make. I’m mean, it’s probably the simplest DIY project out there. And now, I have four new cute bowls about the house to fill with those random left items thatContinue reading DIY: Doily Bowls
Kremb de la Kremb Cabin: The Porch
The porch is the heart of our cabin. It’s the location that comes to mind when I think about our cabin. Most of our hanging out occurs on the porch. When I’m not here the porch is what I day dream about, and while I am here it’s where I actually do dream–literally. Kevin andContinue reading Kremb de la Kremb Cabin: The Porch
The Fab 40s in Leopard
I love leopard! So I was very, very excited to hear that The Fab 40s theme for July was leopard. Mainly, I’ll be honest, I was happy for the chance to showcase my leopard lounger from our screened in porch out at our cabin on Spirit Lake. This old bamboo patio set came with theContinue reading The Fab 40s in Leopard
Baby Shower Ideas and Freuen Baby Shower Candids
Baby Shower Details My sisters and I recently hosted a baby shower for our two brothers and their pregnant wives. Of course the best part was having us all together. The second best part was the planning and prep. Yes, I often enjoy the anticipation and preparation just as much (sometimes more) than the actualContinue reading Baby Shower Ideas and Freuen Baby Shower Candids
Recipe: Grandma Soogie’s Cucumber and Walla Walla Sweets
In Washington State there’s an onion that grows in Walla Walla that can actually be eaten as an apple. It’s a sweet onion that is bursting with flavors. While I personally have never eaten a Walla Walla Sweet like an apple, I know people who do, and they love them. My family also loves thisContinue reading Recipe: Grandma Soogie’s Cucumber and Walla Walla Sweets
Not Your Grandma’s Moo Moo
This dress is not your grandma’s moo moo–not even your mother’s. I had to quickly run into Forever 41–op, I did it again, I mean Forever 21, for a return. While I was quickly choosing something to exchange, I pulled out this dress. Kevin was like, No way! But I just kind of knew itContinue reading Not Your Grandma’s Moo Moo
DIY: Add Pom Poms
Have something too short? Just add pom poms! I’ve had this really cute Guatemalan fabric skirt since last summer. It has almost been perfect except for the length. While I usually don’t mind wearing a short hem, for some reason this skirt has always made me self-conscious. I haven’t been willing nor ready to giveContinue reading DIY: Add Pom Poms
Kremb de la Kremb Cabin: The Family Room
Last week I started telling a bit about the history of our cabin on Spirit Lake, Idaho. While we’re out here enjoying the beauty of this magical spot for our family, I would like to try to capture some of the special spots within the cabin that carry so many of our memories. As mentionedContinue reading Kremb de la Kremb Cabin: The Family Room
White Sundress with Cowboy Boots
A white sundress is a summer necessity. A white sundress paired with cowboy boots is a stylistic take on vacationing in Idaho. Actually one of the new stores that has cropped up in Spirit Lake is a vintage cowboy boot shop–I must go take a look. During the summer though, out at Spirit Lake, I’llContinue reading White Sundress with Cowboy Boots
Summer Candids: A Week in Seattle
The summer is well underway, so before too much time elapses, I felt I should post the summer candids from our week in Seattle at the start of the summer. Usually I post my Style Stories on Fridays, but since summer style out at the lake consists of jean shorts, tee shirts, and swimsuits, I’mContinue reading Summer Candids: A Week in Seattle
Recipe: Quinoa Salad with Zucchini and Walnuts
Every summer there’s something that is repeatedly put on the table; this summer that dish is quinoa salad with zucchini and walnuts. I use cookbooks and the internet as well as recipes that are passed on by friends or family, but sometimes I create a recipe myself. That’s the case with this quinoa salad. It’sContinue reading Recipe: Quinoa Salad with Zucchini and Walnuts
