For the past two Wednesdays in September, I’ve highlighted wearing shorts: here a black pleather, waist tied short paired with a blouse and here an ultra suede khaki short paired with a leopard blouse sweater. This Wednesday, I’m wearing all black and white from tweed shorts to a star printed tunic blouse. Wearing shorts outContinue reading Wearing Shorts Out
While the white top of Wednesday’s post was an accidental three-time purchase, this grey sweatshirt was not. I intentionally purchased this grey sweatshirt three times. Heres why: I love it! The one I’m wearing here is the first grey sweatshirt I purchased from H&M. (It’s now available in black.) I have worn it all theContinue reading Grey Sweatshirt X 3
A year ago today… WIBUT? it stands for “What I’ve Been Up To.” I’ve never done a post like this, but I always appreciate it when other bloggers so, so I thought I’d give it a try. Maybe it will become a semi regular post, but I wanted to share what I’ve been up toContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To
It’s Monday, August 6, and I leave for back for Hong Kong in a couple of hours. With two hours left of summer, I wanted to get these Spirit Lake summer candids posted. It was great summer. They always are. Especially when we get family time out at Spirit Lake. With my sister renting theContinue reading Cabin Candids—Spirit Lake Summer 2018
It’s my turn! And since I knew a couple of things about this July–like no wifi out at the lake alongside total lake style, I went with cut offs. Of course. I’m very typical; cut offs are basically all I wear. I’m also lazy when it comes to my summer vacation! Out here in northernContinue reading Blue Jean Baby in My Cut Offs–a Fab 40s Post
Today was my last day at work for the 2017-2018 school year. We leave for Seattle on Sunday morning and arrive on Sunday at the same time we leave–gotta love time travel! We’ll have no problem staying up however once we arrive; we’ll be heading to an afternoon Mariners’ game! Love me some Ms baseballContinue reading Here’s to Wearing Short Shorts–All Summer Long
The summer countdown has officially started! We celebrated a day off yesterday for International Labor Day, this past weekend I transferred out wardrobes, and the summer heat has hit Hong Kong. So, yes, the summer countdown is on! Being a teacher definitely has perks–summer being one of them, and to be exact we have 30Continue reading The Summer Countdown
Spring is here! And for once in Hong Kong, spring is lasting longer than a week! Usually, we’ll have one amazing spring day, and it will feel like the next day the weather skipped all the way to hot summer. But touch wood–spring is here in Hong Kong, and it has been lovely! During ourContinue reading Spring is Here!
I’m a list maker. I love making lists. So, in an attempt to mix things up a bit, I thought I’d start sharing some of my lists here and there. First though, what will today’s list be about….? La Vita é Bella of course! For non Italian speakers, this means “Life is Beautiful!” Each oneContinue reading La Vita é Bella–Making Lists
We went to see Ready Player One this weekend. I’ve been anticipating this movie since I read the amazing book by Ernest Kline last summer. (Here’s my book with an outfit for Ready Player One–I need to start creating these posts again.) Vincent read the book in two days, handed it over to me, andContinue reading Ready Player One
It’s March, and everyone dealing with the end of this winterish month is eager for spring’s rainbow! For all of us in Hong Kong are winter chill is over but we still quite don’t know how many layers to wear. Suffice it to say that a jean jacket is always the perfect layer this timeContinue reading Rainbow Bright! A Fab 40s Post
Happy International Women’s Day to all the women I know out there.

I can name many girlfriends from each of the countries we’ve lives so far, so for this postContinue reading Happy International Women’s Day!
