10th Commandment: February 28

Feb 28, 2014

Being from Montana, winter has little power over me.  Winters in Montana are seemingly endless.  They can start as early as September and end as late as May.  Snow in the summer is by no means unheard of in the Rockies.

But this winter, this winter is a different story.  I am so sick of being cold.  All I can think about is warm weather, sundresses and weekend trips.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to turn up the heat in my condo.  Again.

    I actually think I like the Baggu bag better than the more expensive Pottery Barn bag… love those nautical stripes. And you’re not alone in wishing for winter to end. If I have to spend one more morning layering cardigans over my dresses and putting on socks, then wellie socks, then my Hunter boots just to walk from my car to the office, I’m going to cry!

    I’ve been following Everlane since they launched. I am a huge fan and love to see you promoting them here. I have their weekender and it’s fantastic. I have even used it for longer (7-14 day) warm-weather trips.

    I think the LL Bean boat and tote bags hold up a little better than the Land’s End ones – LLB are stiffer material

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
