Moodboard Monday - Freedom Flight

Good morning everyone!

The heat has finally hit us!  It may have been slow getting here, but it's now a force to be reckoned with.  We're sweltering!  

I have a bird moodboard today - hope you see a few different things and enjoy the variety of ideas.

And hope you have a wonderful day!

Botanicals to Wear

Dolce and Gabbana have come up with a stunning Fall/Winter 2016/2017 collection of botanical wear that I had to share with you.

Deep rich green, classic style and some fun and funky accessories in sunglasses, shoes, purses and jewelry.

I may never have an opportunity to wear Dolce and Gabbana, but I can certainly enjoy their style and flair!

Hope you enjoy!


















Those shoes!!

Even the baby's shoes match!

Sitting Pretty

Indoors or out, upholstered or not, the latest trend seems to be settees.

And what an array of colors and styles - fresh and bright, casual, formal, old and new - there is something for everyone.
