Sunday Best and All the Rest

  Hello all and happy November! With earlier sunsets, colder days, and talk of Thanksgiving plans, it's easy to feel the change of seasons. Though the dark evenings can frustrate me, I do like being cozy indoors watching movies and draining mugs of tea. Another one of my favorite things (I feel a song coming on...) about this time of year is a good pair of boots.

   Hi everyone! Long time no see, eh? I've been going through another one of those seasons where I find myself with no energy or material for blogging at the close of each day. Happily, Mom and I were finally able to get a photo shoot in over the weekend. I have quite a few new consignment items and am happy to be able to share them with you when I have the chance!

   Happy New Year, readers! It's 2018 and what do you know, there is now a generation of legal adults who weren't born in the 20th century. If that isn't enough to make you think, this November will mark 100 years since World War I ended. And 1,000 years ago, history was in the beginning of the medieval era. Are you tired of the trivia now? Let's get back to the simple things in life, clothes specifically. ;)

   Hello there, everyone! Life is full, is it not? At any given time of year, just living can take up a lot of time and energy. Add Christmas into the mix and things get even more complicated. Blog post material isn't always easy to come by anyway when one's outfit photographer is not readily available and other plans fall through for the time being. Never fear, the blog will not lie completely dormant. Enter the wonderful world of Pinterest...

   Hi all! It's been a couple of weeks, hasn't it? I hope that you have been enjoying a lovely October. I don't know about you, but I seem to know of quite a few birthdays in this part of the month! Last night I dressed up in some eighties duds to help a friend celebrate her 30th birthday...retro-style!

       Hi all! I hope your week has been one full of peace, growth, rest, or productivity -  whatever you needed, even if it wasn't what you initially wanted! My week has been less overwhelming than many preceding days, resulting in me being caught up at work and feeling accomplished at home. I did end up coming down with a cold, but am glad to be having a relaxing evening.

   Hello dear readers! The season has officially changed today, though winter had already come to the North. Even here on the coast, frost has been covering the ground each morning. Meanwhile, my birthday has now come on gone, with sweet family and friends making it a special day. Christmas festivities continue and fighting illness has become a normal part of my day. Yes...it's December!

   Hello everyone! Can you believe this is already my first blog post for October? September went by so quickly that I even missed celebrating my blogversary on the 2nd....hehe, woops! Regardless, the season has transitioned from summer to autumn, and the time for sweaters and boots has come!

   When I turned three years old, my mother made me a hot pink tutu. Along with a matching veil and pink and teal striped leotard (it was the 90's, ok?) , I was ready to reign. As far as I can recall, that tutu was my first and last piece tulle clothing...until last weekend, that is. While out on a shopping expedition with my mom, I met a brand-new tulle skirt, fit for a grown-up princess.

   Greetings bloglings! :) This week is just flying by, and I'm barely making this a "first part of the week post". Yesterday's anticipated blog shoot met with a couple of roadblocks, but it all turned out for the best, as I have future blog plans squared away in my mind. I'll tell you more on that later...;)

    Hello readers! It's a cozy-inside, wet-outside winter evening here on the Pacific coast, and this blogger is tired. I started a new part-time job yesterday, which I am enjoying so far. I'm also anticipating being in a wedding this weekend (yay!), which will account for some more busyness. Life continues on with its expected and unexpected events. It's all good stuff, but it takes up time and energy. At times like these, it's nice to have some material saved back for blogging...

    How do you do folks? Christmas has come and gone again, and proved to be a good holiday for my family and I. We enjoyed time with family on Christmas Eve and fellowship with dear friends on the holiday proper, as well as times with just the three (four, counting Copper ;) of us.

   Good evn'n' readers! Today's post is something a little off of Sunday Best's beaten path; It's a Pinterest inspiration post! Yes, I know...I'm a little behind the times in the world of fashion blogging. ;) We all have to do these posts at some point we don't have outfit photos ready...or is it just me *cough*? Either way, enjoy these winter fashions that I've been liking this year!

  Hello all! Today I'm here to review a handcrafted item from an Etsy shop. How often is it that I do that!? Let's take a closer look, shall we?

   Well, another weekend is upon us. The next weekend will be December. Um...how did that happen? Let's reminisce about this month's holiday before getting ahead of ourselves. ;)

   Happy Thanksgiving eve to my U.S. friends, and happy (almost, for me) Friday to my international friends! California's sweater season has finally come, and I have a sweaterificant outfit to share with you today. It also proves that I really do wear colors other than blue. ;)

   Evening, folks! :) What have you been up to this November? I've been busy with my usual pursuits, as well as practicing my dulcimer. Learning an instrument has been a fun experience so far, and I look forward to the day when I am confident enough to play in church (or video myself).

   Happy last weekend of Summer! And here I am sharing an autumnal outfit. The fact of the matter is, last Wednesday was a cold and rainy day here on the coast. It actually felt like Fall! However, on Thursday it was back to sunshine. It still hasn't been as warm as before, so the next season could very well be on its way.

    Hi everyone! Today I would like to introduce you to my Mom, Lisa! Actually, she's been featured on here before, but it's been a while. Now you get to see what she looks like in front of the camera, instead of seeing her work behind it.

   Hi everyone! What do you have planned for this weekend? My weekend has been/ will be filled with attending a birthday bbq, church, a goodbye potluck, blogging, putting together a childrens' church lesson, and hopefully watching a movie or reading...hopefully. ;)
