We’ve been on the road and in the office and wow, it’s suddenly summer. We’ve gotta breath, we’re actually prepping Fall 2016 and have yet to have the first swim, or the first campfire.
Styled oldest daughter in floral on floral last weekend for dear friend’s law school commencement, she’ll wear it all again this holiday weekend while on the Jersey shore.
Styled myself in same dress same place as last year yet added some new kind of retro kind of chic Gucci sandals.
Whatever the day, days end is always better together. Really can’t count how many meals we’ve put out, and doesn’t even matter.
This weeknight we did peppers and onions, chicken and steak. Added lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, cheese, whole wheat tortillas, some hot sauce and of course sour cream.
We were missing a few, and cilantro and lime.
Made the most of what we had, people, food; always bring it together.
Happy Monday everyone. Getting back in the groove here, long weekend in Boston MA celebrating young adult friend’s law school graduation, woot woot Alexander.
ps. almost always cloth napkins, and almost always Pinot noir. xoxo
For those following along on the blog Wednesday night’s event with Wendy Selig-Prieb to help WNY Women’s Foundation at Albright-Knox Art Gallery, stunning success, two standing ovations, and over-sold. Thank you Wendy, proper post coming soon once the professional photos hit the email feed.
We’ve been a little on the down-low the last week, event prep takes a lot out of us and a little event let-down always slides in. Day of event? No wine at lunch. Day after event? Yes, wine at lunch, and then again at dinner. 🙂
For dinner out after wine at lunch wore new piece from Summer 16, a long jacket, and once again styled as a dress. It can all be blur. Love it when you can mix and match separates and get out the dressed well and quick. Black always makes it easy when you’re time stressed, promise, it was color and pattern for the big event.
Today it’s Friday, TGIF, and I’ve missed blogging, can’t do it all, all the time. Wine at lunch? Yes, most definitely sometimes. 🙂
Have a great weekend all. xoxo
ps. We’re back in the office full tilt until we head to NYC mid-June. Working to help women feel good in their clothes one outfit, one piece, one day at time.
For prep work wore what I had, leather culottes, husbands shirt, and oblong scarf tied at the neck, kind of flowing out back. Love mixing navy and black, and the skinny kind of scarf around the neck is a bit of trend.
If you’re in BUF and you want to join the fun, it will be the place to be, call Catherine at 716-887-2616 tomorrow between 9 am and noon and she might just get you in. 🙂
We’ve worked all over town and deliberately and consciously moving into upstate, love that 90, good things take time.
Enjoying every little second of pansy time, and waiting for peonies.
Two new things we’ve added to the rotation and have yet to wear, we’ve been working!, YSL star wallet (picked that out myself) on a chain and Tangerine Christian Louboutin Nail Colour, gifted by oldest daughter.
Thinking the star thing is a little young yet honestly we don’t care. Orange or Tangerine nail color is always spot on for spring/summer, can’t wait to DIY and apply, thank you Linnie. xoxo
Stopped in at husband’s office today and he said, ‘wow, you look like you’re working’. 🙂
Yes, and that’s a good thing. Even better when you get to wear full on denim and bronze footwear. 🙂 Full disclosure, we were doing inventory, and packing, and shipping out to multiple states.
Still at it, and posting this during a quick little break.
Can’t help myself with the emojis, working with beautiful women and beautiful clothing is a very good gig.
We love to every day dress. Hump day everyone! xoxo
ps. Even with denim wear your good lingerie, what are we all saving it for? Thank you Lace & Day.
Yesterday we did what we usually do: gathered together and broke bread, oh, those special Sunday’s. Three generations, let’s all celebrate.
Started the day with blueberry pancakes and slow cooked scramble, no photos, we were barely dressed. Husband and I went off to the country for a day in the garden, intense weeding and moderate tractor work.
Second daughter took over the dinner kitchen magnificently, so proud. Love that what you do day after day so often comes back, thank you Booie.
Steaks on the grill, green beans, caesar and mashed, total thumbs up. Coconut cake by Monnie, gelato, of course, and a little chocolate extravaganza, special Sunday’s, we’re all about that. You know who we’re missing…
blue knives, blue toes, blue suede platforms, blue pansies, blue jeans
Every day dress, wishing everyone special Sunday’s, always. xoxo
At the end of the day, when you’ve put forth a pretty good effort, thinking it’s okay to sometimes skip the sauce. 🙂
Maybe not the nightly glass of wine (or two), but definitely sometimes the grill (when it’s still pretty chill outside), and the homemade BBQ sauce, we used store-bought bottled and threw those breasts in the oven on this weeknight. Baked sweet potato super easy add-on.
Must confess, after a day in the field black tank, denim, no make-up, hair back and time in the kitchen does the trick.
love that in my professional life I get to wear things like denim, and a suede shirt, and suede sandals, thank you Worth New York.
thinking that while we love deeply things that are dark, like coffee, and mostly black clothes, red wine, and chocolate, that it’s a good idea to always add color, something maybe like this poppy suede shirt. 🙂
Met with a client last week in suite 101, that’s what partner and I decided today to call our work space proper moving forward, and was hoping she would add some color to her wardrobe. She lit up when she put on a jacket in canary yellow, we settled of course on navy, for the time being. 🙂
Every day dress, let’s all add a little color. xoxo
And, to confuse it again, loving this white and green in the garden, oh, joy.
Much like the three words “I love you”, cashmere, denim, linen convey weight, heft, longevity, security, and comfort.
Last weekend we worked trunk, this weekend we were all garden and kitchen.
Cashmere, denim, and linen were our go-tos. We put the phone out of reach and dug down deep in the dirt, time out of mind. Second son’s linen shirt, husband’s croc belt, rips, and long black sweater.
We’ll be back in the office full tilt tomorrow, Monday, every day dress. The clothes we wear can wrap us in good feelings.
