Greetings to my Fashionable Friends! Hope you have all been able to have some fun in the sun this past week. Just over a month ago, I issued my first fashion post as a brand new blogger. I have been so appreciative of the encouragement from my family and friends. I also feel so blessed to have met some new followers along the way. Thank you to everyone for your love and support. It really adds to the joy this brings to me each and every week. To celebrate that first post, I have decided to show you another way to make a fabulous clothing item last all year long. As I have said before, high waisted pants are one of my favorite pieces this year. Having the ability to wear them for every season may be what I love most about them. This week, I am featuring a pair of high waisted, wide leg, retro pants that were originally owned by grandmother and handed down to me by my mother. If you don't already own a pair, ask family first. Mothers, Grandmothers, Aunts, etc. are an excellen...

Hello Beauties!    Hope you all have been able to discover some lovely looks while playing dress up in your closets these past few days.

( RR-Embrace Secondhand ). Anything high waisted is one of my favorite looks for this year. Fortunately, most of you probably have a lady in your life who owns a pair of "Mom" Jeans. If you don't, no need to fret, they are very easy to find at your local thrift store. Look for a pair of high waisted jeans in any color. If they happen to have a wide leg cut, here is a quick trick to help give them more of a modern feel. Step 1: Put on a standard pair of jeans with a wide leg cut. Step 2: In the back, tightly gather the bottom of the jeans and tie a hair tie or rubber band around the bunch you have created. Step 3: Roll the jeans up...

Hello Fans of Fashion! In last week's post, I displayed an item that wasn't as it appeared. This week I was eager to reveal that item and how it can be worn with my  2WBT1  label.  Drum roll, please... It is my midi, flare skirt. Midi flares are a fabulous item to own and are lovely for Spring, especially in the Northwest. They come in many different color palettes, allow you to stay stylish and warm on cool, spring days and can be worn in more ways than one.  As a Skirt. Wear it as a skirt.
