More or less?

When are too many accessories too much? I happen to think that you can never have too much :) Recently I've been loading up enough necklaces to make Mr. T proud! What girl doesn't like to play dress up?! Whenever I start piling on the jewelry, it takes me back to a time when I would raid my mom's jewelry box and have a ball! Rings, bracelets, necklaces...you name! Sometimes it's fun to act like a kid again....and look really cool doing it!

Escape from New York


Like many New Yorkers this past weekend, my husband and I escaped the hustle and bustle of the city to visit family in Southern Pennsylvania. I always enjoy these weekend getaways to places with large backyards, porch swings, and picket fences. I pride myself on being a light packer so on these 1-2 day trips I have to make sure I pack only what's necessary. I think my hubby and I definitely got it right in our after church Sunday's best. Simple and easygoing layered outfits with a slight tailored look, love it :)

My Sunday Best

Since this weekend is Easter weekend for some I wanted to pay homage to the Easter dress. One of the elements I think of when I think of Easter Sundays when I was little was my Easter dress. The ensemble normally consisted of ruffles, lace, and satin bows (which would look pretty cool now-a-days!). Well this weekend I'll be wearing the above beauty of girlie ruffles that I scored at my recent Buffalo Exchange trip. I'm not a girlie girl but something about these pretty ruffles took me back to a time when I enjoyed running across a lawn in white patent leather shoes and lace ruffle socks looking for hidden eggs :)
Enjoy your weekend everyone!
