This is for you, Lindsay

As all of my students know, I'm pretty passionate about teaching and biology and some of the others know that I'm also very excited about fashion and shopping for clothes. One of those students who never fails to make me feel special and enjoy the way I present myself through my fashion is Lindsay. She will see me and say, "I miss your blog plots" or "I love your outfit"  so this one is for you girl, thanks for the love, encouragement and support!

 Statement necklace: Stella and Dot on Striped shirt...a formula for me! Also my favorite Downing tote from J.Crew.

 A camel blazer, with a cool pinstriped lining over a black skirt, tights and Frye boots

But the best and finishing touch to this outfit is the blanket scarf. I picked up this super soft one at Forever21 for $12.

Wearing lately

Since I can't seem to put together a complete blog post highlighting an outfit here are some iphone shots of things I've been wearing lately!

Leather skirt, booties and stripes

Stripes and statement necklace

Patagonia vest and plaid shirt

Coated Denim Moto jacket and graphic Tee

Earnest Sewn Jeans, cool ripped knee and a gingham shirt with quilted jacket

All of these items were thrifted except the Coated Moto jacket from the LOFT!

A little party

It all started with me trying to get tickets for my husband to see his favorite band. The Marshall Tucker Band in November 2013.

Doug Gray and Marcus James Henderson of the Marshall Tucker band.

Now they are coming back to celebrate with me...how amazing!

Beautiful Fall

We've been having the most amazing fall weather here in upstate New York...it solidifies that this is my favorite time of year! Well, actually, I love every season.

I took a few quick outfit photos the other day and thought I would share.

On my truck...

Looking tough...or not!

Shirt, skirt: AnnTaylor LOFT (various years...)

Jacket: LOFT (2014 fall collection)

Necklace: thrifted

Shoes: Mossimo

Sunglasses: Nine West----gifted from the C.M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund 2014 Golf Tournament

I want to be back blogging...

Thank you

Taken today in my office, LOOK at my hair!!!

There is a lot that I haven't shared here in a very long time...I was hoping to be back blogging full time this summer and I wasn't... and then my plans for a fall entry back into blogging have not really come together. All-in-all life is returning to normal, my hair is growing back...and I continue to wage battle with breast cancer. I'm finding a new normal and I have to accept where I am at. It is never easy and most days it all seems like a bad dream.

From the spring...

Thank you to so many of you for your continued words of encouragement and support, I need it!

On Live TV!

I was featured as a model on a local talk show wearing an amazing outfit from Ann Taylor.
