Follow the Money... Maybe
Sometimes the uber-glitzy, sunshiney, picture-perfect, I'm-ready-for-my-close-up world on the internet makes me want to retreat to a snow-covered cabin deep in the woods. I know I've said this before , but sometimes the internet makes me crazy. Here's why. ...

When Is It Time to Say Good-Bye to Your Clothes?
One of my style resolutions this year, well every year actually, is to wear what I own. And if I don't, to make the ultimate decision to get rid of what I'm not wearing. Even though I have a small closet, wearing what I own is harder than it sounds. Especi...

Snow Pant "Chic"
Unless you live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, you probably missed the snow pants controversy last week. And even if you live here, you might have missed it. I almost did. Seems that Shannon Proudfoot, who writes for Maclean's magazine, started the whole deba...

Desperately Seeking Susan's Blog Identity
These past few days while many of you have been braving the elements to go to work, or play, or to run errands, wrapping yourself in fifteen layers of wool and fleece, and coaxing reluctant cars to start, I've been nestled in my den in my sweatpants and sli...

Leather Pants Redux. Again and Again.
I have a small wardrobe. Made up of quality pieces I love, plus a few cheaper items which go so well with the quality pieces that I couldn't resist them. I regularly edit out what I know I'll not wear anymore, clothes that no longer fit my body or my lifest...

Kindness, Civility, and a Little Respect
It's January. For those of us who live in the northern hemisphere, that means winter. And for those of us who live in the north of the northern hemisphere, that means lots of darkness, and cold, and whatever precipitation our changing climate wants to throw...

Mystery Lovers Anonymous
Remember the good old days? When P.D. James, Ruth Rendell, Reginald Hill, or Colin Dexter published a new mystery novel, and you'd rush to the book store to buy it, or put yourself on a very long list at the library? Then once you had the book in your hot l...

Ski ou Après Ski
Hubby and I will be heading out for a few days of skiing in a week or two. Maybe. Hopefully. Fingers and toes crossed. We're not making firm plans because, well, snow. Or the lack of snow, more like it. Our January weather can be unpredictable; we may have ...
