Comments (53)I love scarves for dressing up an outfit. I wore them a lot in Europe as they are an extra layer...over the shoulders for the cathedral, over the head for a drizzle, around the neck if it's chilly, around the purse if it's hot... Below is a nice video for ideas about how to tie a scarf. However, I too am in the camp of no more turtlenecks...when I have a hot flash, it feels like strangulation. Scarves I can take off, but turtlenecks, I'm stuck. Such a shame as I have a zillion of them...I lived in them all winter when I was working...they look so great under a jacket, with or without a scarf, necklace or lapel pin... I have a couple of white shirts, but I have trouble finding them opaque enough, I never have them ironed so when I'm rushing to get dressed, I by pass them for something that doesn't need ironing, and with my coloring, the white is a washout on me so I have to add color besides. I also have to worry about length as I'm short...tunic shapes just cut me off. Then there's the boobage issue...button fronts can gape on me which also isn't fun. (I remember giving a talk one time, and the fellow in the front row was staring at my belly. I realized my shirt had gaped and he was seeing skin. At least it wasn't in the boob arena. Last time I did that! After that it was pullovers, button in the back, long scarves in front or camis underneath!) So for me, it's not a go to item, though I can see how it could be for someone else. Also, these days, I'm so into comfort that knits are by far my favorites...they move and stretch with me. When I wear wovens without any lycra in them, I feel like I'm fighting my clothes. I didn't try them, but was tempted....I was in walmart and see that Lee is making a super comfortable jean now out of very stretchy, very soft denim with almost a flannel like feel...a real cross between a legging and a jean...but they also had them boot cut. Next time I'm at the VF outlet, I'll have to take a look. Here is a link that might be useful: how to tie a scarf...See MoreRemember that funky but comfy chair at Hampton Inn?
Comments (20)When I received my office chair it needed some repair, as one of the caster-holding plastic inserts at the end of the support bars had broken, letting the caster fall out. We found a piece of pipe the right size, cut it off at the right length and after the landlord's son welded it into the support bar, the caster stays in place quite nicely. After I'd used it for a while, another insert broke and I haven't repaired it yet. Picked it up at the curbside emporium just prior to garbage pick-up day - costing $0.00 ... which made some cents to frugal me! Hope you're having a fruitful, interesting week ... and having some fun in the process. ole joyful...See MoreOutdoor furniture - adirondack chairs vs. cushioned sectional?
Comments (14)I posted this on a couple different threads but I'll do it again here. I wanted comfy outdoor furniture but really didn't want to deal with keeping cushions clean, so I opted for these chairs from Ikea. they're surprisingly comfortable and you can just wipe them off. because they're rounded inside, they're way more comfortable than other hard chairs. throw in a blanket or a small round seat cushion if you need it to be softer. they also come in a pale warm grey (the white is a little harder to maintain). and they're stackable!...See MoreWhat are your most memorable music concerts?
Comments (43)Ooh just reminded me in the mid seventies ( my best guess- 74-76) I saw Patti Smith in some very very small venue which might have been a basement of someplace. She spoke quite a bit and I can recall she said that Baudelaire was the first Rastafarian. It was all over my head, but I knew I was witnessing someone very special. I also remember seeing Bette Midler at the Copacabana maybe a year after I saw Patti Smith. I was absolutely astounded at her energy. She really put on an amazing show and the venue was really small enough to have real banter going on with the audience. She was so sharp and quick- kind of how she comes across but it was so authentic....See Morekitchenkelly
