Today's theme for our collaboration is ballet based- how bittersweet! From a young age, you could say I was pretty much immersed in everything that's art; from painting, to crafting, to sewing, designing, diy's- and yes, ballet too. I was a ballerina for the longest time! I danced til the age of 20 and taught... Continue Reading →
FASHIONABLE FRIDAY: Midweek Colour Blast
Needless to say, when it comes to work and family balance- family always comes first. Especially when you're tending to sick kids and husband!

The Thrifty Six Tickle Me Pink!
When in doubt, wear pink...and silk! This is true even where the weather is still kind of shifty, like here in Florida. Silk is the most versatile fabric: keeps you warm when your chilly (think of a silk scarf)- and cool in summer; have your pick! And when there's some pink in the mix of... Continue Reading →
The Thrifty Six in January Bright!
When I think bright- I think white! With a side of colourful David Bowie makes it even better! But today's star (sorry Bowie), is this vintage YSL foulard. Can blue and white be any crisper? I've inherited this scarf years ago (the 80's to be exact)...and all I did was wear it a few times.... Continue Reading →
