i'm back

it's been close to 5 years since i last posted anything on this blog and if you read my last post you'll know why. a lot has happened since then and the one thing that I look back on with regret was not being resilient enough to keep up on this. i loved blogging about fashion--sure it was basically for the three people (my mom, me and seth) that actually followed along but it gave me something to work on that was outside of my normal motherly duties. it helped me feel like i was taking a chance and being daring by putting myself out there. my skin wasn't as thick before to take the mean spirited comments and gossip taking place behind my back but since then i've moved to new york city (which would make anyone tougher). this city has been so good for me in so many ways and it has helped me to feel more confident in myself and ignore the criticism that comes from those who are watching you. so without further delay i am announcing my return to the blogging world. i've changed my blog name and am hoping to find some other friends to team up with but here is to better success the second time around and hoping that those that do follow along will be kind and send positive vibes my way.

and just to kick things off, here are some pics of my favorite hats for this summer
