Before or After?

Linda Evangelista BEFORE

It's amazing how versatile models can be.  They can change their looks with just a bit of makeup or a hairstyle change.  But, can we do the same?  I believe so.  The feature in W Magazine really inspired me to try something different with my look.  What about you?  What's your staple look and how will you change it?

Wordless Wednesday Sensuous Sade

I was lucky enough to score tickets to see Sade Sunday night and she was AMAZING.  First of all, at 52 I can't believe how beautiful she looks.  Her voice is like poetry.  She sounded wonderful live and the show was very artistic.  Are you a fan?  I've loved her for years.

This was my favorite performance from the show.  So creative.

I'm linking up with Daphne of Flip Flops and Pearls today!  Join us!

"Fall In Love" Tuesday Back To School Fashion

(Via)

Good morning!  Today I'm so excited to be linking up for the first time with the fabulous Heather from Big City Belle for her new link up, Fall In Love!  What a great idea!  If you're like me, you love everything about Fall and I can't wait to see all the great posts from other bloggers.  If you want to join us, please do!

As many of you know, I'm a high school English teacher.  What better to begin with for my first Fall link up, then my love of back to school?  I get excited each year to go get new school clothes and shoes to return to work.  It's like going back to school myself every year.  I found some great images on Pinterest.   What about you?  Did you look forward to the first day of school?  What were you most excited about when the 1st day rolled around?
