In The Mix

Easy weather calls for easy clothing. This was pulled together so easily for me. Boyfriend jeans, in any material, even khaki as I've styled here are so versatile. You can dress them up or down, and they never fail. Spring has me pulling out all my sandals already! I'm always impatient for days like this. So glad they're on the way.

When It Rains...

It literally starting pouring down as soon as I left the house to take these pictures. You can't tell from the pics that it's coming down, but then that could be due to the great person behind the camera (Thanks Tiris!) We had to move fast and I must say when a lot of thought isnt put into the shoot, it comes out great! Enjoy your weekend!

Cake Pops

Today I'm taking a step away from fashion to discuss something else I'm passionate about. A few years ago, three to be exact, I found out that I enjoy making cake pops. It really came by chance that I began doing it. I was planning a friend's baby shower and I already knew that I wanted to have cake pops. I had recently been introduced to them because I was gifted some for my birthday the year before. I had never heard of them and found that my sweet tooth loved and craved the cute little lollipop looking treats! Well, when I found out the price of these cute treats, there was no way I was paying for them for only the few that I needed for the baby shower anyway. In steps my creativity. I always loved baking and wanted to pursue cake decorating for awhile. This was the chance to put my skills to work and did it work?.. YES! My first round were a hit and I surprised myself because I tapped into something that I never knew I had a passion for. I took a cake decorating class and quickly learned more decorating techniques. This now has become a passion which has led me to   making other things; among them, the chocolate covered strawberries and other treats. This will be my showcase space for now when I make cake pops. I have had orders requested for events and I truly enjoy seeing others happy with what I've created. I have some other projects brewing that involve cake pops that I will soon share, and I will say.. it's going to be exciting! For anyone interested in placing an order for cake pops, please contact me via email at tammylb30@yahoo.com. Requests can be made for strawberries, chocolate lollipops, Oreo pops, choc covered pretzel rods, and mini desserts including chocolate mousse, strawberry cheesecake mousse, and banana pudding. Because I only have pics of select items from my phone the pictures may not be the best quality, but Im working on a website that will showcase everything. Thanks for the support!

Initials ( these were for my cousin who wanted to reward his team for their progress)

End note:  I will say that I can see my progress with this. Some of these were my earlier creations from 2 years back. I have definately grown in my craft and have learned that consistency is key.

Blanket Scarf

The blanket scarf has been on trend for awhile now. It can be worn so many different ways but I chose the basic wrap for this particular post. I actually had this one for awhile and have only wore it a few times. I have so many scarves and usually some get more love than most. My hats have been my saving grace too in this brisk weather. I'm a shoe and bag girl, but hats have made their way into my heart now. Stay warm!

Fox & Hound

Hello to the weekend! A leather jacket can take you through the transition of seasons especially when layered well. I paired it with a fur vest and  jean shirt. I recommend this to be a staple piece in your wardrobe. This will definitely be getting more replay with the warmer weather.
