Day 3 for the dress and dogs.  yes… I have two of them.  At first I was concerned that i would be covered with dog hair… I ordered the steel gray #Rowena.  But I must say that it hasn’t been a problem. 

Woolamina is the name I chose for my dress Woolamina Merino, to be formal.  And she is holding up beautifully…. dog hair and all.

For those of you who still haven’t heard…I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool&  —  Same dress.  100 days. Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with the weekly travels.

 

Today’s goal:

  • Pick an outfit that is comfortable and goes well with dogs.
  • Pack up and drive to the coast

This is the Dude.  Not big on photos… More on the Dude and Rainey HERE!

What’s in store for today:

It’s a sunny winter day in Portland.  If you have ever seen the show Portlandia — you know how much we cherish the sunshine.  Everyone outside soaking up the vitamin D

But still quite brisk — low 40s.  So I will need to bundle up!!

Woolamina paired with a plaid flannel shirt by Jachs’ Girlfriend .

And my FAVORITE BOOTS, made by Chippewa. You can wear them all day long.  

 

Vest is by Orvis.  I have had this for years, and wear it with everything.  I love it with the Rowena.

Sterling necklace beads are from Mexico, and Pendant was from a stall in the French Market in New Orleans

Today’s outfit worked for me — comfortable, dogproof and yet not sloppy.

That’s about it for my choice today’s dress and dogs outfit!

OH… and by the way.. last night’s class with Carla of the Appalachian Flatfooting & Clogging Academy was a blast.  I think I am going to sign up for a course.  Check it out HERE

Maybe not exactly what the instructor had in mind… just me acting silly last night!

Blue is just one of those colors. I love blues, but mostly think of myself as a pink person.  I have a lot of turquoise jewelry, and even a turquoise and white Honda 50 scooter... and a ton of blue jean and chambray shirts.  An blue really seems to pair well with my...

day 23: act naturally

day 23: act naturally

I find it hard to "act naturally" when staring down the lens of a camera... or, in my case, aad cellphone mounted on a tripod. It's has taken a bit of getting used to, mounting my phone on a $20 tripod, and then using the Bluetooth "clicker" to snap the photo.   And...

day 22: one more cup of coffee

One more cup of coffee -- sometimes that is all you need!  I used to drink coffee all day long.  There was always one more cup of coffee in the coffee pot.  And I never had any trouble sleeping.  But, times have changed and now I just have one or two cups in the...
