In a blue dress

The return of early Fall or Indian Summer or whatever we're calling it when the temperature gets up to 70 degrees in November prompted me to dig in the back of my closet for something to wear. I closed my eyes, reached in, and pulled out this vintage poly-tastic blue dress.It's still pretty chilly in the morning, so I bundled up in a cropped jacket, colorful scarf, and boots. I actually planned on wearing a

Projects in progress

Last week, I lamented my work load on Twitter: (You can follow @StyleSample for real-time updates--most of the time I'm not so complain-y, I swear.) Between the new issue of Style Sample magazine (out tomorrow!), Style Tour reviews, and a few other projects, my eyes are crossed from staring at page layouts and Wordpress admin screens.

It’s voodoo, child

After trying to decide on a Halloween costume for the better part of a month, Saturday morning came and went and I was no closer to making a decision. I'd spent a good part of the morning brushing and trimming my hair while humming a completely off-key version of "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" when the idea hit me: Jimi. I dug through my closet and found I already had everything I needed for the
