2013: So Fresh and So Clean


What's prettier than an angel topper?  A “Gleason Girl” photographed by Lisa Larsen for Life Magazine, 1953


I love the holidays, but there's something refreshing about sticking that fake tree back in its box.

Along with a re-vamp of the boys' toy bins (goodbye forever, Thomas the Train!!) I am ready for a personal style overhaul. Goodwill is getting about 100 Matchbox cars as well as every single item of clothing I have that doesn't fit, is itchy or has some sort of bad karma sewn into it. Out with the old, darlings, and in with the post-holiday sales!

My fresh-faced look for 2013 is going to be pared down, polished and pretty. Slim faded jeans, soft cashmere sweaters, a nice navy pea coat and longer, blonder hair are ranking high in my fantasy fashion league...

Cool-girl Cameron shows us how it's done.

Add a touch of liquid blush, use the eyelash curler and some of that Rose by Terry lip balm and--

Touchdown!

Now pass the vitamins, dearie, drink an extra glass of water and enjoy 2013 like these two:

or better yet, these two!!

  1. I have been trying to pare things down since I started working in a business casual office. But sometimes it's still nice to put on a high waisted skinny skirt, a ruffly blouse, and sky high heels. Don't know why, it just is. :-)

    1. Sounds totally cute. Those biz-cazh people will fall out of their roller-wheel chairs when they see you, and you will probably get a raise! Happy New Year!
