Valentine's Day Weekend!!!

I've been gone for a minute but I'm back to business!! What a weekend I had, which happened to be a 4-day weekend along with Valentine's Day. Now while I personally am a hopeless romantic, I haven't had a more amazing weekend than the one I just shared.

Now a little monkey wrench tried to wreck my weekend but my guy wouldn't allow it, and thank goodness for him. He gave me the room to be upset for a little while when we discovered someone has been stealing my photos and taking credit for my work. I didn't know whether to be flattered or insulted at first but insulted, disgusted, frustrated, and flat out pissed off won for a moment.

 But as we were driving to our destination (a secret to me, a surprise from him) it started to subside when I saw the lovely mountains of the Poconos,I had never been there! And it was amazing! Our wonderful weekend started in the city on Friday night  to see "Misery" on Broadway with Bruce Willis and Laurie Metcalf...boy it was just as scary and creepy as the movie. When she hobbled him I screamed...LOL! Saturday morning when the wrench was being thrown right along with those frigid winds and cold, the mountains looked more and more beautiful as we got closer to our destination.

We, I mean HE had plans of taking me skiing, snow tubing, and snowmobiling but the way the WIND WAS SET UP, we went to the local food town got some groceries and watched the Walking Dead Marathon...I had been missing it and I couldn't believe GLEN WAS STILL ALIVE, I KNEW IT!! I had a blast doing things on the compound and SHOPPING! I bought my first KATE SPADE bag, (I almost passed out in the store almost EVERYTHING WAS PINK!)

Now I had no idea where I was going, he just said pack a bag...I packed EVERYTHING!! These are three looks that I packed...needless to say he was pleased with them all. This weekend will go down as the first of many to come...take a look at my amazing weekend, what a lucky woman I am indeed!!



























Until next time my loves, 
No matter what anyone throws at you,
Keep it Sassy, Classy, Sexy, Period.
Lots of Love

    I just "found" your blog! I'm in the Mimi G group on FB and sew vicariously through you and the other members who post. I've been sewing for 50 years (that sounds crazy) but lately I'm concentrating on writing so my sewing room is in dire need of organizing. Maybe when I'm finished with my latest assignment. Anyway! I wanted to say I live south of the Poconos in the Lehigh Valley so you were out my way, girl! Did you go to the Crossings Outlets? I NEED to get there soon. Glad you had a great Valentine's weekend and hope you squashed those image thieves for good!

I'm a Survivor!!!!!

I'm a survivor I'm not gon' give up I'm not gon' stop I'm gon' work harder I'm a survivor I'm gonna make it I will survive Keep on survivin'- Destiny's Child (Dress: Tickled Pink stretch denim and camo maxi dress) I am the epitome of "I don't look like what I've been through", Weighing in a 3 lbs 5 ounces and 3 months premature I was born a survivor. My hope for this blog is to be a beacon of light and hope for someone that doesn't think they can make it... YOU CAN!! I am far from where I want to be, but right where I need to be! I've been working really hard over the last few weeks to get this blog off the ground...and what better season than Fall, where the weather and fashion can change like the color of leaves... Photo cred: Mr. B I know you must be thinking "Why now? Why at this time?" Well, I will tell you why, there is a reason why I did indeed pick this particular time and "...

Leather & Pearls/Giveaway!!!!

This is a story about Control My Control Control of what I say Control of what I do And this time, I'm gonna do things my way I hope you enjoy this as much as I do Are we ready? I AM Cause it's all about Control and I've got Lots of it! -Janet Jackson A lot easier than said sometimes, when we allow things from our past to control our present and potentially our future you can spiral out of control. So in my case I sew to stay in control and nothing says in control like some leather honey!!! In this dress I felt all the things my blog stands for: Sassy Classy, Sexy, Period. I've had this pattern McCalls 7047 in my stash for quite some time, However when Mimi G did a tutorial for it, of course I had to have my own. I had tons of faux leather in my stash and couldn't wait to tackle it! I opted for no sleeves or peplum (peplums make your bottom look bigger and I don't need any help in that area...LOL) I also loved the train instead of the straight bottom....

Open Letter to Mimi Goodwin & #MiMicItMonday

So on the beginning of my first week of blogging, I decided to pen an open letter to my mentor Mimi Goodwin... Dear Mimi, I had no idea that when I bought my sewing machine in 2011 what exactly I was gonna do with it, (that machine would go on to sit in the box for almost 2 years). In early July 2013, I discovered your blog on a friend's Facebook page, little did I know that this one click would change my life forever! I was headed toward a transition that I didn't see coming, my wedding engagement was coming to an end and it devastated me and  I felt lost. I knew I needed something to take my mind off of the pain I was feeling. I was headed in a downward spiral and no one knew it but me, and you Mimi Goodwin saved me from myself. So after I tried and SUCCESSFULLY completed 3 of your tutorials on the first try, I knew I had found my therapy. You were and still are always so kind, answering inbox questions without hesitation, offering help whenever I asked. You will never...
