First off, thank you for all your kind comments and concerns. Things have quieted down a little around these parts. My grandmother, whom we are all the main caretakers of, had a hospital visit but is recovering well. At the same time, I also chose to resign my job at a school as support staff to pursue the riskier but more rewarding subbing avenue. I'll be taking the plunge into this new career in a little over a week. So as you can see it has been an exciting (but ultimately positive) time of change around here. No need for any worry though!

We stopped to take these photos coming home from a hospital visit last weekend. The orangish tint is due to all the smoke in the air (hence the title of this post). We're actually in some mountains called the Beartooth Mountains though, not "Ole Smokey." And truthfully, it might still be a bit hot out for this look if we were anywhere but in the mountains. But I was feeling so inspired by the film  Sabrina  and her outfit when they went sailing and sang "Yes, We Have No Bananas!" Such a charming scene! Of course, Hepburn's sophisticated makeover in the movie starts by chopping off her ponytail, but I like my long locks, so here they are in the ponytail. Wedges, flanel, shorts- an easy, do-able look!

  1. Glad to hear you're doing okay! Good luck with your job, although I'm sure it's a bit scary, that's so exciting to be starting a new one. And best wishes to your grandma! You look so cute here, the plaid button down and shorts go so well together.

  2. I am a fan of plaid shirts! It makes me feel masculine, relaxing, chic , and yet sexy. It' s so challenging to play dress up with the plaid top too. There are no limits when it comes to PLAID. Thanks for following. I am now following you as well. Keep in touch. xo
