You can readTerri’s post here: Is it Autumn yet (or spring)?

Travel on the Horizon

We're off on an adventure, so stay tuned! I'm not sure if I'll be writing any posts while I'm away but I have scheduled a few for linkups during the month. #WWWhimsy

I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again… Anticipation is one of the most exciting feelings in the world.

The anticipation of travel always fills me with excitement and wonder. I’ve also just found a study that says travelling can make you look younger. Now…

I'm NOT a personal shopper and these are the 9 things you'll ALWAYS find in my wardrobe

What 9 items will you always find in my wardrobe, as opposed to a fashion writer who wrote a similar article about what 9 things you wouldn't find in her wardrobe. Each to their own!

It was written by a fashion editor…
