A Reason To Shine
We started out in the girls dept and now, here’s out take on boys… Grade 5 this year seems like a big deal. Like, so grown up. And yet, these guys and their friends are in that sort of sweet spot where they’re not TOO grown up and not TOO little. Maybe just on the…
I can still be cool, right? At least while my kiddos are 8, 10 & 10. Arguably my daughter has other opinions, ALREADY, but what evs. What it really comes down to is finding items that you can both agree on. As a mom, I want a lot of value for my $$. That means…
How are my Redefining Casual and Ballerina Fashionista readers doing? I’m sorry for the hiatus in the fashion department here on LLDC. We recently sold our house and are in the process of moving into our new house in just a few weeks! EEK! That means along with the return of fashion posts, you will…
What do you look for when you plan a vacation? I look for a place that’s relaxing, has great scenery, and lots of activities my whole family can enjoy. So naturally I chose Alaska. Many of you would not immediately think of heading to Alaska on vacation but seriously, the place has it all. …
Hello again Darlings! It’s been a while. I had a whirlwind month of May with a ton of last minute school assignments and my ballet theatre’s production of Cinderella. Then a week after school ended, my family went on a cruise to Alaska! Keep checking back to see photos, packing lists, and a trip summary….
The only thing that looks worse on me than jeans is shorts. Okay, capris look bad too but I think they look bad on everyone so I don’t even consider them an option. The thing is I’m short, like barely 5’4″ on a good day, and I’m a little on the chubby side with strong,…
Since I”ve been being more selective with my clothing purchases, I try to make sure every piece I buy is versatile and classic. What I”ve come to understand about fashion is that it rotates with most trends popping up again every decade or so. Or certain pieces are always in style but gets tweaked to…
Warmer weather is slowly creeping in and I love the fresh new feel it gives me. I love spring! I love the feeling of newness and that adventure awaits. I also find spring is when I redefine my tastes in music, movies, clothing, and media, often going for lightness in everything. Carefree, light music, light…
As someone who had always loved clothing and fashion, I have also tended to overspend on clothing while at times ignoring what I really need. As a teen, my parents always bought the things I needed like underwear and pajamas and I would buy the things I really wanted like a new shirt. After I…
I’m looking at my wardrobe and realize I am seriously lacking jeans and pants. This isn’t new. Being pear shaped, I have always hated my lower half no matter my weight or pant size. Now that I’m sitting at the heaviest I’ve even been, I look back and wish I appreciated my smaller legs when…

With the weather warming up, I look for dresses that are a one and done type piece. Who wants to wear unnecessary layers when you are ready to crawl out of your own skin because it’s so hot? Instead of wearing clothing that can barely be called such, and showing too much skin, I opt for…

Have you ever seen a clothing item that you absolutely love but it’s either not to your modesty standards or it’s too expensive? I have this experience way too often. However, I’ve learned that if I like a style, I can find a modest version at a reasonable price although it may slightly differ. When…

I’ve never been to Coachella before but I would go in a heartbeat not only for the music, but all the cute festival clothing too. I mean Coachella style is like hippie meets chic and though it’s not normally my go to, I find it’s rather comfortable to dress this way. Plus, it’s a thrown on…

Hello darlings! You might recognize me from my other posts, but more likely you will recognize my writing style as that of Ballerina Fashionista’s. Yes, I am her mother and the genius behind her style….and I write her posts. She is a very busy 12 year old who likes fashion but lacks the time to…

I love this time of year! Easter is in just a few days and I get to spend the whole day eating good food and playing with my cousins. Spring is upon us and I have been loving the warmer temperatures. We’ve had quite a few days where the temperature hit mid 60s and you…
