Details of my outfit!


This belt was a gift from my mother in law. She used to be a true hippie on those "Aquarius" days... Silver Dollar Coins!

Jewelry of the day!




Right hand: a combination of H&M rings ($3.99) and a ring that my husband gave me as a present in Savannah that matches perfectly. And my adored old Rolex.

Left hand: a combination of a Chanluu bracelet, gold fill cuff bracelets and a red leather bracelet. Along with the engagement, wedding, anniversary and all the rings that a good relationship brings :)

Hope you like it!

day 1

Hi, my name is Melanie…Truthfully, I never thought I’d be doing something like this…what for?
Recently, though, I realized something was missing…not in my life per se, but rather in my inability to connect with others like me. Of course, I find like minds in fashion blogs where boots, bags, jackets, dresses and jeans are discussed…and I connect with others who do make-up ‘how-to’s’, and with still others who offer their insights regarding hairstyles and the latest products…Yet there remained something missing…
Ultimately, I found myself drawn not merely to the fashion, make-up and hair blogs, but to the few women who in the process of explaining ‘how-to’ also managed to inject a sense of humor, share a little about themselves and/or expose their own insecurities – In other words, my interest in them was based more on identifying with them as women…and less as a like-minded consumer of beauty products and the latest in the fashion world. Women like………..and particularly Donna.
Nevertheless, I remained only partially satisfied. As wonderful as these women were, I still had not found what I was looking for…
And then it hit me. I had been watching American women – English speaking women. Where were my fellow ex-patriots? Where were the hundreds and thousands of Central and South American women who had fled their homeland for a better life? Where were the American Latinas?
