Rose A La Mode

Time to Travel (Outfit 10)

by //

Today Bob and I talked about our freedom. (Not the kind we have because we live in America, although that is AMAZING.) But the kind we have now. Both working from home, no kids, etc. And we wonder how we can better take advantage of it. When I first quit my job I was aching for a road trip, but we didn’t do it. Why not? I am not sure.

So now we’re talking about all the places we want to go! Fly south for the winter, spend a month or two in Italy eating their yummy food, visiting family, visiting other bloggers :), etc.

Do you have any suggestions? Where are some great places to visit?

Welcome to another popping list of goodies from around the internet! This will be the last “it” list for 2010… as it will go on hiatus for the holidays. Look for it’s return in 2011!

  • rose a la mode catches up on her 30/30 outfits and my favorite is this gorgeous pink scarf that is sun drenched in fall light. So gorgeous!
  • stylish dish features fall to winter must-haves for stylish moms, but I think her list is perfect for any stylish gal. Mother or not!
  • fashionably southern is rocking a gorgeous faux fur vest… I love seeing how different ladies style this season’s fun trend.
  • fashion confessions of a mommy has a winning combo with a graphic tee + scarf + blazer. I need to recreate this look! Casual and chic!
  • jewelscapes brilliantly pairs stripes with plaid. I never would have thought of this, but love it so! And of course she is always perfectly accessorized!
Have a safe and Happy Holidays from the “it” list!
  • i love this pretty vintage bourbon decanter from one sweet find. It could serve as a water pitcher at a holiday on your Thanksgiving or Christmas table or would be a great gift to any collector in your life!
  • one hundred inspirations recreates this party-perfect Blake Lively look on a dime. Love this!
  • i’m swooning for these pint sized clogs by Free people on good tots! it doesn’t get cuter than this!
  • on a serious note… karina, ink puts beautiful and truthful words to smiling through suffering. take a minute to take her words to heart and support those in your life that live amazing lives in the face of struggles. we love you Karen!
  • sweetie pie style gives us a run down of the top ten OTK (over-the-knee) boots… it almost impossible to choose a favorite here. So lovely!
  • spry on the wall outlines “uniform” outfits for us that are black on black – which happens to be one of the easiest combos and one of my favorites!
  • i just LOVE this look from closet confections. I rarely think to pair black with blue and she did it so wonderfully here. Plus a leopard print belt – the girl can do no wrong!
  • jillgg’s good life launched her WINTER & HOLIDAY 2010 looks:book – a gorgeous mini e-mag full of practical and gorgeous wardrobe inspiration for the season. Check this out!

Favorite Food (Outfit 9)

by //

I am the kind of girl that once I like something, I don’t want anything else. Whether it’s a new shirt, a person, or a meal. Then, after a while, I get really sick of it. (I don’t think this rule applies to people tho.) I ate Honey Nut Cheerios everyday for about 3 years and I never want to have them again.

Do you do this?

Anyway, my current favorite meal is sauteed yellow squash and zucchini. Just cook it up in a pan with a little butter and a bunch of salt and pepper and you’re good to go! Sometimes I’ll even throw spinach in it.

What is your current go-to meal?
