There is definitely a training period as Ruby needs to get used to the feel of the new collar, but she stopped pulling almost immediately. The girls and I hit my favorite thrift store this week.

I am not really one for the maculine/structure look, so this actually turning into a "real" challenge for me, but I decided to wear this dress over my blue button down oxford, navy tights; add my nude sandals (it was almost 65 degrees here today, so it was definitely time to whip these babies out) and my nude belt.

My wedding dress, thrifted! It’s not hard for me (anymore) to avoid expensive stores or fast fashion sites such as Shein and Temu, and instead shop at thrift stores or use my local BuyNothing group. I live in the Midwest with my fiancé (soon to be husband in March!), I mostly work remotely which is very, very nice.

So, I just threw on jeans and a sweater; nothing special, but definitely warm- which was surely needed. Also, I added my cream suede belt that I thrifted on Saturday at Goodwill, my cream Kenneth Cole watch (side not about this watch: I got it at Overstock.com about 4 years ago for $3. It is my best bargain to date).

This is definitely not a deluxe greenhouse. I have dreams, aspirations and delusions that I'm going to grow annual flowers and some vegetables from seed. I have yet to discuss my madness with my husband and they can get pretty expensive to buy new, so I haven't pursued getting one yet. It is most likely a beginner model.
