Cloud Atlas & Cinder: Book Reviews and Rants.

I started out this week with Sample Sunday 48- Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel and then It’s a brand new day on YouTube.

On Monday, I recognized the U.S. holiday Labor Day.

On Tuesday, I added to my Character files Giovanni’s opinion on the Eternal Curse and then I posted an interview about The Book of The Way with author Tony W. Weaver.

On Wednesday, I shared #IWSG September 2014: Transitions and then a book review of Batman: Death Mask.

On Thursday, I posted A Day in a Life about Summer’s End.

And yesterday, I posted a brief Friday Forecast and then participated in the Wined, Dined, and Read Blog Tour.

Mira’s Closet: 5/19/14: Style Statement

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation: I don’t like pink, on me. I actually think pink is a very pretty color; I’m just not a very pink kind of girl. Usually when I say that I get the feeling people expect me to wear all black or denim overalls. BTW- I look awesome in black and I adore my overalls, but that’s not the point. I also happen to look good in yellow, all shades and hues of blue, brown, red, purple, and occasionally green. Have I worn pink before? Yes. Will I wear it again? Maybe if it’s for a good cause (hint hint wink wink 😉 ) I simply prefer to wear colors I feel comfortable in on a daily basis. That’s just one part of my personal style statement. How about you?

Now here are some style tips/clips from

Mira’s Closet: 4/21/14: What do clothes say?

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation:What a person wears doesn’t define them, but sometimes you can learn a lot about a person from their attire in certain situations. When someone who typically wears bright colors suddenly shows up in something dark or black, they may be trying to make a statement or come off more serious or stern than usual. For someone who wears dark clothing a lot, when they want to impress someone or seem more inviting they may try some lighter colors. But that’s just colors- what about styles. Do different styles say something about the person wearing them? I once had a friend who refused to wear jeans unless some sort of manual labor was involved. To him, denim lacked class. That’s what I like about fashion; there’s something for everyone even if everything isn’t for someone in particular, just like this blog. 🙂
