CBModa

A few friends suggested this and I am finally stepping up to the challenge (not sure why I haven’t done it yet, but am sure I will find out in the process) I guess I will consider it the very first of my new hobby: introducing Cleo Bond Moda, as I call it #cleobondmoda.

SO, WHAT IS MY 'STYLE' ABOUT?

At this point, it is a collection of clothes and shoes I have carefully accumulated over 20 years. Some were new when I found them, but most are second-hand from friends/family closets, consignment stores and estate sales. I am not sure what fashion categories my style belongs, so if you have suggestions - don’t be shy to share.

In the merciless heat of central Texas, I would rather cover up instead of exposing skin. I burn easily and very painfully and if I can skip on applying thick layers of sunscreen - I am all for it! This particular morning (photo) I went to the farmers market in this outfit which is perfect for open air shopping.

I feel attractive as well as professional in this ensemble; it was an easy transition to make me feel like autumn! Divided my attention to my plants after work and so comfy, I postponed the customary immediate dive into pajamas after entering my home.
