Carpe Diem

I am just surfacing from my pharmacology book briefly to say hello! I have lots of new recipes to share soon - hopefully Friday. In the meantime, here is a cute DIY project to bookmark for that rare sunny winter day or for a few months down the road. Too clever!

Easy, adorable flower clips

I saw this video and loved the idea. I love wearing hair accessories and this video demonstrates a great way to make your own. It is also a great Stocking Stuffer this Christmas.

Pink and Turquoise

I am always looking for a new way to wear some of my favorite pieces already in my closet. This outfit led me to dig out a favorite three-quarter length sleeve magenta sweater. I am on the hunt for a turquoise scarf and a neutral, versatile bag now!

How do you renew some of your oldie, but goody winter staples? (It even can work for our tiny tots!)

More Then One Way to Use Your Socks

One of the things I love about blogging is that everyone can share imaginative, creative ideas. For example, this blogger shared her secret to creating the perfect ballerina-like bun. It is simple, easy, and free (if you have one of those annoying unmatched socks floating around).

Winter Wishes

This winter my number one wish item is the Sorel Women's Joan Of Arctic Boot. But after being unemployed for a year, and now returning to school, nursing school more specifically, wish items are rarely being purchased. Luckily for me, my wish item has a doppelganger.  Target comes to my rescue once again. I believe this winter, the Champion® Natausha Fur Trimmed Lace Up Winter Boot will be my footwear of choice! 

Have you had any luck finding a less expensive version of your winter wish item?

Welcome!

We, The Darwin Girls, would like to welcome you our blog - our blog about everything under the sun. The four of us met in sunny Florida at Eckerd College, and have been a family ever since. Darwin was actually a dorm that housed most of our family at one time or another. Although we are now living in four different states, we are still in touch. Throughout the year we meet as often as possible for graduations, weddings, showers, and girls only reunions. Our blog content will span everything - and we mean everything - religion, family, relationships, school, parenting, travel, art, cooking, sewing, photography, and perhaps even politics!

Thank you for stopping by, and we hope to hear from you soon.
