Bundle Up with Care!

Is it ridiculous to purchase all four of these coats for the winter?  I really want every one of them.  All four coats came from the plus size line of Old Navy.  Isn't that grand?  Each of them appealed to me in some kind of way and the price range makes you want to swoon with all four of them are priced under a $100 per coat.

Mad Style: Solange

Solange takes fashion to a new level by creating an individualistic approach to her style. You check her out and say to yourself, "I like that. But I could never pull that off." 

Mad Style says you can!

Mentor-less

My friend Katrice at the blog My Vicarious Life lost one of her mentors.  Her most recent blog posting highlighted a warm tribute to their relationship - after reading the post I came to the conclusion that he was astounding as a mentor.  It compelled me to ask the question:

Who is my mentor?



I am ashamed to say that I have never had a mentor as an adult.  I had people that I admired and aspired to please but never someone that placed a investment in me by pushing me towards my dreams and goals without giving up.  Someone that was my own personal cheerleader that was equipped with wisdom, consistency and life skills modeling.  At the age of 37 I have made the decision that I too want a mentor. 

If I could place an ad - it would reflect the following:

MENTOR NEEDED

Willingness to share knowledge

Life role model

Values ongoing growth

Effective & Direct communication

Assist in goal setting

Provides guidance and constructive feedback

Demonstrates a positive attitude

Does anyone know someone that fits the ad?
