That Traveling Bug Bit Me. Again

I've wanted to learn French for as long as I can remember.  I'm not sure why I didn't take it in college.  I took Italian, and being that I knew a decent amount of Spanish, I now speak a fairly fluent mixture of the two. Ughhh, so annoying.   But back to French.  It's the most beautiful languageI've ever hear.  When I was younger I remember being at an airport and not wanting ot leave the terminal where a French couple were just sitting there talking.   And when I finally got to go to Paris a couple years ago, I thoroughly enjoyed using the few phrases I knew to get about the city. And being that France is just so darn beautiful, my most recent of goals is to master the language and then take a tripto test it out.  Now, my question is, has anoyone tried Rosetta Stone, and does it work....

Better Window Than Door

Sweaters are a wardrobe staple I gravitate towards.  They're cozy, can be dressed up, worn billions of ways, and I'm always bummed to put them away for the summer months.  But alas, this problem is solved with one of spring's hottest trends - open weave sweaters!  They're delicate, and the perfect companion to white tanks and maxi skirts.  Or denim cut-offs and pretty bras.  Or sultry sundresses and gladiator sandals (am I proving how versatile these beauties are, or what!?)  They're the perfect go-to when summer evening get brisk but not cool, and can be worn this annoying time of year when we're all wanting to dress for spring but temperatures are still freezing (because they're perfect with layers.)  Get a feel for the look below....
