I really would love to respond to your comments...

But Google has something very BAD going on, and when I try to respond to comments, I get transferred to a page for RIPT;;, whatever the heck that is.

To clarify the sponsorship thing - it's through Nordstrom -I'm going to be posting a lot of my usual links which will route to the product on Nordstrom's site; I will use their site as my starting point for finding items to include in my ensembles.  Any purchases will then generate a wee bit of revenue for me.  I'm not going to the south of France on these proceeds, but I might be able to pay for my own dry cleaning and shoe repairs...  But rest assured that I'm not going to compromise my aesthetic standards just to find something on a fee-generating site - I will go wherever it takes to find the perfect scarf, or shoe, or tee shirt, to make my blog posts as beautiful as possible.

I love you all - thanks so much for your patience as Google jerks us all around and gets on our last nerve...
