About Me
- Name: LPC
- Location: Silicon Valley, California
I am a 54-year old executive and mother, brought up in privilege. Standing still for a moment to examine the implications. If you are concerned with style, objects of beauty, social anxiety, and the raptures of life I want to offer some assistance. For more, try this link: http://bit.ly/bD5HO4. You can also reach me at my email: skyepeale@yahoo.com. That's the name I wanted to be called when I was 16. Ah. 16.

Even in my 20's, I couldn't have pulled that off. Blessed with too many curves, even then.
We are loving this, and everything he is doing of late. His first Liz collection was fabulous and even tho' we're not quite the size/shape/age for this lovely, we still adore the colors and whimsy!

Nooooo. No no no no no.
I cannot be that bright. Some people can be bright. Not me.
This may be one of those Sandy Koufax moments. He said, apparently, "The older I get, the better I was." Perhaps I could not have worn this either. But let me preserve my illusions of my youth.
