The French word "atelier" might sound highfalutin, but it simply means "workshop" or "studio." It doesn't matter whether it's a sun-drenched loft with a view of the Eiffel Tower, or a converted garage with a view of the driveway; an atelier is a space to think, to dream, and to create.

In a previous post, I recalled my attempts to sing in preparation for our high school musical Guys and Dolls. Naturally, I also needed to learn some nifty dance routines courtesy of Ms. Greene, the director/choreographer. So, in addition to stretching my already strained vocal chords, I tried to coordinate two left feet while she breathed fire every time I took a false step.

I am obsessed with collecting scarves. Despite living in sunny Southern California, I keep buying more!

Why this unabashed affection for a toasty neck wrap? Because a scarf is the perfect accessory. It dresses up any outfit, never goes out of fashion, and — thanks to the recent trend of lighter summer scarves — can be sported year-round. Plus, unlike a necktie, a scarf can be worn several ways: Draped, looped, layered, knotted, or elegantly tossed over one shoulder!
