Fashion Friday
It’s been quite a long time since I’ve shared some of my fashion photos. For fun, I like to share some of my outfits on Instagram, and I do have a passion for fashion. I’ve always loved clothes and dressing to suit either my mood or my personality. And I often wear black, which started to get on my nerves, but then I searched Jennifer Aniston on Pinterest and realized that she also embraces her love of the color black. And writers—we writers just love to wear the color black. So, I just gave up on trying to become more colorful with my garments…and will continue to strive to be…

Fashion Friday: Summer Maxi Dresses & A Versatile Duster
* What is STYLE? 👠 How do you define the word? Here’s my take, for what it’s worth. Style isn’t about what you wear, it’s about how you feel about what you wear. Style also isn’t about labels and expensive clothes: you can look good in inexpensive clothes if you learn what cuts work best on your figure and body type. Sometimes I try something that’s really trendy because it looks so great on someone who is tall and thin, but on me, someone who is short and curvy, it just looks silly. I still like to look contemporary, but I know what’s within my zone. Occasionally, I do try…

A Little Fashion Friday
Next week, it’s back to campus, and back to being a little more professionally dressed than wearing leggings and jeans every day. It’s been a comfortable month, but I am always excited to see my students’ faces and be back in the classroom with them–and to have a reason to wear some of my new things to school. I’m hoping to post more fashion this year here on Steph’s Scribe besides just what I do for FROCKTOBER in October…I just love it. It’s my little thing I do for fun. I’ll be sharing my wardrobe on Fridays on Instagram (stephanie.verni), and I’ll post here, too, although sometimes I like to…

FROCKTOBER Fashion- Week 3 Recap
For the better part of this week, I was sick with a bad head cold, and yet, I made it to all of my classes and meetings. I don’t like to disappoint my students and will show up unless I have a fever or have flu-like symptoms. That’s my game plan. It was a busy week with Stevenson University’s Homecoming and meetings with fellow faculty and students. We had a lot going on! These were the looks from the week. I also snuck in a girls night out with my friend Elizabeth to see the imomsohard tour at MGM National Harbor on Friday night. We laughed until we cried. Honestly,…

Wednesday Wardrobe – The Petite Professor: Rompers & Jumpsuits
*** Jumpers and Rompers are HOT this year. Why? Because… They are easy and breezy. They are one piece, and a one-piece item (same color top and bottom) does not break the visual line of clothing, therefore making you look taller and often more slender. They are comfortable. They can be dressed up or down. They are a great alternative to a skirt, dress, or pants. They look elegant without trying very hard. If you haven’t tried one yet, you may want to do so. You can find them everywhere, from Marshall’s to Anthropologie and Banana Republic (pictured below). You can spend very little or spend a fortune. The two…

A Love of Fashion: Ageless & Timeless
* If you follow me on Instagram, you know I post a lot of pics of me in my work and casual clothes, the bargains and designer stuff, as well as the cheaper fashions simply because I have a #loveoffashion and am a #fashionenthusiast. (I use those hashtags all the time when posting on Instagram.) While my side job of being an independent author drives me, and I spend a lot of time writing and promoting books, I do consider it a second JOB. However, my love of fashion is just a side PASSION and HOBBY. I do it for enjoyment and amusement, for me, and I like to share…
