We're Moving to Georgia!

This Blogger is about to move from NY to Georgia!
Time for a new journey for my family and for this Blog.


I have always posted Dress A Girl Around the World Inspirations.
Now I have no idea what the Lord has in store for me,
 so my subject matter will have to be
TBD...


I look forward to the day when I know the destination of this Blog,
but until then
 have a wonderful summer, dream big and pray!


Love,


Tara Corcimiglia
A Georgia Peach as of July!
