It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

Buh-bye skinny jeans (okay not really~darn!) and HELLO Mr. Wide Leg.

I missed you. Really! Your sister Ms. Skinny hasn't really been working out for me. Or for 75% of the population in my opinion. Especially for that girl I saw in Jamba Juice but that's a story for another day.

Anyway...

I welcome you back to the runways with open arms and wedge shoes. Now only if I could get my postpartum jelly butt to fit in a pair of you. Wish me luck. And bless me with the will power to stop eating the freakin pie. Stupid pie!

Do you dare?

Weekend Happenings

Drooled over THESE shoes.

Broke a tooth. Yep. Was chewing gum and next thing I knew 1/2 my tooth was gone.
Good times.

Wished my Ikea version cowhide rug was as cool as this one.

Inspired by this wallpaper.

Caught up on this trashy TV show.

How was your weekend?

It's Monday again. Yipee!

It's FFF (Fabulous Fashion Friday) For Home

Do I need therapy because I'm considering this poster for my kitchen?

If I hung it in my kitchen would my guests be offended?

Did you know that I love cake?

Did you know that I have never ever ever in my whole entire life made

a chocolate cake~from scratch?

Maybe I'll try THIS one.

Here's to a lovely weekend and CAKE!

Home Sweet Home for the Accessories

Ooh la la yes please!

Ooh la la no thanks I'll pass!

A little ring there, a sentimental bracelet there. Do you have proper storage for your accessory collection? Now days we're seeing many more decorative options to show off our jewels rather than just plopping them inside an outdated cherry wood, gold trimmed box. I must confess. I would need an entire room to display all the tacky accessories that make up my personal collection. And no, I'm not bragging about my excessive collection. More like making fun of all the crap I have held on to over the years. (Thank you Forever XXI.) But I have chosen a few display worthy pieces and the rest live in shoe boxes. Most of my displays come from antique stores or TJ Maxx. Be creative and look outside your jewelry box to find fun displays!

Show off the things you love!

Happy jewelry box shopping!

Pretty Face

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS (fairly) new product from Benefit. I have no problem letting the world know that I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to cosmetics. BUT....when I find something I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE I want to share. I purchased this a couple weeks ago and can't go a day without it. What is it? Um, not exactly sure what cosmetic category this product would fall under but once you have all your make up on you dab, dab, dab it all over the face for a perfectly pinkish, pearl luminous glow. Did I mention that I LOVE this? Feeling a little blah? Got the winter blues? Skin need a pick-me-up? Buy this happy little wonder. You will LOVE it too. I promise. The end!:D

P.S. I mentioned that I LOVE THIS product right?

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

I tried, it failed. The slouchy short in front longer in back slightly sheer T trend.
Cute in the pics, cute on the hanger, ugly on my body.
What do you think?
Do you dare?
No thanks for me. However I totally dig THIS.
(I refuse to pay this much for a top-or dress- but it is super cute. I tried it on pretending like I could afford it.)

New Year, New Us

You'll never know until you try!

Welcome to the first Monday in 2011.

This year I encourage us all to try something new, to continue to love ourselves through all our mistakes and to find satisfaction in our journey.

Be bold. Be brave. Be YOU!

And don't forget...a great pair of shoes can change your life!
