A Few Things

I didn't post yesterday because I was bogged down from going out of town over the weekend.

Looks like Leah and I both needed a getaway...just not together. Sad face.

I liked my outfit so much I thought I'd do a double post. Gotta love the buffalo check!

Ignore my face. Just look at the outfit.

All j.crew-shoes-gap. belt-madewell

today's outfit:

hello fingers. you need a manicure.

This was an awkward moment. A coworker, who could very well be reading this blog right now totally saw me in an awkward, cheesy moment of having my picture taken. It was so awkward I couldn't cover it up. So awkward (have I said it was awkward?) in fact, I couldn't get Lesley to keep the camera still to take a pic, and this is the best I got. I actually think it was this exact moment he saw me getting my picture taken. So now, the co-worker knows about the blog. He's using it as leverage against me. In a funny...but not so funny way.

I've read about it on several other blogs and I must ask-When IS the right time to come out of the blogging closet?

Double Dose

I flew into Dallas yesterday. Last night, I rode the light rail downtown with a friend and we met up with another friend and had a great time. I needed a quick OOTD pic, so in the middle of the bar she snapped one for me. I look horrible at this point, because I'd already been to work, flown to Dallas, been on the rail, and been at the bar for a couple hours. It's actually a maxi dress and I threw a top over it. I'm really into that sort of thing these days.

dress: macy's

top: gap

shoes: target

This morning, I made a quick trip to my favorite j.crew outlet store. Some people hate on the j.crew outlet for the quality, etc. I've never had a problem and the two personal shoppers who always help me there are absolutely awesome. I loaded up on some great spring threads, which I am sure you will see in coming weeks!

(top and shorts are both j.crew-shoes:toms)

This is actually what I wore to the store. It was kind of funny because I bought the top last time I was in and my PS commented on how cute my outfit was. She also mentioned that I should work in the store and then remembered I live 300 miles away from the nearest j.crew. Sad face.

Can I just say for a quick second what made my day? Well, many things "made my day," but there was one moment in particular. I checked my personal email at work for a quick minute, and lo and behold-I won my first blog giveaway! I enter them all the time and always hope that one day I'll win! And I did! You can see the post here. Plus, if you don't read kindovermatter-it is awesome and inspirational!

a year ago i went all the way to sweden. i came back with a pearlsnap denim shirt from Zara (i bought other stuff too, don't worry). only working 1/2 day today. good news of the week: my taxes are done. complete. finished. ahh...what a nice feeling. 

name that decade

Has anyone ever heard of the show $%!@ My Dad Says? Okay, I've never seen it before, but I've heard about it. I should have a show and call it more appropriately "Stuff my students say..." Below are a few comments of the day on my outfit:

(circa 7:45 am) "Oh girl! Snap! You look you from the 70's!"

(circa 11:20) "Miss! You look like a Barbie Doll! I love Barbie dolls!"

(circa 2 pm) "Hey....miss...you look like old school today."

seasons

when do you officially start to
transition from one season to another?
do you judge it by the weather
or the date on the calendar?
i have to say, come march 1st,
and you'll see my wardrobe start to change.
i'll still wear the occasional fall/winter
piece to move into spring, but i guess i'm
a date on the calendar kinda girl.

top: the limited

pants: gap

i love this new top.

it's great for winter and to move into spring.

stripes are HUGE right now.

everyone is wearing them, yo.

shoes: sam edelman

even though my sam's are suede, 

i can easily find ways to wear

them into spring.

they're too cute to put away until fall!

hope you had a great weekend.

let's do this, mondey.
