"the deer that goes aw"

when jenn and i were in the 8th grade, 
we were really strange.
we used to find humor in the most bizarre things.
but it made us "us".
(newsflash: we're still strange.)
anyway, one time, we were at a restaurant
in college station, tx.
i think it was a barbecue place.
anyway, there was a deer head mounted on the wall,
which is super common here in the lone star state.
this deer happened to slightly have his/her mouth open.
so we dubbed him/her, "the deer that goes aw!!"
we talked about it for years. it died down though.
UNTIL NOW.
please notice my scarf!!! thank you, santa claus!

say au revoir to the $5 broken wally world mirro.
i'm still playing around with the location of it, but for now, I feel pretty high class...in a self-photo-blogger-way, if you get my drift.
by the way, yes...it is my first time publicly to only wear leggings and i'm really digging the comfort level right now.
despite the fact the friend i went to lunch with gave me a hard time about being pants-less.
thoughts on public legging wear?

snow bunny

Like Leah, my husband and I took a couple days of vacation to Ruidoso, New Mexico for some skiing and fun in the snow. The weather was amazing and it snowed every day we were there. My husband has been taking trips to Ruidoso to his family's cabin since he was a little boy, so it was fun to share memories with him.

Salida, Colorado

Tim and I recently returned from our Colorado vacation.
it was so beautiful.
we went with my parents - it was a great time.
we ate chicken fried steak, drank local beer and bought a rug.
also, it was Tim's first time skiing, he did great!
enjoy some pictures.

keeping the legs warm

I love this dress. I've worn it a million times since I got it last year but could only seem to find one other picture of it. Oh well!
In case you haven't noticed, I am in love with tall socks and now...introducing...LEGWARMERS!
Yeah for winterizing an outfit, because it is cold here y'all.
P.S. Where all my winter bloggers out there? I never see any snow on the ground in any of the other style/fashion blogs I read! I need some people who can sympathize with winter dress!
In other news, check me out at Cute and Little's 50th color brigade post! You can vote for my outfit for the next 6 days!

too cold, too cold

Name the title of the 90's song that I named this post after.
We're in the middle of having a blizzard...praying school doesn't get cancelled tomorrow since we are about to go on break Thursday for two weeks. I wore this outfit one day last week before it got mega cold outside. This is another top I can't wait to wear over and over again!
