Gilmore Girls!

Photo

If I have ever had a conversation with you, you know I absolutely love the TV show Gilmore Girls. I have been collecting the DVDs for years and my friend Sox bought me the final season for Christmas. I have been watching Gilmore Girls since junior high school and there are rumors of a movie!! I really hope they are true. Do you have a TV show you grew up watching?

Pretty Little Outfits!

So I am slightly extremely obsessed with Pretty Little Liars. 

 

I especially love the outfits they wear. If I could permanently own everything they all own I would have the most amazing (and random) wardrobe ever. 

 

Here are a few outfits I picked out:

I think I could totally rock this outfit by Spencer. I love that cardigan (and actually have something similar in gray) and have a top like that in black. 

 

I might try to recreate it soon. I’ll keep you filled in. 

 

Also, I NEED to have this dress for an upcoming wedding or wedding shower

This is the closest I could find. It’s the same designer and color but it is strapless. I have also found the dress in other colors and it looks amazing! The designer is Sue Wong. She has amazing dresses. My sister bought a dress last spring for a wedding of a very good friend and she got tons of compliments on it.

The problem? The $548.00 price tag. I will just have to wait for it to go on sale. Unless someone knows where I can get a Sue Wong dress really cheap… 

Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn’t Need You? ‘Cause I Wouldn’t Believe You If You Said The Same To Me

Hey friends!! So I have a surprise for you!!! A brand new outfit! I’m very proud of it too. I had a pretty rough week last week. I’m not going to go into it but it just wasn’t an amazing week and I’m hoping for some good news this week. 

 

I hope I get it.

Can you believe I wore heels all day in this crazy Chicago winter?

 

Yea.. That’s because I didn’t. hehehe. I tried them on when I got home and they looked kind of nice so I left them on. I actually wore my cowboy boots shown here during the rest of the day. 

 

Anyway, I’ve become slightly obsessed with Dexter. You know the show about the serial killer? It’s interesting, and who doesn’t love Julia Stiles? Have any of you started watching a great TV show lately? 

Currently Listening To: Skeptics and True Believers by The Academy Is.. (I used to love this song).

Frying Pans… Who knew, right?

Hey everyone! As you all know I’ve been working two jobs, so I don’t EVER have a day off. Usually if I’m not at either job I’m working from home. Well, I had a little time this week, and I actually went to see Tangled (twice). I went last week and I went again tonight. We were the only people in the theater, which was fabulous and the movie wouldn’t play so I was able to get us free popcorn. When I went to the concession stand, I told them what happened and the young man behind the counter seemed so weirded out by my enthusiasm that when I kept pestering him for free slurpees, he gave them to me! So I was able to get 3 free slurpees (one for each of my friends and me) and free popcorn! 

It was a wonderful outing if I do say so myself. :) 

 

Tangled was fabulous and I think everyone should go see it, even if you aren’t into cartoons. Also…yes.. I may actually like him better than Aladdin.

<3 Happy Monday! 

I’m falling asleep as I write this..

Hello Readers! I’m falling asleep as I write this but I wanted to get a post out today. How was everyone’s week? I am so tired. I have worked every day for the last 2 and a half weeks. I won’t have a day off for another week as well. It’s really tiring. In addition to my Banana Republic job, I started a job at a search marketing firm last week and while I have great manager, it is intense work. 

I also worked election day last Tuesday and as always: it was a nightmare. 

 

Here is a random outfit. I wore it last Sunday (sorry for the tardiness).

Cowboy Boots!

Hey everyone! So I bought these cowboy boots a few weeks ago and wear them a lot. I love them! I purchased them at Old Navy and I just can not say enough good things about them. They were really inexpensive, maybe $30 or $40 and definitely worth every penny. Do you have any great fall boots?
