Long Break








I know I haven't blogged in a while..almost two months to be precise. I am still here! Work has been crazy, we have all been pulling 14 hour days at the office, so as you can imagine I have been exhausted. I thought that I would post today and show you what I bought on forever21.com this afternoon!

First up I bought two fitted t-shirts one red, one white for $4.50 each. I like to have basics in my closet so I can build around them. I bought the grey cami $3.50 and the black sweater which was $29.50. If you spend over $40 by 11.59pm on December 21 and enter code freeship09 you will also receive free standard shipping! So what are you waiting for??

Bright colors on a rainy day!

Dress: Tibi (bought at Outnet.com)
Cami: Kohls
Necklace: Kohls
Tights: Walmart
Shoes: Steve Madden

Today was sooooooooooooo dreary. That is why I decided to wear my bright red dress and blind everyone at the office! ha ha ha. It was nice to be wearing something so bright on such a horrible day. I love the cut of this dress and wanted to twirl like a ballerina, but thought better of it as I have a tendency to walk into a door frame or piece of furniture AT LEAST once a week, it's like I have no co-ordination whatsoever. Anyway I LOVE my dress and may have a quick twirl later!

Oh my Eye. MY EYE!!

Excuse the look on my face in this photo. I had just arrived home from the optician on Saturday after being told I had an infection in my cornea. If you have ever had this it is extremely painful!

Dentist appointment

Vest: XXI
Shirt: TJ Maxx
Pants: Gap
Shoes: Shoe Carnival
Today I had a dental appointment. Call me strange but I like going to the dentist. I have been going on a regular basis ever since I was 2 years of age! Anyway after a check up and a cleaning all is well. A good thing as the hygienist was vicious today! My gums still hurt! I think if the dentist had to fill a tooth I would have run screaming and pulling out my hair only to be tackled and bought down by said vicious hygienist and receptionist, all fours bound and lifted into the dentist chair!

Cardi: Gap
Top: Rave
Pants: Old Navy

I used to think sequins should be for going out at night only. Today I decided to wear sequins. It's actually a tank top. I felt sparkly and and sequinny all day. All I need now are Jazz Hands!! What are your thoughts of sequins in the office?

I lost Rachel Zoe because of the NFL

Cardigan: Gap
Top: EBAY
Pants: Old Navy
Shoes: Boutique 9
If you're a fan of Rachel Zoe, then you probably watch her show every Tuesday night. I was happily watching last night when my husband arrived home (he had a football game which is why he was late). Plonks himself down, grabs the remote and switches over to the game between Raiders and some other team right in the middle of my show!! So I put a hex on Raiders to lose, and they did...mwahmwahmwah!! Actually they lose all the time because they are rubbish. Hubby supports them though, I have no idea why. They get worse every year. That will teach you dear husband to turn off my fashion show!

Same pants different day!

Top: Marc by Marc Jacobs
Belt: Target
Pants: Gap
Shoes: Boutique 9
Bag: Wilson's Leather
I am wearing the same pants as I was on Saturday night, don't worry ladies they have been washed. This one one of the most comfortable outfits I have worn in a while. If I had worn my slipper socks (I am fashionable I know) I would have been right at home! I was late for work this morning as I had a dentist appointment, or so I thought. It's next Monday at 10am, not this Monday so I looked a bit of a plum this morning!

RIP Patrick Swayze

Patrick Swayze died today at the age of 57 after a valiant fight with cancer. Part of me really thought he would pull through and beat this awful disease. I was a little surprised when he passed away today, he looked a little better a few weeks ago, stronger. He must have gone downhill rapidly, a sad day for all Patrick Swayze fans. I remember wanting to be Baby in Dirty Dancing, I wanted to be Johnny Castle's girl, and grind and bump with him...never mind that I was only 14 or 15. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, Sir.

More than a little neglected!

Top: Gap
Pants: Gap
Shoes: Dolce & Gabbana
I have been a bad girl. I have neglected my blog again! Things at work have been so crazy all I have wanted to do when I got home is put on my comfy schleppy clothes, and crawl under the covers, although hubby has been demanding dinner before I go to bed...jeez! Managed to go out to dinner last night with hubby after a day of supervising a jamboree at the high school. The young children are so funny when they play football. Their helmets are as big as they are and when they tackle each other they bump each other and stop. It's really funny to see! This is the end of my story. Sweet dreams chicas!

But it's only 10.30!

Here I am sitting at my desk waiting for my boss to come to the office so we can finish up a project (he lives 90 miles away), and I am thinking about lunch...at 10.30 in the morning. Why? you ask. Well this it what happens when your husband's freaking cat paws and coos at you until you get up and let him out at 5 am! So I figured I would have breakfast early, now I want my lunch. I can wait until 11.30 I can, I can, I can!!!

I got the job...but

Top: Wet Seal
Belt: Nine West
Skirt: Old Navy
Shoes: ABS
Bag: Pucci
I went to the job interview I was talking about this morning, and I got the job. However the pay is over $1,000 a month less than I am making now. So, I will be staying for the mean time, and looking for a new job. To be honest I am BUMMED, but these things happen.

To make you smilez

I LOVE this photo. I wonder what that squirrel is thinking?

Yes I took a photo of what I wore grocery shopping!

Top: Kohls
Skirt: Gap
Shoes: Steve Madden
Bag: TJ Maxx
I know this is sad, but my dear readers I am padding out my blog so you'll have to bear with me! I will be back to regular posting soon. Maybe as soon as tomorrow! My problem is my work life is so stressful right now that I don't feel like blogging. I just want to come home and hide. How sad is that? On a brighter note I have an interview for the job I applied for tomorrow morning! Wish me luck!

Two Days One Post

Bag: Pucci
I'm sitting here figuring out what to write and my mind is blank as a piece of plain paper... This is Saturday's outfit, note the FAB new Pucci bag! I went to see Inglorious Basterds with hubby this weekend (not my choice) and to my surprise quite enjoyed it. Probably cos I was given chewy sweeties so I couldn't complain if I wanted too. Husband always knows how to shut me up!!.. Ha Ha hahaha HA! However, if I had lost a filling there would have been trouble!!

A brief update

No fashion post today... boy am I a slacker. Anyway I am looking for a new job. Something happened on Monday that made me so mad and made me cry, which never happens I almost quit on the spot. I told my husband and he is furious, and I mean FURIOUS!!!! I had to stop him from coming down to my office. Someone pushed me too far and everyone has their limit. I met mine going at 150 mph into a brick wall (metaphorically speaking). If I get this job and my boss asks why I have given in my notice I know exactly what to say.
I don't want to say too much about the job I have applied for, let's just say I have everything crossed. I am hoping to hear from them in the next few days. Keep all of your extremities crossed for me ladies!!
I will keep everyone updated.

I'm Back!


Dress: Newport News
Belt: Nine West
Shoes: Dolce & Gabbana
I'm still here, I have just been insanely busy at work and had lots of late nights. By the time I have come home and collapsed onto the living room floor it has been too late to post (or I couldn't be bothered). However, hubby would throw me over his shoulder like a caveman and plonk me down on the bed. Well, sometimes, other times he would just leave me there and step over me..lol. I should be back to regular posting now...

My new dress arrived

Top: Gap
Skirt: Vera Wang
Shoes: BCBG
My new dress arrived today, and I love it. As soon as I saw the UPS van pulled up I skipped out to meet him! Seriously, and I am sure he thinks I am a little insane. Well Mr. UPS man "I DON'T CARE!". I have my lovely new dress so :p. Tomorrow I am expecting another lovely package which will be my Pucci bag. I bet the UPS sees the name on it, throws it at me and runs...lol. No one wants to deal with the crazy lady! Getting parcels is so much fun!

Foot in mouth...literally.

Skirt: Old Navy

Before taking this photo I did not realize how high my boobies were. That's some cleavage! Anyway this has nothing to do with the title of this post. Last night while dozing off to sleep my husband's cat Chunkee Munkee comes up to me and starts chattering. He then puts his paw into my mouth (I shit you not). This of course woke me up spluttering. He was sitting looking at me so I began to pet him, much to his delight. Then guess what, he stuck a claw up my left nostril! I think he may be a little psycho. My husband thinks it's endearing. This is because he didn't get a whole paw shoved in his mouth as though fishing for something, or a claw up his nostril as though fishing for something (OK that was gross, I know). All I could think of was he buries his poo with those paws...eww!

I have no idea why this pic is so crappy. I swear I didn't move. I did more browsing at lunch time, this was before the shit hit the fan. I am so glad I got some retail therapy in. I needed it!

Blogging and shopping

This my dear readers is my latest acquisition. A Pucci handbag. Original price $520.00 sale price $182.00. I bought it from gilt.com and I got the last one! (I am doing a little victory dance in my office). I think this website is becoming a little dangerous for me...lolol. Anyway It is winging it's way to me as we speak. When I see the UPS man I will be running toward him, tackling him to the ground while yelling, Gimme!! Back to work now, actually it's lunch time and I'm starving! Hmmm...maybe I should go get lunch and browse some more...

I have not been around for a while. Well I have but I am currently in the middle of doing my Continuing Education so my Life and Health Insurance License does not lapse. I feel like I am back in school. These tests put me to sleep. I am sure some nerdy nerd came up with them. Luckily I only have to do them once every two years. Should be posting more this week, if my studies don't send me into a coma! This, readers is quite possible.

FAB New Dress!!!

I bought this dress by Tibi from outnet.com today $159.00 down from $390.00. Perfect for those dreary autumn and winter days. Nuff said!

Why do people drive me to the brink of insanity?

Dress: XXI
Shoes: Jessica Simpson
I swear I'm going to need a straight jacket. A lot of things have gone down this week, and not in a good way. That is why there have been no posts. on more than one occasion I have had to remind myself to breathe and count to 10 instead of actually hitting certain co-workers around the back of the head with a telephone directory.
If the drama isn't over by now then my next blog will be written from an mental institution by typing with my mouth as I will be wearing a straight jacket.

This was Wednesday's outfit. I may be updating you readers with a massive blog overload, for which I iz truly sorry, but I ended up with some stupid advertisement on my computer, which kept blocking me from sites. I finally zapped it with Norton. Note to people who did advertisement: You better be glad I don't know where you live bitches!

I love this skirt! It was one of the items that was lovingly delivered to me by our very nice UPS man, who looks just like Tiger Woods, in fact I call him Tiger. He probably thinks that I need to be sectioned or something. Anyway we're off to get a coffee and see The Ugly Truth. Gerard Butler...yummy!

Quiz Night

Dress: Hype
Leggings: Walmart
Shoes: BCBG
Can you believe this is a dress? I think it's better to try and keep my dignity than flash my lady bits, I am after all not a famous flasher (yes Britney Spears the whole world has seen your business!) I am also 5ft 8in and this was made for the short ladies out there. Anyway today was quiz night, and yes we sucked (well we came 5th, so teenie, tinie lie). Can you believe I have teachers on my team and that I am the only non-teacher! Anyway a few beers later I am home and chilling watching She's Got The Look. Which bitch will go home tonight girls?
