So sick!

I feel soooo sick! I don't really know what I have, but I'm visiting a doctor to get myself checked out. It's a cross between a cold and lord knows what. I hope it's nothing serious. Anyway i finally got batteries for my camera and started to mess around with some of the settings. Since it's Christmastime I figured I'd take a couple pics of the decorations in my room. On my desk are some adorable lights I purchased in Boarders before it closed at my local mall. It's battery powered and has four different shapes. 

Here's what it looks like on my desk. You can see one of my dozens of nutcracker which I'll show in a later post. Also you can see Hello kitty and cows, the main theme of my room lol.

I'm missing a picture of Santa, which is a shame cause he's my favorite one. Goodness I hope I feel better soon, I don't do well with the whole resting thing :P

Quick post

This past weekend I paid bills, went Christmas shopping, and well relaxed. I managed to buy gifts for most of the people on my list and I hope everyone enjoys there gifts :)
On another note, My Blowfish boots arrived and they are so comfortable! They are officially my favorite pair right now, which is pretty hard considering all of the contenders in my closet, lol.

Here's a quick outfit pic. I wish I could have gotten a better one, I swear it looked so cute in person. Honestly I'm kinda done with my cell phone, not a fan, the camera stinks and it's extremely difficult to text on. I think it's time for something new.
Blazer: Charlotte Russe
Dress: H &M
Tights: Wet seal
Boots: Blowfish

Blowfish review

So as I mentioned in a previous entry I bought the Toshi boots from Blowfish. I got the last pair in my size off of DSW and I figured that it was fate. I have to admit that, as of right now these boots are by far my favorite pair! Not only are they extremely different from any other pair of boots I own, they're also incredibly comfortable. They seem to have a padded layer that conforms to my feet and they're light; which I like in my boots. Let's just say I wear them to work(at a daycare) and I'm on my feet all day, they're that nice. Here are a couple quick pics to show everyone what they look like.

 The only flaw, which I hear is common with all Blowfish shoes. For some reason the upper flap is not sewed onto the rest of the shoe. I don't know why it wasn't sewed together, but you can hardly tell when you wear them accept for the occasional sock peeping out.



Overall i would recommend these shoes, they're comfortable and stylish, what more could you ask for? Also these shoes are true to size, no need to mess around with that :)

Photo dump thursday

Well it's that time again. I've compiled even more lulzy things from my Tumblr. My favorites from the week and here they are!

lol, very cute. Gotta love Harry Potter fandom  irl <3 

                                                                

                                               I hope this is real because this is too funny!

                                                                                   

My friend Sally and I sing this song to each other, it's just so perfect.

Also the code on this entry is frustrating me, so I'm just gunna leave it at this before I throw my laptop gahhhhhhh

Outfit post

For me, the only time I can dress up is literally on the weekends. I work with little kids at a day care and honestly it's just not best to wear your good clothes. It can get pretty messy there, no joke! Anyway, I've been attempting to gather more pairs of colorful tights. The reason for this is because I own mostly black tights and I wanted to liven up my wardrobe. Below are a few pair that I bought over the weekend.

The blue and yellow pair are from Target, while the other pair is from well Forever 21. I actually bought two pairs of the Forever 21 in black and a pinkish color ( which can be seen in the last pic). Not a fan considering I have such pale legs and they just blend. What a shame :( the bows on both pairs are adorable.I defiantly recommend the Target ones, though. Both are extremely comfortable and cheap! My two favorite things.

And here are the pink ones. Yeah not so great. I believe later on I changed into the yellow ones which wound up looking sooo much better.
Dress, tights, belt( from another dress), and cardigan: Forever 21

Busy, busy, busy!

So like the title says I've been pretty busy. It was mostly my fault though. After Thanksgiving I got involved with a few new games; Assassin's creed revelations and Batman: Arkham city to be specific. Batman was AMAZING and although I did become annoyed and the below picture happened, I still enjoyed myself. Assasin's creed was just like the previous two, nothing really new there, but it was the right ending for Ezio. Anywayyyyy to make up for the last, what two weeks? I'll post some quick pictures.

I can't even explain what happened here! The game glitched and my game basically froze and spawned the new joke with my group of friends where we essentially just shout BATMAN!!! at one another, lol we're so mature :P

This beautiful dress I found at Forever 21. I didn't buy it though because I felt like it made me look shorter than I am and the inner lining stopped somewhere around my knees. I don't know why it did that because it just made it look cheap :/

And lastly this really cute air freshener that my mom got me for my new car. Thanks mom <3

Sunday morning just a post

Sundays are my lazy days. Usually I just sit back drink some coffee and check out a few of my favorite blogs. I'll check out some of my favorite sites and then I'm off to just lounge around for he most part. I think everyone deserves days like this. I know I work two jobs and can be gone most days from 7-6. The constant running really wears me out, I work with kids so it's literally running most of the time mind you. Sometimes I don't know why I do it. Most nights I'm so exhausted that I  can't hang out with any of my friends and honestly I can see the point in making more money if I can't spend time with the people I love. Sundays kind of make up for it though. I get to see my family and friends, I get to relax a little, and I get to finish some chores that get sidelined during the week. I'm not saying that one day a week makes working so hard completely worth it, but I will say that it makes my week a little more bearable.

Photo dump thursday

So here we are, it's Thursday once again and time for a photo dump. Basically what it is, is I compile a whole crap load o' pics from over the week and post them here. Unbelievably interesting I know, anyway here we go!

 lol The Walking Dead. I feel like I'd enjoy this show a lot more if it followed the comic. I'm always like that though, I prefer the original.

                                               I always cry at this part too D,:

                                                Seriously, some people just need to stop.

                 This is actually and ole one that I found on my computer recently. It's an old y, but a goody!

Well That's it for now. I guess I'll go play Sims/pets 3, because I still haven't gotten a chance to play it and I bought it literally 3 weeks ago! I guess that just goes to show how busy I am now a days.

Expensive tastes

Let's face it I, like most girls, have expensive tastes. I love clothes, I love bags, but most of all I love shoes. Now I know in the past I've made a few posts about recent purchases in regards to shoes and I continue to add to my large family of shoes with this new purchase:

These beauties will be my first pair of Blowfish and I'm so excited, mostly because my old favorite pair of boots had to be thrown away after the flood. I don't know why,but sometimes I become extremely attached to my possessions. This can cause a problem especially when something I really love gets to old to wear, or just plain ruined because I just become so bummed out! I know I'm a little nuts, though I do hope these shoes become my new favorite pair.

Now on another note I recently saw an amazing bag from one of my favorite designers Betsey Johnson. I already have a couple of things from her and I just adore everything she does.  This bag is just AMAZING! I've been looking for the perfect leather quilted bag and I',m pretty sure this could be it! only problem is the price tag, which is almost $200, that's a months car payment! I'm really going to have to check her outlet and see if they have it cheaper, but if now I may just be forced to lay out the money or look for a similar style someplace else. Gahhh it really sucks to have such expensive tastes

Saturday adventures.

This past Saturday was a like any other. I ran some errands with like going to the bank, the drug store and going to get my new baby washed for the first time. It wasn't that dirty, but it did warrant a cleaning, especially since it's just so new. Here are a few quick pics from the day.

  

Rundown:

Dress: TJ Maxx

Tights: Steve Madden (got them for $4 at DSW!)

Shoes: Steve Madden

Cardigan: A hand me down from a friend

Belt: came with the dress.

                                A closer pic of the pattern. I was trying to show the diamonds in the tights,
                                                 but it didn't show up :( stinking cell phone.

                                                     My sister and in in front of our house. I'm on
                                                       the left and she's on the right.

                                                 My baby in the car wash. Be careful with her!

Well that's it for now! A pretty uneventful day, but I still enjoyed myself. Now I'm off to watch a few episodes of How I Met your mother, Love that show!

The Photo dump

I've decided that it's time to add some features to my blog. This is a way for me to update more often as well as a way for me to share all of the things that I find interesting and just plain old funny. So for now I'll just be calling it The photo dump until I can come up with something a little more fitting.

                                                               This "shellfish" 1%

                                                            These shoes<3 I'm obsessed!

                                          This cool car I found in Lake George NY last summer.

If anyone wants to see any more pics that I find funny, juts check out my Tumblr located here :Tumblr

Halloween in the snow

Here in New York snow is nothing far from the norm. It is, however, completely unbelievable when it snows in October. It just doesn't happen, ever! I've lived here my entire life and have never once experience and October snow storm, that is until this past weekend. It was the most bizarre thing, we all assumed that it would only be a few flurries. It turned out to be a couple of inches, 8 inches from the last time I heard.

I still can't believe it, Halloween in the snow. It's a first and hopefully not an indicator of how the weather is going to be this winter.

Catch up!

It's been an extremely busy couple of weeks. In this time I really haven't been able to get online, but I'm making up for it now with this huge post. Let me start of by saying that the wedding I mentioned a last post was amazing. I hadn't been to a wedding in a couple of years and kinda forgot how much fun they were. The bride and groom looked so happy and I have to say that the venue was just gorgeous. I was a Japanese inspired restaurant and it had the most delicious food. If/ when I ever get married I am definitely going to have to check this place out.

Me and my "date" What I wore:
Dress: TJ Maxx
Shoes: coach
Necklace: gift from a friend


On another note last week My family and I went a a trip to go look for my new car (finally). I've been without a vehicle for a little over a month and let me just say that you never realize how dependent you are on your car until it's gone. Anyway I wound up getting a 2012 Kia Rio and I absolutely adore it!

So pretty! Anyway I'm super excited because it's my first new car. I still miss my old car, you were a soldier good friend. R.I.P. Saturn.

OK well I'm going to go relax now. I seem to have managed to catch a cold from one of my kids at work, thanks guys :p.

Attendin' a wedding

So sometime in October I'm supposed to attend my neighbors wedding. I don't really know what I'm going to wear so I've basically come up with a few dresses that appeal to me.

This first one is from Forever 21. I tried it on the last time I was there and decided not to buy it. In all honesty I kinda regret not getting it and it's been on my mind ever since. I think it would be perfect for a fall wedding especially with the right colored tights and a cardigan.

I was also thinking about this dress, which is currently on sale at
http://axparisusa.com/ I'm not as in love with this one, however I must admit that I really like this print and for the price I find it hard to pass up.

This last dress is actually on that I already bought. I found it at TJ Maxx on sale and I just couldn't pass it up!I love the silhouette and cut out in the front.

What to do, what to do? There are so many adorable choices and so few occasions to wear them to!

Sunday morning down time.

Sometimes I like to day dream about what my future home will look like. I don't image the building, more like the adorable stuff I can put in it. Target carries a lot of items from the Fred and Friends line which is one of my favorite lines because of all the quirky stuff they carry. http://www.worldwidefred.com/home.htm

I'm not looking for a new place any time soon, but it's fun to look at all the amazing possibilities.

Another pair added to the family

So the other day Tara and I went to go visit Sally again at work, I swear we don't normally do this, I just always find something when I go there! Anyway I was looking at the shoes and I came across a pair of Minnetonka moccasin boots! To those who don't know, I love Minnetonka shoes. They're unbelievably comfortable and I honestly own waaay to many pairs, anyway they were around $60ish which is kind of expensive, but in reality in any other store they would have been around $80 something, so go me.

And on another shoe note, last week I found the Steve Madden boots I'd been looking for. They are unbelievably comfortably and I couldn't be happier. I also tried on the Blowfish boots, but they just weren't what I thought they would be, besides I'm all booted out for now. Maybe some other time if there's and incredible deal or something, you never know :)

Tropical storm Irene

These past two weeks have been pretty chaotic. Tropical storm Irene hit New York and my county experienced a large amount of devastation. My area was under so much water, that many of the houses have been condemned. Fortunately my family and friends are safe. I have a home and, although, I lost my car I'm glad to have all of the things I do because I know that there are people that are worse off than me and I am truly fortunate.

                                             A small gift shop that experienced quite a bit of damage.

                                        A small strip mall down the street from my house.

                                              My sister and I trying to trudge our way back home.

                                                                     My poor car :(

All in all it's been a crazy  few weeks. Hopefully things will start going back to normal and I'll be able to get back to the usual.
