hello anthropologie

this morning i stumble across the anthropolgie site and clicked on the sale link and look at all the pretty items i found:

first the ruffles - i love how girly this is.
a ruffled neck cardigan is classic to me.
black and white is always in style.
this plaid pencil skirt is perfect for fall.
this white blouse is practical as well as fun.
okay. i adore these. thy are so cute!
i love this blue cardigan.
pleated shirt please.
blue bow slingbacks. i love it.
again frills add such a feminine touch.

hope you enjoy. you can find all of these and more at anthropologie's site in the sale section.

welcome here monday.

so a while ago i applied to be a substitute teacher and last week found out that all of my background check information is done and they could start calling today.

so what did i do? i got kinda nervous. silly i know, but i did. i woke up at 6 am (they told me they could call from 6:15-6:45 am normally) and did my hair and makeup. i showered last night and contemplated what to wear.

however, as luck would have it. here i am. makeup and hair done, sitting on my couch in my p.j.'s at 7:30 am. i don't think the call is going to come today. but no worries, maybe tomorrow.

i am kind of excited, think of how much i can get done in a day when i have the whole day.

so yes. welcome here monday. i'm glad you've arrived.

my parents are the cutest

this is my mom and dad. i love them so very much. tonight they're out on a date. and i just think that's the cutest. :)

wardrobe remix day 3

so i wear a lot of scarfs...because this is yesterday, the last 2 days i wore scarfs and today i found myself wearing another one.

this polka dot scarf is thrifted. it's one of my favorites.

oh and guess what? today i went to this grand garage sale and got the cutest polka dot coat for...a dollar. yes a single dollar can still get you something...you just have to find it among a lot of junk.

i'll post a picture of my pretty new coat later, in the mean time if you haven't check out old navy's 1492 sale...you should. they have skirts, sweaters, jeans, dresses, blazers, all for $14.92...this weekend only - so check it out.

it's almost that time...

for my locks of love haircut.

i tried doing one of those post your picture look at a haircut on your picture online, but nothing looked quite right. none of the haircuts looked even close to alright. so i got scared that maybe, possibly, this was always the case and my head doesn't take any type of hair.

i'm crossing my fingers this isn't the case.

i'm trying to decide exactly what i want to do...as of now i'm thinking this is what i will choose:


i wanna know what you all think...good haircut for fall?

wardrobe remix day 2

so here's my day 2 of wardrobe remix. not gonna lie, part of me just wanted to stay in my pajamas today. yep, i do believe that this could really be a challenge for me. a good challenge but a definite challenge.

so far, these outfits really remind me how much i love thrift store shopping. my shoes, my polka dot top, and 1 of my red necklaces are all from thrift stores.

i love thrifting. recycling. reusing. reducing. all while supporting good causes and saving a lot of money. yes. thrift store shopping and i go hand in hand. :)

wardrobe remix day 1

in an effort to wear more of the clothes that fill my closet i decided to join the wardrobe remix group on flickr.com. my plan is to document what i wear each day so that hopefully i won't continue to wear the same thing each day. so here's day 1 - yesterday.

lots of my clothes are thrifted and i get really excited about the treasures i find at goodwill. here's a perfect example. these jeans are ann taylor's - they looked like they were never worn - and they costed me less than $5. and i love them. and i've worn them an embarassingly large amount of the time since i bought them. so sorry thrifted ann taylor's you will soon see a break when i start wearing the clothing i've seemingly forgetten about.

so here we go. i'm hoping this whole experience will help me to dress better. we'll see. ;)
