Yah, I Guess I Like Red


It's so interesting, I guess I never really realized how often I wear red! It always seems like such a good color to plan things around. Although I think I planned this outfit around my boots. Too bad I have never treated these boots with suede protection! I always tromp through the snow in my nice boots. Boo. They aren't that worn though, so I guess I didn't mess up too bad! 

Red coat: Orsay
Beige blazer: Maurices
Blue and black spotted blouse: Maurices
Jeans: Levi
Brown heeled boots: Jessica Simpson
 
Whooo it's the weekend!!

Well for me it is.   :0 )  My work schedule allows me to work 9 hours a day so that I am able to take every other Friday off! It was a bummer though... I worked two Fridays ago in order to take off last Friday to see WICKED (one of the best Broadway shows EVER) and then my work closed down in order to conserve gas to help with the rolling natural gas outages that were happening across New Mexico. That's right, New Mexico experienced such a cold snap that the gas company couldn't meet demand and thousands of New Mexicans were left without gas. And some still are! So insane huh? Well anyway, I ended up having to work an extra day when I would have gotten that day off! But how could I have known that. And also, my work was just trying to help in the face of a disaster! So how could I be upset?   :0 /   Hahaha. 

Anyway, today I am pretty much just going to relax, run some errands, and watch Glee! Yay all around.

Red Teahouse


BRRRRR. If anyone is reading, you will know how committed I am this week because I went out in subzero temperatures in order to take pics!! Hehehe. Yay snow!! But seriously, brrr.   :0 )

 This is the necklace I mentioned in an earlier post that Kate made me for my birthday! I call it Red Teahouse. I don't know, that's just what it makes me think of! I LOVE it!!!   :0 )
I am trying to get her to start a blog herself so she might be able to sell her pieces but I don't think she is feelin' it! Maybe I will start one for her... 

 
 These shoes are almost on their last leg... but I LOVEEEE them!! I won't stop wearing them until they completely disintegrate. 

 
 Hahaha I put this one up cause my face is hilarious.

Blazer: Vanity
White tee: H&M
Jeans: H&M
Silver hoop earrings: JC Penny
Red mary janes: Orsay

It was snowing on me!!! I love the snow, but without a jacket it was not pleasant! But I love the flurries and how it dusts your eyelashes and each time you blink you can feel the ice. I have GOT to go skiing soon! We are finally getting some snow here and I must take advantage since I only went TWICE last year during one of the best seasons ever!!! Man. Faiiiilureee!! Well I will make it up to myself this time!

What is up with any readers I may have out there? Any news you want to share??? Come on!! Let's discuss things!!

I am watching an episode of Sex and the City... just fyi. The one with Berger when he is first introduced and before he gets all annoying and needy and self-conscious. Yeach. So there! I shared! Now it's your turn!!

Sweet, Sweet Sanford

TA-DA!!!!!!

 They have ARRIVED!!! And I must say... they are some of the most BEAUTIFUL boots I have ever seen!! I am so sosososo glad they worked out! Oooo and I am super stoked about the deal I got. Yes! Brown Boots, I have FINALLY found you! These are perfect for me because I can lace them up to fit the width of my calves. I didn't think I had big calves, but I went through many a boot before I found this baby. How do you little chickie's have such teeny calves? People don't carry you around, do they?  :0 )  Oh SANFORD! How I adore you! Ok, a little obsessed... sorry.

 This is my pup Baxter wee Bax! Well, just Baxter. But I call him everything from Bub to Beetle. Ohhhh he is just so cute! And also very cuddly... as illustrated here.

Beige blazer: Maurices
Blue blouse: Maurices
Brown boots: Sam Edelman
Alliteration: B is the best letter  :0 )
Jeggings: Maurices
Earrings: World Market
Ring: Purchased in Nice, France!
So when I was putting this outfit together, I grabbed this blue blouse because blue and brown are one of my favorite combos ever (yah, not that original, I know...) but I didn't remember that the sleeves were a bit poofy and long! So they stuck out from under my blazer. I was worried at first and thought "dangit, why didn't I grab a different blue shirt?" but I am kinda liking that look! What do you think??

On another note... over the course of this weekend a pipe burst in mine and Kate's apartment (in her bedroom... yeesh) and flooded her entire room in about three inches of water in 30 seconds! Ahhhhh. So yah that sucked. Then, when I went to my boyfriend's house this weekend, pipes connecting to the washer and dryer had burst as well and had flooded the entire laundry room... and when the laundry room had just about as much water as it could handle, it started draining into his basement. When he went down there with his irrigation boots he said he thought there was about two FEET of water! His stuff was floating everywhere.

Ugh. Dang cold temperatures!! New Mexico is not cut out for this! Hey weather, I would like it to get warmer now please... thanks.

Whooo!! Two days of posts in a row! Woot.
