You Pick It, I Stick It

I love this Tucker dress. I was soooo happy when I found out it was being re-released by Target! A lot of other blog ladies bought and have worn this dress as well. I love it. Is it okay to wear it every day?

Walgreen's had all Revlon make-up buy one get one 50% off. I had wanted to try their lip stain for a while. I bought Just Bitten in Crave (Ulta is running the same special and you can purchase it online through their sight.)
I'm not sure how I feel about this lip stain. I need to figure out how to apply it with an even consistency. It is a bit spotty. I applied some MAC lipglass on top and the problem was solved.
I also purchased Revlon Moon Drops in Orange Flip. Not all retailers that carry Revlon sell the Moon Drops lip stick. I couldn't find it at Wal-Mart last night and it isn't available on the Ulta website either. I'll post a review of that product after I have tested it out.


I got new ink this week! I love it! It also hurt a whole lot. I have two other tattoos and this was hands down the worst. If you have any tattoos, how many do you have and which one hurt the most?

The title of this blog is a line from the movie Son In Law. Flea is the tattoo artist in the movie and that is his line in the movie.

All Knotted Up

Living in the same area as most of my family is great but sometimes I really wished I lived in an younger, hipper area. More activities to participate in would be amazing. Usual Saturday activities should not include shopping!

This is how my necklaces are now displayed/stored. The hooks are adorable. I bought them at Urban Outfitters last year. I should have picked up a few more. Now it is unacceptable because it is a big tangled mess waiting to happen. At Target today I found a four pack of pretty drawer knobs on clearance for $4. The knobs were originally $18. Yay for clearance! Tomorrow I plan to go to Lowe's and get a piece of wood. Using the knobs and wood I will make additional jewelry storage. A friend of mine did something similar and posted the pictures on facebook. I'll post pictures once I get the project finished.

Leggings Are Pants Too!

I'm still experimenting with flash and no flash pics. The top pic I used the flash and the bottom I didn't use a flash. I need Photoshop and I need a Photoshop course.

I wore leggings as pants for the very first time today. I was a little self-conscious out in public. I don't think I received too many strange looks though. So I declare them a success!

I ordered two of the dress I wanted from the Go International Dress collection. I ordered both of the Tucker dresses I liked. I felt these dresses were the most casual and the most me. Has any one else picked up dresses from the collection?

And the Oscar goes to........

I am a little under the weather so no outfit post for me today but I thought I would share with you the pieces of Target's upcoming re-release of Go International dresses that I want to snatch up this time around!










This is my first time participating in the FBFF Questions of the Week! I am very excited!

This week is the Blogger Awards!!

Here are the categories & my nominations!

1. Creative Juices: Work Your Closet Jamie is awesome at recreating a look she loves using the pieces of clothing she already has in her wardrobe. I typically covet designer outfits I see in magazines and think "I could never afford that awesome outfit. Poor me!". But seeing Jamie recreate a look, it gives me inspiration to do the same thing!

2. The Real Deal: Miss Vinyl Ahoy I love Suze's blog. She is very real. I like that she isn't afraid to speak what's on her mind and bring items of interest to the forefront (like the ModCloth/Forever 21 phenomenon.)

3. Spark Notes: Money Smart Fashion I really enjoy reading Grace's blog. She posts a lot of helpful financial and budgeting information, which I love. I am an accountant but I am not the best at creating a personal budget. She has helped me see it is possible to pay down debt quickly.

4. Newbie: In Kinsey's Closet I found Kinsey's blog through the fall 30 for 30 challenge and I have been following her posts ever since. I love this lady's style. She mixes colors so well and her outfits are chic and work appropriate.

5. Can You Hear Me Now: The Auspicious Life To me, Linda just seems like the typical All-American gal. She is very involved in the blogging community plus she helped develop Everybody, Everywear. Which, in my opinion is a genius idea.

6. If I Had A Hammer: A Pretty Penny Keira posts amazing DIY's. Her latest idea: she used a feather duster to give a completely new look to an old purse! Fabulous! I never in a billion years would have came up with that idea.

7. Tribe Leader: Kendie Everyday Kendie's blog is the first style blog I started reading. Her blog is the reason for my new obsession. There is no doubt about it, she really can rally the troops. Plus her outfits are amazing and she is ridiculously funny.

8. Practically Perfect: The Daybook This was another no-brainer. Sydney always looks amazingly flawless. I love everything that girl wears. I am sure if she wore a potato sac I would go buy a potato sac dress the next day. Do you blame me?

9. Paint By Numbers: Temptalia I don't follow many beauty bloggers but I could spend hours watching tutorials and reading reviews on this blog.

10. Renaissance Woman: Jen Loves Kev Jen is awesome. Not only does she have amazing clothes, she also posts yummy recipes and adorable updates of her daughter, Rowan.

I get sooo much awesome inspiration from all of these ladies I nominated. There are sooo many awesome bloggers out there and these are only a few!
