 Picking these bad boys up today. I'm over the 7 for all Man-Kind, too much stiching on the pockets. comes off as offensive and showy. These are much more up to date, flattering, and very under the radar! Perfect.

I'd like to start a new theme on here, hopefully a daily occurance. Adam and I say things to eachother that would make me vomit if: a. I wasn't one of the two people in the realtionship b.If it was any other people besides adam I've recently started calling him "bug" and he has started calling me "cakes" as in: "I love you bug." "I love you too, cakes." OUCH. It sounds so much worse in dictation. Love will make you do crazy things.

Just some VERY similar Michael Kors shoes like this over my lunch breakYou can snag these for $165 at nordstrom.com -- mine were $70 on sale. Mike have 3 straps in the front, a much more solid wooden heel, and larger platform in front. Think a hippe-esque pair of YSL's. Hobo stripper if you will. This picture doesn't do the ones I got jusitce---just a mere outline of the color! obbbssssessseeed!

Everything here is under $25. Quick spring wardrobe fixes. Keep it simple and clean!

I found this little gem on Allure Magazine's website. I am a HUGE fan of sunless tanning: your skiny doesn't dry out, its quick, cheap, and instant. I'm also impatient and hate waiting around, PLUS no side effects like wrinkles and sun spots. Read Hatton's tips on how to get that sunless glow with little mishap! CHEERS! Insiders' Guide How to Get the Best Spray Tan An Interview With Susie Hatton Hatton is the founder and owner of Chocolate Sun Studio in Los Angeles. By Danielle Pergament My advice on getting a spray tan is always to err on the light side. More self-tanner doesn't just mean a deeper tan—it's also more likely to streak. · Prepare yourself. The morning of your appointment, use a nonoily scrub to exfoliate your skin, particularly the knees and elbows (which tend to absorb more tanner and turn dark), as well as the neck, chest, shins, and face (where the skin is thinner and streaks show up). Coat any scabs or recent scars with Vasel

When does Facebook stalking become unacceptable? When you see some girl writes on your boyfriend’s wall and you throw a fit, even though he is with you, and loves you, and thinks you are the most beautiful girl in the world. It’s enough to drive a half-sane girl crazy. Twitter is another story, it’s up to date and down to the minute snapshots into someone else’s life. It gives you the option to stalk: who are they with, what are they do, why wasn’t I invited? It becomes obsessive, a culture of being sub-par in real life, and ordinary on the web. Someone “de-friends” you on Facebook and it stings, or unfollows you on Twitter because you didn’t interest them enough or you annoyed them. If you friend someone and they delcline, you ask yourself why? Was I not pretty enough, skinny enough, rich enough? It’s a superficial world – one that I admitted ably have been sucked into head first. I check my friends to see if what they are doing is better than what I am, I check in on my boyf

I've come to love and adore Macy's. Not just because we don't have a Nordstrom, Saks, Barney's or Bloomies, but because the one I frequent in Milwaukee used to be a Marshall Fields(better known for having HIGH quality over store quantity). It has a mix of middle/up-scale-ish (Hudson, Rachel by Rachel Roy, French Connection, Kensie, BCBG,Free People, Rick and Skinny, Young Broke and Fabulous...)you get it...young desiners for my gengeration that are both affordable, on trend, and of good quality. Then they also have your marmish gear, trashy gear, and a decent shoe department. Purses - not do much - I can't stand Coach of Dooney & Burke and barg on Kate Spade. I do love their jean selection though. I've accumulated enough jeans that cost over $200 to last a lifetime, but has neglected to spluge on any recently. I've been super into skinny jeans for the last few seasons, but as I posted about before, I need the Seven for All Man-Kind Ginger bellbottoms,

(InStyle.com) -- Star stylist Nicole Chavez, who collaborates with celebrities like Rachel Bilson, Kristen Bell and Scarlett Johansson, tells you the key pieces every woman should have in her closet. Black blazer "A tailored blazer is classic, feminine and looks great on all body types. Pair it with anything: jeans, little dresses, trousers, skirts. Make sure to find one that fits you well and accentuates your waist--you don't want it to look like it's swallowing you!" Leopard print scarf "Even if you're wearing a basic T-shirt and jeans, use accessories like a printed scarf as the 'bright' piece to complete your look." Red Flats "Black is the obvious choice, but red flats provide a pop of color and work for every season. I love to pair them with a striped shirt and a trench coat." Striped Shirt "This timeless classic is having a comeback. It looks great paired with brights or prints or peeking out from underneat

...and it's that days that leave you with a frowned in face that make you want to smile again. We smile, we laugh (real or fake),get annoyed, angry, and we get on with it. "Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny." - Deep Thoughts , Jack Handey because its that good:  http://www.deepthoughtsbyjackhandey.com/index.html

I met Kirbie out in LA through my BFF from Arizona State, Michelle. Kirbie has an amazing website: www.kirbiegoestohollywood.com. She posts about her life, job, hopes, dreams, and is an amazing storyteller (you might have even seen her on CSI: Miami or Melrose Place). Well this weekend Kirbie threw her BFF a bridal shower/bachelorette party and made these cookies---HERSELF! They are sassy that is for sure, I love them! Booty booty booty booty rockin' everywhere. 

Yesterday le lovely boyfriend and I got to hang out with my co-workers in a private suite at the Brewer's game. It was the Brew Crew vs. the Pirates, a team we beat 20-0 the week before, making U.S. history as the biggest shut out since 1901--or something ridiculous.  Co-workers have children, children love Adam. I came back form the rest room to find this little baby sitting on all 243 pounds of Mr. Grimm. She climbed up there herself and was staring at him with googly eyes, probably how I looked at him in that dingy bar the first night we met (haha).  Hey babe, you're putting in daddy practice a little early. So precious. 

I’ve written lists before about why “I’m the life of the party”. For the time being I’d like to think that those days of all- nighters and cheap wine have gone, and died a beautiful death. I’m still fun, don’t get me wrong, but there are more important things in life then bar crawls and staying up until 4 a.m.I am perplexed by how I was once able to do that…oh to be 21 again (yes, it was only two years ago). I strive to find a job that I love as much as it loves me. I've been out of college since August with almost a year of working under my belt, but I simply: Just want more. More: responsibility, challenge, stress, creativity, say, work... So, pull up a chair and read the reasons why YOU should hire ME. I’ll state the obvious: I AM: 1. Hardworking 2. Determined 3. Well spoken 4. Well dressed (it’s true) 5. Intelligent 6. Capable 7. Empathetic 8. Driven 9. In LOVE with social Media 10. A Natural born problem solver. 11. Hyper-organized 12. Ambitious While

She is: a style icon. beautiful. and again...ICONIC. I'm just not sure I love any of these photos. The bright red dress is a vision though. She is just coming across as old and overdone. Holy airburshing on the cover, she does look quite radiant. This feels wrong writing this... Verdict: She wins just because she is SJP/Carrie. PC: Vouge. com

Thank you MARNI. Bracelet. of. my. DREAMS.
