How Do You Like Them Apples?

Hat – Zellers

Necklace – bought somewhere in Europe.

First, I’d like to thank each and every one of you for your words of congratulations, support, and encouragement on my “500 Celebration Giveaway” post.  I’ve responded personally to everyone I can with words of thanks and appreciation, and will continue to do so.  But I just wanted to give you all a public shout out – you are all so wonderful!  I’m honored that you visit here.

Now onto the things I’m thinking: What if we armed whales?  How cool would that be?  

Imagine:  
A slow moving, gentle unsuspecting whale is swimming along in the ocean.  Perhaps it’s a mother with her baby beside her.  An evil, gray, and ominous poaching whaling boat spies them.  It hones in on them, slowly circling and getting ever nearer.  The greed, and delicious dollar signs looming in their eyes.  It’s draws nearer, almost close enough.  And just as the boat levels it’s large harpoon onto the back of the gentle whale.  The whale pops up with a monstrous shotgun and says, “How do you them apples?”
Am I the only one that thinks this would be awesome? 

*crickets*

Welcome to the inner workings of my mind.

p.s. Another Coffee Talk vlog coming at you tomorrow!

Rebel Head-to-Toe

Cardi – Banana Republic
Top – Gap
Skirt & Necklace – Ruche
Tights – gift from my Babcia
Boots – Feet First

I have a few pet peeves.  One being the inappropriate use of the colon and the semi-colon.  They’re not just one half of an emoticon people! But I also have this personal clothing pet peeve.  I won’t wear one label, or store, head to toe.  I can’t do it.  Something inside me rebels at the very notion. Even if the items are from different labels, but are from the same store, I can’t wear them together in one outfit.   Maybe it’s a silly notion of non-conformity and by wearing one store/label head to toe I’m somehow relinquishing my creativity.  I really don’t know why that is, but it is.  Do you have any weird quirks like that?

Like Kate Moss Has Plus Size Ad Campaigns

Tie – Sears
Vest – AE
Top – Smart Set
Jeans – Gap
Shoes – Payless

I’ve been doing the sock bun for a long time now, and it used to be that you were embarrassed to admit that you had footwear in your hair.  It was like showing your knickers or your slip – a lady never does that.  Now it’s become a source of blogging pride to show exact details of this, frankly, lazy ass hairdo.  It’s actually really amusing to me. *p.s. if you want a tutorial just google it, there are literally dozens of them and I’m not adding to that pile*  What’s next?  Do I show you how I use a hair elastic to keep my pants up? 

Digressing just a touch…can we just take a moment to appreciate how the right pants, combined with the right pose make it look like I have a smokin’ hot J.Lo booty in that first shot?  Usually, I’ve got curves like Kate Moss has plus size ad campaigns, but in this shot I’ve got the booty goin’ on!

I wonder if I can get a life size cardboard cutout of this picture and wear it everywhere like those guys at the side of the road advertizing car washes.  It’s like, “No, this here in the picture with the J.Lo butt is the real me.”

True Story:
Speaking of things you don’t admit too…
Baby put on my bra and rubbed my perfume on herself and pranced around my bedroom.  
How does a 22 month old prance?  
Very awkwardly and unsteadily, but prance she did.

Some Kind Of Wonderful

Blazer – UO
Top – Ruche
Pants – Jacob
Shoes – Payless

There’s nothing I haven’t told Andrew about.  No deed, no word, no act.  Whether good or bad, he knows it all.  Whether he wants to or not. And still he’s married to me.  That’s some kind of wonderful. 
 
Ok, that’s a lie.  
I didn’t tell him about the $9 shirt I bought on sale at H&M last week.
