Oh hey look it's the boots again. I know you're all shocked (read - sick of them). I will say, I have bought some new shoes recently so there is an end in sight I promise.

I wore this outfit to work the other day and then decided it would be great for some of our engagement photos too. In other words I don't have any time in life to do important things like pick out pretty outfits anymore so I had to go with a repeat outfit. But I like the way it turned out so it all worked out. I don't have them yet but I will give you a little preview...



Oh yes...that happened. Don't worry we took normal one's too. We're not that weird...

And She's Wearing the Boots Again...

I will leave you with this lovely outtake...

This is what happens when a Joey follows you around with a camera. I am not responsible for these faces...

I know what your thinking - "Does she wear anything besides those boots?" And the answer is no. Well that's not completely true, but just about. I mean can you blame me. They're cute, comfortable, and keep me warm in this chilly Texas weather we've been having. So I apologize. I will try and make an effort to mix things up a little. But I'm not making any promises here people.

Mustard Yellow

Sweater/Bloom, Plaid shirt/TJMax, Jeans/AE, Boots/DSW,

Why do they call it mustard yellow? It sounds so icky...But it's really very pretty. I've been looking for a sweater in this color for a while and ended up getting one at Kendi's shop Bloom last week. I'm deeply in love already. I know that sounds like an exaggeration. But it's not. That's all you need to know. You should probably get in your car right now and go get yourself one. It comes in a lovely blue as well. It's cozy and warm and a beautiful color. Exactly what I wanted.

P.S. Please excuse the sleepy look and disheveled hair. This was after a late night of work. Also, there may be a lot of these sort of pictures for a while because I'm not much of a morning person, so I apologize in advance.

Allow me to introduce you to the first pictures on this here little blog not taken by me. Thank you Joey! It's probably the reason I have a normal smile. Still haven't adjusted to smiling for the timer on my camera. The day will come I'm sure...

Pink and Cheetah

Sweater and Blouse/Banana Republic, Jeans/Gap, Nails/Ulta Ruby Slipper

I'm obsessed with my new cheetah print blouse from Banana. I love accessorizing outfits with cheetah print pieces but oddly this may be my first piece of clothing...and I'm pretty excited about it.

P.S. These pictures also make me think I should probably get my hair done soon. Sorry 'bout those roots!

Product Review: Something Shiny

As you will find out about me, I have a thing for anything shiny, sparkly, and shimmery. It's as if I am drawn toward these things by an unknown force. So when I saw Kailey's post about butter LONDON's new holiday color KNEES UP I knew I wanted to try it out. Also note, anything that reminds me that the holidays are just around the corner is okay in my book! Well, while browsing Ulta the other day I came across their new holiday colors and found this:

It's very similar to the butter LONDON color but for half the price. This was my first time trying out the Ulta Nail Lacquer and I was pleasantly surprised. The polish went of very smooth and dried fairly quickly. The color was a vibrant ruby red with a little shimmer to it. Will definitely be trying out more of their colors from now on. I think it's just as good if not better than some of the other high end polishes out there that are much pricier. Go try it out. And let me know what you think!

I'm more happy than you know that Texas winter weather has finally shown it's face around here. I love breaking out the boots for the first time. Get used to seeing them. They will not be leaving my feet for the next few months.

Feeling Very J.Crew

Sometimes you just need a little color in your life.  Plus they make me feel very JCrew. Which is never a bad thing.

What I Would Wear to Work if I Had a Job

Emma wanted in on the photo shoot

Blazer/Thrifted, Skirt/JCrew, Shirt/Gap, Booties/Ross

One of my newest obsessions is thrifting for clothes and house items. Been looking for a navy blazer for awhile now and was excited to find this one for $2!! Would probably add more accessories if I was actually going somewhere ;)

P.S. please forgive the cropped head in the pics. This is the best I can do with a digital camera on a timer.
