Happy late valentine's day!

I wore this on valentine's day, to enjoy dinner at home with my super cute husband. I think it's my favorite new outfit, and nothing on it is new except the tights.





Outfit details:
Dress: fatshionista lj swap
Belt: Target
Cardigan: Old Navy, with the buttons replaced by moi
Patterned fishnets: Torrid
Shoes: Pikolinos

I love these chocolate brown patterned tights I got at Torrid recently!


Should I eat this one?


Or this one?


Nah, I'll eat them both!


Looks like someone else is interested in the chocolates too...


I hope you are all enjoying the change in season. I am so ready for springtime - rain rain, go away! Outdoor outfit photos will soon be a reality.

What's your favorite thing about springtime?

I've been away, but I still love you all!

Hello my lovelies,

I was out on vacation for the past week, and slowly catching up on all your wonderful blogs. In my journey of catching up, I came across the lovely Beej, who did an outfit inspiration post based on one of my outfits! Go check her out, she is amazing and lovely and fierce.

As always, thank you all for reading my blog and being generally awesome!

Animated gif playtime, brought to you by me and a hasty internet search for an animated gif tool

Ever try to get the right picture and end up with a ton of sequential pics in which you barely move but make funny hand gestures?

Me either. I am too, umm, cool for that. All of my pictures are super styled and awesome on the first take.

Yeah.

:)

Some things I've been liking lately

1) This bread box at Target:



2) The new coat I scored at 50% off at Macy's (see above picture - don't you love the gold enamel buttons!?!)

3) the "build your own sampler" at Taphouse:



4) Gifflar treats from IKEA:


(it said there were 11 rolls inside, but there were 14! THAT'S THREE EXTRA ROLLS!)

5) This shade of nail polish (the polish itself was kind of crappy, it went on horribly and took 3 coats):



6) Monkey's new hair color!

7) My commenters! You guys rock, srsly.

The wonders of IKEA

I think I need an IKEA tag or something, we go there not super often but I always end up blogging about it when we do. This was from a few weeks ago.

I also need an adorable husband tag:



So strong!



We got lost on the way back, as we often do, since it's buried in an industrial/office park and we always think we know a better way back to the interstate.



Any other IKEA lovers out there? Or people that like to disturb store displays like we do? :)
