I need direction in my life

I need direction. I need someone to sit me down say you will do this, go here, wear that. It gives me structure. I'm like a toddler, I need order.

With that being said, let me introduce you to the first world problem chaos of the past week. I am in a wedding and we are to wear black dresses. That was all the direction I was given. This is where panic set in....

Which dress do I choose?! I love them all and can't decide. Eek!


How goregous is this?!?!?

Another one I am smitten with?



I haven't a clue what a gimlet is, but I LOVE it!

Which one would you choose? And where is a good place to find a black dress?

Tickle me Tuesday: Boots



Now that it's fall, I can get away with wearing boots. SCORE!

I must must must have these! Oh, and if anyone wants to forward this post to the hubs, I do have a birthday coming up in a month and half. :)



What can I say except that I love love love these. They are a MUST!


I have been wanting these for ages. Now with the weather change, they need to live with me. I like pink, if anyone is interested in sending them to me. M'kay?!


Umm, these are my size and $30!! YES! I love the detailing! Swoon.

What's been tickling your Tuesday?

Blog Yard Sale

I am attempting to clean out my closest. I am going to go through and pull things that don't fit, that I haven't worn, or that I have to realize, I can't wear anymore. Sigh.

Some of the items are brand new so I thought, if any of you all want them, they are yours!

I'll sell them to you for $5 plus $3 shipping. Just email me what you want!

Delias, size small

Loft, size 4P. Clearly I've never worn it. :(

Express, Size Small. Also available in White.


Navy suit from Old Navy. Size 4 skirt, Small Jacket. Yea, my fat ass can't fit this. It's wrinkley because I washed it. I thought I could wear it for my interview yesterday. Yup, not so much......

Shoot me and email or comment if you want anything. And if not, I won't be offended. Just thought someone may like them!

How much is too much?


So, I like to consider myself "thrify" instead of cheap :) I tend to try to make a lot of things, rather then buy them. However, I am madly, truly, deeply in love with this, from Etsy. I MUST have this. MUST MUST MUST! However, it's $180! My thrify little self is saying NO! But my "this is my wedding damn it" self is saying "MINE!"I have read blog after blog after blog about how to save money. I think I have done a fairly good job. I am making a lot of things. I made our save the dates, I am making my veil, gosh darn it I'll even bake my cupcakes if I have to! BUT I WANT THIS! I just am trying to reason wtih myself that it's ok to spend that money. How much is too much?
