I really love the idea of blouses like this, but I have no idea what they would look like on me. No experience whatsoever. This is another reason I want to have a girls day with my Mom & Elaine. I don't feel guilty looking at clothes with them like I do with Shaun. Poor Shaun, he endures a lot for me when I'm feeling girly. I love him so very much.
At least I have absolutely NO desire to buy shoes. You have to be thankful for the small things.
I'm a bit behind posting my photo daily here, but I have diligently taken two photos every day this year. I don't always do Clothe Daily, but I take one photo of myself and one of something else everyday.
Clothes Daily for the 2nd to last photo below:
- grey shirt from Gordmans
- purple shirt with dragon from ALLOY
- grey trousers from Alloy
- ballet flats from Target.
Seriously, kids, I'm going to try and keep up with this, especially in the new year. Call it something of a resolution I made, partially for a Livejournal community. I need to be kept busy, anyway.
- brown long sleeved shirt (gift from the fashionista niecelings) Old Navy.
- tan tank top (gift from parents) ALLOY
- black trousers (gift from parents) ALLOY
- brown boots (left behind by sister because they hurt her feet, or something, I find them intensely comfy for heels. They make me 6 feet tall! Hott!) Candies.
Here I am posing up a storm. I was being very America's Next Top Model but I kept laughing so hardly any of the pictures were any good. Shaun likes the ones where I am laughing, of course.
Here is a sampling of our Christmas haul. Essentially, these are the combined books, movie and video games that we received this year.
My parents, who went way overboard due to having extra money this year, got me a Dell Notebook (which I'm currently posting from), it's a Latitude D620, if that means anything to you. I'm supposed to use it for writerly pursuits, so far I have surfed the internet, played with Paint Shop Pro and downloaded music. I have MS Office, but I have only opened it to stare at the blank page and feel overwhelmed by its, um, blank pagedness. Alas.
My parents also gave us their old dining room table. It belonged to my great grandparents and is probably from the 1940s, though it could be older. I remember sitting under it when I was a kid and looking at all of the legs of the adults and twanging a spring that is under it that has something to do with the leaves of it. It has two, they don't insert in the middle, but pull out at the ends. We have one out right now and have set Arkham Horror and the Dunwich Horror expansion up. We needed a big table for board gamery, so we're super happy.
This is the type of post I would like to make daily here, but I seem to be so... disorganized, most of the time. We'll see how it goes, I guess.
Here are some more of my Christmas Eve & Christmas photos. If you're curious, there are lots of them in my photos here & on my flickr:
We signed up for Netflix yesterday and should be getting the Disney Hercules and Disc 1 Vol 1 of Dark Shadows tomorrow. Netflix is amazing. I have a queue that is full of TV series and Shaun has one full of Movies. I think this is an efficient system.
- head kerchief (75c at garage sale)
- dress (thrifted)
- burgandy skirt (clearance kids department at wal*mart)
- blue skirt (family dollar)
- knee high socks (target)
- shoes (ross)
- arm warmers (hot topic when I was 16.)
- sweater hoodie (thrifted)
- red gloves with frowning stars and a cow on them (dollar tree)
This is a little humorous homage to the layering trend.
Show us what's cookin'.
