Polka Dot Tuesday

 

Yesterday, I wore my multicolor polka dot cami with blazer and jeans.  I love pairing blazers with jeans.  It takes me back to my high school days when this was my staple uniform.

The shoes I wore is so old, I don’t even remember when I got it.  I think maybe around the 90s when square toe was in style.  While I do not see much square toe shoes, I can’t seem to part with these shoes.  These are no way pricey shoes-just look at the pleather material that is starting to peel off at the top (every time I put these on, pieces of the shoes would fall on the floor).  However, these shoes do hold a special place in my heart.

Business attire Monday

Some say that only 20% of the clothes in your closet gets worn in everyday life but I beg to differ.  I vowed to incorporate outfits that will include the 80% that are seldom worn.   
The reason: it’s either this or empty my closet and I’m left with only 20% of my clothes!(hang on a moment while I get a paper bag to breathe in)
Wish me luck :)

Today I wore my teal sweater tank with a white button down and stripped brown pants.  Shoes were a repeat, my Nicole “Stinson” boots seen here.
I’ve had this sweater tank for-like-ever and could never figured out how to wear it since the cut is so low that I felt that I am flashing people!  So today, I’ve decided to wear it as a vest.  I kinda like it.  Not only does it add some color to a plain white button down but it also brings the feel of summer during a cold winter day. 
Mission accomplished!

A big shout-out to my sister tonight.  She will be strutting her stuff for the Bloggers Soiree in NY.  Love ya sis!
Currently:  Watching Baby Boy play Wii Sports Resort before bed so I could watch “How I Met Your Mother”.

Rainy Sunday

The rain last night lasted till the morning.  Of course I wore my galoshes!  Paired with jeans and a wool blazer for church.
Okay, so I didn’t get to post my rain boots during my PeeWee Herman rant so upon further adieu… here are my Sperry Rain Boots along with Hubs’ Timbs and Baby Boy’s Snow Boots.

Rainy Saturday night

 

Hub’s Best Man at our wedding invited us to a house get-together.  We were fortunate enough to get a sitter that night.  Unfortunately, The Weather Channel had predicted rain in the forecast starting at midnight.  I wore my ‘97 Nike Air Max paired with bootcut jeans and a grey boyfriend cardigan.

I got these kicks at the Nike Factory Store in Jackson Outlets.

 

Currently: watching Dumb And Dumber in tbsHD.  Brings back memories (circa 1996) when one of our friends got Cable and we would watch it constantly.

Coach has never felt so good

 

Christmas is the time for giving but (and I know I’m going to sound selfish after the statement I am about to say) the sales they are having at stores are ridiculous!

Okay, so this is not really a shoe entry but you can’t leave some handbags that needs to take notice….

I stopped at the Coach Factory Outlet by Six Flags and let me tell you, the line was insane!  I’m not even going to tell you how cold it is outside.  Luckily, I decided that Coach will be the last stop.  So once I got to the door, no lines!  Yeah pretty lucky or was it just my ploy to get something for myself as a reward?  And what a sweet reward I’ve acquired!

I love this bag!  I’m in love with crossbody bags and this one totally fit the bill.  It’s simple that it’s a classic!  Sadly since this was an outlet store purchase, the bags do not come with their garment bags.  Oh well, I’ll just have to stash this away with my other handbags’ bags.

 

Currently:  Watching Modern Family – next time I drink chocolate milk, I might add a little bit of salt….

It’s brick out!

 

Windy and cold was today’s forecast. 

Today, I’ve donned my black Betseyville Orkney Boots with a long tan cardigan and leggings.  Since it was going to be cold, I’ve double layered the leggings with tights underneath.

While these are not as comfortable as my Nicole Stinson boots, it’s still fairly easy to walk on.

Since my shoe collection has grown, I’m in search for a great shoe rack.  One that can hold about 50 pairs of shoes.  Unfortunately, most shoe racks I’ve looked at doesn’t accommodate boots!  If you guys have any ideas, let me know.

 

Currently:  watching How I Met Your Mother.

Christian Louboutin for Barbie


Christian Louboutin has created a collection for Barbie. 
“This suite of striking Barbie® shoes is designed by the wizard of fabulous footwear, Christian Louboutin especially for Barbie® doll! Collection includes nine pairs of shoes featuring Louboutin’s signature red soles and each pair comes with a matching miniature shoe bag and box.“


Just look at the collection, it’s fantaboulous!




Barbie has always been one of my fashion icons growing up.  She has surpassed all the dolls by reinventing her style and it’s no surprise that designers has followed suit.  How I would kill to have her wardrobe!

Another rainy (but somewhat warm) day



Happy December!  First day of December and we are treated to about 1-2 inches of rain all day.  What a great way to start the Christmas season.
Since it will be raining all day, I’ve decided to wear my galoshes-which some of my friends would refer to as my Peewee Herman shoes.


So while googling the Peewee Herman shoes, it displayed some images of the Nike Dunk Peewee Herman. 



Not bad, love the light gray color!
