so i dream of things like your golden wings

sweater: Nordstrom Rack.....top: Gap.....skirt: Ross
mini-socks: Payless.....shoes: Payless

I look very matronly in this outfit.

The only other time I wore this skirt, I paired it with a snug sweater, and it just looked right.

Oh well, back to the drawing board, but, at least, today's outfit was comfy.

slip into stillness and be above it all

sweater: JC Penney.....t-shirt: Marshalls.....skirt: Wal-Mart
mini-socks: Target.....shoes: Aerosoles

i'm fierce, and i'm feeling mighty. i'm a golden girl, i'm aphrodite.

This was an easy outfit for me to plan out the night before. A dainty black dress and a bright sweater.

Ta-da!

sweater: Target.....dress: Jovovich-Hawk for Target
mini-socks: Payless.....shoes: DSW

I've been doing a lot of shopping in my closet. Being a hoarder, I have kept clothes even though they didn't fit. Well, those clothes fit now. This dress was one I couldn't part ways with, and I'm so happy that I can comfortably zip it up. Size 9, baby!

Can you feel me in stereo?

Comfy outfits for a relaxing weekend.

This is how I looked on June 26:

t-shirt: Castaway Cay gift shop......jeans: Charlotte Russe
socks: Target.....Chuck Taylors: Footlocker
hidden belt to keep my pants from falling down: Mervyn's


Castaway Cay is Disney's private island in the Bahamas. Brian and I have been on two Disney Cruises that stopped there.

Saturday, I walked around downtown SJ for a little grocery shopping at Zanotto's and to pick up dry-cleaning. Later that day, I did more shopping at Whole Foods and I cooked three racks of babyback ribs for Brian. Yes, three racks.

This is how I looked today:

t-shirt: San Jose Sharks store.....skirt: NY & Co.
mini-socks: Target.....Chuck Taylors: eBay


I purchased these shoes off eBay because they're teal and they go with my Sharks jerseys. According to the box the shoes came in, the shade is officially "aqua," but it didn't match any aqua Chucks that I had seen in stores.

Brian and I visited my family, and then we had dinner at Chevy's.

i'm hooked on your line, under your spell

Latest pop addiction: Kylie's "Cupid Boy"

I love this song as much as "Like A Drug" and "I Believe In You."

This is how I looked on June 25:



sweater: Loehmann's.....dress: Tulle
mini-socks: Target.....shoes: DSW

I tied a small bow because I know a huge one would have been ridiculous.

every time we touch, i'm shooting the stars

I may have found a solution to my disappearing chest dilemma...

Just wear a really tight shirt.

This is how I looked on June 24:


sweater: Nordstrom.....t-shirt: Marshalls.....pants: Ross
knee-highs: Target.....shoes: Aerosoles

The super-snug shirt makes it look like I still have a decent-sized bust. Kinda? Not really?

Anyway.

Why on earth did I buy a shirt that's a size or two too small? When I first purchased this shirt, I was going to use it as a layering piece under a low-cut and/or sleeveless dress. And I have worn it under dresses. I'm all about being modest.

But on the 24th, ehh, why not, I wore it as an actual top.

i can never get enough. you got the good stuff, good stuff.

sweater: Rue 21.....skirt: Ross

I have no idea why I like pairing this sweater with a grey skirt. I really should try this top with a green or a purple skirt.

**starts a wishlist**

you want out, but we're off the ground. so, pick out your parachute.

This is how I dressed down for the SJ Sharks select-a-seat that night:

sweater: JC Penney.....leggings: Target.....shoes: Payless

I tried my hand at trying to find slightly better seats for the 2010-2011 Sharks season, but I didn't have any luck. So, we're keeping our original seats. But I had lots of fun wandering through the empty arena, trying out lots of seats.

Yep, select-a-seat = fun for me on a weeknight!

i still run this thing like a dancehall queen.

Monday is sometimes "serious outfit day." I'm coming down from Sunday, so putting some thought into Monday's outfit can be a chore.

By the way, I had a really good time this past weekend. Thank you, Rach! :)

The most exciting part of today's outfit:

customised adhesive bandage: first-aid kit at work

TMI - This bandage is covering the fugly pimple on my fivehead. And covering it up was necessary because my hair kept bothering it and I couldn't stop touching it. Bleh! So, maybe it is a blessing that I'm growing out the bangs to wear it sideswept.

i lost my head when the poor wind blew

The only other time I wore this patterned skirt, I wore it with a black sweater and purple shoes.

Today, I decided to pair this skirt with a purple sweater and black shoes.
