One Item Three Ways - Whitey Pants Edition

I'm trying something new and that is actually talking about fashion a little bit! I love putting together outfits. In fact my new obsession is an app/game called Covet Fashion where I can put together outfits and get judged by a bunch of other people that may or may not know anything about fashion. I may or may not know anything about fashion. Who knows anything about anything when it comes to anything really? I'll tell you who knew about fashion actually; Alexander McQueen. RIP. Tear. 

Ok lets get started! I put together three looks using Polyvore (sooooo addictive). I wanted to start this new post series with white pants/jeans. I did a look for Fall, Spring, and Summer. The Fall look could also be done in Winter so I didn't completely leave it out!

Fall/Winter:
So for this one I went with a big ol sweater, some flats, simple jewelry, and clean makeup! I also dig the big bag and coffee because what is life without a honkin bag and a cup a joe?

Spring:


Awe... I love this. I love Spring. I love floral and stripes. I love little booties. I did a bit of a contrast so it wasn't so saccharine and sweet with some darker makeup/nails and rocker jewelry! Perf!

Summer:


Are you kidding? I die for that yellow bikini top under that black tank! So cute and vacationy! Another big bag, round sunnies, and simple makeup and you are ready to spend a day in the sun! I can't wait for Summer!!! 

If you want any info on the clothes or makeup here just check out my Polyvore page!

Snow No!

Hey. It snowed. 




It hardly ever snows in Nashville. We get maybe one "good" snow a year and by good I mean like 2 inches. This was about 6 - 8 inches. I know to my friends in the north even that seems tiny, but to us it's enough for our government to declare a state of emergency. And that is what they did. No I am not joking. 




It's all gone now, but for about 3 days the situation seemed pretty dire. No bread or milk anywhere to be seen. People walking around in coats, and hats. Snow people as far as the eye could see...It was terrifying. 

This was the 3rd day I believe and we finally ventured out to take some photos and play at the greenway. 


I think I'm good now as far as Winter is concerned. I'm done. Bring on Spring! I don't think I could stand the sight of another snow person...*shiver*

Laid Off and Laid Up

Hi friends! Sorry for my absence lately! I never meant to stay away for so long! I had planned on blogging more, but life always seems to get in the way. For instance, I was laid off last Monday! Yay for me! To add insult to injury I got a stomach bug on Saturday. 



I fully expect to get back on my feet quickly. I'm not one to sit around and do nothing, and not working is making me a little crazy, although looking for a job is a full time job! 



Over the holidays I nabbed this sweater at H&M in the men's section for $5! That's the kind of deal a jobless person looks for! Don't ever be afraid to shop in the men's section ladies! Sometimes you find some very useful items, and I don't just mean hats, and scarves, and socks, and beard combs! 



I hope everyone is having a great 2016 so far! I'll keep you posted on my job hunt. Send me your good juju, and prayers, and love, and just for good measure; beard combs.

LCC Gift Guide - The Man In Your Life


Hello friends! I'm back with another gift guide! This time it's for the man in your life! It could be your husband, boyfriend, father, brother, cousin twice removed....Either way these gifts are for boys...

I forgot to number these by the way, but I think you can follow along. 

Resonate Gifts: A cool idea for anyone really, they take a recording that you make and turn it into a bracelet or tee shirt using the sound wave. So whether you say "I love you" or "What's up pickle breath" you have a gift that means something!

Whisky Rocks:  A good gift for the whisky drinker in your life! Cool them in the freezer and they won't have a watered down drink. Also that website (uncommongoods.com) is pretty awesome. 

Movie Memorabilia: One of my favorite things to do for D each year is to get him some Fight Club memorabilia. I always check Ebay and find so much! Whether you want to spend $5 or $5000 I guarantee you can find what you are looking for, and it's a sweet way to say "hey, I know what movies you love."

Butt & Face Soap: Because why in the heck not. 

Beard Comb: Does the man in your life have some untamed whiskers? Why not get him a way to groom them? I linked one of my favorites, but you can find tons of grooming tools if you poke around. 

Leather Journal: I love getting people journals. I think it's the coolest gift. Maybe because I love to write and draw, so I want everyone to write and draw. You could even have it monogrammed or do what I did for D last year and write a note of some sort in the front so it's really personal.

Hello Wall

We took these pictures next to a wall. 


I'm having some serious writer's block right now. I swear I can think of a million things to write about during the day, but sometimes when I sit down to actually write a post I draw a huge blank. I wish I drew a huge bank instead. Then I could be rich! I don't know if it would actually work that way, but it's my imagination so I'm gonna go with it. 




Do you guys daydream? I mean I do it a lot. Where would I like to visit? Where would I like to live? What if I were a Kardashian? I don't really want to be a Kardashian. I would be a terrible Kardashian in fact. I am not big on plastic surgery, and as big as my butt is, I'm not quite at the Dash level. This outfit is a little Kardashian though. A romper and tall boots... Not near enough lip or tan though. 




In conclusion I would like to thank this wall. This wall made me look good. Or maybe I made this wall look good...Either way we made a pretty good team while these pics were being taken and I appreciate the effort it put in. Here's to you wall. Stand up straight! Believe in yourself. One day you might get to be a backdrop for someone much more famous than myself. Maybe a Kardashian!
