Stolen Goods

Aldo Shoes, Gap (remember I dyed it last summer) skirt

 This is what I call my stolen goods outfit. I swiped the trench a few weeks ago from a certain ten year old who doesn't appreciate the value of a good trench jacket.

I may have or may not have stolen the shirt out of a certain somebody's closet as well. It wouldn't be the first time. It won't be the last. The trick to is to wait until he leaves for work to avoid the whole "No, man that's my good shirt" speech. I timed it perfectly.


Whatever. It served a purpose today.

Karaoke

Check out my thrfiting tips over at Stylish Curves!

This is what one wears to a Karaoke bar.


If one wears this, one might also look forward to singing the following songs:


1. Hey Ya by Outkast
2. "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tiffany
3. "Hold On" by Wilson Phillips
4. "Still the One" by Shania Twain
5. "Poison" by BBD


One might also be disappointed that the DJ didn't have LL Cool J's "I'm Bad" or Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer" or even George Michael's "Careless Whisper."

Don't try to figure me out. Just accept me as I am:)

SALT


No dramatic story about my outift today.
I made some whipped red potatoes.
I put too much salt.
Massive headache.
Now, I've gotta go lay down.

(My facial expression in this second pic makes me giggle...I so wasnt' trying to do that:)


H&M Dress
Trench Coat stolen borrowed from a ten year old who doesn't appreciate that I'm a stylist and picked out cute "back to school" clothes for her. So, now I wear the trench. No plans to return it either.
Sam Edelman Shoes
Necklace: courtesty of  ...Love Maegan!



P.S. I used to say I RUE the day that  food will affect my body parts. That day is here...but the potatoes were still good:)

Rocking the Turban...I know some people are over the turban but I kinda love it. I'll be over it soon though. You know how I get!

By the way...I would like to announce that I'm a beast. I actually went to the gym at 5:30am! I went to a spinning class. It started at 5: 30am...I walked out at 5:45am. I swear I'm no punk but those bike seats are NOT made for me! I did not leave the gym though...I stayed and got on the treadmill.

Yay me!




Juanette and I decided to pull off the Marie Claire look. (Her secret weapon is that she has a crinoline under her dress for the "full dress effect"...My secret weapon is that I am JUST plain "full"!)


And don't forget to shop SFAM's Closet! Thank you for the support we are getting through emails and twitter and facebook! We already have orders to keep us busy! I am really aiming to be my own success story instead of reading about them...and SFAM is one HUGE step towards that!

GFS Feature: Christ Chic and Forgiveness

I went to church today.

(Thrifted Trench, Thrifted American Eagle Dress)

 But I think the devil was trying to distract me. Everytime I would just about bow my head in prayer, I would catch a glimpse of a furcoat walking down the aisle! IN 70 DEGREE WEATHER!?!? I promise you Texans just can't wait for even a cool breeze.  I counted 4 fur coats just before the sermon.

The choir helped me regain my composure though. But even that was ruined.  My vision was acosted by atleast three lace front weaves on children in the choir stand. It is NOT okay to allow your kid to look like a real life Cabbage Patch KID!

I made it through the sermon though. It took a second for me to get ahold of myself but I did it. It was about forgiveness. Forgiveness of all kinds. Forgiveness to people who do you wrong. Forgiveness of family grudges. Forgive those who don't even deserve it. Because it frees you.


(Pour La Victoire "Irina" heels, Jones NY scarf, random fabric that I forced to be a clutch:)

Then I walk out after church and saw what had to be a seven year old girl wearing black knee boots WITH A HEEL!

I DO NOT FORGIVE THAT.



(I made a quick shoe/purse change to run errands)

Next Sunday, I'm not wearing my contacts. It's better for everyone involved.

99 Red Balloons

This post really has nothing to do with balloons but it is my 99th post which makes me think of one of my favorite songs from my childhood. Remember 99 Red (Luft) Balloons by Nena? I used to love that song. I think I was in elementary school when that came out.

I just wanted to show you my "thrifted trenches."
The above pics are of my London Fog thrifted trench for 10 bucks. I got this trench months ago and took these pics a few weeks ago...just now getting around to posting them out of sheer boredom while fighting against being in a funk.

I thrifted this Vintage Burberry Trench a few months back also...Ten whole dollars:) I am one thousand perecent positive that I didn't tie this correctly. It had too many contraptions and I am one of little patience.




Short post... I know.




Great Song.
