Fake Bronzed Goddess

I am embarrassed to say that my baby was born several shades tanner than me. Living with two Italian skin toned men has a girl feeling a wee bit pasty. And since my days of fake n’ baking are done, I found myself venturing down the aisles of self tanner saying enie, meanie, minie, mo and picking the one that smelled the least like ass. I picked a winner and I would like to share it with you today. I have been using it for over a week and I am neither pasty nor orange. WIN!

Race Me to the Finish Line

Man, I dig  a racerback tank top. I could seriously wear one every day. They don’t require a strapless bra, they have a sporty and unique look from other tank tops, and for some reason I think they make peoples shoulders look better…that one is probably all in my head. So, I stumbled upon this tank at Gap. And besides the fact that I am in love with the model’s haircut, I could and probably will own this tank in every color.

Green with Envy

Call me bat shit crazy, but I have been obsessing with pastel colored nail polish for quite some time now. I’m not talking about your lovely baby pink or soft beige, but more of an Easter egg blue or minty green. I have no idea why I am being drawn to these nail polishes. I don’t even like pastels normally. So, am I crazy or are would this shade be awesome on my nails?

OPI, Go on Green

My Inner Egyptian

Hellllo there. It’s been a while, so I thought I would ease my way back into things with one FABULOUS piece of jewelry. It’s basically a steal at $7 and would go with just about anyone’s summer wardrobe. Check out this arm candy, folks.

Fabulous Footwear Friday

These are out of this world cute for summer time! I’m not totally in love with the pricetag, but you win some, you lose some. Gotta bite the bullet for beauty sometimes!

Best Boy Onesies Ever. (Featuring Stripes)

When we threw AK a baby sprinkle for her second bambino, she received the cutest of onesies I have ever seen. I just KNEW I had to have them for my little guy. Of course, the are Carter’s. I love Carter’s. As much as my baby has a dunlap, he still if of the longer and leaner variety when it comes to babies and Carter’s seems to be a great fit all through his first 7 months. Anyway, drum rolllll…. here are the cutest, most basic baby boy onesies ever. LOVE LOVE LOVE them.

For Keepsy

I’m sure by now y’all are all aware that we are Instagram users and abusers. Yep, I plaster photos of my kiddo all up in random people’s faces all day long with that super fantastic Iphone app (derberto if you are looking for me). Did you know you can also use Keepsy to create a photobook of your Instagram pics? WHA-WHA!

Stripes Even on My FEET.

Speaking of stripes and my love for them, these. Combining my romance with stripes AND a flat sandal? Delicious, I tell ya.  

Shorty Love: Stripes

We are ablazin hot in these parts, so I need to show a little or a lotta leg  in Texas this time of year. These are on the tad bit teeny weenie side of shorts for me, but  A-DOR-ABLE. I have no idea what kind of striped flavored crack these advertising execs have put out there, but I’m smoking it. That’s for sure. It’s an addiction.  And for $13.50 I think I can make the investment.
