I love me some cuff bracelets, probably because they typically fit my all too small wrists better than an actual bracelet, and I’ve been coveting these here lately!
Are you always wearing boring black? Why not move on down a shade and pull on some gray. Sure, the idea seems gloomy, but no ma’am. I happen to LOVE gray. I love it so much that I painted my walls in my house gray- every room a different shade. It’s such a great canvas to pop color against and it’s a pretty great neutral all by itself. BTW, do you say gray or grey? That always throws me for a loop.
Is anybody out there like me and on the hunt for the perfect t-shirt? I need a t-shirt to not be so thin that all my lumps and bumps show, to hit at just the right place in length and to not be tooo cap-sleevey, not too clingy but not too loose. And what the hell with brown t-shirts getting all decolorized swirly when you wash them? Is it so hard to buy a t-shirt and want to throw it in the washing machine and dry it and have it come out the same color it was before? You feel me? I’ve bought tees from all these places and while I do end up wearing them, I haven’t found THE. BEST. T-SHIRT. EVER. Have you?
It seems like we’ve been beating a dead horse this week, but the fact is…SUMMER IS HERE PEOPLE! What is another fab summer accessory?
I admit, I like a lot of you have that love/hate relationship with J.Crew–love the style, hate the price. So as obssessed as I am with checking out their catalog the minute it arrives in the mail, I always check out the crewcuts catalog as well. Which at first glance I thought was for only bigger kids. But guess what ladies? Crewcuts goes as small as a 2! That’s right! Crewcuts sale rack better watch out, cuz here I come!

Dear JCrew,
Why do I love you, and, more importantly, why do you have to be so expensive!?!?!?!?!
Here are some of my latest loves/envies:
An old time accessory that doesn’t get as much action as it should is the hat. I’m not talking about the ratty baseball cap that you use to cover those bad hair days when you are running errands. I’m talking about hats with real style, I’m talkin bout these…
So generally this is what happens with me…I’m surfing the interwebs and find a pair of shoes I like. I open them up to view all angles and what not and I’m like yep, those are good, those are really cute, those are actually super cute…yeah I’m gonna go ahead and get those. Close that window, pick my size, look at the price and then FAINT. I mean wow, what did they have to do to make those shoes that they would be THAT expensive? And it’s like they aren’t even like oh those are just a little overpriced, it’s like WOW those are like $200+ half the time.
So these are some of the shoes I’ve seen recently where I’ve just about fallen out of my chair. The only pair under $100 are the black sandals, but it’s kinda like um wow don’t I have some black sandals? Do I need to spend $70 something on a pair of black sandals? So anyway, please enjoy…I’ll be right here finding some more unattainable shoes.
Oh and by the way, you’re welcome.
Tomato TomAto. Not so much. These articles of clothing look quite alike, but in the price tag area, total opposites. Knock Off Time Ladies! My Fav!
