My around the cold office look.
Shirt Banana Republic
Skirt Gap it's suede and the hem fell. I used fashion tape to temporarily fix. Anyone had luck heat bonding leather, that's how it was original hemmed it looks like.
Boots Frye Campus
Hoodie Target
Pin Gap
Necklace was a grandmothers
Earrings my mil made
Without warmth layer.
Accessories.
Inside shirt cuffs and bangles.
I unintentionally built my entire outfit around my new spring shoes I ordered last night.
They are the "Matilda" by Bass. (some may know me as MissMatilda which was my online name for years. It is also what my mom calls me)
This weekend was great. We were those nuts who attempted to get an iPad Friday. We weren't even there at opening we went at 7pm and tried. It was a fun experience, the sales people walked around the blocks with cookies and drinks and everyone had a great attitude. People walking by would say nasty things. Seriously I saw no less than 100 people be complete assholes to the people in line as they walked by. The people in line all got along great and were excited when their waiting paid off. Everyone who walked out of the store had great bigi drank the koolaid smiles.
The girls love it too.
We also made the most amazing tortilla gumbo thingy last night.
Kinda winged it from a few recipes to our taste.
Stewed tomatoes, green chilies, black beans, brown rice, sprinkle of cheddar, grilled chicken, toasted corn tortilla, sour cream
How was your weekend? What did you eat and do?
Saturday we went for a walk and turned around and came home pretty quickly due to the crowds doing St.Partick's Day pub crawls. Gah. Drunks abounds. I did get this shirt at Banana Republic.

My weekend was pretty low key. I watched a lot of CSI and then went to Mohegan Sun casino on Sunday for a Lush run. It was obnoxiously crowded for a Sunday afternoon (I'm used to the normal casino crowd, but I could barely even get in the doors at Lush) I made a mad dash for part of what I wanted (what I needed) most and then right back out again.
Sweet kitties with ipads! Hubs wants one, but we just bought him a laptop.
I spent the weekend uber busy. I went and bought a bike! Which I'm excited to start riding once the weather warms up just a bit more. I ate lots of chili and cornbread that I made. Also lots of veggies. I also started watching Life on Mars (UK version).
My weekend was wonderful! Slept in everyday, caught up on the DVR, cooked pasta dinner with Nic on Saturday(fettucine with sauteed broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic with vodka sauce + steamed jumbo artichokes), had a delicious spanish casserole/stewy thing over homemade spanish rice at a friend's house so we could meet her new lady, cleaned our apartment (it was overdue like whoa), and just hung OUT.
I hate to be demanding, but I am ITCHING to know how the shellac came off?! I'm waiting for your final review before going for it... but so far I'm impressed and wanna try it!
And I'm so jealous of your spring-like wardrobe! The weather here hasn't quite decided what it was going to do (we were supposed to be above freezing all weekend, then - surprise - we had a blizzard).
I told my coworker the flower is to "class it up"

My big weekend news was that I took my first yoga class. I stuck out like a sore thumb. Oh well, I'm gonna try it for my own benefit, and hang what others say.
thats the thing. Why make fun of others who want an ipad if you dont want one. They were downright nasty to people in line. WHY is that ok?
H and I went to the art gallery, had hamburgers out (always a treat), and a long, long walk with hot chocolate at the end. And then on Sunday we worked on the new bathroom - well, H did and I sewed curtains. It was a nice weekend.
I am jealous of the ipad - I have to wait a little while longer.
the only reason I even partially validated it was because our tax return. the rest goes right into the piggy bank. I have to say though my computer has been a huge bitch and this is no joke u5039820 faster and I've done all my blogging on it the past few days. business expense? ha.
It doesn't look short from here, but I know that feeling. I was thinking about sewing a skirt with a slightly fuller bottom and ending it about two inches above the knees (to wear with tights). I thrifted some amazing fine cotton from the 60s I want to use. I will line it in cotton, but I have a short slip in rayon so the tights don't make it climb up my legs.
