déjà voo doo

Don't let my outstanding French knowledge distract you from the fact that I wore brights and (different) leopard flats yesterday.  I went to Marshall's last night while waiting on a friend for dinner, and this little orange cardi just jumped in my arms and begged to come home with me.
Waaaay too forward.
All in all, we have had an amazing 18 hours together.  I love you, RLL cardigan.
(especially your buttons, wink.)
We have a bright future ahead of us.
If you like accessorizing like a little girl or Katy Perry...
(obviously I am both one or the other)
Then you'll love my clutch I found at the thrift store yesterday.
That baby set me back a whole $3 and she was not as needy as the cardigan,
 but she was cheaper, indeed.
I bought some great stuff, and am having wild ideas of doing a VLOG haul!
Thoughts? Yay, nay, may-bay?
They take me very seriously at work, y'all.
Planning summer camps can be tough, the only prescription is more fruit.


HEY YOU!
yeah... you...
Have the best day ever, okay?

Neons, Brights, & Buns... Oh My!

I did not really think I would get in to this Royal Wedding hullabaloo.
As it turns out, I am completely enthralled by every single aspect of it.
Kate Middleton is gorgeous, and she is going to be a princess...uhhh awesomesauce.
The ring, the dress, the ceremony... cannot wait.
Last night I watched the Barbara Walters special AND the William and Kate movie 
and another special on Lifetime...

I am considering it historical research and calling it good.
Bring on the extravagance.
I wanted to wear as many bright colors as I could and this was the result.
Thus, why I am linking up with the Color Brigade today.


So, what do you all think? 
Are you obsessed with all things Royal?
A little, or a lot?

Either way... here's some thoughts on my mind:

This really motivated me today:

My main focus...

Lastly, I reeeeeally love this nail art done by Kara at Sprinkles in Springs:
I'm gonna get on this tonight... lovely, lovely!


HAVE A MERRY DAY!

adventures of the highly-caffeinated dress wearer


work approp.
GOOD MORNING to ALL my chickens 
(near and faaaaarrrr!)
I missed you oh-so much.  Don't you hate weekends that fly by, yet when you get to work Monday, you forgot how to do your job, or worse how to drive?
That's me today.
I quickly regained my ability to drive after some caffeine...
whoa... that was close.
after-work approp.

I love embellished necklines
on dresses and shirts, because you don't have to wear a necklace.  Accessorizing is my last thing to do in the morning and I am always rushin' like a fool, 
so mostly I forget altogether.
Want to try something super delicious? 
Because I need caffeine for the first four straight hours after waking...
Diet Mt. Dew Supernova,
You win today because you taste delicious, with just the right amount of bubbles,
 and you have a cool name.
Yes, I just took that at my desk.
Which means I am actually wearing this outfit today.
Look at me!

I hope you all had wonderful, long, relaxing weekends!
Love ya tons, little chick-chicks!
(p.s. how bad do you wish you were 5 again so you could go easter egg hunting?!)

Me and the tripod had a better experience today than yesterday's disaster.
However, I still was not feeling as "bright, shiny happy" as my boss told me I looked this morning.
Not sleeping in my own bed for the last three nights has had quite an effect on me.
I'll be heading home tomorrow, tomorrow, 
I love ya tomorrrrowwwww.
(oh, sorry, sometimes I burst in to song)

Ch-ch-ch-cheers!
It's Thuuuursday! 
We are almost there.
