what good days are made of

The best days start with Starbucks and end with dinner and sister sleepovers.That's a proven fact.

This dress is without a doubt on of my favorite fashion investments.  I love the cut, how it cuts at the waist, and the fact that I can layer with anything.  Good purchase, Bekah!

And somewhere between the coffee and a now deflated bank account there was some of this:

Not bad for a Thursday.

Waking up late + no coffee + not being able to decide what to wear + wreck on the interstate + gas light on (!!!!) + detour confusion + rainy afternoon threat = my morning.
All in all, I came out unscathed.  Thankfully.I got ready super fast, threw on the comfiest outfit at my fingertips and hit the road.Keeping it casual and simple, fo sho.  This transitional weather is irking me! I want to layer and wear my fall clothes and shoes, but by the afternoon we are still fast approaching 90 degrees.  Silly weather.
I would be completely happy with today if it weren't for the lack of coffee.

I mentioned a few posts ago about my TJ Maxx shopping spree.I guess it's about time I show off a little bit of that gloriousness.I was so excited to get this sheer, draping, leopard print jacket!It's the piece re-mixing dreams are made of.  I envision lots of knotted & layering looks in it's future.I went with a white tank under it, to keep it on the casual side, but I totally look forward to playing :)

On another note. tonight is the season finale of Big Brother 13.  I haven't talked about the show too much on the blog because this season has blown the big one.  The most interesting person left in the second week & the game continued to be steered towards certain people's favor.  Blah blah blah, it's over.  I'll need a new summer show to watch next year, because BB did me wrong this year.Adios Big Bro. 

MAXI-mum Monday

Hey chickens, big and small, how are you today?it's MONDAY!Hope everyone had a fun, safe weekend. I did a little girl's night out, a little movie night (Our Idiot Brother was FUNNY!!!), and I fell three feet straight on to my knees/shins trying to step OVER the pump at the gas station.  I'm a clutz, I know this, but today I am a clutz moving a little slower and sorer & wearing a maxi to cover the bruises.
M-m-m-m-moving on.... Mondays = shirt over maxi dress time.Just noticed... my headband is the most expensive thing I am wearing today.That's either sad or awesome.I'll leave you with that thought.XOXO

a bit better.

My patriotic outfit is all thanks to today being red, white, and blue day at school.We are remembering 9/11 today.  I can't believe it's been 10 years because I remember EVERYTHING about that day, when I was in the 8th grade.  Wow.
Thanks for all of the advice and help regarding my overexposureness from yesterday.I think I fixed the main prob, y'all rock.It's my favorite day of the week.  I get off work early, I get to go out with my girls, and I am getting my iPhone fixed. YAY YAY! AND BECAUSE I LOVE YOU & it's the weekend, I present you my "Yay, it's Friday dance"
