I'm SO Fashion. Obviously.

First off, thank you for all your sweet comments yesterday. If you are having a bad day, just go read all the sweet comments. I just wanna say BIG GROUP HUG!! Whew, I feel better.

Maybe I should start a blog where we all just vent about our "problems"? I feel like we could all use the venting space!

Moving on.

------------------------------

The lovely Susan (aka Susan in the South) forwarded me an e-mail from Glamour magazine earlier this week.

The e-mail talked about how "smokey beige" is the color of February, and then went on to recommend a few shades, one of which was Commander in Chic.
What I'm trying to say is, really, I'm so trendy.

Ok, I'm usually the complete, 100% opposite of trendy. However, today, I am trendy.

Speaking of trends.... you know what trend I am HATING right now? The fact that stores only have short-sleeves and tank tops in stores.

Have they been outside recently?
(Took that photo this morning. It looks like snow, but it's actually fog frozen onto the tree. Crazy, huh?)

Any trends bugging you today? Want to tell me how trendy I am? (Kidding.)

Happy Friday!!

Ahem

How long has it been since I've written a coherent post?

A long time? Heh, you might have to wait one more day. Why is that?

Well, as you may recall from last week I travel through the country roads to get to my doctor.

And I have to go back early this morning, only we've got about 4 inches of snow on the ground so instead of taking my quick country route (in blue), I am forced to drive on the major highways, which takes me about 10 miles in the wrong direction.

See my awesome paint illustration below for a reference.
Blue=fast, green=sloow.

Glad we're on the same page.

Yesterday, I ate my weight in heart-shaped cookie dough. (Recipe here.)
I kinda love that picture of the cookies. Would make a great header for my cooking blog.

You know, the one that I'm going to write in all of my spare time. Cause obviously I don't need to put in any more effort around here.
---------------------------------------------
Also, the gray nail polish manicure is still awesome. The only finger I've chipped is my left pointer finger. It chips no matter what I do. Obviously I need to stop pointing at things.
Go Sally Hansen!
---------------------------------------------
Gotta go dig out my car before I get dressed or I'll be soaking wet by the time I get anywhere.

How's the weather in your neck of the woods?

(PS I apologize for complaining about the snow to all of you who have two feet on the ground. Sorry! You totally have it worse than me!)

TGIF!!

Kids, it’s finally Friday. Which is both happy and sad for me. I can feel my funemployment days coming to a close and that saddens me… but on the other hand I don’t start till the 15th so one more week of fun for me!

Just a couple of notes.

• The magic yoga pants were in a laundry basket full of old sweatshirts under my bed. I’m an idiot, I know.
• The ring is still missing. I prayed to the patron saint of lost items but still no ring. Don’t worry, I’ll keep you posted.
• Thank you for all the sweet comments this week. I’m waay behind on replying to them, but that’s life I suppose.

So today I was all excited to post about my new foray into nail polish. And then I was reading over at Sweet Simplicity and she totally scooped my new find – Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure! Oh well!

I have mentioned here before that I really only enjoy reds and pinks. I’m a traditional girl like that.

But something crazy came over me this week and I had to have a gray/taupe/purple color. Had to have it!

Enter Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Commander in Chic. It’s got a little pinky tone to it as opposed to being a straight-up gray color (which makes people look like corpses, in my opinion).

I really need a 3rd coat to make this look complete, but I’m excited with the results. I feel so fashionable. Clearly, I don’t get out much.

Am I the only one who’s afraid to rock “different” nail polish colors?

As in, I only wear red and pinks. Until today.

What’s your favorite nail polish color?

(Mine’s OPI Dutch Tulips, a perfect pink.)

Happy Friday!!

Tuesday Randomness...

I felt like I had a coherent post rattling around in my brain when I woke up today.... but somehow I've already lost it.

I've discovered a new color to feed my OPI obsession.

OPI Malaga Wine. I tried to take a picture of it on my fingers (or toes) but... wow my hands are clearly not hand model worthy.

For the past 2 days, my period key on my laptop has been broken off. The key itself is fine... but somehow the little plastic thing underneath it broke. This keyboard is less than 2 months old... I replaced it during the Great Chocolate Milk Fiasco of 2009.

In other news, I plan on spending a good quantity of my time today shopping and cheering up my friends... so maybe I'll have something new and fun to share tomorrow.

But then again, maybe not.
