I want to try something a little different for the next weekly want-it’s post. I want you all to send me an item that you are lusting over or even an item that you bought that you are in mad love with and I will post the items and link back to you all. It will be great to get to see new items and new styles! So your homework is to comment below and send a link of what you are currently obsessing over. I’m so excited to see how this plays out!

I see your true colors shining through...


A week later and my run in with the concrete post is showing it's colors better than ever. It's kind of hard to tell but my entire knee cap is still a little swollen and it is yellow w/ splotches of purple and on the outside lower part of my knee it is entirely purple. Pretty eh? Purple and yellow, just for the Vikings! Too bad it's a buy week for them! Haha! This isn't even including the hefty (but nowhere near as bad) bruising I have on my left knee, left elbow and upper right thigh. Yep. I'm slick.

So to everyone out there, beware of those pesky concrete posts. They are sneaky little fuckers. You won't even know what hit you until you are flat on your arse and crying in the wind and rain and having your husband, sister and boyfriend look down at you and laughing at your graceful (read: klutzy) fall. (This winner of a picture was taken minutes after my fall. Notice how my darling hubby is smiling and holding my stupid broken umbrella which was the cause of my fall. Zero sympathy. Thanks.) Real nice.

You'd think that my sister would be more sympathetic to my fall being that not long ago she took a spill down concrete steps at work. So yeah, the smoothness... it must run in the family. Take a look at her goodies. We are awesome.
On a side note, on Sunday I will have had this blog going for 2 years! I can't believe it's been that long already. I'm not asking for any congrats messages. I just want to tell you all that it has been a blast and I'm going to keep on keepin on w/ the blog even if sometimes I get a little boring. Just don't read me if I ramble! :) Love you guys!

Cheers~

Halloweiner nearly killed me

No weekly want-it's post this week. I am a wreck. This weekend was so much fun it nearly killed me. I am still trying to recover. I had an unfortunate run in with a concrete post (literally). My knee is a nice shade of purple so it cheered on the Vikings yesterday for another win against Green Bay. Yay! :) But other than my knee looking like a purple baseball this weekend was awesome!


We had two parties we went to over the weekend and both were a great time. Friday night we went to our friend Zach's party (thanks Zach!) and Saturday we went to Picosa. Since I killed way too many brain cells this weekend I'll just let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy. *Doesn't Wade make a great bull? Haha!







How was everyone else's Halloween? Anything fun or exciting happen?

Happy Monday!

Flea Biscuit, Wine in a Diet Coke Can and Halloweiner

Thank goodness it is Thursday. The end of the week is near. Halloweiner is coming and so is my dear sis and her boy toy, Todd. Teehee. We will be having a blast and I can't wait!

Kobe, my little dear pup, has somehow got fleas. He has never in his 7 years on earth had fleas so I don't know what to do. I've bathed him twice and put a flea collar on him. Last night I went Nazi on our house and washed our sheets, his doggie bed and the blankets we had laying around and I vacuumed the carpets and rugs. How the heck do you get rid of these damn fuckers? I am about to fumigate our entire house b/c it is making me all paranoid that I have fleas and making me itchy and I am going insane trying to figure out if I really am itchy or if it is all in my head! I'm going psycho! So any suggestions from my dear friends would be greatly appreciated.

Tonight we will be watching It's Always Sunny and drinking Riot Juice out of milk jugs. Can this show get any better? Seriously if you are not watching it then shame on you. I'm not sure we can be friends. Just kidding. We can be friends but I will leave you in the dust w/ my IASIP jokes and references and then you will feel dumb. Here I am last week w/ our rad neighbors. I had the worst wine headache all day last Friday so here's to hoping the Riot Juice will not do the same to me tomorrow. *crossing fingers*

Kobe is going to be a Rock Lobster* for Halloween. It was the only costume I could find in his size. He hates it b/c it has an attached hood/hat so I have a feeling he will be wearing it for a total of 5 minutes. But isn't he adorable??? *If you don't get the Rock Lobster reference, check out this video. Family Guy is great.
I was looking to see what we went as for Halloween last year and couldn't find any pics. That must mean that last year was lame and we didn't dress up for some reason. If I don't remember it then it couldn't have been anything spectacular. Right? Or my memory is just for shit (which it is). So instead here is a picture from Halloween 2007. I was a deviant housewife w/ my "handyman" Wade, Kara was a hippie and Nicole was a cowgirl. And yes, those are condoms in my pocket. Safety first!!! :)

Coming up tomorrow night, a party at my friend Zach's place and our 1st chance to wear our costumes. I can't wait but Wade is dreading it b/c he hates his bull costume. Then Saturday night another costume party at Picosa. So we get to wear our costumes TWICE! This has me majorly stoked and Wade majorly pissed. Oh well. I think our costumes will be a hit! Pictures will be sure to be posted next week so stop on back here! Until then I hope you all have a rad Halloweiner! Have a ball but be safe! I think we are taking the bus again! Whoopee! Responsibility FTW!

Happy Halloweiner! (I just wanted to type weiner again, I know I'm adolescent.)

Weekly Want-its: Bag Edition!

Liz from It’s Unbeweavable asked me to do bags and since I adore this chica more than I adore sequins, ruffles and plaid combined* (which = a hell of a lot) I thought I’d try to make her a happy lady! (* could you imagine a plaid, sequined ruffle dress??? Holy shitcakes! Too much of a good thing I’m thinking!)

I found so many. Bags and shoes are my weakness. So prepare yourselves…


Yves Saint Laurent Downtown Tote – Love the color mix!


Nine West Rory Satchel – School girl meets fashion = pretty rad bag!


Nine West Nedim Clutch – Sequins? On a clutch? Sold!


Kenneth Cole New York Caged In Tote – A little sexy, a little naughty, caged in tote.
Melie Bianco Chain Trim Bag – Does anyone else love chains? I do! And combined w/ purple is sweet!

Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Wristlet – Small, precise, sweet, stylish and a gorgeous light grey. I love this one.

Kenneth Cole New York Fold Away Satchel – For the professionally hot business woman

Juicy The Queen’s Garden Tote – Love the style and details plus I think I could pack my life in it and that is totally rad.
CK Liquid Leather Woven Wristlet – So cute. Nuf said.

Chloe Paddington Canvas Satchel – Chloe canvas is so casual cool.


Alexis Hudson ‘Sans Gabrielle’ Flap Messenger – Love the small bits of blue animal print!
7 For All Mankind Canberra Shoulder Bag – Perfect size, perfect amount of badassness chains, perfect amount of pleating. Perfect!

Ugly time. I’m pretty much over the whole skull and crossbones shit. And when you combine that w/ a full on beaded clutch, well, it just doesn’t work for me one bit. Ick. Moyna Skull Fold Over Clutch
It’s hard to find a sexy bag. So I just didn’t even try. Instead I’ll give you a sexy bikini. How about that? Sexy Sexy!!! Juicy Ruffle Halter Bikini

Next week I may be doing an ugly hats post at Drollgirl’s request. She’s pretty sweet so go check her out in the meantime.

Tata suckas!
