I live for this mustard beanie (duh, right?) and my new tri-blend Silence & Noise top purchased at UO! I can’t seem to take this comfy shirt off, wore it to The Real Chow Baby, a fantastic eatery that is a build your own stir fry restaurant and again to an informal photo shoot I have yet to mention-(later on that).  I love pieces that are flexible enough to be worn everywhere with anything-those are the best! What are some of y’alls favorite pieces that go with everything in your closet?DSCN5556 another piece that goes with everything is clearly this purse I have on in every pic.

Now at Urban you can get their canvas tennies @ 2 pairs for $30.00-I stuck to one since I already have a black pair for the winter and went with these fun seersuckery numbers.
ugghhhh. This weekend just ended for me, entertaining guests this morning and afternoon until I bid them farewell back to Bamaland.  We had a fabulous weekend and even did a some shopping yesterday in Little Five Points and afterwards grabbing a drink and apps.  The gang and I pulled together and cooked many meals, as expected, which all were uber delish!! For now I’m chilling out enjoying the quiet and watching some TV via Hulu.

Ran to Urban some days ago and returned a pair of oxfords that I didn’t think was necessary and in turn left with three things at the same price; one of which was new stripped tennies! Anyways this what I wore, love this top I found at a boutique in Gulf Shores, Wild Flowers, several years ago and bring it out every year.

Yesterday was uber fun as we had friends from home come into town for a three day event, Dubocracy, which is a mini fest down the road featuring Dub Step tunes including White Noise from Tuscaloosa! We attended last night’s show which consisted of wicked light shows, a free stylin MC & lots of beats! We have all been kickin it around the house after venturing out to the farmer’s market in Decatur and stocking up for several feasts-two of which have already gone down.  I am definitely going back to visit that market, it really did blow our mind!
5 days and counting till the announcement of the Wildfox Couture Crop Top Give Away-be sure to enter in that post!!

YARD SALE XTREME

Never got around to posting [the event] in the paper, or hitting up local markets with flyers either, but we did nail many signs around the surrounding blocks which I think helped out a tad///

kept the Cardinal pillow after thinking about it, had the thing since junior year of high school and got a little sentimental. Overall I wasn’t bad about doing that and with a little help got pretty good at pricing-at first I was setting the standards too high, heheh.

just about every pair pictured was bought and the rest given away.

After a couple beers and baking in the sun I decided to play dress up towards the end of the day-included Grits cause I know she loves getting jazzed up.
Pictured is the sweet vintage top Emma gave me-which I can’t seem take off-totally RULZ, Express skinny jeans & Zara shorts.

End of Day One our loot was looking a little scarce but that didn’t stop us from having Day Two, I just didn’t snap any photos-just wanted to be done with it. 
Hope y’all enjoyed, I went to CVS and got a picture CD since I couldn’t wait for my camera’s USB cord to arrive-too excited to show off the yard sale pics!
Happy Friday-go out and enjoy yourself!

Added a photo from the beginning of mine and DP’s relationship, one of my favs. People often say to us we are a cute couple and it makes us feel real good.

I love LOVE unicorns and thought this was the cutest ev!

Hope everyone’s week is going splendid-the interview today went great and I’m waiting to hear back!! still crossing the fingers!

Farewell Alabama!

Pretty much have everything moved! Well except for little bro’s car jam packed with a load-oh and my town house containing a small trailer load, so I guess there’s more work to be done!! I’m hoping to get family help and not be semi-solo anymore driving back and forth has taken a toll on the checkbook. 

My last couple days in Tuscaloosa I spent time alone in the house organizing my crap-o-la and took some photos////

Sadly MiMi couldn’t come to the city since she is a feral cat and needs the outdoors, but once KJO is back from New Hampshire Miss Kitty will have a caregiver.

Bought this rocking chair (Missoni look-a-like!) from the 450 Mile Yard Sale in Gadsden, AL for 10 bucks and sold it at my yard sale to some pals for 8 bucks. Enjoyed it for two years and now it’s with new folks seeing new things. For three or so nights a week ago I stayed by myself at the townhouse in Ttown and only had one chair: the rockin one above. I slept on a full mattress placed on the ground with two flat sheets and small fan aimed right on my sleeping area. It was nice to have a couple last days with my home, I tend to get sentimental when leaving a former homestead. Grits, Miss Kitty and I hung out and enjoyed the peacefulness of small town life for a little longer//

In the midst of packing my USB cord went missing and another one is on the way, lots of photos trapped on the camera and coming soon!! Tomorrow I have an interview with Anthropologie @ the Lenox and am super excited, don’t want to get my hopes up but I am crossing the fingers!
