Sample Sale

Thought I’d let you ladies know about the crazy awesome deals at Built By Wendy’s online shop. I ♥♥ all her designs and constantly drool over the emails I receive, so I was thrilled to find out there are affordable pieces ranging from $10-$70! I just bought the nautical dress!! It’s going to be perfect layering over jeans or long sleeve shirt for the cold that’s still lingering and then when it’s warmer I can sport it around over a bathing suit.
Heading to work soon and staying in Birmingham tonight, many more post coming up!

my gang outfit//top: Free People, jeans: Forever 21, purse.shades: Vintage 

The ladies and I went for a bike ride about two three weeks ago//of course I whipped out the cam to take some gangster photos. I love how they turned out and in turn we decided a new age peace gang needed to form. The gang consists of only ladies, on bikes, spreading good vibes & smiles around tTown.

Today is a snowiest Alabama Sunday I have ever seen and I am fully prepared to chill out to the m.a.x.//there is snow everywhere and it’s been coming down since last night! too cool. Don’t get me wrong it’s not the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd time I’ve been in snow, I lived in Kansas/Montana/Maryland and many more snowy states but it’s a rare sight’round here and I sure do love the view!
 Later tonight I’m heading to Kjo’s apartment for a mini potluck with some good peeps to chow down. Hope everyone enjoys the last hours of the weekend.

saturday night’s alright




I found this Native American button cover at the Salvation Army months ago and decided it was the perfect touch to the outfit.

the past week has been uber busy and I couldn’t be happier than to finally plop on my couch and sip on some wine. The photos above are from a couple of days ago hanging with my babe, grabbing some Panera, and running errands.  I love when the sun is going down and it barely peeks through the nearby buildings, I sweat some of Alabama’s sunsets are tropical. Last night I stayed with a kind coworker in Birmingham due to the extreme amount of hours I am putting in at the work place and had fun in the process. We visited Kelsey and then woke up to start a new day of hell (aka Belk Ladies Shoes)..my oh my this job is breaking me down, I am sore from my hips to toes and so tired of not being able to find a ((shoe)) mate in the stockroom. With around 70,000 pairs of shoes in the back I guess it’s bound to happen.  Tonight I am going to a friend’s party and bringing my own chair to sit on by her fire pit, I’m making sure I can take the weight off my poor feet. it’s sad. I know. 
Have a lovely Saturday night!

 Pretty Lights, a psychedelic hip hop duo from Colorado, produced an all night dance party complete with tons of crazies dancing everywhere//even the bathrooms//&&& a few glow sticks//that’s Friday in a small nutshell, it was great breaking some moves with old friends.


Today I had a real day off and went to the lake to celebrate my pop’s birthday and relax. My parents made turkey lasagna ((I don’t eat red meat and they made special accommodations, thanks!)) asiago bread, &  salad//we also gobbled down some yummy rum bunt cake made from scratch! I love f♥♥d//if you can’t tell.  oh yes, work tomorrow and Saturday so I may be m.i.a. spending way to many hours in shoe hell.

Hair Ball

Sorry about the lack of posts here lately but I have been working myself to the bones over at Belk.  They had me training Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, & Sunday and now I finally get to start selling on the floor tomorrow.  Things will be a lot better after I get out of the stock room to the floor and start making a lot more money.  On a non-work related note I had the craziest jam packed weekend starting on Thursday night with a wine tasting along meeting some new ladies that are super cool.  I took pictures multiple nights but just can’t wait to show the evidence from the Mardi Gras ball ((Saturday)) presented by the Mystic Krewe of the Druids downtown at the Bama Theater. The proceeds went to the West Alabama AIDS Outreach ((WAAO)) and as always the girls and I picked up tons & tons of freebie goodies including minis ((Absolute, Jim Beam, & Alab
ama Slammers)) beads, snacks, wine stopper, and so much more!  We started the afternoon at 3:00 heading to Emily’s place and snackng on fruit, veges, mini crab cakes, paninis, and champaign.  Then we all teamed up and helped with one another’s hair & makeup.  
so fun!! take a peep!!
