Black Friday




Coat: Gap (last year) -amazing gift from my cousin Makayla, Shirt: Banana Republic Factory, Jeans: AE, Necklace: Groop Dealz (if you've never seen this site, check it out NOW), Belt that is undone, I can't catch a break: ASOS, Shoes that almost killed me: Go Jane

This post. Oh, this post. The post that almost killed me.
My sister and I were walking out to the car to go take these pictures and there I was struttin' my stuff in a fur coat, Ray Bans and 5 inch heels cue hip-hop music video music; now, mind you my 5'7" self is standing close to 6" foot at this point in time. I took one little misstep and that was just about the end of me. I was so high up that I knew I was going to fall, yet I could do nothing to stop myself. I just let out a most-dramatic "ohhhh myyy gooooooooosh!" My sister barely bothered to help because she didn't think I was even serious on account of my dramatics. 
Oh well, I made it and carried my shoes to the photo location.
This is exactly why I rarely do heels! I do believe I also fell yesterday in my Thanksgiving heels.
I'm sure I looked nothing short of Scarlet takes a tumble. << click it, click it, do it!!

Now I know why they call it Black Friday

I smell a series

My Pinterest style board has become my most frequent 
wardrobe consultant. I try to pin outfits that include pieces 
I already own so I don't go into a downward spiral 
coveting every piece of clothing on the internet while on a teacher's salary. 
I also like it better that way so I can put my own spin on the 'fit. 

Here we have it. 
The Pinfit (Pinterest outfit)

Myfit (Figure it out)




ALSO
It's a tweet, it's a pin, NO!
It's a guest post!
My awesome cousin Missy of Cobb Mobb featured me on her super cool blog. Her blog is filled with hilarious goings on in her life coupled with amazing pictures. 
Find her here.

Accessorize

Have you ever gotten a piece of jewelry that you just know that 
you're going to have for a lifetime? A piece that just 
has so much permanency and joy to it? No? No such serious jewelry? Well I did. This weekend.
My best friend asked me to marry him. 
I said yes. 
For the good of us both. 
This was us pre-engagement. 
That was actually the night before it happened. 
Just not a good look. 
Dating obviously did not look good on us. 
Enter, betrothal. 

We had plans to go to Denver this past weekend but I, being the 
responsible teacher I am, decided we should hang back. And so ensued date night. Normal, run of the mill, date night. We went out to dinner, shopped and got a movie. We were talking about the ever popular topic of marriage in the car on the way to my house. We parked, I got out and unbeknownst to me, my other half was about the make the biggest move of his life. He simply got out of the car and met me with a little box. All I heard was "Well, I don't want to wait any longer." The rest is a blur, a love coma of a blur. All I know is that I think I said yes kidding, I did!

It's that time again

Must Have Mondays save me. I love love my blog but sometimes I'm drained on a Monday darn it. Must Have Monday rescues me because I am definitely never short of things that I want. I want I want. As much as I can rattle things that I want off I must also rattle this to ya, 

"Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious." 
1 Peter 3"3-4 ESV

Yeah, soak that in.

P.S. Totally flattered that people even care; engagement post coming soooon.
BRRRRR
