Super Sunday!


So another curly hair day.  I started the day with my bangs pinned back, but about half way through the day I took the bobby pins out and let my side bangs down.  I couldn't bare looking at my big forhead any longer!!  I know I'm terrible!  My husband says my forehead isn't even big, but it's just one of those things I've always thought since I was a little girl.  Least I grew into my big forehead more then when I was little!  lol I think we all have something we feel self conscious about that we feel is worse then it actually is in reality.  More often then not we're are own worst enemies in that sense! 

Anyway, the cream short sleeve sweater is from Charlotte Russe.
The blue tank and tan tank underneath are both Forever21                      
And the jeans are Bongo.

I love the back of the sweater. It's the first time I've worn it with a tank like this though, and I'm not sure I like it!  Either way I think the open detailing of the back is beautiful! 

I always have such a goofy expression!  Like in the picture to the left! I promise I will try to do better!  I guess I need to pratice posing infron of a mirror for a few hours!!! 

Also later on in the day I took my hand and ran them through the curls and I liked how that looked.  A looser curl but still decent volume!  I will continue to try new hairdo's.  I'm hoping that will make me look a bit more interesting! 

I know I've said it a lot but I really can't wait for spring!  I have a lot of cute new skirts I haven't worn yet because of this icky weather!  A couple more weeks and I will be able to break them out!!  Let's hope!  Anyway, I hope every single one of my readers are having a lovely day!!

OUTFIT POST!



So this is my first outfit post with my new camera that I had got for Christmas! Sorry to took so long, I didn't get a memory card until a couple of weeks ago, and then I have just been to busy to take any pictures.

The outfit is pretty simple. It's a new black sweater I recently got from Forever 21. It's so amazingly soft, that's one of the reasons I bought it. Plus I've been trying to by more simple pieces here lately. Since I can't afford to go shopping so often since my husband and I are now home owners, when I do go shopping I want to find pieces that will go with more then one thing. This black sweater I can just wear with jeans or pair it with a fun skirt. It's versatile.

Also, my favorite thing about it is the unexpected back.




I love the slits in it. It's a simple detail, but yet I'm in love with it!

Here's some closeups. These earrings are also new. I think they were under $4! So you can't beat that!




I don't know what kind of expression this is! Who knows what I was thinking! lol



My hair is getting pretty long. And of course I'm getting antsy with it. Like always. This is the longest I've ever gone with out getting a major haircut. I like the long hair, but I also like change. The problem is once I cut it shorter it takes forever to grow back out! I'm not fortunate enough to have hair that grows fast!



Sweater: Forever 21
Earrings: Forever 21
Jeans: Bongo
Pink heels: Wild Diva from Deb
(By the way, I didn't actually wear the pink heels outside since weather is dreadful here, with tons of snow and slick spots, it would be crazy for me to wear them outside! Oh, I can't wait for spring!)


Well, that's all for now girls! I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Outfit Post!!! Can you Believe it!?!?!

So my mother-in-law was kind enough to let me borrow her digital camera for a home project I was doing, and so I thought I should take advantage of having a working camera to use! Since mine, most of you know has stopped working. So It was awesome being able to actually take pictures for an outfit post for the blog! Oh, how I've missed that! I don't know why some of the shots are a little blurry, my husband actually helped take some of them! I know right, amazing?
OUTFIT:
yellow cardigan: walmart
white flowered tank: Forever 21
Jeans: Bongo
Boots: Payless

Christmas Tree: decorated by me! And this is the first glimpse, very small glimpse, at our new home! I promise to get more pictures of it soon for you all to see!





These next shots are obviously taken after football started Sunday after church, when football is on, my husband doesn't look away from the tv! So you get to see close shots of me! Sorry!



I've never put my hair up like this before. I had in in a ponytail and just kind of pinned it up with a few bobby pins, and you know I don't think it looks half bad!



Below: figuring out the 10 second self-timer on this digital camera.

And yes, that is our shower curtain behind me! lol The medicine cabinet had a decent spot to set up the camera!



So, what do you think, does my hair look alright up like that? I don't know how long it would really last, especially if I had to go outside in this dreary weather! Oh, and sorry it's not the best outfit for a long awaited new outfit post, but it will just have to do! :) Maybe if I'm lucky Santa will send me a digital camera for Christmas. My husband and I are trying to make Christmas more about the meaning rather than the money value of things, but maybe someone else in our family will want to spend the money on it! We'll see!

What are you all looking forward to this holiday season??? Any family traditions? I'd love to know!
