Valentine's Day Red Challenge - Day # 5

After a week of being home.. and happily wearing red the entire time... I am finally back to work. Although getting here included some challenges.. My car would not start this morning.. which is extra strange because Hubby started it and moved it yesterday. I guess the car wasnt ready to come back to work... But I sure was ready.

Today's outfit
Red sweater - Gap
Jeans with button detail - LaneBryant
snow boots - eewwww.. yuck! (lol)


A week sitting at home was starting to take a toll on me.. the boredom was setting in. So, after I tried the car and it didnt work, I had to come in and wake Hubby so he could drive me to work. Did I ever mention that Hubby has the "Midas Touch" on anything technology (say that 5 times really fast).. ofcourse he came out and the car eventually started for him.. but it was to risky, so he drove me to work anyway. I looove getting a ride in to work with Hubby. I feel like a queen being chauffered! (wink, thanks Hubby)

So although this is not literally the end of the week.. technically it will be the end of the week for me. My reign of red is coming to a close. I still had more red items, but i think its becoming red overload. I never wear this much red at one time.. for a few years, i didnt even like red... Now I may add a little red lipstick for Valentine's Day.. but i think my ode to red will end today! Until the next theme week, it was fun!

Valentine's Day Red Challenge-Day #4

Today's outfit
Red turtleneck - Fashion Bug
White floral cardigan - Macys
Studded Jeans - Macys

This was the outfit I wore while running a few errands. I had to get out of the house, but ofcourse there was not really anywhere to go. So hubby and I just went to the market to grab a few things.

This was the first snow.... on February 5, 2010

And this was the second snow, yesterday (2/10/10).... its just to much!

This Is IT!

.. and not the Michael Jackson version.

This is it.. my blog layout for right now. Hubby is a genius when it comes to technology and all things gadgety (lol). He was able to fix the issue I was having last night with the nav bar and I was sooooo excited. And then this morning as I was reading the daily dashboard, I asked fellow fashion blogger Texas Love, Life and Fashion, how do I get the three column layout? I figured it out.. and wowsers!!! I was so excited. But I figured that I had spent so much time on this one last night... (adding music and my own pic), I will just have to keep it for awhile. And change to the three column, maybe around my birthday time. We'll see!

In the meantime, this is it... my new blog layout! Do u likey? and what do u think of the muuuuusik! click through the player.. there are other good songs, and I will be adding more, so come back.. okay?.. ok!

Oh... fashion pics (and weather pics) later today... stay tuned...
I took some great morning pics of the snow in my neighborhood... two blizzards in one week... craaaazy!

Front and Back - Valentine's Day Red Challenge-Day #3

Today's outfit
Red button up shirt - Lane Bryant
Black sweater vest - Express Men
Jean skirt with the cutest kick-pleat in back - Fashion Bug
Black tights - ?
Booties - Nine West

Yup, you guessed it... I'm still snowed in.. But i thought i would still get dressed and wear my red today. This is the same skirt that I wore on this post. Last time I wore it, I wanted to show the kick-pleat in the back, its such a cute detail.

Hubby took these pics, and he was happy to be the human tripod on this day! lol

Still snowed in ...Valentine's Day Red Challenge-Day #2

Well I guess I will be doing in home fashion shows all this week. I am still home in the snow, so no work today either. But I did get dressed just for the challenge. I figure, hey, I have picked out all these outfits, I may as well wear them. My sister thinks I'm crazy for getting dressed when I'm snowed in.. but its fun, so I told her to leave me alone.
Today's outfit
Red dolman sleeve shirt - Macys
Black ruffle skirt - Fashion Bug (this is a reaaallly bad pic of this skirt, which has the cutest ruffle detail. See pic below)

Black patent slingback pumps - Macys (I never really wear these often cuz the sling back never stays up.. but they look cute)
Pearl necklace and flower brooch - Ashley Stewart
