Purple is my friend.



I have to admit, I am loving the color purple...red has always been my signature color but for some reason I'm leaning towards purple this week. I added the black belt on purpose to give me some sort of neutral, but overall I was very happy with my look...not bad for literally trying to leave the door in 5 min.

I hope I have the same luck tomorrow...

Introducing my new leopard print sweater!



Back in September I bought a leopard print sweater that I wasn't to fond of and gave it away to my niece. I did end up going back to Macy's and buying the one I'm wearing today and I like it 100 times better.

I'm so happy I decided to wear it today because I really did feel cute! I'll be going out of town the first week of January, so I want to start planning my outfits now, because living out of your suit case for a week isn't fun ~ do-able...but not fun.

Happy Birthday Mama!


Today is my mother's birthday and I bought her a blender :) Well, other things too--but she had to open the blender box to see the extra gifts I put inside the blender.

My husband says the first picture looks like I'm about to strip, but I think its wishful thinking on his part ;) Today was a good day, but I'm happy tomorrow is Friday!

Tuesday & Wednesday






I recently purchased this red jersey dress from Banana Republic (I heart you BR!) I've been looking for a red dress for a long time and finally found something that was simple and comfy like my pajamas :) It sort of bubbles up on top which is a feature I'm not to fond of, but other than that its the perfect red dress IMO.

I already have visions of how I can dress up or dress down this dress and I can't wait for my man to take me out at night so I can wear it as a night dress :)

Some of my co-workers had a weight loss contest and it ended yesterday...boy, was this the wrong dress to wear--It is a wool dress and it had to weigh 2 lbs..so I was bummed I forgot about the contest and I wish I wore something lighter...but I was warm!
OHHH--the scale said I lost 4 lbs in 1 month...I was happy with that, but I didn't win...the winner lost 13 lbs...which is fantastic and she looks great!

Friday & Monday




My husband loves to watch Tabatha's Salon Takeover on Bravo, however he won't watch any TV without me, so I had to sit there at watch a few episodes and was inspired with her black wardrobe. I feel black is a little to harsh on me (compared to brown) but since I was seeing a customer on Friday I decided to wear the black.

This morning I woke up to rain...I do like rain, I just wish I wasn't driving in it, but overall I wanted to show you my brown trench, since you've seen most of my colored ones.

Mental note: bring jacket



Yesterday was much colder than I thought, and since the man in my life is at work and unable to keep me warm, I must remember to bring a jacket with me from this day forward.

I miss wearing pants, I forget how warm and comfortable they are sometimes. Ignore the funky poses, I'm trying to be creative :)

Blue & White



Not completely excited about this outfit, I think I need more inspiration, time to look at more blogs :) I've been on a pant kick, so I will probably wear pants this whole week. I'm guessing because the weather is getting a lit bit chillier, but not cold enough for a jacket yet. I cannot wait until the temperatures start to drop, I love cold weather :)
