Good News & Bad News

by //

Want the bad news first? Well, the bad news is that my pictures didn’t turn out too great today. But the good news is that I got at least one good one and you can see my new white watch in it! I’ve been wanting a great one for some time now and I got this beauty for Christmas. I had no idea I was getting a watch for Christmas and I got Bob a watch too! He didn’t ask for his though, I just got to guess. What do you think?

Today was a pretty chill day. My sister-in-law invited me to see Tangled with her and her two amazing kiddos. It was pretty fun. My niece closed her eyes when the little cartoon characters kissed! Ha! So sweet! Then I just worked. So this is what you get for a day like that: a sweatshirt. So sue me. I’m not Victoria Beckham…I’m just a style blogger who likes to dress down sometimes.

The Tree (Outfit 20)

by //

We got the tree! Yippee!!! It took us a while, but we found a pretty cute one. I always love looking back at all our old trees. One year we got a tree about 4 feet tall. It was so little and cute, though I much prefer a taller tree. This year’s is about 7 feet tall. And I think I’m going to go get this to put on top! Do you have your tree set up?

Here’s our beautiful tree before Bob cut it down.

What To Wear: 30/30 Challenge

by //

OK, here is the plan for the 30/30 challenge (details here). I got really organized this time and actually wrote out 30 outfits. This is unlike me. I’d rather fly by the seat of my pants, but last time I felt I was losing momentum and needed a little help, so this time I decided to just make a little cheat sheet. I think I’m only going to use it if I’m desperate.

I really don’t like wearing the same outfit more than once (not sure why) so I think after making this list it’ll force me to be even more creative because I’ve already “worn” a lot of these outfits in my mind and want to move on. Ha ha! Hopefully the creative juices will flow freely. Or I’ll just resort to the list.

Oh, and I’m waiting on 2 items to come in the mail that will be added to these 28 items.

Here we go!
