the 2 mimosa diet

Today can probably end now.
I've done everything I want to do for the day, can't it just be time for bed?


I  "accidentally" woke up to watch the Royal Wedding - it was an accident because I only wanted to turn the TV on at 4am so I could just open my eyes and check on things throughout the rest of my night. yea right. I was hooked. So basically I have been awake since 4am this morning, watched the Royal Wedding twice (once at home and then once with friends at 9:30am), been on 2 conference calls, sat in one meeting and re-designed a full page ad. All before 5pm. That people is what I would like to call a successful day.

Red Bull call me, I could be your newest sponsor. 

So was it just me, or did Pippa kinda outshine her newly crowned Princess sister? I've officially decided that all my bridesmaids have to look super ugly at my (never going to happen) wedding. On the bright-side, trash bags are cheap ladies :) 


But alas, I still have drinks to drink, friends from out of town to hang out with and I need to feed myself (apparently my 2 mimosa breakfast is not a sufficient enough diet for us early risers).


If you want to vote on some of the Royal Wedding's craziest outfits/hats and of course the most famous wedding dress in the world ... head on over to Outfitchec.com!


Here is a (rather blurry thanks to the mimosas) picture of the Royal Wedding watching party - enjoy!

i love k _ _ _ _ ?

Shirt: Gap

Tank: Target

Pants: Gap

Shoes: Nine West

I bought this shirt a few weeks ago at the Gap when all their tops were 50% off AND I had a $20 dollar off Gap rewards card. Basically, the Gap got robbed that day. I was able to walk out with this $50 shirt for a cool $6 bucks. bring it on Gap.


A very weird thing happened today. I think some would even consider what happened a revelation of sorts. An epiphany might be pushing the envelope a little much, but none the less I came to a realization.


Kmart is cool. It dawned on me as I was roaming the aisles looking for a slip (finally) .... that I could actually see myself wearing some of the clothing in their womens and juniors sections. Yes, I did ask myself if my one glass of wine had somehow gotten my drunk, if my cheapness had reached an all new low, and if maybe I had walked into the wrong store? 
Answers: No, maybe, and no.
I was very surprised to see magazine worthy maxi dresses, Jcrew(ish) looking bathing suits, super cute bathing suit cover-ups, and more importantly .... CHEAP slips!
Once you get over the fact that you are shopping in Kmart - there is an endless world of clothing possibilities. 


Who knows what's next... Wal Mart? Crazier things have happened.

Here's a few of my Kmart favorites - eat your heart out Anthropologie. you've got some stiff competition.

the white truth

Shirt: Gap 

Jeans: Gap

Shoes: Payless

I think it's also pretty lame (of me) that I have worn this shirt COUNTLESS times ... in fact this may very well be one of my favorite tops ... and ya'll have never had the (wonderful) opportunity to see it! I'm not sure why whenever I wear this top I forget to take outfit pictures, but I'm pretty sure it's because subconciously I don't really want you to know how much I actually wear this gem. 


I have a question for you - how do we feel about white denim? In all honesty? Gap, Jcrew, and LOFT are saturating their websites with these questionable clothing items and I'm just not sure which side of the fence I fall on when it comes to these purely whites.  
I posted them to my website, Outfitchec.com this evening, but the jury is still out. Log on and rate them!

Today is the day ... drum roll please ... THE VOICE!! 
I fell victim to NBC's relentless advertising and actually found myself re-arranging my Tuesday night TV schedule to see see what all the hype was about. I'll just go ahead and admit it: I'm lame. 


In other news, I had a WONDERFUL meeting today with a fellow Orlando blogger and a lover of all things pretty, Miss Mary, the creator of the beautiful design blog Olivet. Together we have brainstormed some pretty big ideas that  I think ya'll are really going to like :) No beans are spilling out of my bag .. you will just have to keep checking in to see what we have up our (always adorable) sleeves!
