D's outfit

i got some crummy pics of my thanksgiving outfit. eh. i think it's partially my fault since i wore all black. but still. these are pretty stinky.

i hope everyone had an amazing thanksgiving (and remembered some things to be thankful for!) as well as a great (black) friday. i'm not doing the whole black friday thing...i did it before and was miserable...so i figured i would spend my friday decorating, working on christmas gifts and sleeping. sleep is so nice.

outfit details: leggings - AA winter weight (i've been living in these), sweater dress, blazer and multistrand necklaces - h&m, shoes - payless, feather necklace - f21

D's thank you

 happy thanksgiving!

my family is pretty laid back when it comes to thanksgiving and the table setting, but if it were up to me, i would love to recreate this for our dinner:

*love*

anyway, there are always things to be thankful for. my list:

michael's arts and crafts store.

late night shawarma after a night of drinking.

lazy sundays.

my big curly hair.

big chunky jewelry.
dunkin "deathwish" donut.

and most of all: my family, boo and friends.

D's outfit

my hair has been super large and in charge lately and i kinda don't care to do anything about that. i keep going back and forth in my mind trying to decide if i want to chop it, or let it grow. decisions...

anyway, i feel like i should do more outfit posts. but i always forget to take pics.

outfit details: shirt and sweater - no idea where they're from b/c i got it them for free, jeggings and boots - h&m (i have an insane obsession with h&m lately), necklace - my sister thrifted it for me.

i'm looking forward to thanksgiving because it's the best time of the year for homemade food. but did you know that thanksgiving eve is one of the biggest drinking nights of the year? true fact. and i fully intend on having some adult beverages tonight.

happy thanksgiving eve!

the other day i quickly snapped a few shots of a thrifted dress i bought myself a few weeks ago but haven't worn. the color is amazing, the details are to die for, the fit is just perfect and the price was just right!

outfit details: dress - thrifted, sweater and tights - h&m, shoes - aldo

i am looking forward to the weekend and REALLY looking forward to monday. at 6pm on monday, i will be on a break from work till the following monday at 11am. to make life even better, i already bought my ticket for "harry potter" so that's the first thing i will be doing when i get out of work on monday. 

have a great weekend!

D's outfit

friday night, i went to a going away party for my cousin's boo and could not figure out what the hell to wear. finally i decided that i would go for comfort and heels.

 outfit details: blazer and multistrand necklace - h&m, white shirt - target, sweatpants and feather necklace - f21, shoes - payless, earring - my cousin made it

i was also going to wear my new coat but it was too damn hot in nyc:

coat - thrifted. and yes, that's a fur collar. holler.

i might be rocking the sweatpants and heels look all winter. it was awesome.

D's eye makeup

i tried a more dramatic eyeliner a couple of weeks back. not sure how i feel about it but doesn't my monster-doggy look so cute??

random wednesday

lately, i've been tagged on a ton of random pics on facebook.

my favs:

from my 10 yr hs reunion. i'm short.

so random. halloween 2010. 

my face is classic in this pic.

i wonder what the hell i was saying to the boo at this point. look at his face! 

my bday. 2010. 

my personal favorite and new fb profile pic.

nyc marathon

if you follow me on twitter, you know that on sunday i spent part of my day out in the cold streets of nyc rooting on the marathoners. 

i was attempting to track my amazing friend, udee, on his run when i realized he was at mile 18...so we checked the map and figured out that if we ran from 93rd st on the west side to 96th street on the east side, we'd be able to catch him before he ran his final miles in the park.

actual map of the run. 26+ miles!

while waiting for udee, i snapped this pic of 5th ave (around mile 23):

confession: there's something about events like marathons/olympics/world series that make me kinda teary eyed. i think it's the idea that people train their whole lives (or for a year) for this one event and it means so much to them...idk...i'm weird.

anyway, after waiting for 10 minutes, the boo and i saw udee go by so i gave him a HUGE hug. we then waited an hour and a half to see the boo's friend...which was awesome because we saw tons of people go by...but when he finally came around 95th street, we walked with him for a few blocks into the park...he was in a lot of pain but i'm damn impressed he did it.

going to check out the runners might become by new yearly thing to do...

...but i might need to do another half marathon this year....

My new earwarmer

Thank you h&m for this awesome turban style earwarmer. It's cold in nyc this AM.

New sweater

This week has been wonderful. At work I received a free polaroid camera (the old school kind) and a ton of free clothes. Free clothes!! I'm telling you-this week has been wonderful.

I'm not staying at home so I had to snap a pic of the back of this sweater and write this on my cell phone. Please excuse the crappy pic...

Happy friday, party people!

bday wishes

happy bday, bff!

i love hanging out with you...

D's outfit

my hair really sucks today. hence, why i'm wearing my bear hat!

it's quite chilly in nyc this week, which is a huge change from last week which was 70+ degrees for a few days. i love this weather because it means that i can wear a short sleeve shirt with a sweater and a scarf with my leather jacket. when the temperature dips to lower (30 degrees and below), then i will be complaining about how cold it is.

for now, i'm going to enjoy the fact that i can wear tights with skirts and boots.

outfit details: shirt & sweater - got them for free (b/c i'm a luck girl), skirt - AA, tights & hat - h&m, boots - my green boots

dia de los muertos

happy day of the dead.
