this is how i feel about this AM in nyc...

D's outfit

confession #1 - i'm in a mood this saturday afternoon. it's making me want to stay at home and not do anything. i actually need to head out to brooklyn for a bday party though so i am going to suck it up, throw a smile on my face and act happy. maybe acting happy will make me feel happy...?

confession #2 - i'm obsessed with this sweater. it might be a little unflattering but i still love it.

outfit details: sweater - given to me, leggings - AA, socks - present from my bff, shoes - nine west

D's last night in Vegas

I'm gonna miss you, Vegas.

D's inspiration

Wow. This picture has been on my iPod touch for a few weeks now and I haven't published it yet. As much as I miss NYC, I am not in a rush to get home to cold weather.

I'll try to get more shots of Vegas since today is the last day of my trip.

Red rock canyon

I very much enjoyed my tour of red rock canyon today...especially with my new retro camera app on my itouch.

How beautiful are these pics?

D's in Vegas

Yes, you read that correctly. Yours truly is in las Vegas and will be here for a few days.

I'm actually not staying in the strip buy my hotel is pretty damn impressive. I ate the greatest lobster, asparagus and cheese burger at the hotel and tonight it looks like I'll be heading out to the strip to check out a show and the hotels. Noe, I also have to attend a conference while I'm here so don't think this trip is all fun.

Hoping to take more pics on the iPod touch or even my camera. We'll see what I get.

In the meantime, enjoy your weekend and try not to be too jealous of my mini vacation. :)

D's outfit

whenever i'm feeling a little...dare i say it?...porky! i throw on this dress and feel mini again.

(don't mind my glasses in this pic--it's the end of the day and i'm super tired)

outfit details: blazer - h&m, tights - rite aid, boots - swirl.com, dress - club monaco via my sister

i'm leaving for VEGAS on saturday morning! so i really should be packing right now...i'm trying to get my packing done now so that i can just stay in the city the next few days before i leave. we'll see how that goes.

D's outfit

outfit details: sweater - h&m, skirt & boots - old navy (i've had that skirt forever)

the boo was so cute this morning. he reminded me to bundle up because it's supposed to be cold in nyc today.

nothing super exciting about my outfit today. i just felt like snapping a pic of it for the hell of it.

D's valentine's day outfit

i'm sorry, but i'm not a fan of valentine's day. yes, i think the whole idea is kinda cute but it makes me feel weird that people feel obligated to do something for their loved ones. shouldn't we be loving each other every day anyway? just my thought...

that being said, i will admit that i had a lovely 2 days with my boo. sunday we went to the sammy b fashion show, had brunch, then went for a long walk in the city before catching "blue valentine" in the theater. that movie was amazing. seriously. but not a love story...so be prepared to see some real relationship stuff.

i wore this outfit on valentine's day:

outfit details: dress - UO (i've had it for a long time but don't wear it often), tights and turtleneck - h&m, boots - swirl.com,  double finger ring - for sale here.

i shot these pics at night after a very long day at work and after work. i was tired. hence the glasses.

happy valentine's day, folks! whether or not you celebrate it, i hope you had an awesome day.

D's outfit

i've been feeling super sick all week s0 sleeping+work took over. the only fun thing i did all week was attend the laureluxe show on wednesday night which was AMAZING. i'm a twit and forgot to snap some pics so you'll just have to take my word for it when i say that everything was amazing and i loved all of her new pieces.

today is the kinda day where i wanted to be comfy but cute and not too hot in my coat. i'm actually going to join some folks at the bruckner bar and grill to watch them do karaoke. yours truly will not be singing. i don't think people want to hear my voice.

 leggings - AA, boots - swirl.com, sweater+tank - free, skirt+scarf - h&m

 my hair has been doing strange stuff lately...even though it's actually getting long. this all natural process has taught me that i just can't fight my hair. it's gonna do what it wants to do.

silly pic of me today. i wanted to snap a pic of my necklaces today - the skull one was a gift, the bird's skull i purchased.

here's another shot of me trying to get my necklaces. i guess i should have done a closer up shot. btw--yes, i am indeed wearing 2 double finger rings today. because, i wanted to.

i'm hoping to post more when things settle down a bit for me. i'm also hoping to hang out with a certain someone again soon to talk fashion, hair and drinks. :)

happy friday, folks!

D's inspiration

i've been sick lately so i haven't really been in the mood to blog at all. it's also been pretty busy at work so mainly i've been sleeping and working and sleeping even more. i should have been taking pics of my outfits lately but i haven't. no time. and i haven't even had time to do fun stuff!

in short--there's a lot going on in my world and not enough time in the day to spend taking pics or blogging.

BUT! because i feel guilty when i don't blog, i decided to post a pic i am feeling lately.

hot fire. i need to start creating more art.

this has to be a super quick post because i'm running off to work now. just wanted to say that yesterday was the first day i felt confident enough to NOT wear my snowboots. but today? back to snow boots. why? because it's a snow/ice day. sigh...
