Shoes, booze and Kiki La Rue

Ooooooooh First weekend of November came and went! *PHOTO OVERLOAD POST

  Friday was The BEST mail day Ever!!! Every year, I always want to get dressed up for NYE and then end up having no place fancy to go. I ordered my fancy pants dress early this year in hopes that I will make a definitive plan for New Years. Sooo, the gold dress from Kiki la Rue came in and ...

  BAM! I know right! It's friggin gorg!!! That being said my Friday only got better. Date night plus one. My sister's husband works for the electric company as a Lineman and he has been sent to Connecticut to help them with their power outages from that betch Sandy, in turn we adopted her for the night.  #OOTD

I apologize for the poor quality here.

Saturday

Due to Friday night's lengthy after dinner activities, Saturday was a very low key day. It was however, a perfect fall day for a fire, a few beers and some fishing.

bonus to Kiki La Rue...........pfst the koozie

Sunday

Since the hubs is still out of work due to his bulging discs and the Patriots had a by week, Sunday WE went shopping. I swear to you that my husband is not a homosexual. Yes he has been my hair stylist numerous times, he cooks, cleans, and dressed up as a pregnant woman for Halloween, but he is very Manly and I think he is the Jack of all trades. With this being said, we went to TJ mAxx, The Christmas Tree Shoppe, LL Bean Outlet, JC Penny, Famous footwear,  Ocean State Job lot and two cutesty little country stores in my neck of the hood. 

What did we buy? 

for all you "it's a little early for that" people, ignore this photo and the next 2.

 Christmas Tree Shoppe

 This picture is a HUGE deal. I had $20 in DSW rewards and I let the hubs use it. I think giving a kidney away would have been easier for me.

 Moose courduroy wallet for 4.99 from LL. Don't mind if I do.

I saw this little mug on instagram and I looooooooooved it. Online it was $20.00

Wrap up. Lets talk about day light savings time. I loved the fact that I could sleep until 10 but it was really 9 and I didn't waste the morning. I hated the fact that 7:30pm felt like 11:30pm. My appetite was also unsatisfiable. I'm thinking that may have to do with hibernation.
Way to eff with me Old Man Winter. Good times....

 

Summers Coming to An End?!

"I JOKE, I JOKE, I KID, I KID"

summer/fall 2012

Now that summer is coming to an end, this is my favorite time of year. Those of you who are upset that I just said that aloud, please except my apologies :) I love August and it leading right into the fall. I love that the summer nights get breezy and cool, letting you mix and match warm and fuzzy with sandals and pina coladas. We tend to have a lot of bonfires on the weekends and because we are so close to the coast, it gets chilly. Here are a few staples from my summer/fall transition wardrobe! The fedora is from Target. Mossimo and only $13.00!! Such a cute compliment to any outfit really. I have had my AE jean shorts FOREVER, so I don't even know what they cost anymore. It's a wonder they still fit :) The pleather flips are from  Old Navy. I always get a few pairs each year. I've been staying away from the traditional plastique rubber sandals, as our dog has an obsession with them. I like these flip flops because they are affordable ($12 bucks) and my feet are in and out of water all summer long, so I don't feel guilty tossing em at the end of the season. Lastly, is my FAV must have. It's my Victoria's Secret Classic Fleece Hooded Tunic. I know $50 dollars for a sweat shirt seems a little much but I PROMISE you, you will live in it. You cannot have just one of these either. They are so warm and comfy and super universal with leggings, shorts etc. They shrink a little so I recommend buying one size bigger :)

STAPLE. These guys go with out saying!. When I'm not wearing my "jackie o" sunglasses, or as my hubby calls them, Windshields or My boyfriend Beats me Glasses (funny not funny) my aviators are just as important to me as chapstick. LOVE these!!!
