Yeah sorry...

I haven't updated in a little bit.  I've been ridiculously busy getting ready for a huge event my work had.  But I have the day off which I've already decided to spend buried under covers and trying to catch up on my TV shows.  I have some kind of gunk (doesn't everyone right now) which is making me congested and hurty so I'm gobbling my dad's recipe of vegetable soup in heaping spoonfuls.  It's making me feel a little better.

This is just a quick clothes post and then I'm off to hide from the cold and rain.

November 3rd:


Hat from 109 Magazine, Shirt YesStyle, shirt Target, jeans Kohl's, boots Couripie.

November 5th:


Sweater Treasure Factory Style, jeans Colleen Collection (Target), shirt & boots Kohl's, necklace Payless.

November 6th:


Sweater Allamanda, necklace Kohl's, jeans Colleen Collection (Target), boots eBay (Shiekh), shirt Target.

November 8th:


Cardigan Treasure Factory Style, jeans Colleen Collection (Target), shirt Uniqlo, shoes Target and necklace Forever 21.

November 9th:


Shirt J.Crew, jeans Colleen Collection (Target), shoes Payless.  Another one from my twinner:


Except I got a different color. 

November 10th:


It was our late Halloween event and this was my costume.  If you don't get this, I don't think we can be friends.  But here's a hint:


I had the umbrella and even the scarf and gloves but it was really sunny and nice so I didn't need either of those.  (Someone snapped a lovely pic of me.)


I was quite popular and many people wanted their photo with me.  :D

I hope you had a lovely weekend and are well (you'd be better off than me).  Back to bed!

Oops sorry...

I had all these notions of updating my blog this week, all of which failed.  I would have done it yesterday but I don't know.  I ate some cream cheese that was a bit past expiration and I think that's what made me deathly ill.  I did eat dinner last night but I was fighting, fighting to keep it down.  I thought it was a good idea too look on Pinterest but everyone's pictures of food made me sicker.  I was in bed all night.  I think also earlier that day I way overdid it.  I was running around doing so much stuff and out in the heat without eating and all that just pushed me off the sickness precipice.  Anyway, I am feeling better now but I've decided to take it easy today.  I want to go to Bookman's and sell some more of my books but I think I'll wait and see what the day brings.  I have a terrible headache and my stomach is still iffy.

Anyway, on to what you came here for...the fashion!

Monday:


On second look, I probably should have worn leggins instead of jeans.  Anyway, dress and shirt from HushHush (Japan), scarf & boots Kohl's, jeans Colleen (Old Navy).

Tuesday:


Shirt & pants Target, shoes Charmant (Japan).

Wednesday:


I love this dress so much.  I don't love that it's linen and wrinkles when you look at it.  Plus, I hate ironing.  Dress Uniqlo, necklace made by me, leggins & boots Kohl's.

Thursday:


I decided not long after putting it on that I don't really like this sweater.  I just don't like the way it looks/fits.  Jeans Colleen (Target), boots Kohl's, sweater (Colleen) & shirt Target, necklace ????.

I want to end with Kit Kats since I went to Japan and I, of course, had to feed (literally) my Japanese Kit Kat obsession.

Here's what I tried:


You're looking at Strawberry, Sakura Matcha and Vanilla Kit Kats.

First of all, Vanilla beats Cheese as my new favorite flavor.  So delicious!  Sakura Matcha was really good too and Strawberry was just okay.

Here's the ever growing list:

Cheese
Almond
Ramune
Berry Pomegranate
Apple Vinegar
Peach
Green Tea
Tiramisu
Wasabi
Vanilla
Sakura Matcha
Strawberry

Brief update on "the freeze."  Greatly resisted Goodwill Sale Day.  The only purchases this weekend were food and gas (necessities).  Good so far.  I'll keep you posted!

I'd like to welcome my new follower: Yunie Gal Circle!  Thanks so much!  I hope you like it here!

I hope you had a nice week and an even nicer weekend.

A week in fashion (Japan)...

I wore some stuff while I was in Japan. 

I really can't remember the days.


This was before I figured out there was a better mirror in the hall.  Jeans Colleen collection (Old Navy), sweater and boots Kohl's, necklace made by me and tank Colleen (Target).


Sweater Kohl's, dress Uniqlo, jeans Colleen (Old Navy) and shoes Charmant in 109.


Sweater & tank, skirt  Goodwill, legwarmers eBay, tights Icing, necklace Forever 21 and shoes Target.


Jumper, shirt & tights Uniqlo, boots Kohl's.

I hope I was fashionable in Japan!

So tired!

The story of my shoes...

So I found these shoes in a Japanese magazine.  I found and bought the exact pair on eBay.  Supercheap, of course.  They came to me with a broken zipper.  I tried to exchange them but they were the seller's only pair in my size.  They refunded a portion of my money.  I took them to shoe repair.  Apparently, even though they said a week to fix them they didn't actually fix them until the day they were due to me.  So a week = a day in shoe repair land.  I went to the shop twice.  I finally got my shoes and the zipper was fixed.  They sat in my closet.  I wore them for the first time today:


I'm not so sure what is wrong with my face.  I'd like to try them with a dress or something.  Top from YesStyle, leggins from Zizibeh, necklace from 109 and the hairbow was a necklace from H&M that I made into a barrette. 

Tomorrow I have a second version of my Saturday outfit planned.
