New Year, New Loves

So when I said I'd be back in 2012 I really didn't intend for it to be almost March when I blogged again! Where did time go?

It's Spring, almost Easter and Valentine's Day flew by almost without even being recognized! However good things have been happening in all this chaos.

Two of my current favorite good things are my new full set of vintage Pyrex and my new Emersonmade jeans. I am officially in a blissful state of delirium over them. I have been wanting a pair since Emerson released her clothing line... At least a year ago! They're mine now and I have to say I will probably never be wearing any other jeans. I am a convert, a believer, a lover of all things Emersonmade and to my hubby's dismay my monthly clothes budget is in need of a growth spurt to support my need of Emerson's line:)

The Pyrex just makes me smile. It's pink after all and glass so I don't have to worry about storing our food in
Plastic (which I completely obsess over). I was helping my BFF pack and she mentioned needing to get rid of "that pink stuff" because she got it in a lot at a garage sale and she never used it. You better believe I jumped on it and took it home before she had an epiphany and changed her mind!

All in all life is moving along at a break neck pace; but we're enjoying every second and celebrating as much as we can along the way with little treasures and loves!

HappySpring!

New Year, New you?

via

Happy New Years Eve! Do you have big plans? Or are you like me and enjoying the festivities from afar? We're holed up in the house with the heater on, relishing the last night of Christmas lights.

However, if we were going out I would most definitely be wearing these pants! They're so festive and perfect for a night out on the town!

Hope everyone has a lovely New Years Eve evening!
I'll be back in 2012!

JBrand Knock Offs



All the leftover deals from Thanksgiving that have been going on lately have led to some great shopping as far as I'm concerned! As we all know I love the colored denim trend. I probably have way too many pairs but there are so many fun colors out right now that they are hard to resist.
Target has these two options and I couldn't help myself, I bought both. They are almost a dead ringer for the JBrand jeggings/skinny jeans. Love them! They run super small though as a warning. Kind of a hit to the ego:) I already have red jeans but they are men's and fit more in the boyfriend range rather than skinny jeans range. At twenty dollars a pop these Target versions are perfect; especially if you want to try out a trend but don't want to drop the major bucks for the real thing! Go get some! You'll love them, promise!

Mine!

As if I don't have enough boots, I totally had to make these mine too. They're on sale at Anthro; seventy dollars off. That and the fact that they are literally the most comfortable boots I have ever put on made them a must have! If you're in the market for some new boots for this season these are them! They also have a brown version but something about these just sings to me:)
Happy Wednesday!


Oh and since tomorrow is the beginning of December we are officially in Christmas overdrive in my house! Love it!

Public Service Announcement


This stuff right here is amazing! Just thought I'd throw that out there. I love it. Usually I am not a fan of any type of self tanner. I turn orange...it's my Irish skin. We don't do self tanning, or regular tanning for that matter. It just doesn't happen. But a friend of mine was using this and I, ever the optimist, decided to give it a try. I've been using it for two weeks now and I can officially say that it is great! :)

Bath and Body Works used to make a lotion with self tanner in it that I loved. It came in a few of their different scents and it was super gradual so there was no chance of messing up. Of course, they discontinued it. Story of my life. Since then I have been hunting for something to give me a little natural looking color. Nivea came through for me! I bought mine at Target. Go and get some! It really is wonderful:)

Happy Sunday!
I'm posting my Thanksgiving menu tomorrow! Mmmm!
