11 Random Facts About Me:

  • I set my alarm a half hour earlier than I want to get up because I like the “5 more minute” game too much.
  •  I don’t wear a lot of makeup unless I’m gettin’ fancy.
  •  I piece together a week or so worth of outfits at a time.
  •  We have 16x20 prints of magnified fracture surfaces from titanium samples hanging in our living room.
  •  I’m terrible at painting.
  •  My “To Do” lists are out of control. There is always a list within a list (if not within a list), it always seems to be revolving and never ending.
  •  I do my best thinking in silence.
  •  I really like to dance and sing. I frequently do these actions around the house.  I hate musicals though.
  •  I’m very “Type A” when it comes to organizing, planning, and keeping records.
  •  I kiss my husband when he drops me off at work, when he picks me up from work and before I go to bed religiously.  
  •  My day is not complete unless I have dessert.

11 Questions From Kimi:

  • How old were you when you got your first kiss? 12 w/ braces. It was awkward.
  • Coke or Pepsi? Coke!
  • Your favorite pair of shoes? Currently, my riding boots (either pair)
  • How old were you when you first realized you were awesome? Honestly, sometime during my mid- twenties. It took me a long time to figure out being yourself is way more cool than being what others think of you.
  • Favorite TV show of ALL TIME? You can only choose 1! Friends.
  • What do you call a winter hat? I call them just hats, even if some of you tell me you were a toboggan on your head.
  • Do you use a calculator or do it in your head? If it’s not 2+2, please hand me a calculator. And yes, I 100% know that’s sad.
  • If you had to pick a blogger from the internet to be your neighbor who would it be and why? Creeper Alert because I’m sure she doesn’t read my blog, but I’d pick Kristin. I ask my husband to reproduce about 80% of her recipes, I heart almost every item on her Friday Favorites and I think she’s on my wave length when it comes to workin’ on yo fitness.
  • Favorite toothpaste? Crest Pro Health is what I use, not sure it’s my favorite though.
  • How do you take your coffee? With some fat-free hazlenut Coffee- Mate, please!
  • Crushed, cubed or no ice? If it’s a glass of water or a cocktail I’ll take cubed. Anything else, I’ll pass.

Brights, Polka Dots, & Stripes!

A real winter storm has yet to hit Dayton this season and the random warm days have me longing for spring.  The current nautical theme in bright colors and bold stripes I’m seeing all over the fashion industry is not helping. The looks are fresh with the perfect pop of color.

I’m really excited for the arrival of warmer weather this year!

CAUTION: MAY CAUSE DROOLING

First and foremost I really want a pair of bright green pants. I’ve tried to purchase a few times but my size was sold out. I’m not giving up yet!

But if I can’t find a pair of green pants, my second choice to is pink. Be bright or pale, I think they are so fun!

I’m really drawn to the green and pink hues so if pant shopping is a total bust there’s always this green skirt:

Or this pink maxi:

Or this awesome green blouse:

Speaking of blouses, this yellow polka dot one is so playful:

And this top takes the guess work out of mixing prints!

Before I move on to the dresses (which are my ultimate favorite garments to wear) I have to make note of how much I love this skinny stripe mini:

Now the dresses. Oh how I love thee. This yellow stripe dress says “hello, spring”:

I’m not really a big fan of colored block garments but I love the combination of bright red and pink with the light tan bottom on this dress:

And if I ever allow myself to splurge on a dress from Anthro.. this rugby stripe number is my current pick. Wowzers.

Do you have a spring lust list?
