What a week, huh?

Whew, what a what a!  It's good stuff but man, it's Wednesday indeed. 3 Things: 1.  I'm caught up on the Teen Mom catch up sessions with Dr. Drew and I got to say, Amber has come very far.  I respect her for getting her shiz together and being who she is.  Tough to overcome a past and she truly gives each day a valid effort.  It's crazy watching both of the Teen Mom series because the girls have grown up literally in front of the world's eyes.  Good for these ladies for taking a tough situation and moving on with life. 2.  Kate Spade wedges.  I want them alllllll.  The black Dellie with daisies??!!  The ice cream Dotty ?????  You will be mine...   Dellie Via Dotty Via 3.  Roni turned 8!  Our girl's actual day of birth is the 8th, but we've always celebrated on the 13th since we did not know her real birthday for years.  So this year we go with today, the 9th.  This little firecracker ...

3 Things

1.  You know you're an adult when you randomly hop up on a Sunday night saying I'm gonna make a quick frittata!  And you do. Y'all, I didn't even have to look up a recipe, my mind instantly knows what distinguishes a frittata.  It came out delicious BTW-tons of fresh spinach, onion, Parmesan, shredded mozzarella, and 6 eggs =  adulting win. 2.  If I went to the Oscars, I would definitely wear something popping.  It wouldn't be at all predictable or simple.  I would wear bold colors, a unique shape, something that could potentially get me on the worst dressed list.  I kid, I kid, but really, I view this as an opportunity to have elegance yes, but I also say do it big.                          Sha                    ...

When a Man Loves a Mouse

Once upon a time two weeks ago, I was minding my own business, when the seductress of my dreams sent me an email.  Yes, that's right; my dreammaker known as Kate Spade, emails me weekly.  It's kind of our thing, she emails me stylish and fabulous things, and I drool and suck the air out of the room gasping with delight at alll the pretty things. This particular email, with a subject of Into the Wild, made mention of new goodies on her website.  I said to myself, "Don't even look.  You're not in the market.  You have enough leopard.  You don't care for zebra.  Maybe just a peek to assure yourself."  By the way, welcome to my inner thought process. As soon as I clicked, my heart stopped, my jaw dropped, my good intentions went out the window.  There, in all her glory, as part of the Cat's Meow Collection , was a MOUSE satchel!!!!!! Quick back story: My grandpa has called me Megan Mouse my entire life.  He does a happy squ...

Splashes of Yellow and Hints of Pink

Today is the last day of #20HappyDaysInMay , which has been hosted by the always hilarious The Daily Tay . I jumped right into this Instagram photo challenge after doing Helene's #30Photosinbetween challenge . I made both challenges my own and chose to blog about each photo topic, each day as well. Well the results are in and out of 50 days of blogging opportunities, I only missed two posts! They happened to be yesterday and the day before so my endurance game held strong. I'm pleased. Blogging is the best and I'm really enjoying finding ways to push myself to stay at it more consistently. I have a few ideas that I've been inspired to chat about so stay tuned for some fashion, food, and weekending adventure updates coming to a blog near you! (This blog, they're coming to this blog ;)) For the last of the #20HappyDaysInMay challenge, I give you muah , a la splashes of yellow and hints of pink: Until we meet again, M

Looking Down

If you are not new around these parts, it should be of no surprise that I love getting dressed . It's the best part of every single day in my opinion. Some of my favorite outfits are the ones that come together based around one key accessory. Take for example, the ring in this picture: This particular day I wanted to wear that ring so I had it tie together my dress, bracelet, shoes-you get the idea. Among many reasons I love to blog, an extra fave part is being able to revisit fashion posts. I adore looking back, or down, at various shots that make me recall "Oh yea, that look!" Now if you'll excuse me, I must get to playing dress up in my closet for a bit. I have some exciting outfits planned so stay tuned! Before you go, tell me, are you into looking back at your fashion choices? Until we meet again, M

Almost summer

I love fashion, particularly summer time fashion. The bright colors, patterns, the sandals---summertime gets me! When planning this outfit, I figured it would be best to OOTD-it with a pre-summer look encompassing all of my faves. I needed something that would keep me cute, but also cool cool cool. Here in the good ol'sunshine state, we have officially crossed through the threshold of dog ass hot, humid, sweat in 2 seconds of being outside heat. Good times, Florida. I usually feel a little silly posing for style shots until I get going. Then I like to think it comes naturally. Yea, that's it. Natural. When in doubt, get fancy with that stancey! And of course, get those accessories working for ya! The best part of any masterpiece is the cherries on top. Go 'head and throw on some fab jewels in fun punchy colors! As always, have fun with fashion and your style. Mix it up, have a good time. Remember, you're doing it right when you make it work for you...

Currently: Being a Fashion Blogger

Coming to you late this evening but by God I am here! I am determined not to miss my personal goal to not only post daily to Insta during The Daily Tay's Instagram Challenge , but also to blog daily. It may be close but it ain't midnight! Anyhow, today's prompt is #Currently. As I was scrolling my Insta feed this morning, I found that my very favorite boutique Francescas's posted an #OOTD challenge . As luck would have it, or really not luck at all but rather a shopping problem, I was currently wearing a ring, a bracelet, necklace, dress, and earrings all from my beloved Franny's . All also from entirely different shopping adventures too. #accessoriesaddiction The challenge set forth from Franny's said to post a pic of you showing off your creativity in your Francescas's best. So I give you how I typically dress all day every day: I felt mildly goofy but also giddy. I love fashion and it wasn't all bad posing randomly and having my go...

Omg Shoes

I'm a shoe gal...said most women everywhere. I've always been a shoe lady and most likely will always follow suit on this passion. I've done the leg work on all kinds and types, have the blisters and scars, and lack of closet space to prove it. In no particular order of preference, I have experienced the love and joy of the following types of shoe: wedges, espadrilles, stiletto, high rise boots, bootie boots, ballets, peep toe, gladiator, oh my! And of course there was that unfortunate phase of kitten heeled. Le, sigh. We've all got demons. What I've learned in my years of connoisseurship for feet accessories, is that the quote in the above picture is beyond correct. Whenever I need to hustle in the utmost of style, I've got my go to foot ditties. When the time comes to hustle in style yet comfort, I know. When the time calls for who cares how I feel, how do I look?? ...I'm on it. But for every instance we can imagine, the truth is in the foot...

Getting dressed is my favorite time of any day

With another holiday season under my sparkly belt, I especially appreciate my previous year's usage of glitter and gaud... A whole new year brings all new opportunity for stylin' and profilin'. Hallelujah! Until we meet again, M

"Fancy was my name" -Reba McEntire

TGIF y'all! For realz. It has been an exhaustively good week. Work, work, working a lot and live, live, living as much in between. Let's do some favorites for a pre-weekend win and the fact that I made it here 3 times this week. Or was it last? Dammit, I knew I wasn't doing as good as I thought around these parts! Favorite fashion look: Love the new Juicy line for Kohl's . It is fab-fab-friendly! Favorite accessories moment: Favorite decor spotlight: Munterhegans are celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas strong early on. Favorite recent life event: going to see my kid sister march with her award winning high school band. Even if I did jump out of the car as the band was marching across the street to the football stadium with arms flailing. And I may or may not have started squeal-screaming her name, even though she isn't supposed to break formation. She didn't for the record, because she is good at what she does, but she did whisper to he...
