Night Light.

My economy size tub of glitter is lasting far too long. I have sprinkled yet another project- picture frames as wall art. I put these glittered frames above the lamp on my bedside table and they twinkle at night when I turn the light on. It's soup pretty.

If you're an avid PETA member, I'm sorry. Just remember- all Minxy's go to heaven. And my sweaters happen to look super cute with their fuzzy bottoms attached while they're there.

"Good, better, best. Never let it rest, til your good is better and your better's best." Just as my hair and clothes are ever evolving so should be the place where I post pictures of them. And while I've tried to make the best of what I have so far, it's time for an upgrade. If you've read my blog more than twice you've probably seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. Pictorially, hopefully not sartorially.
Well, the sight of my husband's lackluster photography needn't singe your eyeballs any longer. Babe- I love ya, and I'm thankful for your reluctant contribution to my hobby- but you gots to go. Enter- the multi talented, bona fide professional, uber proficient Jim of Jim Trice Photography. When Jim got in touch with me about possibly taking some photos for my blog, I was very enthusiastic at the prospect because I've seen parts of his portfolio and the amazing shots he produces. Priceless, truly. I'm kicking myself (and my husband) for not hiring him to take engagement pictures or better yet, our entire wedding. Hindsight is 20/15 (far more acute than 20/20). Better late than never, we got some shots this past week and amidst my nervousness, here's what we came up with:
you're I'm lucky, from here on out you will be seeing pictures of this caliber. Oh yea, did you notice I got a haircut??
Here's a teaser for tomorrows post:

Narrowing down options for my new white iPhone.
I ordered the last one because it's a no brainer, and I grabbed this one on Ebay,
I will probably invest in one of the pricier covers above (Dannijo!) and then use this genius idea I found on Pinterest to make my own:
These two are my front runners:
DANNIJO $95 |
Reminds me of a Circus:
PENCIL SHAVING STUDIO $39.99 |
HOLLA!:
BIG MOWTH DESIGN $45 |
It'd probably be hard to have a bad conversation on a multi colored chevron or houndstooth phone:
PENCIL SHAVING STUDIO $39.99 |
Ikat/ Pink Leopard print hybrid from a Jersey boy:
MARC JACOBS $39 |
BTW How cool are these SPEAKERS for iPhone/Ipod:
MEGAN ADAMS I love her prints. |
Gold Glitter $3.28 and free shipping!! |
because I've been waiting for cell phones to hold cards as well- and again, at less than $3 it's a no-brainer.
eBay $2.98 |
VIA |
You just buy a clear case (less than $1 on eBay) and then cut any print paper or fabric
in the shape of the cover and slide it inside. Possibilities are endless.

Going pantless has been a trend among pop princesses for a few years now.
And as usual the fad has trickled down into mainstream retailers, so that you and I can also enjoy the draft. At first I didn't care that this trend was growing in popularity because after I was born I vowed "God as my witness- I will never let my bottom go uncovered again!" But after seeing these bloody knickers I'm having a change of heart. And I'm thinking I'm going to test the waters with this pair:
I suppose I should actually be used to this look. When I would hang out with my bestie and her roommates in college at their apartment, we would "Depants" when we got back from class. "Depantsing" is an actual term that we use often, and includes but is not limited to- watching DVR'd episodes of Desperate Housewives in your underpants on a leather sofa while eating pierogies and painting your nails. So, while the event to which I plan to wear these items of sequined ridiculousness has yet to be determined- I know I'll still be able to get a Quarter Pounder at McDonald's on the way. Because the sign doesn't say I can't...
