Blogger Award: The Versatile Blogger

I am so excited to say that I have received my first blogger award from Lyddiegal of Chic on the Cheap and Frances Joy of Mad Dress Game! I would have totally passed it on to them but, that seems a bit redundant... Thanks ladies!!


So now I have to share seven random facts about myself...
  1. I listen to pretty much every type of music but, anything with a ridic bassline is best. Naturally I lean towards copious amounts of techno and such.
  2. I graduated from high school when I was 16.
  3. I drink tea like it's going out of style! I keep a giant bag of my favorite in my desk at work.
  4. I played the piano consistently for 8 years. I can still play a tune but, not like I used to. Practice makes perfect.
  5. I'm just a big kid at heart. I love playing video games and have since forever. I was always (and still am) that girl! You know, the one who was deceptively girly but, could totally kick your butt in Mortal Kombat/Cruisin' USA/Mario Kart/etc. Bring it people! I also love watching cartoons, don't judge.
  6. I live within five miles of the apartments I grew up in, that's right all three of them. I hope one day to be a little further away, California perhaps?
  7. I met BF when I was 13... don't worry it's not lecherous we didn't start hanging out on the regular or dating until I was 18.
Now it's time to pass it on to some of my favorite bloggers. I am looking forward to learning a little more about all of you!
  1. A Pretty Penny
  2. alltumbledown: a modest attempt at style
  3. clothed much, a modest fashion blog
  4. Fashion for the Economically Challenged
  5. Money Smart Fashion
  6. Sidewalk Chic formerly Sidewalk Chalk
  7. The Joy of Fashion

October 29, 2010: A T-Shirt & Jeans


I would have loved to participate in this theme week Monday through Friday but, my dress code is business casual (as you know) and that would not have worked out so well. Though, I was happy to jump on the band wagon for Casual Friday. There is nothing more classic than jeans and a t-shirt! I even dug up an old graphic tee to incoporate some creepiness for Halloween! Who doesn't love zombies? "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains" - Pride and Predjudice and Zombies. If you haven't read the book you totally should it's hilarious! But, I digress... This was as festive as I got for Halloween, other than munching on some candy. What did you do? Did anyone dress up?
  • Top: black graphic tee, Threadless
  • Bottom: trouser jeans, GAP outlet
  • Shoes & Accessories: purple suede-ish ballet flats, Mossimo for Target; onyx earrings, V'ta; black spy bag, Fendi (not pictured)
