Hello there! Whew, this work week is almost done, and I'm so excited! I work until 1:30 p.m. tomorrow, and I don't think anyone will really be doing any work tomorrow. I can't believe Christmas is so close now! I can't wait for it. I've done everything I needed to do before it, like shopping, wrapping, and Christmas cards.
Tonight I'm not doing too much, just working out, and tomorrow night I'll be meeting a friend for a drink.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my first Micheline Pitt piece. Her brand is called Vixen.
I adore this really cute makeup and hair product print, and the colors in it. I love how much pink there is in it! I can't have enough pink. The skirt fits true to her size chart, but there's no extra room in it beyond the maximum waist measurement shown on the chart, so the skirt fits me snugly, but not uncomfortably. The skirt material is a good thickness, and is pretty poofy on its own (I don't own a petticoat). I want to try a couple Vixen tops out next. There's one with three quarter sleeves and a collar, and one with short puff sleeves that I'd like to try out.

Hello there! I don't have plans for today, other than the usual tasks I do on Saturdays, and Bob's working. Tomorrow Bob and I are supposed to see "Joy" at the movies. I don't like going to the movies, I'd much rather watch movies at home, but unfortunately, "Joy" isn't available on demand yet. Bob doesn't like going to the movies either. Another reason I don't like this time of year, is that it's too cold and gross to go on day trips on the weekend. Once March comes, we'll start going places on the weekend again, like New Hope and NYC. We haven't been to NYC since June, and I really want to go back, to go to Enz's (a store), Otto's Shrunken Head (tiki bar), and the Bagel Store (which sells rainbow bagels! We've never been there before). We still go to Bethlehem in the winter, since we don't have to walk around there. We just park right by the restaurant and the one shop that I love.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my Folter brand junk food dress that I got from Modcloth about two and a half years ago. I remember debating ordering it for months, because even though I adored the print, I didn't know if I'd feel comfortable wearing something so "loud". Ha! How times have changed...because obviously now I'm very comfortable wearing "loud" outfits. Even though I still dislike the stares I get. I got this cropped Heart of Haute sweater from Retro Glam, during one of their great sales. I already had two red cropped cardigans, but they are more of a dark, dull red. This bright shade is great to match with a lot of my outfits.

Hello there! I'm so glad this work week is almost done! I am ready for the weekend. It's rough going back to full five day work weeks, after previously having two four day work weeks in a row! Tomorrow night after work I'm meeting my good friend for a drink. Other than that, I don't have really have plans yet for this weekend.
The dress I'm wearing in the picture below I received from Retro Glam this week. It's Trashy Diva brand. I hadn't been on the hunt for it before I bought it (it's been out of production for awhile now). But, once Retro Glam posted that they were having a great sale, I went on the site and looked at a few brands, including TD. Even though this dress is on the "dressier" side, and I won't be wearing it too often, to me it was worth it, because it's simply gorgeous!! I love the halter style, with the beads around the bust and on the straps, blue the color is so pretty. It's a softer blue than I'd normally wear. I'm definitely wearing it at Viva Las Vegas! The dress is super tight on my chest, and just zips. But, I love it so much, that I'm thinking of also getting it in the new wine color on TD's website. I don't want to spend full price for it though, so I'm going to wait a bit at least. I received another "dressier" dress this week from TD, that I also won't be able to wear it too often. But, before the purchase of these two dresses, I didn't really have any "fancy" dresses. I got the other dress for a steal, too! I've been doing really well with holiday/after holiday sales lately!

Hello there! I'm just getting ready to head out the door to go to Bethlehem, PA with Bob. It's supposed to be 70 degrees there today!! Ah, it just doesn't get better than 7o in December!
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new Pin Up Girl Clothing Heidi dress. I ordered it from Retro Glam during their Black Friday sale. I had been considering getting this dress for over a year. It was sold out in my size for a long time on the PUG site, and when Black Friday came around, I remembered to check Retro Glam. I got it for a steal: $55, including shipping (from Canada)! I have the PUG Harley dress in this same shade of blue, and I am just in love with this blue. It's so bright and vivid, and pairs so well with pops of bright orange. Since the outfit screams bright, I also paired it with my Betsey Johnson gumball machine purse. I have owned a Heidi once before, but ended up selling it. I think it's safe to say I won't be selling this one!
