OOTD – April 29

Cardigan: Joe Fresh (Christmas present this year. Anyone try Joe’s jeans yet?)
Tank: Abercrombie (from 2007?)
Pants: GAP (last summer)
Shoes: Browns Store (from 2008)

Think they need a bitta polish? :/

I thought this outfit that I’m wearing today, deserved its own post. I folded up my laundry one day and noticed the green cardigan and the tank top underneath were next to each other on the pile and they matched. I paired it together and of course now that it’s warming up, I feel comfortable wearing my white pantaloons. So there you have it. A simple yet (I think) pulled together outfit for work. Voila.

Remember, my contest closes on Saturday!

Rosebud earrings!

Showing some more of love for Etsy. I ordered these adorable and affordable rosebud earrings off Etsy! The seller has so many colors to choose from. I had dntessier99 marked in my favorites for a few months and I decided to just go ahead and purchase them because I was in need of some retail therapy.

I knew what size they would be, as the photo she took of them are on a keyboard. They arrived in such nice packing so the clay earrings wouldn’t break. Look what they came in — I already had one earring (which was wrapped in tissue paper) already in my ear at that point. I couldn’t wait. lol. However, once they were IN my ears I thought they’d be about half the size of what they are. Still adorable though and they arrived pretty quickly from the states.

Here they are, finally in my ears. Beauts, no?

Check out her etsy shop, and she even has a Facebook page for it!

Cooped up

Last night I made it to the gym, even though I desperately wanted to go home. But I wanted to finish strong on going to the gym 4x/week in April. I didn’t feel tired after working out of course, so when I got home I stayed up and obviously ate ‘supper‘ (which I’m so not going to tell  you what I ate. hehe) and hung out with the pup.

I ended up going to bed at 9:00 with the poor puppy only being out of his cage for 3 hours last night. Mind you, he was up at 4 til 4:30 (A.M.) with us, and then again when I got back home from the drive to Toronto airport, and then again at lunch for a half hour. But I needed my sleep and I still felt guilty for keeping him cooped up in the crate. Needless to say, he was excited this morning. I should take another video of him and post it on here. I’ve never seen a dog act so happy before to see his cage. He literally bounces off four of his legs at the same time and flies high into the air when he sees his crate come out of our bedroom and into the living room for the day. He also loves his bed time. Crazyness huh? I guess it’s great to keep him on that sort of schedule where he goes to bed between 9 and 10 every night lol. When he knows it’s dark outside and I take the crate back from the living room to the bedroom he cries really loud and wags his tail and bounces. I pick him up and as soon as we turn the corner into the bedroom where he can spot his crate, he wants to jump out of my arms and he flies into his bed. Where he then whimpers and sulks for a good 10 minutes until he settles.

Is that not weird? lol At least keeping him on a schedule like that isn’t making me lose my hair and think about hair loss prevention!
