BigGyrl Fab Outfit 04/13/08 and Death to the Washing Machine...

Monday, April 14, 2008

My Sunday Best!:
Top-It's Fashion
Shoes-I can't remember but my Momma said she had a pair like that too and she couldn't remember where she bought either.
Skirt-Issac Mizrahi for Target via The Hillcrest Goodwill Store
Belt- Simply Fashions
Headband- an old scarf off a dress my Momma gave away
Earrings-Tiffany( for real.)
Bangles- you know!....This N' That!

Don't look happy? It was beautiful day and a beautiful service even though Boo and Spoo acted like they had never been out in public. I think they plan to show out before we go to church. Kids.

Everything was going fabulous, Momma cooked, we ate, no TV for the kids because "acted" up ... then my brand new washing machine....

Messed up my clothes. Seems that after I washed a load of white clothes with Ecover Bleach, there was bleach residue still in the machine that messed up ( Lord help me!!) 80% of my spring and summer clothes from last year. I mean my favorite grey dress from Target and the shirt that I just wore in the picture above! Boo came over to this pile and said "Your clothes messed up." Thanks Pumpkin.

I'm sad.

Reclaimed...

Saturday, April 12, 2008

I made it a personal challenge this week to reclaimed my love for Victoria's Secret Blosssoming Romance.

Why?

Well, when I and "Fashion Boy" first started to kick it, I wore it so much. He loved it. So I wore it. Ya'll know how that go. And then we were over( like three times) and I stopped wearing it. It reminded me of the time wasted with that well-dressed psycho. Then a co-worker of mine had it on and decided to reclaim it as one of "my" favorite scents.

I've wore it THREE days in a row. How is that for "reclaim":)

Goodies from the "Sal" 2

This "little" haul happened Monday at the Sal. I been giving this one in Union a chance and have been coming up on the come up. No clothes though. I don't that kind of patience in there sometimes....

Vintage handbags. I carried the black one to work and my "Muse" was like "Work it Diva!"( I have to tell you about the "Muse" later. I must be granted permission.:))
Wooden bowls( for my jewelry), vintage lamp and cups and saucers.

Books for Me and the midgets.

Hand knitted afghan. I washed it good and dried it with a Downy Simple Pleasures Lavender and Vanilla Dryer Sheet. Kel has been laying under it since.:)

Goody, Goody... from Big Lots

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Hey ya'll! I scooped these Goody Stay Put Headbands from Big Lots for 1.00 a pack. Cool and Cute. Don't ever sleep on Big Lots. That's where I get my Honest Teas, Pasta, and the boys Pop Tarts', cereal and school snacks. And my bedroom set.:)

BigGyrl Fab Outfit: 04/07/08 and Super Rave: Carol's Daughter Browning Oil

Monday, April 07, 2008

I was off today from Le Lion. Super duper bored out of my mind because everyone else is at work or school!

Top:It's Fashion( That's my big girl fashion mecca for empty pockets...hell, they got a layaway plan! lol!)
Jeans:Uhmmm...TJMaxx Clearance last year
Jewelry-This N' That Spartanburg
Shoes: It's Fashion( knock off Tory Burch flats that were $3. I got my Momma a pair too!)

I honestly think that this whole outfit was less than $20...put together.




This should be in your summer arsenal coming up. Remember when I was going through hell with Sephora and their Out of Stock Crap. Well, this wasn't out of stock. And I just might put it out of stock!!! Carol's Daughter Gelee de Soleil Browning Oil is absolutely the joint and the jam!!

Now, don't get it twisted, its not one of those after "bath gel oils" where you put it on wet and then dry off. No, you put it on dry skin and your skin glistens for hours, trust. I put it on Sunday because I didn't want to wear hose to church( never do...) but I wanted my legs to look cute. It did the job. Then it smells so tropical and dreamy!!! I paired it yesterday with a sample of Missoni and today I'm wearing it with Rich Hippie Bliss and no scent is fighting the other.

Ah....
