I have Sinned

So I follow this amazin lady called Sal, over at Already Pretty.

Yep click that link to go read her. She always has posts that get the readers to comment and has this spunky little personaility that seems to just flow from her outfit posts to her posts about random things. So she recently posted an entry called " Fashion Confessionals", I loved the idea and remember reading her first one last year.

But over 70 comments on hers and as I got to reading around 30 something, I thought, how does she read all of it? But she reads each comment and mine would probally just blend in. So I thought I am going to just quickly tell her I loved her idea and I wanted to post one myself. If she minds I will delete it.

So here I am, admitting to..my dirty, dark...fashion faux paux or annoying little habits.

Hoping that I can get some comments on back about YOUR dirty lil ones too..

Okay

Here goes nothing...

1. I will sit in the mirror and nick pick all my lil flaws, and the lil scars that my hubby says no one can see and hate it. Then I will turn around and search for any teeny tiny lil black head or zit. I have to pick it. I use q-tips to be gentle sometimes, BUT I HAVE TO. I mean it is a horrible thing. I need help.=)

2. I have to use about 20 q-tips a day, I clean my ears spotless, my deep innie belly button and ready for it...my nose. I refuse to stick a finger up there and yet I hate the feeling of anything in there, so after each shower, each day...nose cleaning. I know number 2 and you are already grossed out.

3. I like my expensive shoes cheap and never have paid full price for any pair I have bought.

4. I have numerous pairs of high heels I can not walk in, not because I can't because in Europe cobblestone is everywhere, I cant wear those spikey heels, but do I still buy them?

Damn straight

5. I have to shave my pits everyday, or else I feel weird. Even if I do not shower, I need a quick sponge bath in that area and a shave with a quick application of Deodorant.

6. I always am worried about my smell, do I stink? Smell too nice?

Sigh.

7. I buy belts and scarfs because I love the look on other ladies, but I do not know how to wear them right or should say I feel I dont, so they sit there. useless.

8. I love to buy new beauty products, who needs 4 different types of cuticle cream?

Um, apparently me, right along with 5 different types of dry heel lotions and cream. I need to stop.

9. I hate to pluck my eyebrows, I have gotten them waxed for the last 5yrs and even let friends pluck them. If they get too bad, I hide behind my glasses and quit wearing contacts. I sneeze constantly while doing it and feel I over pluck. So would rrather be a bit out of control that too thin.

10. On that note, I love to be pampered and have girly things, waxes, pedicures, manicures etc..but hate taking the time to do it to myself. I get lazy and stop half way.=(

Well sadly I could go on, but I will leave this at 10 for now. I best be off to go and get ready for work. You lovely ladies have a good day..and if you read this, never read my blog before...COMMENT, tell me I am not the only one with problems. hehehe

Cut it up...Just Cut it UP!!

Only after all these transactions have gone through....soo I got a lil shopping crazy. I got some new shoes, then some shoes for my husbands, then some bags for me, with some clothes for my husband.



PHEW


I should be done



BUT I AM NOT!! I can not help but snag up a deal.



So I have shopped 6pm.com before, saw good deals...but also stayed with some other stores and sites. Well not this past weekend. I went CRAZY on that site. I mean when you find an Ed Hardy shirt for less than 20 bucks..you get it right?? Or Kenneth Cole Sunglasses for your main squeeze 80% off you have to get it. It is just that everything is that marked down. So I figured I spent my monthly shoe budget, plus got some stuff for my hubby and the lil bro and lil sis.I should be happy, I should STOP.










Then THESE came to me, I got an email. Went to the website and saw these. These boots were made for walking, Betsey Johnson, Chocolate Brown Suede, Zip up the back...love me now...boots








I mean they are only $380 bucks..what a deal right?






Oops. Not fair of me. That is the retail price..pick your chin up. YOU KNOW I would not pay that. but $74 bucks. Um yes siiiiiirrrrrr I will. Then the next thing you know, these shoes look dirt cheap next to the Betsey's.




Jessica Simpson, snake printed high heels, these girls have got to be the cheapest Jessica Simpson's I have purchased @ $18 bucks. I think. I would have to go look. Oh who cares, I would still get them.



I am pretty in love with bows and polka dots right now. So these Dollhouse, flat, slip ons fit the bill. Plus at $8 dollars. Um HELLLOOOO! How can I not get these.



Wow. How many times have I said hello, right and crazy in this entry? Ignore my low vocab this entry. My brain is fried due to ...something.=)

I realized I do not have any brown high heels..well I thought so at the time of clicking, oh online shopping is just too easy. CLICK. These are a pair of studded Chinese Laundry slide ons, at $13.00(80% off) they went right in my shopping bag.

These Naughty Monkey's were only $11.00 and they had 3 left in my size, what an emergency.=)

These cute lil beaded lovelies are Kenneth Cole Reactions for my lil sister, only $8 smackroo's.


I guess with tax season around the corner, I just went deal crazy. But in order for me to not get the boot from my hubby, I will just tell him that it is Feb and March's Budget. That should work....um perhaps?=)

If not, then I will throw his goodies at him, then just do the age old trick of women around the world, pull each item out slowly..and say " These? I have had these forever"

I think I will wear a few to our trip to Spain in April. Which I mentioned on my other blog, but not sure if I did here. WE ARE GOING TO SPAIN. Oh heaven. I am so stoked. Yep I said stoked. I also say "dude", "I dig it" " peachy keen" " cool beans" and any other lame saying you can throw in there.=)

I hope you lovely ladies, have a great week. I am going to be quite busy. The school is out, so our Teen Center is doing a camp. I am happy to be going snowboarding, skiing, ice skating, doing arts, crafts, sit down meals etc. I love my middle schoolers.=)

Lions, Tigers and BAGS..OH MY!

I think, I might have mentioned my love of bags right? Well I took a break from homework and um, well spent some money. Sssshh don't tell hubby.=) Wait a min I earn money, it shouldn't matter that I spend it all right?

I saw this Guess Hobo bag, I just had to have it. I have a yellow Nine West bag, but not this yellow and not a yellow hobo. Um..I need to have one of everything, well maybe not but you ladies understand right?right? Great, I thought so.=)

So I got it, annnnndd at less than $50 bucks when it normal is $118...heeeelllooo. Love it.

So I figured I was having such an awesome break from homework, that I would continue, who wouldn't.

I got a new laptop for school, a cute lil lime green one. I like lime green. Mu ipod is that color too. Anywwwhhooo. I had to get this rocker Steve Madden bag, it looks big enough for my laptop. So for only $22 bucks off of $110, well I can find another use for it. IF it does not fit my laptop.

Multi-use at it's best.

Okay best get back to school.

I'm so ADDTICTED

It is offical. I have a problem.

Now this is a problem I admit too, that I will never want to fix and I embrace it whole heartedly!

I am addticted to shoes.

Not just for myself,

For example

Hubby" You have been buying a lot of shoes lately"

Me" Um, really, I guess so"

Hubby " Maybe you should slack off a bit"

Me" Okay, I won't buy anymore for myself this week"

Hubby" What do you mean for yourself? You doing that word play again"?

Me"(giggle) No silly, I just mean I won't buy anymore for myself this week"

Hubby " hmmm, okay"

Well maybe that is not how it went down exactly...buuuut it is very close.

Oh and btw I do that, the word play, try to wiggle it in there to were I am agreeing but setting it up to were I can still get away with it. It's great.=)

So I wanted to show you the shoes I got for my husband on 6pm.com as well as a pair for my 13yr old brother. He needs new shoes constantly, he is growing like a weed. I am not sure if our savings account will be ready for our own child. These are pricey things to have. Children I mean.=)

Okay so I got him these.

Oh just so you know,he likes shoes, and um pants and just clothes, necklaces in gerneral. Okay..well maybe, I got him hooked. Let him realize there are a lot of stuff out there for men. You just have to search a bit harder than us ladies do sometimes. ::sigh:: I created a monster

So I realized he did not have a pair of blue or green sneaker/tennis shoes. So I haaad to fix that right?

These New Balances were only $38 bucks, and they have gone done in price.

Then these Adidas, remind me of jr.high, they were only $28 bucks.

Now these Dekline's were $17 when I bought them and now they are just under $14.

Bear in mind all these prices are roughly 75% less than retail or what they were. It pays to not have things right away, or to shop thrift or discount places. I refuse to pay full price for anything.

If you do not shop at 6pm.com..you GOTTA. JUST GO..now. CLICK ON THIS....good job.=)

Oh and in case you wondering, which I know you were. I got a 100% on that last assignment I was talking about. I guess me being able to talk a lot is helping me out in this Sociology class.

Talk to you soon,

Hugs

Been awhile since Ebay Called my Name

I guess with my busy schedule of school, work and the family. I have not had time for my beloved ebay. Aww I missed you lover. But I was sick on Friday and had a chance to do some browsing and put some bids. I did not win some really cute wellies, or rain boots. I need a pair or two. Steve Madden has some really bright and cheerful ones. I did, however, win two cute pairs of sole padders.

These patchwork, Steve Madden's, for 13.51..hahah like the 1 cent I got in there?

I use to have several pair of stylish boots from living in Alaska, when you want to not just be wearing some snow clompers but be cute. But after living in Texas for almost 5yrs, I got rid of them. I have plenty of sandals and open toes now.=) Never can have to many shoes right? Anyways I will go on..so I now live in Boot captial of the world. Europe. So got to be getting some more, these patchworks are shorter than the usual style here. But I dig them.

I work with teens, so sometimes I might be able to wear heels, but I need more cute flats. I bid on these cute Aldo Tweed flats. 10.50. Gotta love ebay. I like the print on them as well.

Well gotta get back to my sociology homework, anyone want to desribe the drug trade from the conflict theorist's view? No? No takers?..oh well...

Kimball

Chestnut colored, flat calf length boots? Why yes I think I shall.=)

These are my monthly Shoe Dazzle purchases, I am working on getting the pictures of other shoes I need to post. Stayed tuned

.

Where did the love go?

I will be getting this re-done, I have lots of shoe posts to do, I need to get my juices flowing again. The blogsphere is an amazing lil/big world. I long to get back into. Please stay tuned for that.

Hope your 2010 is off to a good start.
