Outfit of the Day (Thursday!)

I love the idea behind today's outfit.  I love all the lighter colors especially since it was supposed to be a hot, sunny day, well it started out that way! Today's weather was ridiculous- I got tan this morning when I had my breakfast out of the deck this morning and around 4pm at work, this insane storm came into town and it was pretty intense since it was knocking out power left and right in the area.  I really enjoyed this outfit today-I was pretty comfortable all day and got a ton of compliments on my pink top, even though it was way too big! I've lost about 15lbs since I got this top at the end of April so I guess I can't argue with too large clothes hah! I feel like all my clothes are getting too big on me now but I am 100% ok with that!!! 

• Pencil Skirt- jcp
• Top- LOFT
• Cardigan- Target
• Pearl Earrings- Honora set from my sis for bday
• Pearl necklace- Hawaii 2012 trip to Oahu
• Watch- Rolex
• Bangles- Malani Jewelers
• Rings- VT Class Ring & David Yurman Petite Wheaton Ring in Black Onyx
• Shoes- Nine West via DSW

I love these multicolored pearls! White, pink, grey!

My sweet Rusty enjoying laying out in the sun this morning!

How do you react to crazy, insane, thunderstorms?? They freak Rusty & I out so bad! 

My Love for Tom Haverford

Today, I want to share my love for that silly little brown man we all know and love as Tom Haverford.  I remember when I first watched Parks & Recreation when it first came on because I had/have such a major girl crush on Amy Poehler from SNL & I knew I had to watch this new show. Well, I've also been re-watching Parks& Rec from the beginning on Netflix to get my summer fix too haha.

Little did I know that after watching for the past what, 4 or 5 years, that ridiculous Tom Haverford would be so hilariously cute. OK, ok, I know this is so silly becuase he is a fictional character and I have yet to watch the Aziz Ansari comedy specials I have on my Netflix queue but seriously. Tom Haverford sometimes speaks the things I think in my mind. Don't get me wrong, he is plenty ridiculous but hilarious moreso in the later seasons!

"When I'm dating someone, I have a list called my 'Oh No Nos.' If a woman commits a Oh No No, it can end the relationship.  Not loving '90s R&B music is #3 on the Oh No Nos list.  Girl don't even know who Ginuwine is."

Seriously, not loving 90s R&B really is #3 (ok maybe #2?) on my Oh-No-No list. I've been listening to the 90s R&B station on Pandora for YEARS and when I saw the episode where Ann had no idea who Ginuwine (Donna's cousin) was, I was equally disgusted and shocked as Tom. SRSLY. Differences, Pony, etc, how do you NOT know who Ginuwine is?? BTW, has he come out with any new music since then????

ALSO- who doesn't need a treat-yo-self day every now and then?? I love his and Donna's friendship- so weird but makes so much sense at the same time. 

ANYways, hope you enjoyed this little bit of silliness this morning! Oh and check this out whenever you need your Tom fix this summer: https://twitter.com/HaverfordQuotes

 

 

 

Playlist Wednesday!

Here are the songs I'm into this week for all my runs:

• I Love It (feat. Charli XCX)- Icona Pop
• OK so you probs know this song from that GD annoying commercial on tv (I don't even remember what it was for even) but it's so catchy when I run! It just makes me want to let loose and just run without holding back and have fun in life! 
• Drinking from the Bottle (feat. Tinie Tempah)- Calvin Harris
• This one is super catchy! I had a block of Calvin Harris play straight on my iPod during my 5K this past Saturday and I fell in love.  I really love this song for running and just life in general. Listen to it, love it.
• Young, Wild & Free (feat. Bruno Mars)- Snoop Dog & Wiz Khalifa
• I'm not sure if I've featured this song on here before but it's so ridiculous.  This song is promoting a lot of things I don't approve of (other than the alcohol because let's be honest, I highly support alcohol consumption in a legal and responsible manner) but I still enjoy it's catchiness!
• Heart of the City (Ain't No Love)- Jay-Z
• Love this song.  I am pretty sure it's a re-make of an older song but it just gives me a feel-good feeling haha! Not super descriptive but definitely check out the link and tell me what you think! I love this song! AND I love JayZ, who doesn't??
• So Bad- Eminem
• I love this Eminem song! I keep hearing it on my Usher Pandora station and all week I've been obsessed with it to the point of rapping along hahaha! I mean, you don't listen to Eminem for clean lyrics or PC words/phrases but I love him and I love this song! Listen to it, love it!!

What are you listening to this week??

• Watch: Rolex
• Rings: VT Class Ring & David Yurman Petite Wheaton Ring in Black Onyx

This day was ridiculously tiring, draining, &exhausting day.  I had to take my sweet MBP into Apple to get the 9 key back on and have the trackpad replaced so I dropped it before work and picked it up after work and before I picked up my sweet Rusty.  Look how tired he is after a fun day at daycare!! He is snoring on the floor right now, refusing to cuddle but that's ok, I'll get him later :)

What do you do to relax after an exhausing/draining day??
(I'm about to go for a run and then a HOT shower & wine in bed)

 

A Relaxing Morning..

Who doesn't love a relaxing morning? Started off with a nice walk with Rusty and now breakfast and blogging on my deck with Rusty in my lap! 

Always so curious! 

I love mornings like this!

View from the back of my deck!

Have a great day everyone!
