Happy Birthday!!

This post is all for my awesome bro-in-law!!! It's his big 30th birthday!! Happy Birthday, Brian you're really starting to become an adult. Brian is the best bro-in-law I could have ever asked for. He's basically like my brother (which I'm glad he's not or that would be weird) since he and my sister started dating while I was in high school. He was there to see me come in after my curfew, get busted by my parents, etc etc. Maybe sometimes to egg it on just a bit...Just joking, Brian (if you even read this) I love that you and Hubby are so similar and even better are friends. You're hilarious and I love that we like the same music and have since I met you. You're awesome and I hope you have a great 30th bday! I wish we were there to celebrate with you.

I stole this pic from Brian's sisters facebook...

Oops!

Well, I totally forgot about St Patrick's Day! I guess you all know that I'm not Irish now. I use to love celebrating and wearing green. However once I started working, staying out late on weeknights didn't sound quite as appealing. I do think that next year I want to have a party with green decorations and green beer. The question is in what city will we be living for this green party?!?! Here are some great fun pics from other peoples decorations...

Blog mistake...all the pics were deleted overnight!!! Sorry!!

September Issue

No, no I'm not confused on the months. I know it's April. Just joking, March. Anyway, Hubby and I actually watched the Anna Wintour (aka Vogue) documentary movie, September Issue the other night. We didn't find anything that tickled our fancy while scrolling through OnDemand until I saw Sept Issue. Of course, I was intrigued since I was an Apparel Merchandising and Product Design major but was apprehensive to suggest it to Hubby since he being in Finance probably wouldn't like it. However, one of the many reasons I love the man is his openness to my interests and fascinations. He's constantly asking questions about the Buying world and retail related topics. Also, he loves documentaries. And since the September Issue is a documentary he was also intrigued! It was an interesting movie. At times it made me miss working in a retail corporate office - I used to love the fast pace life style, things were constantly changing or having to be re-worked, all the racks of clothes in my office/outside and many other fun things. However, there were also lots of times that I realized how great it is to be out of the corporate world and on my own time schedule and still doing what I love! Anna Wintour is most definitely an interesting woman.

Sorry if this was rambling on and on - I was watching LOST while writing this...

The World is Pink

Well, I personally have not been into pink since I was a little girl. Since I have blonde hair and am short I sometimes feel a bit cutesy and little when I put on pink. (I love pinks on other people though.) However, I can say that I am getting over this issue and have actually gotten on board with this Springs bright pink tones and peaches. Who knows maybe I'm growing up. :) So since it's a hot color SMD has a few pink and peach pieces in the Spring collection! What are your thoughts about these colors?

Lovely peach
