  • OOOO! I like the striped Forever 21 top in your blog.  It looks like it's good quality, too.
  • steph, I HIGHLY recommend that top. I was seriously stunned at the quality. The gold buttons on the shoulder make me feel like a Michael Jackson-ish, but it really is a great buy!

  • We have a company-wide meeting today but my role is one of the few who do not attend so my peers and I took a 1.5 hr lunch.  Now for some interwebz time and eventually a few work related tasks.

  • lucky, I forgot to tell you this. (I keep forgetting you don't all tweet!) Target fail on Sunday. That morning I skipped off to my local store with a dance in my step. I walk inside, my eyes darting toward the clothes department expecting to see a huge display and signage. 

    NOTHING.

    Not ONE piece.

    When I asked customer service they had NO idea what I was talking, and I phrased it three different ways.

    So I had to go home, order the dress I wanted in two sizes online and pay $7 in shipping.

    Seriously?!  Did they have the designer lines when they originally set?  And I'm surprised you had to pay for shipping.  Usually if you spend more than $50 it is free.  I'm annoyed for you.

    I saw someone post on another board that their store only had half the styles and they were disappointed too.  Maybe they're rolling it all out slowly?

    Mames--what size do you think I should get in that top?  I wear smalls mostly, but I'm worried F21 runs small or is meant for actual 21 year olds.

  • lucky, I know! I was also surprised the collection wasn't apart of the bullseye shipping. 

    steph, I took a medium, and well, you've seen how well endowed up top I am. You'd probably be good in a small.

  • Bwha, I'd never knock the King of Pop (may he RIP). 

    I should totally rock the new ON outfit you got a preview of soon. My poor blog will be thrown into an identity crisis.

    What is pinterest?  I followed the link and it took me to a bunch of polyvore compilations.

  • steph, Pinterest is like a digital bulletin board. You can pin most any image from the Internet to put on a 'board" (fashion, decor, cooking, prints, photography, etc). You can repin others pins and browse people's boards from the site. It's the modern day equivalent of cutting out pretty pics from magazines. I use it for inspiration bookmarking. 

    You can see the kinds of things I use it for: http://pinterest.com/mamie329/

  • I haven't been around much.  It's been so wet and rainy around here that I haven't really done anything at all.  Too wet for garden clean out and too wet for any major indoor projects and too dreary for spring cleaning.  I feel like I've just been a big lump.  I will be so happy when spring arrives!  Since this is the worst of my troubles I feel pretty lucky, just whining!

    I love the skinny jeans/striped top outfit in your blog Mames! You look adorable!

    You're so sweet, darby! I have no business wearing skinny jeans, and I'm pretty sure I gained 10 lbs this past month, but hearing that I don't look horrendous just brightened my day!  I hope the weather perks up so you can perk up soon. :)

    Thanks!  I know I have no business whining, but it helps sometimes.  I just really need to get motivated, as I have a ton of stuff to get done.  I'm baking tonight, so that will help lift my spirits.
