Look of the Day: What it Feels like For Girl

My girly girl side comes out when:
-Someone puts on Madonna I have to run to the dance floor, as if something has taken over me and I sing at the tops of my lungs while vogue-ing it out.
-I wonder why Musicals ever went out of style.
-And then become thankful that they are back every Tuesday night
-I secretly heart the bad boy..aww Puck
-I shriek at the mere commercial for another Sex in the City Movie comes on..ahh the clothes!
-Then when I see a dress Carrie is wearing in the commercial I freak out (even tweet about it) because it looks like a dress I just wore!
-When the commercial ends and I get sad, and then I am reminded that I BAWLED through the whole entire Sex in the City movie last time.
-Why? Well you have a crier on your hands. Make sure to grab the remote or a box of tissues when one of those touchy-feely Chase Credit Card commercials come on...or any movie/tv show commercial that has explicit feelings in it
Any one else with me on any of those? And anyone else watch the Madonna Glee last night?

WOW, that was amazing, although it was like bug replant for my husband, he could not stay in the same room while they we dancing and sign away. I may have to bring it back to girly girl tomorrow in the outfit. Here was yesterday' outfit, not very girly and not very exciting either. I blame it on the rain, oh yes, it is back.

My bracelet is another recent Cost Plus World Market find, I told you I loved that place. I will be wearing this all spring and summer long.
I rocked my go to Abercrombie cardigan, H&M white button down, and JCrew feather pin and necklace. All old, clearly new clothes will be worn the weather is nicer!
The flowers on my desk have been kicking it since Easter! Rockstars!
See how I immediately revert back to a colorless outfits when the weather shifts?
oh.. only to wear a beautiful skirt like this...a very girly girl piece that could be yours :)

May I Suggest?

For as long I remember, my Mom has shopped at Cost Plus and Trader Joes. At that time, they were both be in the same shopping center and I have many of fond memories of tagging along to both stores with her. They were so fun and had so much cool stuff! I am still loyal to both stores and shop at both regularly. On a recent trip to Cost Plus, I picked up these awesome reusable travel coffee mugs (I only see solid colors online) and some fun funky rings.
If you are a coffee drinker I highly recommend getting reusable coffee mugs, and if you need more incentive check out this quote from www.carbonrally.com.
" a staggering 14.4 billion are bought in disposable paper cups. Placed end-to-end, these cups would wrap around Earth 55 times and weigh around 900 million pounds......Unlike newspaper and cardboard boxes, disposable paper cups are not recyclable. The thin lining that makes a paper cup waterproof also keeps it from being recycled. "

"By using your own coffee cup, you will reduce your CO2 emissions by a total of 1.25 lbs this week."

For more information check out the Carbonrally.com website here.

Now if that isn't incentive enough, maybe these adorable mugs will sway you. Alright (Wendy), sorry to get all Hippie on you, but aren't they cute?
