Oh How Pinteresting

Oh happy Wednesday...
Its such a dreary, rainy day today! I'd be content sitting on my couch with my new book and television but my CEO is coming for a visit at work so I've gotta be on the top of my game today.
Until then...

Pinspired Style

After linking up for Pinspired Style last week I got so many awesome comments and compliments. It was a nice boost to my self esteem. I've been scouring Pinterest for some ideas for the link up this past week. There were 2 outfits that inspired me.

Sadly the original pin comes from a blog that has been deleted. Bummer, I'd love to see other outfits she had put together. I love this outfit and although I had all of these pieces I wouldn't have thought to put them together for a fun fall outfit.


Pardon the face. This was taken at 8pm after a 11 hour work day. I really need a tripod for the morning. I don't want to subject you to the tired look each week.I didn't accesororize as nicely as the original pin. To be honest I wore a fantastic bracelet that cut into my hand at the office all day so I took it off before the day was half over.
Details:
Peach skinnies- Target
Belt and shoes- NY and Co
White top- Target
Open caridgan- TJ Maxx

Linking up with the girls.

Pinspired Style

My dear friend Stephanie recently created Pinspired Style, a weekly link up where you take an outfit you found on Pinterest and try to recreate it. I am not the best fashion blogger this world has to offer. I usually leave the house in the morning loving my outfits but hating the way I look in pictures. I have a slight shopping addiction so its about time I showed some of my favorite purchases off. It's time to spread my wings and take some chances!

Since joining, Pinterest has significantly enhanced my creativity in my fashion choices. I have been a little more adventurous with color combinations. One of the best compliments I received was when a coworker told me I was wearing an outfit she would pin on Pinterest! Awesome!


So here is one of my favorite pinned outfits.

 I love this outfit for many reasons! Its fun and its out of my comfort zone! Here is my version:


Yep, I know I know I'm no where near a fashion photog but cut me some slack I'll get better as the weeks go by. Or at least  hope so!

How has pinterest influenced your life, fashion, diy, design???

Sunday Social

Sunday Social



1. What is the first website you log on to each day?  Usually Blogger, Twitter and Facebook.  It was Google today. My poor feet are feeling the affects of wearing sandals for months. They hurt so much I googled some home remedies to make them feel a bit better. 

2. Give us some funny websites you visit that we need to know about.  My guilty pleasure is PerpetualKid Really funny site for entertaining your inner child. 

3. Pinterest or Facebook? Why?  I enjoy both. Pinterest goes for my inner creativity and Facebook for my inner drama queen. I am a bit over Facebook. People are either bitching about their lives, boosting about how perfect everything is. 

4. Twitter or Instagram? Why?  I'm a lover of both. Most of the time I feel closer with my Twitter friends than I do with some of my "real life" friends. 

5. Favorite YouTube video. I have 2 favorites. One involves some one getting hurt. I know, I'm an asshole! Don't judge! I bet you laugh too. 





6. Biggest online pet peeve? I think the spam weight loss pins thats have been popping up all over Pinterest lately. 

By the way; have you entered our swap yet?!?!
Only 6 more days left till sign ups end.

Oh How Pinteresting...

Happy Wednesday Friends...

I have been so overwhelmed and stressed this past week. I barely posted this week. I feel the stress of the wedding, work and family has hit its boiling point. I actually had some one ask why their boyfriend wasn't invited to the rehearsal and than got slack from my mom. Is it terrible if I want something small and relaxing 2 days before my wedding? Forty people is not my idea of a relaxing good time! Thoughts??? Plus my junior bridesmaid's dress does not fit, AT ALL. So angry. I picked our bridesmaid dress because I really didn't want her to look different than the rest of the girls and this was the most appropriate. Now they have to rework it. The seamstress is on vacation next week, so it wont be done until the Tuesday before the wedding. I found all this out this morning as my mom stopped by work to tell me. Thanks mom, not the best news at 7:30. Plus I took Brian's keys today on accident and now he has no way to get to work!
Ok vent session over...

I'm in need of some good old Pinterest happiness!
