All I think about...

Some days, It seems that all I think about are clothes. Sadly, I should be thinking of Brody and how I can help my lovely husband, but I don't I dream about fabrics, high heels and rhinestoned accessories. Sad I know.

So, to the request of some workmates (Elizabeth) I decided to post the newest thing I covet.

It is a bit out of my newlymarried, non profit working budget, but a girl can dream, right?

Meanwhile, I am accepting donations to Kristin's poor fund.



Have no fears (mother, who I'm sure doesn't read my blog. If a girl's mother doesn't read her blog then seriously who does? anyway) I fully intend on wearing this cute dress with a cardigan and any other modest-making layers. I also saw this on the model at Anthropologie and it looked long enough! I would love to wear it with the cute cardi and belt also shown.

On a happier note, I am way excited for Valentine's Day. Two years ago Brody and I met on this fateful day, so I am all geared up to celebrate. I would post my surprises because I'm so dang excited but I fear that Brody may on the off chance decide to read my blog and find out (im almost 100% positive he won't bc let's face it, my husband doesn't read my blog either)

What are you doing for your husbands or significant others? I could use details and pictures. I sometimes live vicariously through my friends' romantic husbands and boyfriends.

The Results

I know you have all been waiting anxiously to see which style of rain boots I chose... Well I went to Target last night all prepared to drive Brody crazy while I tried on all the different galoshes (there were 24 options on Target's website) When we arrived I felt kind of childish. I shouldn't have been that excited to pick out boots. I finally find the aisle of boots and to my disappointment there are only 2 different kinds of galoshes (not to mention one of the styles only had a size 10 left, unacceptable!) Lucky for me the one style available was cute and purple (my favorite) So thank you to my coworkers and my reader, jessie :), for the advice, but these were my only option. I do love them though! yay for rain boots!


I know I look pigeon toed!

A Dream Come True!

So I've been fighting an internal battle for quite sometime. You may wonder what could this battle be. (it may seem insignificant, but to me this is serious business) I keep you from the suspense and just tell you... I have frequently resisted the urge to purchase a shiny new pair of rubber galoshes. The day that they started making the new trendy galoshes was a happy one for me. I have a strong love of boots so for me this was too exciting! Saying all this, I am amazed that I managed to keep myself from purchasing a pair. For once my practical side showed up and I decided that a pair of rubber rain boots were just unnecessary when I lived in a state where it never rains (If I was still living in PA this would be a different story). Still on the random days that it has rained in Utah I have regretted my rationale that told me not to purchase boots. So with all this being said you can imagine my joy when my mother-in-law called the other day saying that galoshes were a must have for our trip to the Oregon coast for Thanksgiving. Oh I am definitely giving thanks! I can finally purchase (with no regrets) a fine pair of rubber boots (what girl doesn't need a pair of those in her closet?) I was delighted to see that Target offered gazillions of choices. Now which ones to choose...any suggestions? I will be going tonight to make my celebrated purchase
I enjoyed the sailor theme
Didn't know if the plaid would be overwhelming.
