Outfit of the Day
It’s red ribbon week and we were supposed to wear a red shirt with jeans today. Unfortunately, school was closed, but I didn’t let that stop me! Here I am with my red shirt! I love it. It’s a red striped peplum wrap shirt from Loft. Bonus, it’s on sale and 40% off with the code FRIENDS right now!! I’ll find another excuse to wear it soon!! I also got this cute Kendra Scott necklace on sale, too! I already had the earrings to match, which are not shown in the picture.
TEXAS/ou game
Texas lost, but I made a really cute shirt for the game! It was fun getting to go to the Fair and watch all the TEXAS fans and all the cute UT clothes everyone was wearing! 
Boot season, Tory, and Ebates!
I declared that it was boot season way back in September. I think since that day, I’ve worn boots every day. I went to work one day and found that my heel had a crack in them, so I, sadly, HAD to go buy some new boots. I don’t like to spend a lot of money on clothes because I like a LOT of clothes. I always bargain shop! I went to DSW and found some very similar to the ones I had. They’re Unisa, so they are really comfortable. They also have a pretty wide leg, which is great since I have big legs!
I am also in LOVE with Tory Burch. I got this Tory Burch purse and some Tory Burch earrings for Christmas. (You can’t see the earrings in the picture, but they are SUPER cute. I’ll have to remember to take a picture of them some day.) We got a really good deal on them because we got them online through Ebates and Nordstrom.
If you haven’t heard of Ebates, you need to sign up NOW. It will change your online shopping habits forever. All you have to do is sign up. You’ll get a free gift card right away just for signing up. Then ANY time you want to buy online, just go to Ebates first, find out if the store you want to buy from has an agreement with them, click on the store, then shop normally. Ebates tracks the sale and then you get some money back!!! So for my Tory Burch purse and earrings, I get back $21.60 because Nordstroms was doing 6% back. Nordstroms has free shipping, so it was cheaper than buying in the store!! YEA me!! Another good deal!
Lazy Lucky Saturday!
I didn’t have much to do this weekend. I love having nothing to do, until it comes down to the fact that I have nothing to do. When that happens, my standard “go to” is to go shopping. As usual, I hit up all the Marshall’s in the Austin area. This was my lucky day!! I found a pair of brown riding boots that actually fit on my legs!! I found a pair the other day, but they were $150, and I’m cheap. I found these for $50. Since I got such a good deal, I decided I would just buy another fun pair for the winter!! Here are most of my new clothes. I was actually lucky and bought a few other things that are not in the pictures, too. 🙂
Riding boots are my favorite!! I just can’t usually find andy to fit my legs!! 😦 These are Unisa and fit!!
These were just fun boots, so I got them. They are Steve Madden boots.
I love to shop!
As you may have noticed, I’m a little obsessed with sundresses. Today, I was headed to the grocery store when I decided to stop in to Ross For Less instead. I usually don’t go there because I never find anything, but today I got lucky! I found 3 sundresses, a cute halter top and a cute trunk for my office. Just yesterday a friend and I were talking about how I needed something to put all my costumes for work in rather than have to bring them home. I lucked out when I walked in and found the perfect trunk for only $50!! I never even made it to the grocery store!
This will be cute for almost anything! (Except work! lol!)
This is my second maxi dress. I have to get up the nerve to wear it out though! I still haven’t worn the first one!
I’ve gotten to the point that I prefer wearing dresses to shorts on a hot day!
This is really colorful and I don’t usually do this much color, but it looks cute with a tan!
I took this straight to my office and put all my wigs, hats, and other costume items in it. It makes my office look so much better!!!
I love sundresses!!
Last summer all I wanted was tube top style dresses. This year, I’ve been wanting a one shoulder dress. I hadn’t been able to find any that I liked until I went to Marshall’s yesterday and this one was sitting in the Juniors department waiting for me. I’m not a junior, but luckily I can still wear some of the clothes. I wasn’t really sure where I was going to find shoes to match them, but when I left Marshalls, I stopped in to TJ Maxx and found these perfect flip flops to go with the dress. It was like they knew I needed them!! 
Shopping blog
I haven’t done a shopping blog lately. It’s not that I haven’t shopped, because believe me, that never ends with me. I’ve been on my death bed for the last couple days, so since I could stay awake for more than 2 hours straight, I decided it was time to pamper myself a little bit. I went to two Marshall’s and found lots of cute stuff. Since it’s summer, I need lots of cute sundresses and I was in need of a swim suit since Cooper decided that the one I bought for this summer would taste really good and eat it. I also bought some shoes and flip flops, but they’re kind of boring, so I won’t share those in this blog.
This little garden gnome was just funny, so I went ahead and bought him. I think I’ll name him Josh after my favorite player.
Creating My Own Polyvore Type Picture
It’s official. We are finally going to take the plunge and get new floors in our family room. We’ve been fighting the smell of dogs since we first built this house, so I’m hoping hardwood floors will help us get rid of some of those odors. We’ve decided to go with bamboo floors because they are supposedly very durable. I hope they are right about that! This afternoon, I went by Floor & Decor one last time to make sure I like the color that we have chosen. I think it’s going to work.
Since I was already in the area, I decided to go to my favorite store, MARSHALLS!!! While I was there, I bought two sundresses, a shirt and a pair of sandals. I’ve always wanted a white sundress to wear with cowboy boots. I have no idea if it even looks good on me, but I don’t really care because it’s a look I’ve always liked. I can’t wait to have a reason to wear this cute outfit.
I was about to put my new clothes away, when I got distracted and got on Pinterest. While I was looking on there, I got the great idea to create my own Polyvore type picture with my own clothes. I wish I had something to do a better backdrop, but the carpet really didn’t work. It was kind of fun putting it all together! I wish I had a fancy camera to take professional looking photos. I really love taking pictures! 🙂
Best Running Shorts Ever
I absolutely love the Nike running shorts. I love how they have that flap of material on the side that helps hide my “problem area”. The only thing I don’t like about them is the price. I’ve found them costing anywhere from $20 – $30. I don’t usually like to spend that much money for shorts that I only wear to run, but I usually do anyway. Well, I was really excited when I was at Marshall’s and found them for $14.99!!! If they would have had more, I would have bought them all. This may mean a trip to all the Marshall’s in the area to find some more!!
