Do any other bloggers feel this way?

I get giggly happy when another blogger responds to my comments. Does anyone else (reader or blogger) feel this way? At that moment, even for a short while, I have this tiny connection with someone else out there. It feels good to have a connection and to meet people. It's a source of great motivation. And surprisingly in this short amount of time, I have met quite a few amazing women. 

Thank you blog-osphere!

On with today's program... I believe it's colder in my home than it is outside so with the temp no longer hovering around the 30's, I attempted another skirt. This time my high-low skirt I purchased from the outlets for only $10! This was quite a while ago so I don't believe it's currently for sale still (sorry ladies!). 

Another item I snagged for a good deal? My necklace from H&M was only $3.00! Yes a whopping $3.00. Oh, another thing I get giggly happy about is when I find what I'm coveting for a serious deal. =)

Have you gals snagged any good deals lately?

Oh, also I just joined StyleElixir's Link-up so definitely check out all the wonderful bloggers who joined!

What I'm Coveting

I have a bad habit...I'm always coveting something. It's almost like my closet is never ending of things I want to fill it with. It wouldn't be that big of a deal unless you have a small closet! In which I do...sigh. So I virtually covet things, I search and pull images of pieces I love and I thank the blog-osphere that I can share them with someone right at that moment. 

What am I currently coveting? Sequin skirts! Dress them up or down - it can give you the extra "pow" in your outfit. In my previous posts, I was coveting sequin sweaters and sequin clutches, maybe I have a thing for sequins at the moment?? I wonder how long this love affair will last...

Do you gals have a sequin piece you're coveting or own that you absolutely love? Let me know to join me in this affair! I thought the pieces below were worth sharing!

Oh, by the way, Forever 21 has a sale on top of their sale items - extra 50% off all sale items with code: EXTRA50. Woot!

Spruce up your Monday!

Rather than being a Debbie Downer because it's a Monday, I'm sprucing things up today with hot pink and cheetah. Woke up to a shocking 36 degrees so bear with me if you can feel me shivering in the pictures. After this quick photoshoot, I decided to throw on a pair of black leggings. Unfortunately I was on a dash so didn't get a chance to take the picture with leggings. boo.

What do you guys think? Would you wear this outfit with or without leggings?

Ugh! Tried a new way to take pictures and it didn't work!

Paint the town red...

Yesterday was an extremely windy day where I buried myself in scarves (yes two scarves) and a coat and I was still cold! =/ Okay maybe I'm over exaggerating because I realize I'm complaining about the 50 deg temp here where there are blizzards in other parts of the world!

The sun was out this morning and barely any wind. It was a nice start for a Fri Fri Friday!

Tonight I'm headed out to a networking event with my friend but isn't it sort of ironic to go to a networking event with a friend? Well, she asked me to accompany her so I guess I'm going to paint Downtown red! J/k...

Also, I've just met some lovely bloggers through a super fun link up! Check out the link up through The Tiny Heart's blog here: http://thetinyheart.blogspot.com/2013/01/look-what-i-got-link-up-knit-scarf.html

SATC & Sequins

Y'all know when I'm talking about! Sequin handbags and clutches. I fell in love when I first laid eyes on Carrie's purple sequin Fendi handbag. LOVE at first sight. That was more than 6 years ago.

Today I'm still wanting one but never got around to getting one or maybe I just haven't found one that has been comparable maybe? 

I must get one! I'll more than likely pick up the one in gold below. What do you gals think? I mean about Carrie's Fendi one or even the ones below?

Oh, btw, I grab all of these from Polyvore. Super fun site for shopping and putting any outfit ideas together. Try the site out!

Skulls & Sweaters

Trying to keep it warm today (been a dreary day). 

I truly believe fashion is always recycled and renewed. For example, I was watching a foreign tv show and saw one of the characters wearing a skull scarf. I thought, interesting, never seen a skull scarf. That was 2.5 years ago. 

Fast forward today? The skull scarf is so in! How did the stylist know? Well, maybe it was started in that way... who knows but luckily it did!

Current obsession...

My current obsession? Sequin sweaters! I can't explain it. When I become obsessed with looking for something, I become obsessed!

The thing is, I haven't been able to find it. I've seen some on blogs, some on models, some on tv. But I can't find one that I want. Help!

Do you guys have a current obsession you guys can't let go of now? Here are some runner ups but still none have capture my attention...
