Since you've last heard from me, my husband and I have moved to Colorado, are currently living on post in a beautiful three bedroom house (photos to come), and are facing VERY soon deployment. In all of our joy with moving, and LOVING Colorado, we were faced with a hard reality of why we are here. He will deploying May 26th for a 1 year tour in Afghanistan. We were given less then 2 months notice. Trying to finish setting up house, and spend as much quality time together as possible. It's bittersweet because know my heart will be aching, but he is doing something I am so proud of, his selflessness is a reason I married him. **But tonight victory over Osama Bin Laden will *hopefully* put an end to some of this war. We shall see.<br /><br />Anyway, Nice to be back with y'all! I have a few posts in mind coming up real soon! And I am currently trying to figure out why all of my photos disappeared??? Any ideas? I still have them saved and can go ahead and re-upload them, but that would just be a nightmare!

When I originally heard the word "banquet" I assumed the usual semi-formal attire and went out and bought an adorable cream/gold knee-length sheath. It is beautiful, classic, just screams Officer's wife. Well..... After M finally spoke to the woman in charge of the banquet he found out it was actually a black-tie event. The way she described it was "long dresses". HUH??? I was absolutely mind boggled as what to wear. Finally, M saw a banquet going on and saw what the ladies were wearing. THAT gave me a mental picture and so I with the help of M I found a perfect dress!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV2YYIv08InVdElW29MdeBkIGymFD_oLdSGiEv2-f42Qo6lPXJ7yjZFqIXrxfaqCPb07bH52UDVC_3Opq3MyKjDtzLhJPgcCPOjw3JNJC6o6BL-Pqi2Q1JIpl4ysBAQS33Mgm7CDzG5v7A/s1600/PromGirl-656657538.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578250263750305410" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV2YYIv08InVdElW29MdeBkIGymFD_oLdSGiEv2-f42Qo6lPXJ7yjZFqIXrxfaqCPb07bH52UDVC_3Opq3MyKjDtzLhJPgcCPOjw3JNJC6o6BL-Pqi2Q1JIpl4ysBAQS33Mgm7CDzG5v7A/s400/PromGirl-656657538.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1Pvv-QZVgMyjILVzPb0uquIxYQfVjXdelio7FlNUEh6k7UKf1cNAtsvIcm3H5aKIvkvLgMAEJgjIjYGsRhtJlmcWjpAn6rBGqFh1bZUGa5CZ637Ti8xyKv2O7r9MbQeOzoLR-q6SYNGKI/s1600/gown1.bmp"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 204px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578250264819525586" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1Pvv-QZVgMyjILVzPb0uquIxYQfVjXdelio7FlNUEh6k7UKf1cNAtsvIcm3H5aKIvkvLgMAEJgjIjYGsRhtJlmcWjpAn6rBGqFh1bZUGa5CZ637Ti8xyKv2O7r9MbQeOzoLR-q6SYNGKI/s400/gown1.bmp" /></a><br /><div> </div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifiPBCx6YwzIPV-4_Ql8185eYMx-IBCmMUtTDHT3Nl_-SYcAY_rQnXG0njLkhL_aRr0lqRBTtPttCgAkBvnF3Q1xtvhzl27wKE9Dn4whyO3tChV9-HN_PRI1IDVQKIU05jXyhFhq7-0UJx/s1600/dave_and_johnny_6669_full.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578250260204691090" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifiPBCx6YwzIPV-4_Ql8185eYMx-IBCmMUtTDHT3Nl_-SYcAY_rQnXG0njLkhL_aRr0lqRBTtPttCgAkBvnF3Q1xtvhzl27wKE9Dn4whyO3tChV9-HN_PRI1IDVQKIU05jXyhFhq7-0UJx/s400/dave_and_johnny_6669_full.jpg" /></a> The dress is beautiful!

I THINK I'm going to pair it with a vintage 50's pearl and sequence clutch and nude pumps.

It can tell so much about a person! There is nothing worse then having some one walking by you and getting a waft of cheap alcoholic-smelling perfume, or even WORSE, like a teenager who just walked out of Bath & Body Works with the entire signature collection. Don't get my wrong, I own two B&BW body splashes, but there is a time and a place, such as after the gym, or at the beach, for a quick pick-me-up. Without further chatter, here is what is currently sitting on my vanity:<br /></div><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 250px; height: 250px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602052218400770594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4KjTZCi5gPpl7CdxoIl0P3sxyQTn3oa_vL8jyVETE78DqtQ-fu3kfn9uRhcSV0UYdppVh3YK7fm4Bk84odn0sgh3rppHS6Eml75Bm-te63bLhZjlOP1mtfrMOCjjB-qy0smRqnLj6_uVO/s400/t_25074.jpg" />My husband smelled this, instantly thought of me and surprised me with a bottle.

Where it's just flurrying, snowing, or hailing ice balls, the skies have opened up in a state of fury. I love snow days- they seem to bring about unexpected family time. My brothers have off from school and my step-mother (who is a principal) also had her school close for the day. Rarely do people get all dolled up for a snow day, and I am the same. I found some photos of what I was wearing today and thought it would be fun to see what people wear when they are snowed in! So today, as I type this, this is what I am wearing:<br /><br /></span></div><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TUHvzI4-jcI/AAAAAAAAA3o/457ERm1asrc/s1600/77024491-01.jpg"><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 328px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566994276245474754" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TUHvzI4-jcI/AAAAAAAAA3o/457ERm1asrc/s400/77024491-01.jpg" /> </span><p align="center"></a><span style="font-size:130%;">A comfy cotton shirt.

CLONES?<div align="center">Allow me to give you some important details about my trip to MO to visit M on the Army base.... Before leaving NY I decided to lighten and highlight my hair (which when teased (daily, of course) is a little shorter then shoulder length)... it looks marvelous! But anywho, upon going for my manicure as usual, I opted for short acrylic nails (french tips with little pink flowers). I figured that fake nails would stay looking nicer longer. I had no idea what to expect, safe route it was. Rather then spend the week or 2 prior using gradual tanning lotions, the spray tan was quick and effective. In the airport I picked up a tube of Nars Turkish Delight lip gloss. I wanted to see what all the fuss about. I'm not a gloss girl, but I love this! Shortly after arriving in STL where M and I spent a wonderful weekend, M asked me if I had brought 'comfy' clothes... Um, no? If by comfy you mean lace dresses and flowy blouses then yes. He took me straight to a local store and had me pick up 2 pairs of comfy cotton yoga pants. Why you ask? M explains that no one here dresses up and that I would maybe be doing outdoorsy things. (Not in this cold!) Our romantic weekend was over, we had a long drive to the base. Once we arrived, M and I went to the Commissary for a little grocery shopping and the PX for some items. It was a cold, flurry day outside, no better day to throw on those comfy pants, a cute top, and uh oh... I didn't bring any shoes other then ballet flats and heels. I had nothing to wear with the yoga pants! M told me to suck it up and put on flats, and he would buy me some sneakers when we got there... SNEAKERS?!?!? GASP! I don't wear those! He insisted and I walked out wearing cute white and pink tennis shoes. Before leaving the PX M wanted to check one store real quick, an embroidery store that does all the work on his uniform. Okay, no problem. I walk in and immediately saw that they do custom work! Well, needless to say I walked out of there with a cute new fitted T-shirt and sweatshirt that both adorned "Proud Army Wife" in big pink letters. So tonight, I am sitting here in my comfy yoga pants and Army Wife t-shirt with matching pink sneakers. Fake nails on, hair highlighted to perfection, and lips beautifully glossed in the pink/peach shade.<br /><br />WHY IS ALL THIS INFORMATION SO IMPORTANT???? With all the fun and new people I am meeting, these things are so minuscule! Well, I tell you this, Army wives must be their own breed of human. Standing around the PX, I took a good look around and..... WE ALL LOOKED EXACTLY THE SAME. Maybe it's just this area, and maybe my mind is going crazy, but even M took notice that there were clones amongst us!<br /><br />So, on this particular trip, what have I found makes up about 95% of the Army wives, girlfriends, and fiancees I've seen? Exactly the things mentioned above:<br /><br /><strong>Short hair with unnatural looking highlights</strong><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfleq95PfI/AAAAAAAAA1k/GN7jQwG3Mio/s1600/Rachel-Stevens-Bob-Haircut-1.jpg"></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564168179732266482" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfleq95PfI/AAAAAAAAA1k/GN7jQwG3Mio/s400/Rachel-Stevens-Bob-Haircut-1.jpg" /></a><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 287px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564168176039363266" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfledNcAsI/AAAAAAAAA1c/dl_J5LZ6s6c/s400/medium-bob-2010.jpg" /> <p align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">The hair was looking poofy, teased, and perfectly in place<br /></span><br /><strong>Fake acrylic nails</strong><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfleMA7jcI/AAAAAAAAA1U/BOkvF-NirNQ/s1600/tumblr_kslxjbkIBK1qa619h.jpg"></p><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564168171423501762" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfleMA7jcI/AAAAAAAAA1U/BOkvF-NirNQ/s400/tumblr_kslxjbkIBK1qa619h.jpg" /></a> <span style="font-size:85%;">Some were plain french tips, but most were french tips with a design<br /><br /></span><strong>Dark glowing fake tans</strong><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfld77CXqI/AAAAAAAAA1M/meuaKkrnbzI/s1600/spray-tan-1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 265px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564168167103815330" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TTfld77CXqI/AAAAAAAAA1M/meuaKkrnbzI/s400/spray-tan-1.jpg" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"> No umpa lumpas here.

I'll be flying from NYC to St. Louis and he is driving from his base to meet me at the airport. As I started my usual traveling checklist I wondered if everyone is as crazy about their luggage as I am.<br /><br /><br /><br />After all, my clothing and other items are precious cargo. I hang my clothing on special hangers, hand wash almost everything except PJ's, and take me dresses off immediately after coming home. Needless to say, the thought of my clothes being tossed around like a football with all other luggage gives me anxiety! Oh and heaven forbid it gets lost! When you shop at boutiques and vintage stores it is hard to replace items. Some are even completely irreplaceable.<br /><br /><br /><br />Traveling smart is all about THE LUGGAGE. I recently purchased the Traveler's Choice Freedom II- 3 piece luggage in Dusty Rose.<br /><br /><br /><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TSwEFs62B0I/AAAAAAAAA0c/fD_57DIQq2k/s1600/1118509910_XL.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560824135899547458" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TSwEFs62B0I/AAAAAAAAA0c/fD_57DIQq2k/s400/1118509910_XL.jpg" /></a><br /><br />It has a hard outer casing. Perfect for protecting what's inside. Also, it has 4 wheels so you can be pulled, pushed, and turned 360 inside is a compartment for shoes, undergarments, and toiletrees.<br /><br />So, how do I pack my precious cargo? The most important items- lace dresses, expensive bag s, or favorite shoes go in my rollig carry-on. There is no chance of me checking my irreplaceable items. It includes outfits for special occasions and date nights.<br /><br />As my second carry-on I carry a large tote. Inside I keep my make-up, wallet, toothbrush, camera, e-reader, ipod, cell phone/charger, jewelry, agenda, and also my TRAVELO! This item is a godsent! If y'all are traveler's and haven't gotten yourself a travelo y'all are missing out! Now my favorite perfumes (Chloe, Miss Dior Cherie, and Coco Mademieselle) can come with me on the plane. I don't have to worry about the bottes breaking in cargo or being confiscated in security.<br /><br />And in my large checked luggage is all the other not-so-important items. PJ's, socks, under garments, extra shoes, 2 pairs of jeans, some knit sweaters. Not that my satin PJ's aren't important, but any Macy's or Nordstroms has a pair for purchase!<br /><br />So ladies, it's all in the luggage!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098860785962434294.post-86871790231825511532010-12-27T20:21:00.001-08:002010-12-27T20:58:37.033-08:00Christmas presents... to MYSELF!While out doing my Christmas shopping, I gave myself a few little presents.

But once in a while I just like to get up early in the morning and with coffee in hand stroll through the tables hoping to find a gem. Flea markets can be a great place to find antiques or unique items difficult to shop for in stores. This past Saturday, Momma and I felt like it was a flea market kinda morning. So we woke up, throw on our coats scarves (and gloves) and grabbed our coffee to head out to the local market. I found some great finds!<br /></div><p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TOHPs1yqZXI/AAAAAAAAAvI/3D6zi_LdttY/s1600/P1030311.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px;

This perfume couldn't be any more perfect for me. It's feminine, classy, sophisticated, and ME! Oh I just die for this!

THANKSGIVING! I find that Thanksgiving is one of the few holidays where causality is acceptable. Within reason, of course. Here are two polyvore creations imitating what yours truly will be donning while I stuff my face.<br /><br /><div align="center">Cozy Casual</div><p align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TNNTNtjYKZI/AAAAAAAAAsg/SC_SoKxp-3Y/s1600/Casual+Thanksgivining.bmp"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 288px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535859861999856018" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TNNTNtjYKZI/AAAAAAAAAsg/SC_SoKxp-3Y/s400/Casual+Thanksgivining.bmp" /></a>As I previously stated, casual is okay for this holiday. Some families even prefer it! Skinny jeans (or jeggins for their STRETCH!) with a knit sweater and boots is a lovely outfit. We want to be comfortable in our clothes after we eat and also warm while we watch those rowdy boys play football. A nude lip is perfect and keeps from getting lipstick on all the utensils and smearing while we eat, while a fall themed nail polish shade is trendy and sophisticated.<br /></p><p align="center">Casual Chic<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TNNTNWRkqMI/AAAAAAAAAsY/FZxeWZ5fMX8/s1600/Thankgiving.bmp"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 343px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535859855751162050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TxLDHK9Z8ok/TNNTNWRkqMI/AAAAAAAAAsY/FZxeWZ5fMX8/s400/Thankgiving.bmp" /></a></p><p>Now this outfit is a bit more polished, but still comfortable. A button up collared shirt under a sweater dress plays up the outfit. Black tights for warmth and flat shoes again for comfort. Throw in a pop of color such as a bag or scarf and you are looking cute, sophisticated, and classy. </p><p> </p><p><span style="font-size:85%;">**As in all of my polyvore creations, the style of clothing is simply an imitation of something I would wear.

While strolling through the streets of NY, I came across a little Chinese mom-and-pop store and stumbled upon the most perfect nail paints! Very often, while shopping, I ask myself "Is this me?

Too much is tacky and sloppy but too little is plain and boring. When I see a woman not wearing jewelry I assume she was in a rush and forgot to put it on (Shameful!)....

Until then, Google images it is.<br /><br />My husband leaves in about two weeks. He will be gone FIVE long months. He has been helping me around the apartment with little fix-it pojects. We have also repainted and redecorated. The previous tenants had the walls painted yellow and puke green. I decided to paint it all one color- A Benjamin Moore paint called Romance.<br /><br />It took some convincing with Hubby, but the color is an off white with a rosey/pink undertone.

Even so, she was indeed a classic beauty. </div></div></div></div></div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098860785962434294.post-32321513549590156742010-10-03T23:22:00.000-07:002010-10-04T00:17:12.678-07:00Fall Must Haves<div align="center">Fall, or as I like to call it, Autumn, is one of my favorite seasons!

Let me indulge myself for a moment in my 'excuses'. If you follow me in twitter you already know my computer broke right before leaving for vacation. I DID take daily outfits, however my husband's computer is not compatible with my camera. (His comp. is ancient, but with his "If it ain't broke..." mentality, he refuses to buy a new one) Also, hubby leaves in 3.5 weeks for Officer/MP training for FIVE MONTHS. We have been spending time together and running errands, and setting things up for when he is gone.<br /><br />I am so sorry y'all, truly. When M does leave it will free up time, and also give me an outlet to write, so expect posts regularly in the coming weeks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098860785962434294.post-77720112300315154952010-09-18T23:10:00.000-07:002010-09-18T23:18:09.536-07:00Late VacationHi y'all! Tomorrow myself, as well at M and my mother are flying down to Florida! St. Augustine to be exact. My grandparents live in the area, and it's about time for a visit and vacation. I will be blogging from Florida, I'm hoping. See, when I go away, I refuse to bring any technology other then my cell phone. I don't like anything distracting me from quality time with my husband, family, or friends. It's actually quite a refreshing experience.<br /><br />However, since we are staying with my grandparents, I can only assume they will <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">be in</span> bed EARLY. Which will leave a little lounging time in the evening for blogging. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">I'm</span> going to try something new, and do daily <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">outfit</span> posts. I think it will be fun to do, but keep the blogging short and sweet to get back to that quality family time. My first post will be Monday! Happy blogging y'all!<br /><br />P.S. The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">puppygirls</span> are staying with my aunt and two teenage cousins. They are in EXCELLENT hands, but we dropped them off this afternoon and I miss them already!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0
