HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE!


 This is my 2010-2011 New Years outfit! 
Dress - Kenneth Cole
Cardigan - J.Crew
Shoes - J.Crew
Tights- J.Crew

Hopefully the finished product looks good!

Leatherette lace-up ballet flats




I love these flats.    The corset style lacing up the top gives it an extra bit of flair. Plus, not only are these flats aesthetically good looking, but they have built in cushion to provide maximum comfort. 
Personally, I have held out on purchasing flats because I hadn't found a pair with the right balance of dressy yet casual, feminine, and classy with nothing over the top (Rhinestones on shoes are not for me). These shoes provide exactly what I had been looking for. They get my recommendation :) 


**NOTE** Get a half size smaller than you usually wear, these shoes run a little big! I usually wear a size 8 - 8.5 depending on the shoe, these I needed in a 7.5 :)

Boyle over Yeezy!?

Come on world. Really? I mean... REALLY.....!?
I was on the Rolling Stone website today and I stumbled (more like crashed) onto this headline:

Susan Boyle Knocks Kanye Out of Top Spot

Now, I am not being biased when I say that Kanye West is the best artist of all time. Ok, ok, perhaps not.  But, he is one of the best artists/producers/rappers that is out right now. Susan Boyle sings well and got pretty lucky. We all love a nice happy ending for a (yes I'm going to say it) frumpy old woman. So I guess in some weird universe it is nice that she is having her 15 minutes.

However, what is not nice in any universe is that Taylor Swift has the number 2 spot. Ughhh. blahhh. gaggggg. I could create an entire blog post of onomatopoeias to describe how I feel about the girl but I refuse to discuss her any more than I already have.

I am losing faith music world......

Thank you?

Now, I appreciate that VDOT (Virginia Department of Transportation) wants to provide me with valuable information while on my commute to work. However, this:
Leaves a little too much to be desired...

Just sayin VDOT ;)
