Something to Blog About…

It’s Saturday night, but it feels like Friday to me. It was my first Saturday where I had to work from 10-7pm, YUCK! My internal clock is all thrown off. I don’t have anything specific to talk about just a bunch of randomness. Some of the bloggers I follow have a 5 things Friday and since this feels like a Friday to me, here are 5 things I want to blog about.


1. My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding
Oh my gosh you have to watch this show. It comes on TLC and you will just be fascinated by these people. You will have to decide if it is a good fascinate or a bad fascinate, I’m a little of both. There was nothing on the TV at the gym tonight so I stumbled and got sucked into the black hole of crazy reality documentary type shows. You know the types that you don’t want to watch but you can’t look away? For example, Toddlers & Tiaras. I’m not sure if it is just a few episodes or will be an on going show. So My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding is about the traveling gypsy community in the UK and the elaborate and ostentatious to say the least, weddings that they have. My only response I had to the show was, REALLY? I HAD NO IDEA! These girls getting married are like 16, it’s common for the modern gypsy community for girls to get married really young. CRAZY!


2. To buy or not to buy. I bought this hat at Target and then returned it because I just wasn’t so sure about it. Than I see one of the stylish ladies I follow on my blogs wearing it. It looks good on her, should I buy it again?

3. Jake Gyllenhaal. It’s no secret for those who know me that I have a crush on this man. Especially a bearded Jake. My boyfriend is well aware of this fact and let me know when he saw Jake on Man vs. Wild the other night. I found the episode replaying and recorded it for my viewing pleasure. Bear Grylls has also had Will Ferral on his show to brave the wild. Apparently he is really scared of heights, ate worms for breakfast and gut a dead sheep they wander across. Here is a little clip of what I have in store for later.


4. Fashion Blog Finds: I’m always updating the blogs I follow. Deleting the ones that have lost my interest or have gone a different way with their style that I don’t necessarily agree with. And then my favorite part of updating is adding new blogs I come across. The way I rate if I will follow a fashion blog is the level I’m able to copy the outfits. If all the clothes come from boutiques or designer labels than I will not follow. But if I see labels I know of and more real life outfits I will follow the blog for sure. Then you come across those few special blogs of ladies that have your same sense of style and shop at the same stores you do and even better, they OWN the same clothes as you! There is nothing better to have someone else style something you already own. Check out this new blog I’m following: Saucy Glossie.hey i own that dress idea for black shorts and maybe olive tee idea for peasent skirt and knot button up


5. The No. 2 Pencil skirt from J.Crew. I have been searching and searching for summery color pencil skirts for months now. Mainly purple or red. I have finally found them! But why do they have to be $120 at J.Crew??? So close yet so far away! Back to where I started looking for a more inexpensive version of these two lovely skirts.
