Firstly I want to give Target a high five. The cashier today was a special needs individual, and I was so happy to see that. They were really nice and I talked to them for a few minutes. That's the joys of America. You know why we lack in education? It's because we are one of a very select few in the world that educate ALL children. We make sure it doesn't matter what is going on, whether it's money or health, etc, your child gets the education they need.
Fashion advice for the day: Yesterday, I wore a knee length grey chiffon dress, with black sweater leggings, black ankle boots and a black leather jacket. Wearing the black leggings with black boots elongates my legs, and this technique works with anyone. If you match your tights to your shoes you will give your body the illusion of more height. All of you know I'm 5'3" so more height is greatly appreciated, even though it's just an illusion! The leather jacket balanced out the girliness of the chiffon to give a chic touch. I wanted the focus to be on the outfit as a whole, so I kept my accessories simple, with small black white and silver owl earrings, and 2 silver rings on my left hand. My hair was in a simple base of the neck ponytail and my makeup was very understated. You never want to have conflicting or competing looks going on. Everything should compliment one another.
My disappointment was Maybeline express finish nail polish in "Pretty in Purple". The color is absolutely beautiful but it chips really quickly, and that is after two coats, plus a top coat (and allowing proper time for all layers to dry).
Right now I'm currently working on a ton of Christmas presents. I'm crocheting most of them, as I just can't spend the money I want to on everyone. This depresses me, but I'm making due with my talents and resources. I thought about baking cookies, but everyone likes something different so that would be rather hard. I do have budget friendly ideas though! Walmart has these great little gift sets for $5 that include soap, lotion and either lipgloss or a scrubbie in some very good smelling flavors. We girls love to smell good, so this is something you can get for the ladies in your life! For guys, Kohl's has these adorable gifts: boxers and matching collectable tin. I saw Batman, Superman, Tobasco, Mountain Dew and a few others. They are on sale for $8.40 and it's getting 2 gifts for one! Some of the boxers come with a drink coozy. Those are always handy and something guys actually use too!
Good luck and if there is something you want me to try or write about, send me a comment!
