30 to THIRTY...

Back after a long weekend.. never pretty!  lol 

Time to recap the past couple days of the countdown and what has happened!!

Day 28 to THIRTY...

Watched Cindy Crawford on Oprah's Master Class show, which I am obsessed with.  She made a comment that in her forty's she discovered her life's passion was communicating.  So I took a sip of wine and I thought what would be current life's passion be.  Took another sip.  And I discovered my life's passion is being happy.  I do nothing in life that makes me miserable, I take pleasure out of doing things that make me smile, whether shopping, traveling or lots and lots of laughter.  Always try to see the glass half full, I am an eternal optimist.  I enjoy making others happy mostly because it brings me joy.  I wonder if my passion will change as I get older?  I hope not cause I think being happy and doing anything to make myself happy is a good passion in life to have.  So thanks Cindy Crawford and Oprah!.lol


Day 27 to THIRTY....

Found the shoes I will wear to my girlfriends wedding.  You chuckle and say why is this important, but I saved $500+ bones!!!  Check this out!


 
This is the $500+ Jimmy Choo                   and                       this is the $130 Franco Sarto

Who doesn't love getting a great deal!  I know I will get soooo much wear out of these.  Its a classic shoe!!!!  YEAH!  Cannot wait!!

and finally Day 26 to THIRTY,

Was spent with family celebrating the Easter long weekend.  And nothing beats a great meal and family!

What will this week of countdown's bring me?!?!

30 to THIRTY!...

In honor of day 27 on route to Thirty, I thought I would showcase my sister who will be 27 in a few short weeks!!!


Now we don't always see eye to eye, we don't have the exact same fashion sense.  We butt heads over a majority of things lol yet we do share some similar passions in life.  She thinks I am party nuts and I think the same for her..lol  But with all that said, she is my sister and I love her OODLES!!!  Life would be far less entertaining without her in it.  We have grown to be come friends not just sisters.; And as we continitue to become the best women we can be, I am glad I have her by my side.

Happy Early 27th Birthday Kirstie! 

and for some Throwback Thursday... 1987!

Today is day 28 on route to 30.. but you might question why I have the # 74 in the picture... welll...

drumroll...

I PURCHASED MY FIRST HOUSE!!

Yes last night my offer was accepted on my very first house!  I am still in shock, and of course am running around tying up loose ends but I wanted to share this amazing life milestone with EVERYONE!
One of my goals in life was to have a house by the time I was 30, and well by-golly I did it!  So as of closing in May I will be the proud owner of house number 74!
I look forward to sharing lots of pictures and updates in the time to come.
But as of day 28 all I am saying is 74!

Happy Early 30th Bday gift to me!

Finds...

Happy Monday!!

Sometimes there is nothing simpler than a white shoe.  White high heels are EVERYWHERE this Spring but a white sneaker is also popping up.  Then again, it never really went anywhere.   A simplistic shoe makes an outfit pop!  Keep an eye out for a white sneaker to add to your closet!

Just Because...

This was sent to me via Facebook the other day and just had to share with all of you!
Enjoy your day!

Gripe...

I am griping two days in a row.  Cause I can..lol

Today is the first day of Spring, you would never know it with the weather.  However, this is the time we all start buying warm weather clothes, like shorts!

Which brings me to this suspender/harness short combo! And yes, they are sold together! lol
GRIPE! ugh.
I should profess I did do a post on the {thigh harness} which I love, but this is not even remotely close to that!  This looks like 50 shades of grey bondage!  Not made for the street, or at least not made for the average lady on streets.... now perhaps a corner would be another story ;) lol

I don't have much else to say.. just a shaking of the head.

Happy hump-day, first day of Spring, and GRIPE day!!!  lol
