Happy Paddy's Day.....and OOTD from the weekend

Cead Mile Failte!
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!  The day when the whole world thinks they are Irish!  
The news is already showing people out at the Irish pubs in the city drinking and it is 6am!!  Yikes!
I'll be spending the entire day working....so no festivities for me.
Here is an OOTD from my iPhone archives.  I wore this to dinner with my husband last Friday night.  The sweater is very light green.....The first shot is my half-a** attempt at trying to show the new way I've been wearing my hair.  I'm trying to grow out some short layers so wearing my hair straight is not really an option right now.  I've been curling it with a 1.5 inch curling iron away from my face and this has been the result.  I'm a fan especially since it lasts for several days...I hate washing and drying my hair!  (Please ignore my crazy red eyes....)

Jeans:  Gap Real Straight

Shoes:  Nine West gray Snake skin

Sweater:  Green merino v-neck via Nordstrom Rack

Necklace:  Ann Taylor circa 2008

All this stuff is old and I'm too lazy to find inspired by links to post....the stuff is so basic!

Resolutions: One Month Check in....

So 31 one days down, 31 days without buying a SINGLE piece of clothing.  

I did spend my January accessories budget on 1 scarf at TJMaxx for 9.99, a diamante cuff bracelet for my upcoming Vegas trip (12.99), and 3 pairs of tights.

But, I stuck to my guns and I have not bought a single piece of clothing or a single pair of shoes!  I'm very happy about this.  The first two weeks were kind of hard, I spend a good amount of my free time online "web window shopping".  However, over the past few weeks I've started to fill this time with other activities, specifically reading different historical websites.  I've also begun to do some creative writing again which is an excellent outlet for any stress I might be having.

The JCrew new arrivals have tested my will power.  I really want this dress!!!  Like in the worst way!  I keep going back and looking at it, and thinking of all of the belts, sandals, necklaces, cuffs, and scarves that I already own that will fantastic with it!  And I think the price is pretty reasonable.  But, I'm holding out!

I'm would like the navy color.  Has anyone tried this dress?  I'm curious about how it fits.......

Don't forget to enter my giveaway for a $35.00 CSNStores.com gift card.  It runs through this Friday!
