Thoughts & Red Carpet Wish List


Ahhh, Friday.  Its been an extra long week coming off of two straight 3-day work weeks.  I am ready for the weekend.

  • HELP!  Does anyone know where I can purchase a pair of these earrings without the beads?  They used to sell all kinds of them at Copper Penny.  I can't find them anywhere online...
KEP Coral & Gold Filigree Disc Drop Earrings

  • I scored the deal of the century yesterday at Forever 21.  Let me disclaimer that I do not like to spend a lot on boots.  My three year old Charlotte Russe pair have finally bitten the dust.  I found these online but didn't want to pay shipping so I made a quick stop to the store on King Street and got THE LAST PAIR...IN MY SIZE...for $12.99.  It was fate.  They are still available online, AND F21 is offering an additional 50% off with the promo code EXTRA50.  I mean, $6.99 for boots???!!!  Oh and just a tip, they run small.  I normally wear an 8 but had to get a 9.  

  • This weather is going to be fabulous for our painting this weekend.  I can't wait to open all of the windows and the door to the screened porch.  Not sure if mother nature thinks we are in May already but I will take it!

  • Speaking of painting, we are using this color scheme.  It is by Valspar from Lowes and we are painting over the original Comet Dust with Notre Dame (living room, kitchen, foyer, stairwell, and upstairs hallway) and painting over the original Notre Dame with Granite Dust (dining room).  So far it looks great!  Before and after pictures to come.  



The Golden Globes are on Sunday and I cannot think of a better way to reward our weekend of painting then plopping my butt on the couch and watching the whole thing through, INCLUDING E's Red Carpet with Ryan and G.  I have been pouring over the recent runway shows picking out gowns that I am dying to see on the Red Carpet this season.  There are so many beautiful and fashionable actresses nominated for awards, I can't wait to see who dresses them!  Who are you excited to see??  Or am I the only one who really digs this stuff?

Green With Envy

There is something about the color EMERALD GREEN that I am loving in fashion right now.  I'm dying for a fabulous dress or a pair of drop earring to just "make" an outfit.

Wife On A Budget: Jewelry Obsessions

Those who know me well know that I do not wear extravagant jewelry.  I tend to sway to the simple side, mostly sticking with my engagement ring, wedding band and beautiful pearl studs that Mr. R gave me for our wedding.  If I am feeling fancy yet conservative I add the strand of pearls that Mr. R generously gave me to match my earrings.  I have been very vocal about a diamond and sapphire band to wear with my rings (anniversary coming up Mr. R!).

This being said, I DO enjoy the occasional statement necklace or bracelet and feel it can completely transform a plain ol' dress into a snazzy get-up.  I however REFUSE to spend a fortune on these baubles.  Call me a cheapskate but if its going to go out of style in 6 months anyways, why spend so much?!
