I finally found a pair of skinny jeans that worked for me BUT the side seams had brass colored thread running down the legs..... I hate that and put them back.

12/10/2010 7:32:37 PM

i only like skinny jeans right now

but i refuse to buy designer skinny jeans cause i am fat

SO i went to old navy and got their diva skinny jeans like last year...2 pairs. they finally wore out like a month ago so i went back and got another pair

i have to wash mine so they fit in the length. because the shorts are too short but the regulars are baggy in the thigh/knee

the waist and everything is fine for me. and they have vanity sizing like whoa so you feel better about yourself. so if someone wants skinny jeans on the cheap, i'd try there!

12/10/2010 7:35:50 PM

ha. i have the exact opposite problem you guys are having.

they fir AWESOME in the waist but cut off the damn circulation in my calves


stupid tree trunk legs.

12/10/2010 7:41:01 PM

Well the only skinny's I own are the GAP Really Skinny black pants. OMG they feel soooo good!!! I have large calves too Joie . But I'm obsessed with these pants.

The GAP at Triangle Town gives 40% off on Wednesdays if you like their Facebook page. You just tell them you saw the announcement on their page and you get the discount on one full price item. I bought them with the discount and paid like 29.50 or something. LORD I must have another pair. They have brown and grey....can't decide if I want another black pair or one of those.

I'll have to check out old navy. I haven't worn any actual skinny jeans just yet.

ladies! amazon is had the 6qt kitchenaid mixers in a little bit of a discount right now plus kitchenaid is offering a $50 rebate through the end of the december

the price is pretty decent based on what i have seen since i have been in the market. i bought mine on a black friday deal on amazon for $250 (not including the rebate) but i was limited to 2 colors, this deal is open to all colors!

get down on it

12/10/2010 11:43:23 PM

We got that mixer in Pearl Metallic as a wedding gift- it is AWESOME! I've used it for some general dessert baking (cakes, frostings, brownies, cookies) as well as breads and whatnot. The dough hook is money.

I'm hoping we get some pasta rollers and a meat grinder attachment for it for Christmas

12/11/2010 8:17:43 AM

ahhhh ... summer memories!!

The nickel pearl is MY FAVORITE color in the KitchenAid mixer. It's gorgeous.

HALP! I have a date at 6 pm at a cool microbrew spot and I don't know what to wear.

It's chilly, so definitely covering up a bit. I guess I should wear jeans and a sweater, given the weather, but that sounds so unsexy. :/ Ideas? How to look hot when it's cold outside?

12/12/2010 4:40:02 PM

wear something that accentuates the pokies

12/12/2010 4:41:59 PM

three words .... opaque black tights!!!

wear them with some cute chunky shoes, a pencil skirt, and a boob-hugging cashmere sweater under a snappy winter coat! add a scarf if it's really cold. as long as you bundle up enough on top, tights can keep you plenty warm. you'll look cute!!!

12/12/2010 4:43:18 PM

like nipple tassles?

That might be a bit OTT

besides, my pokies aren't necessarily a selling point

12/12/2010 4:43:44 PM

I may have to do that! Thanks, Nerdchick.

ihearttights and cute scarves

What about opaque black tights with a black skirt and black boots, with a long-sleeved black shirt topped with a red fleece vest? And a black, red and white scarf?

Too matchy matchy?

12/12/2010 4:47:13 PM

sounds good to me! maybe switch the scarf if you're worried about being too matchy. just make sure your blacks are the same color....

12/12/2010 4:58:55 PM

I wish it were a Saturday night, because I have some sexy pleather leggings that are also super comfy.

tights and leggings are the best evar

This guy is super earth crunchy though ... maybe jeans would still be better?

Why is it so challenging to figure out what to wear?

well if he takes you to a drum circle you can dress down

I say if you want to dress up, then dress up! looking good never takes the day off

12/12/2010 5:10:41 PM

I really like Nerdchick's idea of tights/skirt but if you want to do jeans - you could do skinny jeans, fun pumps, a long tank with a cardigan.

12/12/2010 5:24:25 PM

if he is that crunchy, he probably doesn't care what you wear as long as your ass looks good. seriously.

12/12/2010 5:27:52 PM

Actually, I decided on:

Dark jeans
Boots
A sexy red sleeveless silk top with sweetheart neckline
Fitted black cardigan

^ ahaha love it!

^that dress is awesome

12/16/2010 6:33:59 PM

i hope it is! that company, IGIGI, is totally awesome. i got a tracking number like 15 minutes after i placed my order.

12/16/2010 6:37:39 PM

Def digging the color palette of that dress. Nice call!

Also, I think taupe is closer to the first color.

12/17/2010 8:49:53 AM

lets hope so

12/17/2010 2:41:16 PM

CUTE CUTE CUTE....seriously, the cutest theyve ever had since ive been frequenting there (ive lived down the road for about 3 years now )

mostly cute pumps.

just though i would share

ill see if i can find some pics.

[Edited on December 17, 2010 at 7:54 PM. Reason : alright, i cant find any pics...but there were adorable guess glitter pumps EVERYWHERE]

12/17/2010 7:49:58 PM

hi pretties! i'm getting a BIG GIRL job soon! I have decided that with a big girl job I need to have a big girl room so I am getting new bedding. I am going to buy it with my first paycheck....I can buy it now but I am just going to wait....here it is i love it!!

Also, I'm obsessed how it looks in the picture, all made up nicely...it may inspire me to make my bed up in the morning. I am also hoping with my big girl life I will keep my room clean.....

^ ohhh congrats!!! i bought new bedding when i moved to houston and picked what looks like almost the exact pattern

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LIYP52/ref=oss_product

Are those silk wolfy?

No I didnt click the link lol

I love that pattern a lot. I think when we upgrade our bedroom suite I'm going dark brown wood, contemporary four poster, with white sheets and such. I found the perfect four poster at z gallerie.

loooooooooooove

12/19/2010 11:08:18 PM

no they're not silk

that bed is nice!! when you finally get it, you'll love it for years to come!

omg i LOOOVVE my bed!! i bought it from a local furniture place and its amazing.



my master is gigantic so i needed massive furniture to fill it up (and there is still room for a couch in there)

12/19/2010 11:11:38 PM

That's pretty sweet. I love the black and the sheets for perfectly with the bed frame!

12/19/2010 11:14:36 PM

and you wonder why soldiers are dying in Iraq...

12/19/2010 11:14:40 PM

I looked at it today and the it's on sale for 60 instead of 90...I think Santa might be bringing it to me now.

I'll just buy lots of accessories with my first paycheck instead.

Like.....

and

ooohh Wolfy love love love the bright sheets with it...hmm. I was going to get black sheets...maybe I will change my mind. Mine is more cream than white and the black is velvet. I'm so excited about it...prob more excited about the bedding than the job haha

[Edited on December 19, 2010 at 11:18 PM. Reason : <3 Wolfy's bed]

12/19/2010 11:15:57 PM

the pattern is really popular right now. i found a black wicker hamper with coordinating liner at ross and i've seen the pattern all over marshalls and tjmaxx too, area rugs, lamps etc! good luck and have fun

I love this lamp too...I couldn't get the image to work right. Okay enough about my bedroom...time to watch Veronica Mars on Netflix...anyone watch that show?

12/19/2010 11:20:30 PM

Lol STOP WITH THE PATTERNS

Pick one or two things to pattern up then just coordinate with accessories in the same color scheme (i.e. black, white, colors like wolfy)

You don't wanna walk in your room and think the baroque era has thrown up. Its a great pattern and is being used on EVERYTHING these days so it's easy to get excited. Just take a step back and like Coco Chanel says, take off one accessory when you're finished getting dressed

12/20/2010 12:19:35 AM

Urban Decay makeup is back on HauteLook today! Everything is $2 too - mostly mineral eyeshadows, eyeliner, mascara and lip gloss.

American Apparel is up too...never bought any of it before.

12/20/2010 11:51:19 AM

I just found out I'm getting a new down comforter for christmas (SO EXCITED)

so now i'm debating between which duvet covers to buy. so far I like


and

12/20/2010 12:03:10 PM

the first one hurts my eyes

12/20/2010 12:03:59 PM

^^ The second one is great. Very sophisticated for a pink comforter.

12/20/2010 12:05:25 PM

does it have to be hot pink?

why not go for something a little more grown up so you can use it longer.

but if it has to be hot pink, i vote AGAINST the leopard. it just seems so spencer's to me

12/20/2010 12:06:03 PM

The only challenge with hot pink is that men can be weirded out by overly girly decor.

12/20/2010 12:07:16 PM

yea i know they're kinda BRIGHT but i live in (and will be for awhile) college living apartments. they're all white and very very blah and so is my current comforter and i am in drastic need of color

no it doesn't have to be pink i just like pink

i have black sheets. i figured they'd match.

i'll do grown up bedding when I actually have a grown up place

12/20/2010 12:08:01 PM

you can have grown up bedding now! all those marshall & tjmaxx type stores have NICE sheets on the cheap

that is, if you like high thread count. if you're looking for fun & colorful, they can do that too

iheartkisses makes a valid point about the guys...

go for what you like!

12/20/2010 12:10:55 PM

oh that's true i haven't hit those places up yet. and as I have no man i'm not really concerned about what guys think.

i've just been in a really hot pink mood
