it has been a bad day. so i went down to sioux city to do some errands and my car decides it wants to either stall or jerk forward all of a sudden anytime i stop at  a light. so bc of me; i almost cause three accidents and i feel so terrible about it. as soon as i got back to orange city i drove it straight to the mechanic. hopefully they can fix it tomorrow and won't cost be a fourtune. :( so as a way to deal with my stress, i have been playing with water colours all day. its fairly relaxing and soothing. good way to deal with stress:)

awesome day! someone i work with gets all these free designer perfumes. and since she doesn't need so many she gave me a ton (!) of them! i am super excited. i sometimes would rather just get a sample or travel size perfume bc i never stick with just one perfume. honest. i've never had a "signature" scent. it just always changes. so woot! i will have a lot of different scents to pick from for a while:)

um so blogger automatically rotated this picture and i  don't know how to change it:s but anyways these shoes are from aldo and despite their height they are pretty comfy. def. got a lot of compliments on these:)

so i was having a cleaning frenzy today and found these little candles in the top of my cabinet. and best yet they still have a scent after around a year of just sitting up there.

sorry i didn't post yesterday! anyways. yesterday i finally got my first order from birch box and holy cows i'm in love:) fyi birchbox is this site where for $10 bucks a month you get little beauty samples. great for those of us that don't like to commit to a huge bottle if we've never tried it before. for more info go to birchbox.com. ok so the last picture is my little red bag:) it's so bright and fun. especially since most of my clothes are black or very neutral. i'm slowly learning that colour is a good thing to wear:p hope you guys are all having amazing day:)

love these hiking boots by charlotte russe:) good way to try out the season's (ok last season's...) trend without spending a crazy amount. and they are so super comfy! if you've never tried their high heels, you've gotta give them a try.

i always think that the insides of peppers look weird. just the little bundles of seeds look so ...gross? i don't know why but things like that i find a little gross. like dried out cracks on a gravel road; they look weird when you actually look at them. very random stuff bothers me.

so since i didn't post anything yesterday i took three very random pictures.
1) my boyfriend. on the computer. shock. :P
2) lights at a coffee shop
3) cats at feeding time.

sorry i know that these aren't the greatest:( i'm sorry

my new bag:) it's basically a wanna be alexa bag (by mulberry...) and yes i know that it's not a good thing to buy fakes and i hardly ever do buy fakes. but i wasn't 100% with it when i bought it...:( but it is very pretty and i love it:)

1-11-11

left waaay to early for work today and had some time to kill, so i grabbed a cup of coffee at the coffee shop. i also had a couple of 8th grade boys look at me like i was crazy for taking pictures of a light:p meh. o well.

1-10-11

yay. more snow. i'm so excited. (please note the sarcasm in those last comments..) ok so while yes, i am sick of snow, i do have to admit that it was really beautiful looking today. for once there was no wind so the snow was just softly falling.  and i just realized how to make the pictures bigger. :) yay!

scarf in top picture: maurices


so figured since i cheated today i would take two pictures today. the first is a new scarf i got from work and the second is my "jewelry tree". christmas gift from my mom:) so i'm trying to find a good either wide angle or telephoto lens for my canon. anybody have any suggestions? what are some of your favourite lens?
