Part of That World...

I want to live inside the November issue of the Anthropologie catalog!

I am an Anthro junkie. Love their store, the aesthetic, their clothes, shoes, jewelery, housewares, everything! I get so excited when I get an email update from them or their new catalog finds its way into my mailbox. Obviously with Christmas around the corner they've bumped up the size and thickness of this months book and it's filled beautiful winter coats, boots, party dresses, Christmas ornaments, and snow.

I mean who wouldn't want to let out their inner boho-eclectic-relaxed-chic inner self after looking at all these beautiful clothes??

I just found a blog yesterday (while searching for some of their new catalogue pictures) called "Anthropologie Addict." This blogs basically sums up my obsession with their clothing. Everyday she'll post about an article of clothing she's loving or an Antro related piece of news in the fashion world; she also shares her splurges she buys for herself, which makes me feel better about my spending at their store every once in awhile.

So what are you waiting for go buy yourself something pretty!

Change of Plans

So after the second month of slacking on movie picks I've decided to change up the movie posts and they'll go back to my normal sporadic recommendations or disapproval.

I do want to try to come up with some types of recurring post either weekly or monthly but I haven't made the time to really figure out what I'd like them to be about. I thought movies would be an obvious choice because I love going to the movies, but as in most cases the second I decided I wanted to go to more I had no time to go see them.

I will say this about movies right now that there aren't too many amazing looking movies out right now. I think the Fall is a weird time for movies because the summer blockbuster are over and the Oscar worthy movies don't come out until late November/December so it's been a slow, non interesting time for movies these past few weeks, but it's going to get better soon!

Movies I'm hoping I'll see soon: Boondock Saints 2- This movie came out in select cities on the 30th of October and no word on when it will have a wider release. Fingers crossed it does well and it comes to my city. Precious- Wide release Nov. 20th; with Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey producing this movie it's supposed to a heavy Oscar contender and if you like well acted dramatic powerful movies then I highly recommend it. Don't let the fact that Mariah Carey being in it scare you away (we all remember, or don't remember, Glitter). Nine-just watch this and you'll want to see it.

And on the note of Christmas (I've given up on trying to avoid my love for the holiday early this year) besides the Disney 3-D version of A Christmas Carol coming out this Friday, sometime in December a movie about the Nutcracker will be coming out too so yay to that!

Trick or Treat

Last night was round 1 in the dressing up Halloween extravaganza of my weekend.

Over the past few years I left the "sexy costume" trend behind and started going as actual people. Partly because I'm too classy (and perhaps too old) to be showing off the goods like I did in college and second you can't beat a 10 dollar costume put together from Goodwill or flea markets.

Over the summer I became obsessed with How I Met Your Mother so I decided to pull out a costume people were probably doing 3 years ago and go as Robin Sparkles. Robin Scherbatsky's teen pop star identity. I knew no one would know who I was seeing as her look is pretty late 80's/early 90's generic, so worse come to worse people would think I pulled out my acid wash skirt and jelly bracelets from the back of my closet and called it a last minute costume.

Well one person knew who I was and I'm calling it a successful night!

I also helped work the door for this event so I got to see everyone's Halloween costume fresh off the elevator and these were the costumes I was most impressed with...


That's right, two girls came as the Blue Barracuda team! Decked out with helmets, knee pads, and their names on the back of their tshirts they were ready to beat out the Green Monkeys and answer a history question about Sacajawea.

A group of 5 came as characters from Mario Kart. Mario, Luigi, Toadstool, the Princess and Yoshi were all in attendance complete with home made boxes with suspenders to act as their go-kart.

Two girls came as Judy and Jane Jetson. I can't wait for the future...white and orange hair that looks great with that one outfit we own...and flying cars? It's gonna rock!

I hope everyone has a safe, fun and Happy Halloween! Save some fun sized candy bars for me!

Squirrel, Squirrel, Shake Your Bushy Tail

I am finding cute little squirrels all over the internet lately! I can't resist their big eyes, pink noses, and bushy tails. Squirrel #1. Squirrel #2. Squirrel #3.

The Great Pumpkin Comes Tonight!

Tonight, tonight, The Great Pumpkin comes on tonight! Catch the Charlie Brown classic tonight at 8pm (est) on ABC. You won't be disapointed.

To start your weekend with a smile

It's Friday! This week has seemed very long, so I am definitely looking forward to some sleeping in, catching up with friends and taking in some fun fall activities.

I'm sharing some fun images from around the Internet, lets meet back on Monday! :) *This beautiful wedding picture is taken by some friends of mine Chris and Allie who reside in Hot-lanta Georgia. You can check out their blog here.

A Pink Nighmare

This could be you for Halloween.

How awesome would this be if you showed up to your Halloween dressed like this?? You would win any contest hands down with this trick up your sleeve.

This costume can be bought here, as well as many other items revolving around the movie A Christmas Story.

I'm trying to hold back on the Christmas postings...but I can't help it. The joy of the season is taking over me extremely early. I shouldn't even mention I bought a new Christmas tree the other day at Garden Ridge, but I can't help it!
