Swiss Miss






dress, worn as skirt: Anthropologie (old), long sleeve tee: Old Navy, sweater and boots: Forever21 (old), tights: Target
Sometimes a girl just needs lots of layers. That's how I felt about this outfit for Friday. This red sweater dress is a favorite of mine and it gets a lot of wear out of it during the fall and winter months. But to avoid comments like, "ummm didn't you just wear that last week?" from people who see me on a regular basis I have to mix it up. And voila, turning a dress into a skirt with this fair isle swearter works every time! It added some pattern and warmth all in one to my wardrobe workhorse. It was the perfect outfit for running errands with a cup of hot coco to keep me warm.



Of course taking pictures with me always leads to some silliness...I heart fall!

Friday Flick Picks


The amount of movies I've been seeing in a week has been particularly low lately. Busy weekends and short evenings have kept me away from my home away from home (the theatre) but hopefully I can get out for more soon. The past week I got out to see The Rum Diary. It was just OK. Johnny is always entertaining and fun but the plot kind of stalled out for me. Probably a case of too many interesting plot lines in the book not enough time for all of them to be flushed out in a 2 hour movie. Only watch if you've seen everything else out right now, but if you haven't I'd say you can easily pass on this movie. I was just happy to be sitting in a movie theatre on a Saturday so I was happy.

I already know I'll have at lease one movie to talk about next week because I have a movie date tomorrow. But you'll have to wait until next Friday to see what it was. I hope you guys have a great weekend and I'll see you back here on Monday!

Have a Little Laugh

This week I'm having a case of the blahs. You know what I mean? You're not crazy over the top about anything but you're not completely bummed about anything either...just right in the middle. Perhaps it's because the days are getting shorter or that I haven't spent much time with my busy honey this week. I really think it's because I'm trying to repress my exuberant Christmas spirit until at least the week of Thanksgiving so people don't think I'm crazy for listening to Christmas music on the way to work.

Something that is guarantee to put a smile on my face is this tumblr site: Suri's Burn Book. Simple in presentation but delightfully snarky in its content. Spoken from Suri's point of view her rants target the children of other Hollywood celebrities, their parents, and even takes jabs at her own mother and father(always referred to as Tom and Katie) for the ridiculous things they do. Her favorite celeb child to tear apart is Shiloh Jolie-Pitt. Forever the tomboy to her girlie princess; Suri can't believe the outfits she wears or her lack of manners or decorum. And don't even get her started on her hatred of crocs!

If you're looking for a laugh on this Thursday spend 10 minutes on Suri's Burn Book, you won't be disappointed.
Her bag is made of newspaper and her shoes are camouflage SLIP-ONS. No one ever listens to me.

Grier Henchy (the little one with the surly disposition) and I were born on the exact same day at the exact same hospital. Now, five and a half years later, I’m me and she’s an angry ginger at a Smurfs premiere.
I’ve yet to make my red carpet debut, but I can guarantee you that when I do, I will not be wearing PANTS and FLATS.

Excuse me for not wanting to be seen with my mother’s pants.
I sat next to this for seven hours last night on a red-eye from LA to New York. She smells like Lycra and desperation.
