I don't know that I've ever considered a giraffe print for clothing, but this dress changed my mind. Its pretty coral-colored animal spots have won me over. Some of you might remember from my weekend shopping post that I got this dress at LOFT for 40% off plus another 15$ off. I always feel even more awesome when I wear something I saved a ...

Motivation Mondays, OOTD & Weekend Shopping
I know I haven't done a "Motivation Mondays" post in a long time, partly because well, I've been seriously lacking motivation. It's a combination of things...stress, laziness, tiredness (probably a result of the stress.) I just haven't been feeling like my usual energetic, motivated self lately when it comes to working out.

Essie’s “Van D’Go” Was A No-Go & A Coral Outfit of the Day
I had high hopes. I really did. I went out of my nail polish comfort zone and tried out two coral/peachy colors: Essie's "Shop Till I Drop" and Essie's "Van D'Go". In the bottle both colors look bright and beautiful, but on the nails, it's a whole new story...with an unfortunate bad ending. So, because pictures speak louder than ...
Tomorrow
I am pre-ordering the new i Phone 4 tomorrow. I currently have a Blackberry Curve without internet on it (phone and text only.) For as much as I'm online, I think an i Phone will be awesome to have. I'm getting the new all-white one. <3 Anyone else upgrading to an i Phone? Pre-orders start tomorrow and the phone actually comes out on the 24th. ...
