a bright smile your way

I haven't done an outfit post in a while, but I have been so busy with school that some days I end up not even getting dressed [I shouldn't admit that!].  Yesterday, after a long day of school and school work I managed to get dressed.  I wore something that was comfortable and suited what I would be doing for the day.  Lately I've been rather grumpy with all my school, but yesterday I had a smile and was more positive!  It made my day better by having a better attitude.  I randomly started playing with some of the photos and was just having fun editing them in weird ways.  Enjoy!

Although I am getting annoyed about all the Kardashian drama & Fairy Tale Wedding stuff lately, I did buy this awesome nail polish at Wal-Mart from the Kardashian Kolor "Kollection".  This was in Kris Jenner's selection and is called My Empire...My Rules.  I love the hint of brown this grey polish has in it!  Perfect for fall!

 

I love my boots that I showed you in my earlier post.  They are super comfortable!

Told you I was in a good mood and couldn't stop smiling!!  Maybe it's because I got to see my boyfriend too :)

Upstate Dancing With The Stars

This past Saturday night, I attended the 2011 Upstate Oxygen Ball which was themed "Upstate Dancing With The Stars."  I went with my best friend, Olivia, because her mom was a participant in the dance (and she was the winner)!  The night started out with a silent auction, then dinner and dancing!  I haven't attended many charity dinners/events (because obviously they want people who have money to come and donate) but I had a lot of fun and would love to go to more!  I wish I had more photos but this is what I did come away with:

I am wearing earrings: target, dress: BB Dakota, shoes: BCBG, clutch: Hobo International

Yay!  She won!!  (Mrs. Young and Olivia)

How cute our we?

I got tricked by Quibids...

Yesterday as I was "stumbleupon-ing"  I came across an article about Quibids.  I thought, wow how cool, I am so going to try this!  Well, that's where it all began.  For those of you who have never heard about Quibids, it is an online auction site where each bid raises the price only by 1 cent.  They have macbooks, ipads, and so many more great electronics that sell for anywhere from $3.00-$150.00.  But here is the catch, you pay 60 cents for each bid you place.  I started off paying $60 for 100 bids.  I thought I had it all planned out to where I could bid on a 500 bid voucher for under $10 and be set on bidding for the ipad that I was determined to get.  Well, I never ended up winning any of those bids except one for 2 cents for a 20 bid voucher + $15 wal-mart gift card (I mean really, I paid $60 to win that?!?!)  So by this point, I am beyond frustrated...I decide to purchase just 45 more bids for $27.  I have now invested $87 in bidding, needless to say...I only left with the $15 Wal-mart gift card and wasted about 8 hours of my life.  Thanks Quibids.

 

Above is my screen, as you can see I have 0 bids left.  But doesn't it look so appealing that I could win these things for so cheap?  I definitely bought into it.  sigh.  Last night a brand new macbook sold for $112.  Multiply that by 60 cents and their profit on that alone was $6,720 (minus the cost they pay for the computer-which they obviously get at cost!)  WHAT A SCAM!

Where I get dressed

I love seeing blog posts about closets.  I dream of one day having a closet the size of a large room, completely organized where I am able to see all of my clothes, shoes, purses, jewelry, scarves, and every other accessory I own!  [Basically like every celebrity owns.]  For now, I have organized all my clothing the best I can think of how with my limited space.  In my closet, I have all my bottoms, tops, dresses and jackets color coordinated within each category.  I use all plastic white hangers; and I like to use the smaller size for tank tops.  My purses are all at the very top, which is annoying because I have to use a chair to get them down.  To the left of my closet, I have a small chest of drawers [which I painted] full of jewelry, scarves, socks, and tights.  Sitting on top is my rings, bracelets, and a few necklaces.  Hanging above the chest of drawers is the earring/necklace holder I made [which is almost finished!]  I still need to find vintage door knobs to screw into the top of the frame so I can hang my necklaces.
