This Week in Fashion

What an icky week! It was rainy, chilly and dreary for the better part of the week but there were some moments of sunshine mixed in. I tried not to let the weather affect my clothing choices like it usually does and I think I did a pretty good job of not dressing drab. I also ate out far too much this week! A diner on Tuesday, Ruby Tuesday's on Thursday and we're getting something junky today at work (maybe Duchess hot dogs...YUM!)  This weekend I get to plant some flowers my parents bought be (if it's not rainy) and I have TONS of magazines to read [2 months worth]...I've had no time lately! But I WILL get through most of them this weekend.

I also NEED to find more of these Free People skinny jeans so I can buy more and have them forever. I have loved them since the moment I bought them on Gilt Groupe but that obviously means that they are going to be hard to find again. I want the exact model, not a similar pair. (meaning this was a pointless ramble since you guys don't know what it is...I think they were called "5 Pocket Skinny Jean in midnight indigo")
