(Three Potato Four)

Blah! That’s how I’m feeling right about now and to top it all off later today we have a team building exercise at work. How’s that for a Monday?

There is one thing on Monday that always makes me happy, the Design Sponge sneak peek. Design Sponge is the online Bible for anybody in the design world. I would like to pretend I’m part of the design world but that’s just my imagination talking. Even if you have no style whatsoever, this blog is the place to go for ideas. Every week she posts pictures of somebody’s home who has style coming out of their ears. If you looking for a fun way to waste time, check out some sneak peeks here. The above pics are from some of my favorite sneak peeks.

Best Idea Ever. Period.

Sure this would result in several stitches and accidents but it would make you the coolest parents on the block.

Fashion Friday

March 28, 2008 // 0 Comments

I remember in high school my best friend, Katie Stukey, and I both had these heather grey t-shirts that we wore to every sleep over. Hers said Great Falls High Cheerleading Camp on it and my was and old GFHS track shirt that belonged to one of my older sisters and had been passed down. We loved them because they were that super soft fabric that was worn a little bit. If you were lucky you would find one at a thrift store but they just didn’t sell good quality t-shirts like that anymore. Then, last summer I entered a store called American Apparel and my life changed. American Apparel sells all your basic stuff in every color that you can possibly imagine. Some of their stuff is a little whack, like their body suits, and their advertising is a little alternative but they do sell the most comfortable, bestest, my most favoritest t-shirt of all time that’s exactly like the holey shirt I had in high school. Ladies and gentleman, I introduce to you, THE TRI-BLEND SHORT SLEEVE WOMEN’S TRACK TEE!


Katie Stukey, you know what you’re getting for your birthday this year.





Blame my dad for my cheapness

March 27, 2008 // 3 Comments

I’m somewhat cheap. I usually never buy an item of clothing that is over $30 and right now our living room is furnished with something we found in the trash. I’m sure most people are aware of a little site called Etsy where you can buy/sell homemade stuff. I love to browse this site but I’ve actually only bought one thing on it so far. I have the tendency to look at the items I like and say, “I could make that for a lot cheaper.” Is this wrong?


Wouldn’t this poster make you happy every morning?


This one is actually more affordable. I would put it in a child’s room. I just have thing for sock monkeys.


I guess I also have a thing for Scrabble.(this one is actually from the Curiousity Shoppe but I could totally make it)





No Lost on tonight makes me want to cry

Today I will present you with another list I’ve come up with recently. First, I have a confession (this is related to the list). Whenever I’m in line at the store I look at the celebrity magazines. Usually I just browse the headlines and laugh but when it’s a really long line and the headline is “J Lo’s baby pictures!” I might just have to sneak a peek. I wish I didn’t fall into this trap but I do. With no further ado, today’s list:

Actresses who just bug me for no particular reason (some people-aka Jessica Simpson and the like- are left off the list because they are so obvious):

Eva Longoria
Ellen Pompeo
Amanda Bynes
Hayden Panettiere
Jessica Biel
Alexis Bledel (even though I love Gilmore Girls)
Ali Larter
Mariah Carey (is this an obious lister one?)

Does anybody else have certain celebrities who just bug them?

Cute garlands! Wouldn’t these be great in a kid’s room? Somebody in my house will be getting one for their birthday. That somebody is me.

You don’t have to have a blogger account to make a comment on this blog, you can just need to sign in with your gmail address or just comment anonymously. I will appreciate it lots.

Confession: When I first started this blog I didn’t think I’d care about comments but I’m really curious as to what people think. Mostly, do all my lovely sisters look at this and think to themselves, “Where did my sister’s crazy style come from? It certainly wasn’t from me!”

Oh, and since this post is slightly random, we watched The King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters last night and it is a must see.





Does anybody love flats as much as I do?

I like the way my legs look in heels but come on ladies, most of the time you pick comfort over pain. Old Navy flats are on clearance for under $13 and they have tons of colors/patterns to choose from. Go ahead and give yourself an early (or late) birthday present. I did.
