deep blue

OPI - Play 'Til Midnight

i've been scoping around for the perfect blue nail polish and this might just be it. It's a navy blue base with purple and pink shimmer. it's from 08's holiday in toyland collection so you might not be able to find it in stores, but OPI has one called Russian Navy that looks similar.. just a little more glitter than shimmer.
i really like this color for day and/or night.... probably not so much for work tho :-/

roar


i'm really heart-ing animal print right now so i'm happy that it's popping up everywhere.

i picked up this cute leopard cardigan at forever21 a few weeks ago and it was just hanging in my closet waiting to be worn. Then, last weekend when the temperatures dropped, i finally got to wear it. ::insert big cheesy smile here:: now i can't seem to take it off. good thing i'm not a celebrity because they would have me in one of those magazines under 'Her Favorite Cardigan' and show my repeat offenses. lol
i wore it over a long white V-neck tshirt and black leggings with the red lips :)
((i should have done the 'what i wore' pic))

not just for the ladies

I saw Mario's video for Thinkin About You the other day and loved the man scarf look he was rockin'.

What do you girls think.?
Man scarf: yay or nay.?

Jay Z

Justin Timberlake

Marc Anthony



..now

Just for a moment, live in joy. Forget about what should or should not be, and just let yourself be as you are.

Let go of the need to need. Feel the reality that you already are enough, and that it is truly magnificent.

Do not worry about what will be or what won’t be. See and feel the limitless beauty of what is.

Taste the eternal freshness of now. Live fully the boundless miracle of existence.

What you authentically feel now, you feel always. This moment is the most valuable opportunity you’ve ever known.

Live in joy now. And carry more joy forward as each moment passes.

— Ralph Marston

they've been performing this song for what seems like forever, but here's the studio version



brrr?

sorry i've been ghost and not posting lately. this new job has me busy and tired... and i kinda love it. lots of good things going on besides the fabulous new job that are keeping a smile on my face. :)

these past couple of days there's been lots of talk about a 'cold front' coming through south florida and i've been getting all hyped up about it. i mean... even mid to low 70s would make me happy. this heat in mid October isn't cute. so i went online today just to see for myself...

whaaaat.?! lows in the 60s.!? i'm excited. these weather people better not be lying and playing with my emotions. i'm not even mad about the 'scattered thunderstorms.' if that's what's going to give us chilly weather, bring it on.! time to take out the sweaters... ok time to take out A sweater lol.

why i love October


CANDY CORN
i can't walk away from the bag.

... that and the weather starts to get cooler (kinda, hopefully)

i still haven't figured out (or really given it much thought) if i'm going to dress up this year or not. and if i decide yes, then i have to think about what to dress up as.
hmmm.
any ideas.?

last year i just took Jamel trick-or-treating and took all his candy... and no, that's not mean. he was two. two year olds shouldn't be eating so much candy. i was doing him a favor. and, as a matter of fact, three year olds shouldn't either. i might have to help him out again.
