{Grrrrr….can’t get the red eye out!!! Must be the fire in my eyes…}
*******
So at the moment I’m trying to get from this mood:
{Feeling a bit….mmmm…ponderous. Is that the word I’m looking for?}
To this mood:
{Being joyful in what is real, what is here, what is right.}
Have you ever wanted something really bad, and you think it will make you happy if you get it….and then you either arrive there or you see a snippet of what it would be like to be there, and suddenly it doesn’t seem so great?
Or maybe it is great, but you realize that the “it” isn’t going to bring about that happiness you had hoped for?
Ya….me too.
I just tend to get so distracted sometimes…I guess I should go back and read this again.
Thankfully I have amazing friends, who aren’t afraid to tell me like it is. They listen and know…and care….and they totally make me realize what is truly important.
Ahhhh, the joy of real God-given friendships.
Ha! And you thought this was just a fashion post.
******
Jeans: Roxy, TJ Maxx {Love the wide legs! Much comfier than the skinnies!}
Long sleeved black Tee: Roxy, TJ Maxx {The most comfy tee ever…and I die over longer than long sleeves. Even better when they belle out.}
Shoes: Paolo, Platos Closet Resale {Totally got broken in in Vegas. Next best thing to my baby Lou Lou’s that I had to send back. Dumb sizing issues!}
Ring: Styles 4 Less {Found it in the desert on my way to Vegas. Little pit stop for shoes. And apparently a ring.}
Jacket: Forever 21 {Kinda reminds me of the texture of carpet, but whatev. It’s leopard, it’s 3/4 length sleeves, and it’s fabulous. And it’s mine. Allllll mine.}
P.S. I haven’t been doing Mr. Linky the last few weeks, but if anyone is interested in linking up, lemme know…I’ll add it back in.
P.P.S I tend to get bored a lot and need change. I love my header on this blog, but feel like it may need a little tweak. Just not sure what. Any ideas???

I LOVE those jeans. Too cute.
I love your header, but I’m the same way. Just re-did mine a week ago and already I’m totally bored with it, lol. I have issues.
You look smashing!!! Love it …wearing leopard today too. 😉
Fire in your eyes? Me thinks you are “Simze-ing” (did you see that ultra weird episode on America’s Next Top Model?).
Gorgeous as usual!
Hey, stopping by from SITS! I love the look, and those jeans are fantastic!
As for the feelings, yeah, I am having those right now and it tough to move forward when you have no clue what is really the right way to go. Sometimes what we want and what we need are two different things..
yes! i totally know what you mean… and all the better to get a snippet BEFORE you get what you asked for, then be over/underwhelmed when it happens. been there. oh, girl, and i totally love the moody pix – sometimes i just have to “fake it til i make it” into a better mood! here’s to making joy happen!!! ~ marit
ps- you look fabulous, as usual, muah!
That is such a cute outfit. I love the jeans. When I read they were from TJ Maxx I got excited. I could live in that store!
Very cute outfit! You always looks great. 🙂

I love the leopard jacket…love, love, love.
And that RING! Girl…I need that in my life.
Isn’t Forever 21 the greatest store in the world? My suitcase was full of it when I flew to Vegas last week. They have the best accessories…shoes…headbands…tees & tanks…
Super cute! I love the jeans!
I keep saying I want to participate in the FAshion Friday but I don’t do anything about it. I need to PLAN it out!
Okay. I’m committing to next week and putting it on my calendar.
Shirts with extra long, long sleeves are the greatest… and they seem to be fairly hard to find. Love the jacket!
Girl, your backside looks amazing! I’m jealous!
ooh me likey the leopard…makes me say RAWRRR!!! cat claws and e’rything! 😉

OK, love love love that outfit.

Yours truly.
An older, fatter person.

Oh and Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest!!
So, I have some pants like that. Mine drag on the ground and my mom (fashion guru she is not) is always griping at me for it and I admit, I find it minorly annoying too. So, fashion adviser to the stars, is the ground dragging a do or a don’t? Am I 3008 or 2000 and late? Lemme know what’s up:)!
Too Cute! I love those jeans. I hope you stayed in that mood all weekend:)
Stopping by from SITS. Glad I found you.
I’m just playin’ on your blog and HAD to click on this post to see where you got the leopard print jacket.
Uhmmmmm…I’m coveting it right now. Please love me through that.
Now I’m off to F21.com to try and find it. If you bought it, like, three years ago…don’t tell me. It’ll burst my bubble.
And I love you tons. You’re all good. I’m all good. We’ll be aaaaaaallll good together.
