Of Friday's Outfit




What I Wore: Purple Cardigan from Target, Black Tank Top from Target, Black pleated skirt from Platos Closet, and Black boots from Payless!

One of the best parts was that my skirt went "swoosh swoosh swoosh!" as I walked!

P.S. the other "best part" was that I felt really hot in this outfit.

Favorites Friday

And now onto my Favorites Friday Pics for Today. Please don't forget to read my previous blog though too!



Velvet Heels

I would DIE from pure joy if I ever got these heels. They're beyond beautiful. Beyond. They're exactly perfect for my style and my purple-loving wardrobe. I would wear them every chance I got, even though at 5'10" they would make me TOWER over people at an impressive 6'3".

AND...
That's it for today. Just those awesome shoes, and the post before this one. I'm all blogged out.

Favorites Friday

Have you noticed how randomly I will end up switching the 'S' from one word to the other in my Favorites Friday blogs? (or is it Favorite Fridays?)...
UGH!

Anyway, I was sorry to hear Cara, via your twitter, that you were having issues uploading your blog photos. :-(
I hope that you do get that all figured out! I'm currently at work, because I was playing Sims 3 this morning and didn't realize that I had to blog. Work here at Baker is incredibly slow in the summer anyway, so no one minds that I blog while I "work". I am just on reception here in the Learning Center, but normally I am available for tutoring appointments. ANYWAY! Enough of the boring stuff!

Today's outfit is really kick-a$$, and I'm excited to show you the pictures later, but my camera is home and I am here, in Muskegon, so that post will have to wait! Maybe I'll even have my mom take pics for me. Cause I just can't do this one justice.

As you may or may not (but I really hope that you have) noticed, I've added a new feature to my Lyd Through Life world, and that is Owl Wednesdays. Yup. A whole day dedicated to owls! This ensures that I will at least post twice a week, and hopefully I will soon get into the habit of blogging my outfits in between those times.

Story time:
This morning I was inspired by the story of my friend (who will remain unnamed) who said that when she got new piercings, she changed her earrings WAY before the allotted time, and she was fine! I was also influenced by the shiny earrings that I had just cleaned, and I wanted to change these darn studs out!

BAD IDEA

I have inherited from my father, the tendency to faint or get woozy when something happens that's tragic. Like when I got my ears pierced, or when he smashed his finger this morning (nothing too bad, so don't worry, but he'll have a black spot on his thumb nail for a while)...

So... I had issues actually un-backing my earrings... so while I played on the computer, I kept pulling at my left one... hoping that I would get it.... Well I did. And I freaked... And I tried to get the other stud in but it wouldn't go through... and I freaked more... and then I finally got my regular stud in, then I couldn't get the back on, because I was shaking... and I was panicking, thinking that I wouldn't be able to get my earring back in, because my ears JUST WEREN'T READY.... and I got really hot, and I had to lay down on the bathroom floor.. and I almost threw up, and I almost fainted.

Yeah, it was traumatic. So as you can imagine... I'm going to wait REALLY REALLY long before I attempt changing them again. Cause that was bad.

PHEW!

I'm glad that's over...
Sorry! I didn't intend to write so much today... but I just felt like a chat.

Owl Wednesday

Reply to Cara:
That totally sucks that you missed the first ten minutes of HP DHP2. Bummer. MMMMMM Ponytail Guy = *eye candy* (#sarcasm#). EEEWWW creepy Back-Hair Guy! Um.... almost died in the pond? Overreact much? Well I'm glad you didn't die anyway. That would have been a real downer. I link all of my photos by their names, but I found it on Modcloth... I've been trying to find a cool pattern like that.. cause I'm pretty sure it's knitted... and I knit! So logically, I can make those!
And what's up with the phlemy Hot comment? Does that mean sarcasm? Cause you really should be more clear about these things. I'm easily confused.

OWL WEDNESDAY
If you've been following my Twitter account at all... then you will have seen the beautiful genius that happened when I came up with THIS idea for Owl Wednesday!

 Yeah, dude, they're owl measuring cups. HOW SWEET?!

Know It Owl MUG!


Owl Cutting Board
So, I'm not really excited about the Cut Above the Nest cutting board, but it's just to show how really OWLY your place could get... if no one reigned you in.


Hoot Turned on the LAMP
Pretty darned cool.
Owlet kitchen timer
Okay, I'm sorry, but that one is just simply irresistible! It's a baby owl! and it comes in red, and yellow and this blue! LOOK AT THE BIG HEAD!!! ooooh my gosh it's so cute I could DIE! (throw-back to Despicable Me "it's so fluffy I could die")

Salt and Pepper shakers

And that's all for now, I hope that you enjoy seeing all of these Owl related items. I will, ofcourse, post more next Wednesday! I wonder if my love for owls will fade with the fad? It'll be an interesting test. Owls are pretty cool though... btw, all of these are from Modcloth.com.
