Recent Aquisitions: It's My Birthday Month, Yo

As mentioned last week...my birthday is coming up. If you're sick of hearing about my birthday, or May birthdays or Geminis...my apologies. In the past few weeks I've made a few purchases that are worth sharing with y'all...

Foam Roller
Yes. Due to intense amounts of CrossFit, a foam roller has turned into a necessity. Roll out those sore hammies, that achy back, those tight calves, whatever. It's pretty amazing for all of you who hit the gym or have sore muscles!

















BB Dakota Azure Dress
It's killing me that I can't find a photo of this dress online because it's so damn cute. I paid about $75 at a local Charlotte boutique, Boris & Natasha, and have never gotten so many compliments on the color of a dress. Such a pretty bright blue! Here's a fairly crappy picture of the bodice...


Consignment shopping: DVF scores
There must be a few women in Charlotte tire of their Diane Von Furstenberg dresses faster than I tire of drama on the CW. However, their castaways are my gain and I've scored two DVF dresses in the past two months (from Monarch and J.T. Posh, if you're ever in Charlotte!). One is an adorable silk blend cowl neck and the other a classic short sleeved wrap dress. While I'm sure they aren't from this season (or even last season), they still fit beautifully and the cut is classic. What did we learn today? Check your consignment shops, ladies.

DVF Lush Flip Flops
Speaking of consignment shopping, I picked up these brand new DVF Lush rubber flip flops from J.T. Posh, too! While the flips were $32, I had a credit from some goods I had sold here so they were, essentially, free! Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

BTW - these run a teeny bit small, normally I wear a 7.5-8 and the 8 fits just fine albeit more like a 7.5.

What about you? Any recent acquisitions?

    Cubicle to Cocktails: Lace Escape

    Hello there!

    Today's CTC edition features an adorable lacy tank from BB Dakota - who has been turning out all sorts of lacing, stitched looking garments as of late. I'm a fan of this tank as it's super versatile - I love it paired the J. Crack jacket for office time and straight up with the skinnies at night. Plus, those Tory Burch studded heels would look smashing with just about anything - and there on sale right now! Schwing!

    I can conjure up quite a few outfits to sport with this sweet little top. 

    What do we think friends? Are we loving lace?

    WTF Friday: Lindsay Lohan and One Fug Coat...


    Photo credit: Jun Sato/WireImage

    Oh Lindsay, Lindsay Lindsay...what the hell are you wearing? Are you auditioning for a role in Chicago? Perhaps you're attempting a ho-ribble gangsta look for Halloween?

    Remember the days when Lindsay dressed in lovely designer dresses and weighed more than 100 lbs.? That was a good look for her. Like this...good choice, Lohan.



    Also, to celebrate WTF Friday, I also wanted to showcase a frightening coat made by BB Dakota that I found on Modcloth.com. I usually like BB Dakota's offerings and I love Modcloth.com, but WTF? Are we in Dances With WolvesThe Albuquerque Coat looks like it came straight out of a Geronimo's gift shop. Oh, and the description said that this coat will be featured in Cosmo's December issue...thanks, but I'll pass.




    Happy Friday everyone! Any WTF Friday items to share?
