Headache the Size of Manhattan!


After reading your suggestions (thank you!!) the blog will stay.... exactly the same only with more outfit posts!!
  • A really fun and delicious surprise to come for the blog. One clue? It has to do with my outfits!!
  • A funny "secret" I just had to share with you guys, it came up over the weekend at a dinner party. Anyway, when I was a little girl, I used to play Super Nintendo Mario almost everyday and whenever I couldn't pass a level I would literally bite my controller and throw it down. LOL....
  • Still getting over a semi-head cold. :[ Let me tell you, I've had a headache the size of Manhattan for the last 3 days.....
  • I plan on sharing photos of my Aunt's lab/greyhound mix soon. They came over for the weekend and he is just the sweetest dog!! Sweety and him "kiss" and chase each other around lol..
  • Follow me on Twitter if you like.
  • Thank you Raya of OcularOasis for interviewing me here!! :]
Above I am in casual wear, as I have been with a cold and under the weather, comfortable is my favorite "go to" look on days like these....

Sweater: Vintage. Leggings: Macy's Juniors. Leg Warmers: eBay. Nail Lacquer: OPI Boris and Natasha.

PS: I have to confess that when I was young I never played Nintendo or Mario but ALWAYS bugged my uncle to play so I could WATCH him beat all the monsters. I liked watching...lol and it used to be one of my favorite past-time. heheh! I was more of a Sega/ Sonic girl, that I played...a lot.

Sleepdreamdress said...

The Voguette said...

i totally have boris & natasha. its a fabulous color. im currently sporting "party in my cabana" from the south beach collection. lol.

and by interview - i mean we could come up with questions for each other - and then print out the sheet and fill out the questions and then scan the sheet - i dont know if that was clear or not - i think i might have made you more confused....

Marcella said...

Wearing all black makes you look even taller!! <3

Petra said...

I was addicted to Nintendo 64 Mario Cart, and would get quite competitive with others when they would beat my time. I think video games bring out the worst in us sometimes haha. Hope you feel better soon : )

Taylor said...

I get really bad migraines alll the time and the only thing that works for me is excedrin. I'm not sure if it would help, but who knows..I think it has something to do with the caffeine in it.

I can imagine you (I have a visual recall of your kiddo pictures which you once posted) -- TOO CUTE despite the Nintendo-rage! heehee.. I too was a Super Mario addict! And I even would instinctively JUMP each time I made Mario jump over stuff in the hopes that he wouldnt fall off!!
