Comfy & Casual :: #whatiwore

I went out with my friend the other night and I really liked what I wore, but didn’t take a photo.  So, I recreated it virtually.

A few things I took into consideration when deciding what I wanted to wear.  1) it was raining about an hour before and I wasn’t sure if it would rain again throughout the night, 2) we were going to the movies so I needed to be covered up somewhat or I would freeze in the theatre, and 3) I wanted to be comfortable!

I’m loving nude shoes these days and am dying for some nude ballet flats.

I’m still new to Polyvore, but I just found out that they have templates, photos, text and more to make your collage super cool!  I kept wondering how people made such pretty collages.  🙂

My Project Life 365 is still alive and well!  I missed one day so far (I think), one day I used a screen capture for my photo and some of my photos are WAY lame, but I’m still chugging along. Here’s my May round-up…

I need some inspiration to get me excited about eating healthy again.  I ran across this book recently…

It looks good from what I can tell online, but I want to get out to the bookstore soon and flip through it.  I’m a really picky eater so I like to browse and see if I can find a few recipes that I like immediately.  I hate buying a book and only finding 1-2 recipes that I’d actually make, so if I can’t find a few good ones while just browsing it, it’s likely not a good investment for me.

Anthropologie has some flippin’ adorable, i-don’t-need-them-but-desperately-want-them, glass drink ware for sale right now.  I am particularly fond of these little cuties…

I’ve been switching handbags a lot lately, but because I’m not super organized like this chick…I never have all the stuff I want/need.  I usually only grab my wallet/wristlet, my phone, a chapstick and my camera.  No bueno!  I really want to take the time and have a pretty organized back like this one.

Christmas list — Workout wear

So I’ve already mentioned that I LOVE lululemon and since it’s getting really close to Christmas, I thought I’d put together a little wish list of lululemon staples.  FYI, if you only get one thing lululemon, I think it should be either the groove pant or the groove crop (not pictured)…they are must-haves!

lululemon staples

Pssst…for any elves looking for ideas for me…I already own the jacket & the pants, but I would love to have the bags, the racerback tank (black, sz 6) or the deep V bra in Paris Pink (sz 8)! 😉
