Make This a Chapter in My Book...

Growing up, everytime I had a good, philosphical thought, I'd shout "Make this a chapter in my book!" Well, it certainly is not a book, but it's close enough.

I've decided to document via blog all the random concepts I've come up with over the years. Having turned 21 not more than two weeks ago, I'm pretty much ready to take on the world - blog style. I really tried to fit in to the "my boyfriend dumped me, and I got a great deal on this plus I just sewed an entire wardrobe" world of blogging, but that didn't go over too well.

These posts are loaded with random (sometimes useless) facts that you can hopefully gather inspiration from! ...or atleast, a conversation starter or two. Give it a read, so that you won't be tempted to judge the "proverbial" book by its cover... or in this case, the "proverbial" blog by its URL.

Chapter 9: Discount Retailers - God's Gift to Man... Ok fine, Women

Last post was certainly a little wordy, I know, so I'll keep this one light.

Can I just say "OMG Discount Retailers"!? It's like stealing name brand candy from a cheap baby! Pardon my sucky analogy...

The company Christmas party is coming up shortly and since I'm not even joking when I say I'll be the youngest one there, I must pull out all the stops.
I decided on this adorable silky deep-pink cocktail dress from the Limited. Pretty much should be every working girl's favorite store.

Because I'd rather not look like the company whore, I've decided to go with some sort of furry jacket with 3/4 sleeves. But problem is, I totally cannot wear that all night! Not to mention my legs are completely bare...
So i hit up marshalls... Bought some printed/fishnet tights for $5! ...as opposed to the typical $10. But hey, it's not like tights have expiration dates so hell yes i'll take that deal!


I also found these shoes (well, heels.... but is there really any other kind of shoe?!). Ok, so i cannot find a picture of "these shoes" but description: Lace on metallic orange-ish (?), peep toe, 3.5 in. Basically, i'm not sure if it's a match or if I'll just go with some plain black patent leather heels....


Finally, I'll need to find a wristlet that will hold more than a credit card. Common' people! We're women of the 21st century! We have BLACKBERRY'S we need to keep on us at all times!

Anyways, wish me luck :D

    I adore that dress! Gorgeous, but damn I hate work Christmas parties, especially when you're the youngest one there.

    Have fun!

My Book

  • Why?
      Why you ask? Not sure. I've always wanted to write down the randomness I think of, and even more so I would love to see who agrees with me and the other alternatives to my ideas.
  • Because?
      Because you ask? Because I want to know what YOU think! Do you agree? Can you relate? Am I totally off the deep-end? Please, feel free to post your comments and opinions; and, who knows, maybe I'll feature them in the next blog post!
