Hey Hey Hey, long time no talk (or write, I guess in this case).

So I thought that I'd do something that I like reading on other people's blogs.... slightly unoriginal but hey it's all good :)

So here are my INS and OUTS for this week.

INS:
*the bright sunny weather that we have been having the last 3 or 4 days!! Amazing! Spring has taken awhile to come, but fingers crossed it might finally be here.
*getting tons of wedding list items checked off!! Only a few more weeks.
*The nail polish I am currently wearing....love! It's China Glazes Strawberry Fields.... so bright and sunny feeling.
*black skinny jeans.... so comfy and so cute. Not too dressy but feels more dressy than blue jeans.
*Body Flow and Body Pump (two classes that I take at my local Goodlife)..... so amazing, they have transformed my body. And they are both really enjoyable :)

OUTS:
*it's supposed to rain for the next 5 days :( so sad....
*wedding stress... it's not that bad... but my head feels like it's spinning some times with all the extra little things.... that is where Body flow comes in (it's a combo of yoga, pilates)
*hmmm, I think that's it! YAY! more ins than outs, that's awesome!

Have a stellar Thursday!!

AHHH ok... I have not forgotten about you.....

I just feel that I have nothing to write about.... hmmm... I probably have more than I think. I haven't been taking outfit photos... and I would like to. Fingers crossed I can find time to do it. I have to be more disciplined... yes this is true, in more areas than just taking outfit photos... or even writing a post.
ok so lets get you up to speed on what's being happening around here....

*wedding planning.... my dress is bought (oooo.... so not what I had in mind but I LOVE it).
*reading wedding blogs... here are two of my favourite (you know just in case you too are in this planning stage...yay!) Style Me Pretty and Ruffled.
*working part time (blah, but it pays the bills and so therefore completely important).
*being a full time mama..... my little bean (that's been his nickname since before he was born) is almost 4 can't believe how fast time flies.
*doing other stuff that needs to get done before the wedding.... booking the honeymoon (look out Iceland here we come!!), premarital counseling, taking the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University class etc...
*trying to figure out colours for the cabinets and flooring and what not for the house (my mind simply can't grasp this at the moment... I am the type of person that need to be in the room, and since the house isn't built yet... well that just isn't possible).

So you know when someone is pregnant they have baby brain, well I am pretty sure that this never really goes away... so mix the leftover baby brain with Wedding brain and you get me. My mind is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. I am pretty sure I've been caught talking to myself a few times at work... and the grocery store and.... let's face it, well probably everywhere.

So I guess I had more to say than I thought.
til the next time...... hopefully it is sooner rather than later... and hopefully there are some photos. Again fingers crossed.

19ish/30?

I wore this for running errands, Nov 26/10.

Thermal: Old Navy (not in my 30/30)

Flannel Shirt: Old Navy

Jeggings: Hollister

Boots: Uggs (not in my 30/30)

OK so confession time..... I made it until day 18.... but because it has gotten so cold in the last week (and I managed to not include any heavy sweaters in my 30/30) I have broken the cardinal rule of the 30/30... I have worn things that weren't in my 30/30 wardrobe. Please forgive me 30/30 gods.... for I have sinned and even though I am now confessing it, it's not something that I am going to stop doing.

Some how every year I forget how cold it can get here in Canada... yeah, I know... duh it' Canada. I did grow up here so it is something that I should be used to. But I am the type of person that gets cold when the sun goes behind a cloud...lol. So in the winter I end up layering 2 to 3 shirts... and I am never not wearing thick wool socks. And when picking out my 30/30 items it didn't even cross my mind that it was going to be during late Nov and early Dec which= oh so cold. So while I am going to try to stick as much as I can to my 30/30 items.... there might be a few extras.

Yay! for Saturday... one of my favourite days :)

15/30

(pardon the horrific hair)

I am getting braver with my choices in tight colours..... maroon is probably the most daring that I have ever been.... I thought I'd start my week off creative :)

I wore this to work on monday and to go and get my ring sized, now that it's not as loose I'm not afraid that I am going to lose it. My lovely fiance had it hand made for me.... it's not different, in fact it's very tradional... but that's what I like... and the fact that he went and choose the diamond and then had it made exactly the way I wanted it makes it even more special to me. I'm a lucky girl.

14/30 (Nov 21/10)

Happy Thanksgiving to anyone in the US, I hope you week is full of family and fun.

This past Sunday was really dreary and rainy... I woke up late and had a son that was in a bit of a mood :( So that called for easy, yet still somewhat cute for church. And boy was this outfit ever easy it consisted of three items: a denim dress, black tights and my brogues.

I love dresses that help make getting dressed in a hurry easy. Maybe that should be my word for the 30/30 Challenge... "easy". As a mom I am always looking for outfits and pieces that are easy (easy to move in, easy to put together, easy to clean etc). And the challenge has helped make it easier to get dressed in the morning. You'd think that it'd make it harder... but lucky for me it's made it easier... why? Because I am not having to think as much about what I am going to wear. Maybe standing and looking at a closet full of clothes makes getting dressed in the morning harder, to many options... to many possibilities??
