Why is it that working for AA puts me more in a compulsive mood than shopping does on a regular day? There is something about working there, being around clothes all day, and seeing other employees buy shit that makes me buy things I've been eyeing. This is not good! I need to control my spending habits a little bit better, especially if I plan on happy shopping on my trip to L.A. and Chicago. I also tryed on the football cropped tee that i wanted in my last blog and let's just say I don't need it. Its not flattering or cute on. I did order the ruffled sheer jersey white shirt and got the black oversized cardigan today. The mocassin purchase is coming up. Hopefully i can get them before it gets cold. I'm also getting the zebra print swimsuit for my upcoming birthday next week. I cannot wait to wear it!
Here's some stuff at work I bought today and yesterday.

Some things I want to buy this week!
First time ever! 2 blogs in one day! I'm on the roll. I guess I have a lot to talk about...My winter work wardrobe,I'm thinking I would be into more cardigans, bodysuits, colored frames, backseam tights, fringe boots, and more red. I'm definitely getting another pair of backseam tights in navy from AA. I'll be going to L.A.( for the 1st time!) and Chicago next month! I'm pretty excited to do some shopping and see the boys in L.A. I also haven't seen my sister since May, so thats the only reason i'll be in the Chi. More importantly i paid for my plane ticket myself. It makes me proud that I didn't spend it on materialistic things, but instead on an experience. Here are some things I'm craving right now!
I would get this is black, wear it with full skirts, and high waist jeans.

Some things I bought in this week!
Payday puts me in an amazing mood, especially since buying tickets for L.A. and Chicago on my own. It feels good. It also feels good when you're in love with some Levi shorts that you magically receive an additional 50% off the sale price.Here are some things i bought this week. I couldnt find the underwear and exact shorts i bought online..but these are pretty close! I broke my heart bamboo earrings yesterday and i needed another pair. I went to the local hair store and got the heart and regular bamboo. I was so tempted to get the doorknockers!
I bought a pair similar to these with satin piping along the bottom and seams. they are so much tighter and has a higher waist.
Yea I had to get another pair.
I wore the yellow/baby blue one 3 days in a row. I love it! and i had to get another.I chose the grass/orchid color scheme instead of the red/pink. I'm starting to rethink it.

Fashionable man
Let's keep this fashionable men trend thing up and keep myself from forgetting that this is a male and female friendly blog. Time to cater boys for a while to make up for how many blogs about the girls i made! I wanted to make another fashionable man blog post today. Yesterday was Jaimie Burke. Today let's go for Kanye West. Yes we all know he is great, so fashionable, so cocky, and so talented. I needed to feature him because he does dress amazingly and you will never catch him looking like he just rolled out of bed. He is the accessory king! I'm glad he shows boys that it is ok to accessorize. Accessories can pull an outfit together. He is the only person (in my opinion) that can do it(for now). Lots of men look up to him. He applauds talented hip hop artists, loves fashionable girls, into politics, loves London, sets trends, and is from the north( ok Chicago is midwest). He is my dream boyfriend. Sigh! We love Li' Kanye!

Something for the menz...
Last night while I was thinking about everything wrong with life, I started to think of my favorite fashionable men. Obvious choice, Shia Labeuof, which is fine but let's take the focus off of him for now. There is Terrence Howard, Pharell, Cool Kids, and then Jaimie Burke. Yes Jaimie! He is lead singer of Bloody Social. He was discovered while performing and ended up landing a job with Calvin Klein as their lead model for the Fall 2007 ads. He has an angelic face, tattoos, piercings, long hair, and beautiful dark eyes.. Just my type of guy! His style is a mix of indie rocker and hippie.
Ok ENOUGH! He is just too hot for words. Please be my boyfriend?
P.S. We need more fashionable cute young boys in this world!

Teyana Taylor
Teyana Taylor is my new girlfriend. What do I have to do to be like her? I mean seriously! I've always been envious of girls who can pull off the tomboy look. Teyana does it amazingly with hints of femininity. As she says, " I'm so New York, I'm so damn Harlem." She's so young, so cute, and her personality is bigger than life. Though I do hate that I first saw her on My Sweet 16. Instead of asking for a new Corvette, she asked for a gold plated bike.YES! She is also the young protege' of Pharell. It also doesn't help that her song," Traffic Stop" is so deliciously addictive. She has my dream afro and she's 17. She makes me want to move to Harlem tommorow. Loves it! Check her out.
I will be ordering my sewing machine tommorow and buying fabrics! Have a Goodnight!
