Valentine's Day Pussy Bow

I looked like a little old lady of the 1960's today in my heart-printed pussy bow and glasses.  Advanced Style is rubbing off on me.

I love this blue blouse - Those are hearts, not polka dots. I of course found it at a thrift store in Arkansas. It has those wonderful Made in U.S.A. tags you don't see much anymore.

I got the new TOMS ballet flats in pink suede and they are really sturdy and fantastic bicycle riding shoes. They have a really serious sole for ballet flats. Non-skid supreme.

Yes, I had to ride my girlfriend, Kate the Bicycle, for Valentine's Day. The pink tires had to be out for the holiday!

Tonight we ate a heart shaped pizza and Matt passed out super-early. We stayed out late last night at out weekly The Bachelor watch party. Yes! We totally hate Courtney and we're disenchanted with Ben, but we can't stop watching. Can. Not. Stop!

Bike NYC Pics

I'm trying to do some shoe-detail pics for this bike style blogger. Here we go!

I saw these mirrors behind the flowers and flipped a u-turn real quick-like!

My husband has on a devastatingly dorky sock/shoe combo. I begged him to let me know how he goes out like that. Otherwise, his outfit is fine, but he dresses really nice and that nice stuff is in the bag. Sad. There's nothing better than seeing people in fancy business clothes on bicycles.

In New York City, we refer to Henderson State University as the "Harvard of the South."

I took this while I was sitting at a stop light. People are literally living in Kirstie Alley's big hair. This is so sad! I'm so happy I don't live in this sort of building. Trashy adverts are actually scarce on my block. Thank goodness! This was really disturbing.

You see peeps all the time giving interviews... this was at 8:30am.... I didn't recognize the person on camera so it was a bust. It's still funny that this is what I go to work looking at.

This is blurry because I was in motion, but I love this Broadway pedestrian Greenway & bicycle lane stuff. I just love it.

Here are my outfits from earlier in the week -
Monday there was a wild monsoon so I didn't ride, so I wore a short skirt. This is an Arkansas Thrift dress that I got chopped to be short. Fingertip length if you need specifics.

This dress is awesome especially because I probably didn't give $2 for it. I paid MUCH MORE In getting it trimmed & hemmed.

This is obviously a bicycle-riding look:

My friend Emily said "You have GOT to be the only person I know who goes to Charlotte Russe to look for work clothes!" But it's true! This summer I'm buying cheap shit only! This dress was $24 and I had a 25% off coupon. Summer of saving money!

Riding in a DRESS!

I did it! It felt awesome. Thank god I wore panties. Had some close calls. I'm going to buy this 3 pack of bicycle shorts.

This is my 2nd pair of Gold Glitter TOMS. They are so awesome. They look special and feel like slippers. My dress is from Target in Kansas and the belt is H&M and I put a binder clip on the loose-end part.

A cute bicycle girl stopped and ask me a directions question! I don't think I was that helpful, but I'm glad she stopped and asked.

I had my 1-month anniversary at my new job and actually did my first graphic job there. I've done website mock-ups but this was a for-production "hang tag" for an infinity scarf we are producing. I'm happy that it only took the afternoon and I was able to leave on-time and several people were pleased that I could assist in this way. I'm trying to be a chillaxed receptionist. I bet it doesn't last...
