Hello all you bloggers!
Please give me a warm welcome and a high-five for my first blog ever! YAY!
I finally decided to give blogging a try since I am a blog reader and have been having such a crazy life that I decided to write it all down and perhaps somewhere out there in this big big world someone can use it for themselves.
Wait a minute I haven't introduced myself...how rude of me.
My name is Bridget or Brii however you please I have many nicknames that many friends and family have decided to give me. I am Hispanic and proud of it!
Few things I love are: SHOES (they make everything better), Clothes, Jewelry, typical shopaholic (healthy kind) and girly things. I also love food! I am very open to try any new foods so if you have any recipes please let me know! I'm always dying to try to make something new, I'm not much of an eating out person.
There's something I want to talk about now more for my sake to clear my head and not allow myself to go nuts..this week has been hell week x infinity.
To start off with this past Sunday I got into a car accident with my brand new baby *tear*. Thank God everyone was OK, just a minor fender bender that really fended my bender (does that make any sense? LOL)
So on top of being car-less, I have now another Bill to add on top of my never-ending pile of bills. Which made me very very sad :(.
This week is also training week! yay..but not really. So my mornings start at 7am (if I want to speed out of here without much prep time (which means I've been walking around looking a hot hot mess...crampin' my style) & end at around 1 am. So I haven't gotten much sleep, which brings me to another points-- I LOVE SLEEPING! So you can already imagine, I've been Ms. CrankyPants err'day all day.
So after 3 days of living, breathing, thinking hell, My best friend Paige and I decided to go to the mall. Paige had an errand to run and I simply just wanted to get out. Of course being a shopaholic and all...going to the mall may not be the best idea for me but nevertheless I went. As we walked into Forever21 or XXI (whichever it is now) I knew I was in trouble.
I absolutely loved the layout of this XXI store, super organized unlike others I've been too. My eyes fell on this cute Burgandy/Brick red Skinnys that I have been dying to add into my fall wardrobe but never managed to find the right one. I decided to try them on...mind you I was upset and being upset makes me want to buy things as comfort.
Thus I liked them and decided to buy since they were on sale anyways. As I walked out I saw these CUTE CUTE CUTE leopard print platform heels that I have been looking everywhere for. I have been dying for months now to add a pair of leopard print shoes to my wardrobe but always found shoes that were made of the cowhide-esque stuff and I HATE those. So I never bought them, but these were polyester and when I tried them on it felt like I still had my sandals on.
Paige, being the best friend that she is, convinced me to buy them. Her reason being its been a shitty week and summer and I deserved to splurge just a tiny bit. That's all the convincing I needed. and alas! I am quite happy and feel a bit better when I brought my new babies home.
I know many of you are probably judging and analyzing me due to me admitting I shop to comfort myself. What must be understood is that I am a conscious shopper, and as much as I may desperately want a pair of shoes, pants, etc. I really don't go through with buying it unless I have a friend convince me I should. I am a college student so therefore on a college-student budget. So need not worry I have a handle on my spending.
Back to my XXI Haul, I bought these two new babies without even thinking of what to pair it up with to make an outfit but as I laid it out I realized they MATCHED! which makes my life easier since now I don't have to search my closet as much to figure out what would work.
Don't they look fabulous? Just add a Black off the shoulder (fitted) shirt throw on some glass print earrings and walk out the door.
Well my lovely readers (if there are any), I must end this post since I have so much to do in so little time. Until next time!
Much love & harmony :)
