March Wish List


1. Poisonberry Opaque Lime Crime Lipstick
I have been looking for some new lipsticks to add to my rotation.  I think this purple hue is really pretty.

2. Hot Pink Moto Jacket
I've been searching for a pink moto jacket for months and haven't been able to find one in my price range.  Now that I can wear kid's clothes, I found this one in my price range.  Finally, being small is paying off.

3. Shredded Boyfriend Overalls
I am so happy that overalls are back in style.  I had several pairs growing up and they were so comfortable to wear.  I can't wait to buy these.

4. Sequin Cropped Tee
I don't know why but, I am really into sequins right now.  Sequin tops, dresses and even pants.  I can't get enough.

5. Polka Dot Skinny Jeans
 I've been wanting polka dot jeans since I saw a pair at Express.  But, they are $88.  I found these at Justice (yes, another kid's store) for $14.

6. Faux Leather Pencil Skirt
A black pencil skirt is a must have for any wardrobe.  I love the look of this faux leather one.

7. Red Vintage Wide Brim Hat
I love hats.  My love affair with hats started when I was little and watched Blossom (If that doesn't show my age then I don't know what will).  Remember, Blossom's best friend Six.  She always wore hats and I thought that was the coolest.

8. Long Lavender Wig
Pastels are in for SS14 and that goes for hair as well.  This is a such a pretty color and would be a great addition to my collection of wigs.
    
Since my birthday is next Tuesday, this is kind of my birthday wishlist.  I already bought a few things on this list.  I guess I failed to not spend any money in March.  Oh well, I couldn't pass up all the sales and it is my birthday.  I deserve more presents even if I buy them myself.

Thanks for reading and have a great week!

My Life Lately {In Pictures} Week 8


When the weather warms up, this is the spot where my dogs usually hang out.  On this day, our neighbors were having a bunch of trees cut down so they were checking it out.


Our bipolar weather.  Earlier in the day, it looked like this.


A few hours later, it looked like this.


My dogs lying on their pillows in front of the heater while I blog in the office.


My husband left me this message on our living room magnetic board.  He is so sweet.


I found these beautiful strawberries at Aldi the other day.  They were super delicious too.

I did some early birthday day shopping for myself this week.  Next week, I'll have tons of pictures of my new arrivals.  It is like Christmas again.  I hope you'll come back to see what I got.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and thanks for reading!

70 cm Long Wavy Red eBay Wig Review {Seller Wig Wiggiw}

I am finally doing a review for the long wavy red wig that I wore on my Valentine's Day post.

I purchased the wig from the eBay seller Wiggiw and it is no longer available.  However, I did find a listing from another seller for the exact same wig.  



I can't vouch for this seller and don't know that it is exactly the same wig.  The stock images are the same.  So if you plan on purchasing it from the other seller, be aware that you might not be getting the same wig that I purchased.

I paid $17.98 for my wig with free shipping.  The above listing is slightly cheaper.

Here is a close up stock image.



Here I am wearing the wig.

Review:

This is, by far, my favorite wig.  I use to dye my hair this color a few years ago and it was really hard to keep it this red.  I think this color red suits me and I am glad that I can have it whenever I want without the maintenance that goes along with having red hair.  

This is another synthetic wig.  It isn't as soft as some of my other wigs, but it doesn't matter to me.  It does tangle easy and as you can tell in the pictures, I need to detangle this wig.   

Free shipping from China will take 3 to 4 weeks to arrive in the US.  If you want it faster than that, there are listings for wigs that say US warehouse and will ship very quickly.  You will pay more for the wig though.

I highly recommend this wig and the seller wiggiw and will buy from them again.

I hope you found this review helpful.  You can find my other wig reviews here and here.  Thanks for reading!

My husband is my best friend.  Seriously.  I know a lot of people say that but, he truly is.  We have so many common interests.  One of the things we have in common is fashion.  We even watch Project Runway together (he hates Zac Posen).  He is into fashion.  I thought it was time to show off one of his outfits.  He isn't afraid to push the envelope (hence the pink hat).  He is into bright colors just like me.  So once a month, I will show you what he is wearing and I hope you enjoy.

Thanks for reading!

Bleached Cut Off Jean Shorts ~ Gabe's

Black Hose ~ Forever 21

Black Combat Boots ~ Charlotte Russe

Lipstick ~ Lime Crime Lipstick in Countessa Fluorescent


A long time ago, a coworker gave me this Led Zeppelin T-shirt because I was looking for a vintage band t-shirt to deconstruct.  I never wore it out until now.  Can you believe that? That was probably 10 years ago.  I couldn't bare to get rid of it.  I thought I might wear it some day and I just did.

This is the jacket I just received from GoJane a couple weeks ago.  It is slightly bigger than I expected, but I really like it.  I'll definitely buy more jackets from them.  They have such a great selection.

Have a nice day and thanks for reading!

Neon Yellow Jeans ~ K-Mart (kid's section)

Black Combat Boots ~ Charlotte Russe

Pink Beanie ~ eBay

Sunglasses ~ JcPenney

Lipstick ~ Lime Crime Lipstick in Countessa Fluorescent


When I was getting ready to take the photos for this outfit, some guy that was driving by nearly wrecked starring me down.  I mean his head was completely turned looking behind him as he was driving.  I have never had someone stare so hard at me.  I guess it was because no body in my area is brave enough to pull off a neon outfit like this.

I am super into neons right now.  I can't get enough of them.  I want every color in every article of clothing.  I hope you like neons because you will be seeing a lot of different neon looks from me in the future.

Happy hump day and thanks for reading!
