Alicia Klein Taxi Wallet Review & *Giveaway* Ends 8/16

Thursday, August 9, 2012



I just love Alicia Klein!  They have such fashionable travel wallets and bags so that you can stay in style while you are on the go!  I especially love their Taxi Wallet!  This is the perfect thing to slip in your pocket so you don’t have to root through your luggage or purse.  Keep some cash, a license, a credit card, and a passport handy in it.  It’s a convenient thin size but it’s still big enough to hold all of your stuff. 


I received a Taxi Wallet from Alicia Klein and I am in love with the snap pouch for my change.  I am notorious for having change spill out when I am in a rush.  This keeps it from doing so.  I also love the interior security pocket which is where I keep my credit cards and drivers license.  The outside pocket is for receipts, tickets, and business cards.  It’s great because it’s a very organized wallet but it still keeps everything very simple!  And it is so soft and beautifully designed!

One winner will receive a Taxi Wallet of their own!!

I am SOOOO into Neon Colors {{Fashion}}



I've been seeing neon colors everywhere lately.  From shoes and bikinis to glasses and leggings.  Not only are they being worn at concerts, but on the street as an everyday trend.  I just think it's so bright and happy and it really can make you look more youthful when it comes to how you dress.  No one wants to look "frumpy", so even if you are wearing leggings and a plain tee, you can throw a neon headband, glasses, or even a neon tshirt on. 

Personally I love orange and pink neon.  Green and yellow can be a bit too much and can't go with everything.  Orange is more subtle.  And pink is just..well, pink! 

A lot of neon colors go hand in hand when it comes to color blocking as well.  You can show off two fashion trends in one!

What's your favorite neon color?

On/Off Relationships

Tuesday, August 7, 2012

Either you know someone who has been in one, or you are in one yourself.  On/Off Relationships are those relationships that seem to be up and down every other day.  You break up, get back together, break up, and then get back together.  But why do people do this?  Can we really not make up or minds?  Or do we just like the excitement?

When they can be okay...
Sometimes, two people are really serious about each other but they have some issues.  They take time apart in order to work on those issues, and then eventually get back together.  Sure, some people can work on things without breaking up, but a lot of people NEED  to have something missing from their life, in order for them to work at getting it back. 

When they aren't okay...
When your friends start telling you that they no longer want to hear about it, or when they know that you will be back with So and So in a matter of days, you know your behavior is getting out of control..make up your mind.  Stay with him and work through everything, or hti the road and move on.

A lot of times people are too used to something and can't imagine life without it.  So it's hard to make that final decision where you permanently walk away from someone.  If that sounds like you then just try and make your final decision and stick to it.  Don't get in the habit of forming on/off relationships because honestly, it's a hard habit to break, and you'll end up doing it again and again even if it's with a different partner!

How can you prevent your relationship from being like this?
In the beginning, discuss it and make an agreement with your partner that you will always work through stuff, and if you can't you can go your separate ways, but it won't be acceptable to throw around the terms "It's over" and "We're back on" like they aren't anything.

Do you know someone in an on/off relationship?  How do you deal with it?

LS Mens Clothing

Monday, August 6, 2012

LS Mens Clothing is a great place to go for men's clothing especially custom suits. You can keep your guy looking shiny, classy, and fabulous by sporting a beautiful custom tailored suit that will fit him perfectly.  There's a two week delivery deal and prices begin as low as $645! CBS even voted them one of the top 5 places for suits in New York!

If you have a wedding coming up that your guy will be in, whether he's the best man or the groom, he will be dressed to impressed.  And if he needs to snag that huge business deal, have him dress fancy to the meeting in a suit from LS Mens Clothing.  What you wear says a lot about yourself! Guys don’t have as much to do to their looks as women do.  They don’t wear makeup, a lot of jewelry, and they don’t have crazy hair styles, so their suit has to be the thing about their look that wins everyone over!

Quite an Eventful Weekend...

Lately, I kind of sort of put the Bucket List on hold just to get some projects around the house and yard done.  This weekend was quite eventful.  My boyfriend has been working on the shed which was atrocious before.  Well, not really, but it was quite dilapidated.  It was this ugly blue color and parts of it had rotted away.  So it took him a whole week of working away at it and finally yesterday he painted it and is finished for the most part.  One huge project off our checklist. 


On Saturday, we went to a Chihuahua birthday party for a friend.  I brought all 4 pups which was very fun.


So many chihuahuas!

Stella after being rained on
 Oh and Pixie had ANOTHER health scare...you remember, like the one where she had hair stuck in her butt! YEP! I blogged about it before and you can read that here.  Well, Saturday evening around 7 pm, I noticed Pixie was coughing a lot.  I always worry about Kennel Cough because she has had that a few times and she is also susceptible to upper respiratory illnesses.  So I figured maybe she had inhaled something as she usually does.  After all, when she was out in the yard that day I saw her face covered in cobwebs so she was up to no good at some point.  Well, I arrived home from a friends house around midnight only to find that Pixie had been coughing so much that there were little frothy piles of her spit all over the sofa cover. Poor girl!  I called the emergency vet and after informing it would be $100 to get her in, I took her in.  We were there till 2:30 am.  She has an upper respiratory issue, almost bronchitis so they gave her meds, and they also gave me her xrays on a disk which is pretty cool.  I'm so glad she's on meds!  She should be better in a few days, but shes's already doing great.  Poor little girl.  So $250 later...Pixie was okay, and I was exhausted.  I was like a walking zombie yesterday since I barely got any sleep.

Poor Little Pixie

My Birthday is coming up (August 13th) and I'm taking a half day Friday to get my hair cut and then I have Monday off.  Have no clue what all will go on over the weekend but I'll update you guys next week.

Oh and.. on a side note... Voting ends tomorrow for me to win a week long date with the Chevy Volt! Please if you haven't already, vote for me!!!  It only takes one second! I really appreciate it and will be able to blog about my date and all the things I do with the car.  I will be completing more bucket list items for sure!

How was your weekend and what are you up to for the rest of Summer?

Why I Love Hobo Bags


I love hobo bags like the Melie Bianco Reese Color Block Hobo Bag from Silvia's Handbags mainly because of how they just hang over your arm.  They aren't put together but they aren't sloppy.  They are comfy and relaxed. They can go with all different outfits and styles and I love how you can fit so much in them and root around fo rit, all while doing so in style.
