Tiempo Pasado Tiempo Perdido...

...the title has nothing to do with my post, I just like the song and I couldn't think of a better title ha ha.
Finally Friday, this week went by sooo fast. Actually, every day goes by so fast lately and I know exactly why! My dear husband is deploying to Afghanistan in March :( UGHHH I can't even start thinking about it. They were supposed to leave in Nov-Dec, then it kept getting pushed back and we have no clue when exactely they're leaving. So it basically will be a short notice thing. This sucks! I have been successfully ignoring every though of it! I don't want him to leave! THAT'S it. We have both been really stressed out about all this....sigh.
Anyhow, today I am posting my outfit from yesterday and today. I just didn't have time to post last night, I was too busy going to bed at 8:30 LOL

I remember the first time I showed up at work with a skirt my coworker said: You know you don't have to dress up here right?! I told her that I knew that, and that I like wearing skirts it's not dress up, I am a woman after all LOL

PHD-Polish Hording Disorder...

This weekend at the mall, browsing for new nail polish colors at Sephora, my husband asked me if I didn't have enough nail polish already :-D NOOOOO I don't! What a freak....tzz, can't believe he would ask me such a question. That is like asking if I have enough shoes or clothes. I guess Men will never understand :)
Long story short, here are the newest additions to my nail polish collections :)

Revlon Blue Mosaic

 3 coats

OPI-Iris I was thinner

 2 coats (this is my new favorite) so pretty!

Recently, I ordered a dress off ebay. I thought it was cute and a great dress for new years. It was only 8 Dollars with shipping, so I thought, hmm why not!
I gotta admit, it is a little short. But I'm thinking with black tights should be doable. What do you think?

Well Ladies, off to bed I go. Tomorrow is friday!! Finally!
Nite nite:

Glitter and Sequin

yes, who doesn't love glitter and sequin? During my lunch I sometimes venture out of the office just to get some fresh air or bargains LOL. Geez I am close to the Supermall, Ikea, TJ Maxx, Target...

Last week I went to Target for some polish and I've seen the cutest sequin bag. I didn't buy it, for whatever reason. Well Sunday I thought I just go to the Target near my house, turns out that purse sold out in that color :( I went on the Target website and there was only one store that carried that purse in that particular color: The target by my office. Limited quantities, that's what it said. So during lunch today I drove to Target and they had one left!!!!!!!! :D I snagged it as fast as I could. Gold sequin satchel for $24.99?? Hells yeah. Monday can't start any better :) Check out this beauty. Not bad for that price, No?

 lovely passenger :)

Furthermore I bought some nail polish. I was looking for the Revlon ones FOREVER. They're sold out everywhere. From left to right:

OPI Crown me already

Revlon Blue Mosaic

Revlon Facet of Fuchsia 

 Of course I had to try the OPI Crown me already ASAP. I was dying to get my hands on it. sooo pretty and glittery. It's not like any other glitter top coat. This is really dense. This is 3 coats of OPI Crown me already and on my ringfinger 2 coats of Revlon Facet of Fuchsia.

 So pretty, I can't stop looking at my nails :)

Time for bed. Well not really. It's only 9 pm in Seattle, but since I get up at 5:30 every morning, 9pm is not too bad :-D 

Nite Nite,

Bring me my boots!

I feel like its Winter, well maybe not Winter, but late fall! I'm wearing clothes that I would normally wear during winter months. =(

Dress - Marshalls

Belt - Alley Kat

buckle boots - Macy's

Knee Socks - Macy's

Teddy Necklace - Tally Weijl

And this is my Coastal Scents eye that I did today matching this dress ha.
I used pinks and purples out of the CS 88 matte Palette. Cute I think.

All I see is purple HELP haha =D
I got a new book today in the mail, "Le voyage d'Hector ou la recherche du bonheur" or in English "Hector and the search for happiness". I heard its a really good book.
Description:
Can we learn how to be happy? Hector is a successful young psychiatrist. He's very good at treating patients in real need of his help. But many people he sees have no health problems: they're just deeply dissatisfied with their lives. Hector can't do much for them, and it's beginning to depress him. So when a patient tells him he looks in need of a holiday, Hector decides to set off round the world to find out what makes people everywhere happy (and sad), and whether there is such a thing as the secret of true happiness.

Sounds great,right? One of the teachers I work with recommended it to me. I'm reading it in original language, which is french, just for the fun of it lol. Just kidding, I bought it in french so I can get used to speaking french again.
Well hope you guys have a great weekend.
xoxo,
