Went to cheer on the Nevada boys at the Kraft bowl but we did some serious shopping the day before. I make it my mission while in the city to oggle and fondle as many "designer" duds as possible. I tried on Prada, Carolina Herrera, Burberry, & Oscar to name a few. I stroked the Dolce and Dior as well!<br />
<br />
The point of my ramblings is that when I made my mandatory pilgrimage to Chanel, I was seriously confused : was I in a mid 80's timewarp? Bleach splashed faded jeans? EWWWW. The saleslady told us that it was inspired by St. Tropez - really? Who are they fooling? The Gossip Girl crowd likes this??<br />
<br />
Really, nothing there I wanted to touch or swoon over. Shoes only so so, (quilted purses pretty yes, but not my thing as I'm rough on my bags. I'm a clothes horse for certain.).<br />
<br />
Really I think Mr. Lagerfeld needs to eat more as his brain might be rotting away, leading to misjudging what is beautiful. <br />
<br />
Oh Coco would be disgusted.<br />

Yes Rhoda is not all that bad but Mary takes center stage. Oh my gosh. I've gotten old. I have lines. And flab. I want to hide behind the Marys of the world.<br />

When I went to get my grey hairs covered a few days ago I was the only woman at salon not engaging in a simultaneous ristalyne party but goodness knows I should have. Marionette lines. Small tired eyes. Major lines in forehead. Damn it. Damn it.

I've done all the excercise and official dieting I can muster: personal trainers, killer boot camps, running half marathons, low carb, Weight Watchers, Cleanse, no animals, no dairy, Slim Fast and on and on.<br />
Ugh.<br />
<strong>Done with it.</strong> <br />
I'm going native. I'm going basic. I'm going simple healthy.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A great point so far is that people complain that they dont have the time to plan for and prepare healthy food and I'm very guilty of this lament myself as I'm often so stinkin' TIRED!

The bouncing thoughts and chatter makes my life exhausting I tell ya! This mind o' mine is always on forethought mode - planning what needs to be done next, what to do, where I have to be, etc. <br />
<br />
My goal for this Winter: Relax. Deep cleansing breaths.....let the taming begin.<br />

Odd thing is that I am for some reason mentally challenged when it comes to learning numbers past 100 and telling time in military style. The instructor wants us really to learn this. So here I am at a stalemate. Class in 1.5 hours. I try to studio but instead start perusing Flickr for photos Italia:<br />

I'm not sure what to think actually as my instinct say love as it's leopard and it's a shoe but I have to now view all potential purchases in terms of how many books would that be for college (less than a year away for Morgan and my guess is $595 would buy at least 3 books). Because these are way overpriced and knowledge is power and fashion is fleeting and fickle, and in this case a bit tacky, I will deem these FUGLY - as in the website www: gofugyourself.com. <br />
<br />
Go check out/chuckle at the others at UGG website....and after that, put aside $ for books. <br />

Now this is odd I realize, but I snapped pictures of screen here and there as I wanted to post a Tony Curtis tribute. (I discovered that viewing a movie with long lens of camera is even better than with glasses! )Wow I must be getting old. Anyway... I dig this picture: I realize its pixelated and blue but I find it almost arty in that really it could be a photo on canvas....just sayin. I dig it.<br />

Changing leaves in my own yard. They know it's Fall. How come Mother Nature's weather division does not?!<br />
<br />
So with the change of season, I feel it may be time for a change on the head. I've been growing out my Limpy locks (the opposite of Goldie locks) and I think I'm looking like one of those women foolishly trying to hang onto their girlish long hair. Women with lush hair can pull it off. I of the thin scraggy tresses can not.<br />
<br />
Morgan says don't as I'll freak out. I however think I must soldier on with my mission. I'm thinking a Tori Spelling (though I detest her but like her hair) type style but just right above shoulders so I can curl it into a cute flapper bob. Bangs or no bangs? Layers no layers? A bob can go so wrong so quickly....<br />
<br />
I bought a magazine showing bobs aplenty and will get right on an inspiration board for the quest for perfect, non frumpy hair.<br />
<br />
Any ideas or input greatly appreciated.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It's now officially Fall and I am in the mood to nest and plan and create and decorate. I want to carefully log all my current inspirations and crafty outcomes. For this, I'm toying with jumping from tumblr to Blogspot. So I'm testing it and so far it seems easier and cleaner.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">On the immediate agenda of Fall leaf turning...plan Halloweekend festivites and begin to decorate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Above is my inspiration for this year's Halloween Costume. Corset? Check! Flowers....uhhh not yet. Makeup....need to go to MAC for a whiter shade o pale. <strong>Must get busy!</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Tomorrow's mission towards a Fallier feel? (Since it was 90 today, it oddly feels like Summer) Break out the Fall decor boxes!!! Will also troll Etsy as I'm certain there is a crafty someone out there that makes satin flowers just for people who want Day o' the Dead costumes like above.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So with that, I shall retire, while visions of pumpkins dance in my head.</span><br />
