More of the same

It was Wednesday, the day before my friend's funeral, that I decided to journey to my "village" to pay my last respects to my dear friend Marie. And of course, in true "Fabulista" fashion, I had already chosen my outfit when the weather changed. It began to rain cats and dogs. Hmmm...slight problem if I was traveling alone and if I wasn't taking the bus. Haaa!!! Damn! You know I had to change what I had planned to wear. I settled for my fave jeggings, (yes you've seen it before!) an oversized tee (which you've also seen before), a white belt and a fab pair of white jelly wedges. How delish!

Over-sized tee: H&M, Hobo: Louis Vuitton, Jeggings: Express, Jelly Wedges: 2Go USA( IDK what this is, just loved the wedges for a wet day, paid just $6 for them.)
Get a better look of this wedge....

My son is Swaggerific!

A Few of Joaquin's summer coozies.....
Isn't he just fab!

Latest happenings

A lot has been happening since I posted my last blog. I'm on my vacation, as I've stated several times before, but its no picnic. I have lost three people . My dear cousin and two girlfriends in a matter of weeks. It has, as to be expected, taken a toll on me and what I may or may not do now. Subsequently, I mostly stayed home and turned into a couch potato and yes, have gained a few extra extra pounds as a result. Alas, I'm slowing getting out of this slump.

Most of my day's were spent fixing jigsaw puzzles with my son, reading magazines, (what's happening to my girl Tori Spelling!) and watching television. Right now, I can barely keep my eyes open long enough to finish typing. Ugh! Thank God for spell-check!

I have yet to walk the beaches, which isn't 5 minutes walk from my house. How pathetic!

Everything, however, will be okay in a few more days. My cousin was laid to rest on Sunday. One friend will be buried on Thursday and the other? The date has not yet been set.
Annmarie was that cousin that was so cute, cool and quite. I miss her already. R.I.P. Ann-marie.

You're gone girl, but definitely not forgotten.

My life for the past 2 weeks are as follows:

• Games with my son
• Talks with my mom
• Pray for longer days

The Games- Car games and Bike Games with my son online.

As far as jigsaw puzzles go, we do Spongebob, Pluto (@ disney), and Mickey Mouse.

Outfits Later......

Party Mix

I have been slowing down lately, and not just my metabolic rate. I have attended very little events and almost no party whatsoever,lately. I went to a party recently, a friend of mine was the host. I didn't have the excitement normally felt when dressing for such an occassion. I did boring basics...Plus getting dressed at work is no fun at all. I had to get dressed there because there was no way to possible make it home, get ready and back before my ride would've been ready and the venue was really a distance away from where I was.
The party was themed Suspension-As in being sent home from school because of misconduct or whatever: We were supposed to be in uniforms, but I hate uniforms! So I did my own thing. Don't hate! Appreciate!

Black tank-J.Crew, Zippered shrug-, Laced gladiators-Jessica Simpson, oversized clutch-Sonia Rykiel, Necktie-Boss.

But before all that...,

Before my vacation officially began, I was doing a little, some'n some'n....My outfits to this point are just summer basics really. As such, not much to write about. Man! I've turned this blog into something more therapeutic. Its like a daily journal.
See looks below....
.


This was actually my last day at work....I just couldn't wait to be outside those gates!
I just went home, showered, changed into the outfit below and went to the barber....My cousin, who is uber talented.... His name is Kevin of Diamond Touch Beauty and Barber Salon.


The day before my final day I went shopping. I had that work fun day at the beach coming up and this is what I wore shopping with my girlfriend, who I of course dragged along with me.


Feedback welcome....
