It is so hard !!!!!!!!!

Good Morning All,

It has been a hard couple of days.  I haven't been in the mood to blog.  I am ready to go back to work.  I have a bit of cabin fever.  I went on a second interview yesterday and found out that I had to do a third interview.  That bit of news just made me feel down.  I feel that most companies have people going through hoops just to gain a job.  I would be lying if I said that I don't mind.  I am just anxious.  Getting back to good news, I lost 4 pounds since last week.  Remember the Lafayette 148 pair of pants I bought from the personal stylist at Nordstroms a month ago?  They are way too big.  I couldn't wear them to my interview yesterday. However, I was able to get into my tester skirt (the skirt that determines if I gain or lost weight) and jacket.  It was a suit that I purchased from Ann Taylor Loft about 6 years ago.  I never wore the skirt but always the jacket with a pair of black pants.  The suit is a little busy.  It is a well made suit of 100% cotton.  I wore the suit yesterday and the woman that interviewed me loved it.  Hopefully, that's winning points for me in the selection process. Well, to celebrate my weight lost and soothe my hard couple of days, I spent some money that I didn't have.  That is why I am anxious to get back to work to support my habits that I have.  And oh, my 30 day fast of not buying something went out the window when I purchased this stuff.  I went 14 days without purchasing anything and that is a huge accomplishment for me.  I have included the things that I bought down below. 

It seems when you are trying to accomplish a goal, here comes the enemy trying to win.  Well he won when the new Louis Vuitton epi colors came out.  I wanted an epi speedy in red for the longest time.  I have a black one and when I wanted a red one about 4 years ago, LV discontinued the color. I am so happy that I was able to track one down at the Michigan Avenue store.  I want to thank my favorite SA Franklin for snagging the bag for me. I can't wait to receive it.

Blessings!!!!!!

Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel

Good Evening All, This week has been rather hectic.  Dealing with family issues and job interviews at the same time.  All is good and the Creator is in charge.  I had purchased a Dooney and Bourke bag about two months ago to store my keys, ipod and identification when I workout at the gym. The bag wasn't a great choice and I end up exchanging the bag for a Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel in gray. At first I didn't really like the Janine Satchel because of the size.  I love big bags; however since I have lost over 20 pounds, big bags are starting to overwhelm my stature.  I wanted a gray bag because I wear a lot of gray outfits and have been unable to find the perfect gray bag.  There are many different shades of gray that tend to be a little taupe or have a bluish undertone.  This bag is more on the heather gray side with the beige vachetta accent. It is the perfect bag for the warmer months.  The leather reminds me of the Prada S...

I Am Back

Blessings To Everyone, It has been two months since I last blogged.  I have been extremely busy with work.  I was working on a dress for success event with both my employers that includes Ann Taylor.  We created an initiative to teach graduates how to dress for interviews and what to wear for work.  At my primary job, we have to create initiatives along with my current job duties. The event was a success. One of the student models was offered a job at the new Loft flagship in Chicago. I also have been contemplating which way I would like this blog to go.  The blog started out as a self help for me and to inspire others as well. I want to focus on inspiring others. In the past two months I have been out of town to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.  Going to New York was one of the things I wanted to do before I leave this world.  I would say that it is part of my bucket list.  I enjoyed myself.  You know I love all thing...

Happy 4th of July

H A P P Y  4 T H  O F  J U L Y  ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I would like to take this opportunity to say Happy 4th of July to all.  I am taking it easy today.  My hubby barbecued some jerk chicken breast that have been marinating over night, some beef hot dogs, some lamb burgers, hamburgers, jerk shrimp, and some chicken quarters.  I did a healthy alternative to my famous macaroni and cheese ( wheat rotini noodles).  We are keeping it light.  My sister is coming over and we are just going to watch some movies and relax.  As an ode to the 4th of July, here are some items that I recommend not only for today, but for all time. Blessings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
