Betty Grable

Why don't we dress and look like this anymore?

Madonna is my Homegirl

Remember those t-shirts?  I always wanted one but I never had the balls to sport it.  I blame my catholic upbringing (they were Mary themed).  Anyways, Madonna has always been one of my favorite people.  I call her a hero of mine because I can remember being 6 years old and dancing around the house to her music and thinking, "This lady is awesome."  and look she still is.  Yeah, there were some times when she freaked me out a little,  I still can't listen to Justify my Love .  What was that period in her life about?  I defend it by saying, "Hey, at least she wasn't afraid to do what she wanted."

I will always hold her in the highest regard, but I wish she would take it easy on the exercise.

My all time favorite picture.  We have this as a painting in our office.

I still want those fishnets.

I want to take a picture just like this. 

New tab and new blog...

First check out my Shop my Closet tab above!  I am giving up on ebay.  I get suckered into spending all the money I make back on the website.  And I loathe paypal right now! Don't even get me started!

I also have a blog for my kindergarten class that I would love for everyone to go checkout!!  http://212kindergarden.blogspot.com/

picnic photo editing

Photoshop is expensive!  Picnik is not.  I suggest if you don't want to pay thousands of dollars that you go to picnik.com to edit your photos.  It's super quick and easy!  Here are four that I did in 10 minutes!!

 My beer is out of this world!!!

A big thank you to Monique for being my first comment!  Now I can stop thinking, "Somebody please comment on this stupid blog so I know what I am doing isn't stupid!"

Oh, Gwen!

Gwen Stefani is tied as a hero of mine with two other women who will be named at a later date but are easily guessed.

I love Gwen, and I am pretty sure if I ever had the chance to meet her I would crumble into a pile of tears.  I wish I had the balls to dye my hair platinum and wear red lipstick daily, but I don't.

My love for her stems back to 15 years old and feeling so misunderstood and angry.  Gwen's songs were mine to vent how I was feeling.  I still can relate to those songs from High School and I can relate to all of the songs from No Doubts other albums and her solo albums.

Coco - Inspiration

Ah, Coco Chanel... you are the epitome of chic.  I wish I was this cool, I wish I could afford your sweet jackets and chain link purses.  Maybe one of these days...

Pictures from the Porch

Ahh, Gruene you are the most relaxing place ever.  I can sit on the porch forever.  This time I had my new camera and I sat outside for a long time taking pictures.
