KIA, sup?

Have I ever mentioned how much I love my car? Well, now I am mentioning it!!! My KIA is very cute and spunky and hatch-backy. I like the pep it has, it's sweet body kit and spoiler, its cute red color, and uniqueness. I know it is not the only KIA Spectra hatchback on the road, but it is definitely not as common as say a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. I am definitely not a car person but maybe owning this car will get my more psyched for the joys of driving?

New Kicks!!!

Ta da! I got some cute new Onitsuka Tigers when I took a visit to the Journeys at Jordan Creek Mall in Des Moines. They were both uber-clearance and my size and strange and cute and unique. Des Moines kids must not like Tigers like Iowa City kids do because if we had these puppies at our store, they would sell out in about 2 seconds flat. I love having a discount cause both pairs, including tax, were about $30 bucks!

Kung Fu Puppy

My boy is all grown up now! Look at him karate kicking into the air like a seasoned pro in his festive holiday sweater. You so fancy, Spencer!

You know you are in Des Moines, IA when.....

That's right! The first thing I saw when I pulled into Des Moines, IA was this sweet license plate! SLIPNOT rules, maggots!!!

Christmas Treeeeeeee!

Will and I put up the Christmas tree the other day and it is very cute! We got a little tree at Hobby Lobby 1/2 off, a set of glass ornaments, some cheesy tinsel garland, and fancy twinkle lights. The tree seemed to be missing something so I started to search the house for other stuff to add. I spotted my fake fruit and thought, "Genius idea!" After the fake fruit, I then added some fake Hawaiian flowers into the branches as well. Our tree turned out beautifully! I love it.

Last night, Will and I turned out all of room lights and turned on the Christmas tree. We watched it twinkle until we drifted asleep. I felt very nostalgic and happy for this:)

Our wreath. I love this thing. I paid 50 cents for it!

Rodarte for Target Preview

Major kudos to my close companion Kendra for giving me the heads up on Target's upcoming designer adventure. Introducing Rodarte for Target. Oh so very 90's and chic. Very weird and couture at the same time. Reminds me of Rose McGowan's character in the 90's flick "Doom Generation." I am saving up to buy when the collection makes it's debut December 22...... Consequently, my Dad's birthday. Happy Birthday, Dad! I am buying hot designer clothes in honor of your birth! Ha ha!

See the similarities between the upcoming Rodarte collection and Rose McGowan's character "Amy Blue" in "Doom Generation"? I love the 90's and who cares if little fashionista tween brats copy the fashions...... At least I get a second chance to buy the fashion I love!

My Betsey Johnson Finds!!!

I may be broke, but I'll be damned if I am ever able to pass up a good deal on Betsey Johnson items! The other day at Von Maur, I found these earrings and little ring for $10 and $12 bucks each! Hell yes! I love the little monkey guy in a tuxedo, the bear ring is just cute as can be, and the little kitty cat earrings are like a childhood dream come true. I love the little rhinestones on them.... Too bad these earrings are waaaaaay too heavy for everyday wear. Oh well!

Mail from Hong Kong

I finally got my little scooter in the mail today!!!! It is very itty-bitty and cute and nicely made. I love it and I love getting mail from other countries!!!!

Ugly Dog Sweater

Tis' the season......

To dress dogs up in hilarious sweaters!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, I got Spencer some crappy dog sweater out of the One Spot at Target. The tag on it specifically said, "Ugly Dog Sweater." Sounds about accurate. I think Spenc looks adorable:)

Found! Keane print!

I was super excited today to find this Keane print at the thrift store. Soooo creepy and bizarre! The copyright on it is 1962. I want more of these around my house!
