Despite appearance, wind and all, today was the warmest day all winter - an astounding 50 degrees!  Its so nice to break free from the chains of big coats and jeans, and I finally was able to sift through all of my summer clothes and came across this amazing vest I've had for over a year and haven't worn once. That's one thing I hate about winter/summer wardrobes, I completely forget about half of my wardrobe for over six months, and then realized there are all of these amazing pieces I have deemed summer wardrobe pieces, but could easily be worn year round- note to self, be a little more selective next year. The weather has been absolutely perfect lately, but we'll see how long this engagement lasts, mother nature has been a complete hussy this year, and can't decide what she wants - hopefully she sticks to her guns this time

Speaking of long lasting engagements, my BF and I have entered into one with a new kitty.  Her name is Loretta, and she's from a small town named Coalville - hope someone get's the reference - and while the saga of Dupree is far from over, we couldn't ask for a better cuddly companion. 

Since the moment she entered our home she has wanted nothing more than to cuddle all day long in our comfy cozy bed, and get all of the rubbies we can give her. She's been purring and laying in our laps for six days now, and that's all that she seems to want out of life- actually, that's basically all I want out of life as well, but unfortunately I'm a human and actually have to work for a living, so I have no problem living vicariously through her.

I always swore I would never be a crazy cat lady, but Dupree completely changed my mind.  I can't get enough of my pretty little kitty, and I am so happy to have rescued her from the hell of living in an animal control center.  I love giving her the best home a kitty could ever ask, or meow for, even if it means spending my days off pampering the shit out of her, and dismissing my normal obligations - aka blogging. Now, all we need is for Dupree to come home, and meet his little sister - or girlfriend - depends on what he decides.

I just bought a fabulous oversize jacket which I shortened the sleeves on so it didn't feel like I was going to a costume party. This is a great way to wear oversize - you look fab! I'll use this as my inspiration for styling up the new piece. Loretta is adorable - we had to leave two cats on the other side of the world when we moved to Europe and although I know they are being well taken care of, it broke my heart!

Ohmy! What a cute little face! I'm glad you found a new friend (um....I think I get the reference....should I be embarrassed that I know that Loretta was the Coal Miners Daughter? Knew living in Ky for several years would serve me well someday!)

Anaivilo said...
