The Talk

You would think after a little unintentional break from blogging that I would come back with a banger outfit or something really hardcore to share...not really.

My outfit isn't even worthy of pictures which is why I decided to Jedi mind trick you with my favorite mural backdrops.

Did it work?

Did you overlook the fact that I just have on a black maxi dress and a hat (to conceal my wet hair)?

I do heart the back of the dress. Kinda ZEXY in an "oh, this is just a quick dress to throw on to go pick out wedding bands and drink adult beverages" kinda way.

No?

*shrugs*

In other news, I'm getting married next month and out of the blue my mom arranges a dinner to chat with the fiance'.

I have no idea what she is going to talk about.

She's always full of tricks...that lady.

He thinks she is going to ask if he knows Jesus Christ (he does).

I eased his mind. I know my mom.

She's going to ask him to teach her how to Dougie.

He won't.

Because he can't.

Then she's gonna say, "Oh. Well...do you like Nicki Minaj? That girl is smart. You know she's going on tour with Britney Spears."

He's going to look confused.

And then she's going to then tell him about Nicki Minaj's life story...you know...because she saw a special on MTV about it.

He will look confused.

And she'll laugh.

Then say, "Ok, well my show is about to come on at 8, so let's wrap this up."

That's all.

That's how my mom rolls.

 Maxi dress: Marshall's

Jessica Simpson Leopard flats (love)

Urban Outfitters Fedora

Straw bag: Charming Charlies (old)

*Umm...I really did have that conversation about Nicki Minaj with mother a few weeks ago. (rolls eyes)

GFS Series: Christ Chic

I was forced to get dressed  for church in exactly 20 minutes...or I was going to get LEFT!

So, I just kind of remixed some of the pieces from the last few posts to make an outfit.

Not loving any of these pics either:(

 I've been left before. When I was in high school, I went to the football playoff game for my school and I went with my dad. Well, when I got there...I wanted to walk around the Astrodome with my friends. That's what everybody did at the games, right?

(Vintage coat, Zara scarf/skirt, BEBE sweater (super,super old), Banana Republic fedora)

This was before cell phones....I think I may have had a pager/beeper at the time. So, my dad told me to meet him at the 50 yrd line seats at the end of the game...which I did, but that fool wasn't there! I am walking around the dome frantically thinking surely he wouldn't leave me. Oh, I forgot one thing...my dad WORKED at the school I attended. After about an hour of walking around...I got a ride from one of my friends who had to take me all the way home.

(I wasn't even going to post these pics bc they don't wow me but I wore it for the Lord so it has to be good enough  you guys. Amen.)

My dad was there. Sure was. Chilling. Watching Thundercats. Didn't say a word to me. I was so mad and embarrassed because the whole school heard about it. He told me he left early because they were losing and that if I had sat my "fast butt" down, I would've known that. What could I say? Nothing.

For that reason, I can get ready quick, fast and in a hurry!

(Sorry for the lack of posts, but it's been cold and I need another tripod. I will do better:)



Southern Cowboy Pimp's Evangelist Wife

(Urban Outfitters hat and shirt/ Thrifted men's blazer/Target jeggins/Zara scarf, Nine West Booties)

I wore this to meet a friend (whom I met through this blog) at Starbucks.

  We were there to gossip strategize about a few projects in the new year.  I don't love this look but it was Starbucks for crying out loud. This was doing too much in my opinion:)

I adore this shirt. Oversized? Check. Leopard print? Check. Reps Jesus? CHECK! I love it. It'll look better with a camel skirt and red heels (for street walking) or with a black fitted skirt and tights. I'll rework it. I kinda felt like a Southern Evangelist who happens to be a cowboy pimp's wife....no??

(Lazy hair day= hat)

While my friend and I were gossiping  strategizing, this Latin lover came over and insisted on trying on my hat...

then he commenced to write down his number for her. Not that she asked for it but because he felt she needed it.  He literally told her "Hey, even if you call and hang up. I will love you." I forced her to keep the number because he says he is an auto mechanic. We all need friends in high and low places!

Thanks Ash for taking my pics!

Also,  I've decided that I need to edit my closet. So make sure you "like" me on FB because that's the only place I'm selling the items for now:)
