didn't get to where i am by just shaking hands...

denim skirt (Reitmans); black top (Fairweather); thong sandals (Spring); disc earrings (Suzy Shier); headband (Suzy Shier)


I am currently obsessed with Nickelback. They are an awesome Canadian rock band and keep turning out great album after great album after great album. I missed their show the last time they were in my town because of a work event I had the next day and I thought I'd be too tired after the concert. WTF?? Who am I and what happened to my brain that day?? I keep hoping with a new album out that they'll come around again soon....

I am also currently loving myself and my outfits this week! Very rock based for me - as rock as work appropriate can go - and these thong sandals are what makes the entire outfit...that and my big hair. I love big hair too! I am loving everything lately...even in the rain that doesn't want to leave. Though I am of the school of thought to let it rain all week so that the weekend will be sunny!

I have my first golf game of the season tomorrow. I started last year and really like it. One of my coworkers signed us up for a women's league on Thursday mornings. My game is at 7:00 a.m. I don't know if I like golf THAT much. But it'll be good practice and a great networking opportunity.

Hope you all get over the hump that is today.

working girl

pants (Reitmans); top (Winners); clear bead necklace (Banana Republic); pearl studs (gifted); black wedges (Winners)

Working Girl is one of my favourite movies ever! I had some meetings this morning and when walking back to my office with my trench and carrier bag - I caught a glimpse of myself in a window and the image of Melanie Griffith popped into my head! Umm, I look nothing like Melanie Griffith - I have dark brown eyes, dark brown hair, shorter, curvier...but I looked very 'working girl', plus, it was on tv over the weekend :)

The concert was amazing! Even better than the one I saw in the fall. What was hilarious though is that women were throwing their panties and bras on stage at the guys - even some flashing going on. This didn't even happen at Motley Crue when Tommy Lee came on stage. All those pent-up teen hormones must have been out in spades! Too funny!

I have more bridal shower shopping to do tonight. While I like the idea of a gift registry, I often find myself shopping outside of the suggested for a couple of reasons - I know the bride personally so I can find her something else she would like, and, more importantly, I can usually find items for much less than the retail price. And saving money is the name of the game, especially when for one bride there is an engagement party, bridal shower, stag and doe, bachelorette party and the wedding. Then multiply that same scenario by 4 and that's what my summer looks like. Truth be told, I'd rather spend my money on what I'm going to wear....
