Extreme Home MakeOver - 1st Degree Burglary Edition






Jacket and Purse: Target, Skirt: TJ Maxx, Glasses: Hugo Boss, Watch: Michael Kors, Necklace: Vestique, Shoes: Off Broadway

As I write this, it's 4:43 in the morning.

I passed the hell out at 9:45 last night and woke right up at 2:30 raring to go. I scrolled through my phone for about 20 minutes before getting out of bed, then I got up and decided to rearrange our front room and re-purpose it into my home office. That's right... I was moving furniture, decorating shelves, Swiffering floors, dusting, etc. all at 3 AM (in my robe). I kind of always knew that my Manfriend could sleep through anything, but now it is official. I closed the bedroom door, walked down the hall, made madness out of our front room, put it all back together and he hasn't woken up once. My dogs on the other hand... they woke up... they hate me.

AnyWHO... this is what I wore to work yesterday (and later on a little, "romantical" after dinner date).

I bought this skirt at TJ Maxx over a year ago, and found this little track jacket thing at Target a month or so ago, but they look like they came together, don't they? I try to avoid "matchy-matchy" most of the time, but once in a while you just want "easy'. This choice was like "paint by numbers" for outfits. Black, white, and blue jacket... oh, I know... I'll pair it with my black/white and blue skirt. Then, I'll get really crazy and pick a purse and necklace with the same exact color blue. I know what you're thinking... the girl's a creative genius. Annnnd you'd be right.

Speaking of our dinner date. It was amazing. We went to Baku (a biiiiiit pricey, but ridiculously good). And yes... I take iPhone pictures of my food. I don't know why I do it. I am sure it's some peoples pet peeve, but so what?  I also share said photos on Instagram. I am "that" person. I don't care. I mean... when I asked for salt and pepper, they brought me it to me on little Yin/Yang spoons!  If that does not make you want to take a picture you are dead inside.
This is my new home office/front room.  There should be a show on HGTV where people sneak into your house while you are asleep and give one of your rooms a makeover. It should have some sort of contest element, like... trying not to wake up the owners, or finishing the work before a neighboor calls the cops.

P.S.- Don't mind the weird mirror selfie. It's creepy. I know.
