doors and rooms.

still one of my favorite dresses to run around in...perfectly matched with these super comfortable ankle boots from justfab.

spent the weekend shopping and hanging out with my nephews. attended one's basketball game and welcomed the other home from college. and while killing time the other day, i started playing the game doors & rooms. you're basically stuck in a room and have to use clues to find your way out. i'm only on chapter 4, but it's slightly addicting and it's driving me mad.

have you ever played doors & rooms?

how was your weekend?

search is on.

this weekend, i began the task of looking for a new car.

i've had my car for eight years, so i'm totally out of the loop...there are so many new models out there. if i could take my pick, i'd go for the range rover evoque or the all-new range rover. buuuut, i don't think those are an option as long as i'm putting two minis through school. if you don't mind sharing, tell me what you drive and why you like it.

had this dress for years...one of those dresses that looked cute in the store, not so much when you got home. wanting a white dress to wear with my red plaid, i started fussing with it. seems better shorter, held in place with a hidden belt.
