This is my last chance to complete my rough draft for my paper. It's slowly getting there, but it's been an uphill battle to finish it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you haven't noticed, my hair is getting longer! I've had a short haircut since college started, which is also when I started cutting my own hair. Ya, you read that right, I chop my own locks, so if you like my hair cut then try it yourself. You'll have no one else to blame but yourself if you don't like it and if you do like the result, kudos. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibwL8w3GlirxhldObxYZ3S2Zg4ds8XrfP46yjghan14VqwBbXRcb7JKHstt8KPXWJRzIdOTvtWcJKBpSyeQsuUMWNp8z9Sv1m0I2Q-eWZ7jyVfaRPl5po4Zlm6d-9wKP22RBlfEvsm8fAu/s1600/11.28.11b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibwL8w3GlirxhldObxYZ3S2Zg4ds8XrfP46yjghan14VqwBbXRcb7JKHstt8KPXWJRzIdOTvtWcJKBpSyeQsuUMWNp8z9Sv1m0I2Q-eWZ7jyVfaRPl5po4Zlm6d-9wKP22RBlfEvsm8fAu/s640/11.28.11b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I feel like...senior pictures. That's what these pictures remind me of. The pretty background with the sitting and the hand folded the correct way. The only difference between these photos and my senior photos are that I have them. My family took senior pictures but didn't buy any...what a waste, right? Whatever, I didn't like what I was wearing in those pictures anyway. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So, this is Day Two of the 7 Day Dare. Good so far, but I can for sure tell you that come the end of the week, I'm going to hate wearing this dress and I won't want to look at it for a long time...at least a few days.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincVmoycehSqETS5D5nkDL3bqCbfViVxCCBdYjI-741oSwbyeunTAcpP7VeUuG4HxNg9FuaLmaWuNfan_RPDu-eyupsdpQd3sn-SZL8lNcTAdl_EKpX3yvn3Q6TjnmYY3AlLreLDurXzIp/s1600/11.28.11c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="472" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincVmoycehSqETS5D5nkDL3bqCbfViVxCCBdYjI-741oSwbyeunTAcpP7VeUuG4HxNg9FuaLmaWuNfan_RPDu-eyupsdpQd3sn-SZL8lNcTAdl_EKpX3yvn3Q6TjnmYY3AlLreLDurXzIp/s640/11.28.11c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Sweater: Target<br />Dress: Target<br />Scarf: Urban Outfitters<br />Leggings: Simply Vera from Kohls<br />Boots: Uggs<br />Sunglasses: Wayfarer Ray Ban

Since going home for a mere 3 days is not worth a plane ticket, I go to my Grandparent's Ranch, which is in the middle of nowhere...and I mean NOWHERE...Wyoming. The cool part about my Grandma's ranch is that she runs the state's Horse Rescue Center. She has about, oh.. 7 horses, 2 donkeys (burros) and a mule. She also has 5 cats, an Austrailian Sheepdog and a big 217lb Mastiff. Keep in mind that my grandma is almost 82 years old, hardly 135lbs and only 5 feet tall. She's a true cowgirl.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVq1Coc_iq2uFSwyhpGvmqe6tjAMtcbRmsuyBtAnSjCtdEayUQsCAMrSiwKdAbap5C1ce1_s25B60DRkOLolU-_dk8Ih7yeN2j-BZkkZcKUnIQMEClMCSdi-W1KUkUKJ3q8_TPNFzUfAow/s1600/11.25.11b.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVq1Coc_iq2uFSwyhpGvmqe6tjAMtcbRmsuyBtAnSjCtdEayUQsCAMrSiwKdAbap5C1ce1_s25B60DRkOLolU-_dk8Ih7yeN2j-BZkkZcKUnIQMEClMCSdi-W1KUkUKJ3q8_TPNFzUfAow/s640/11.25.11b.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I have to drive over 300 miles to get to her house, so I always make sure that I dress for comfort above all else when I go visit.

My grandma does some pretty amazing things with her animals. All of them are rescues who have a great home at her ranch. The horses that were once fearful of or mean to people are now the most gentle creatures. I hope everyone enjoyed their family time much as I did. And happy Black Friday!

What to Wear on Black Friday

My mom is an expert though and likes to work alone, as though I'd even have the opportunity to go with her anyway seeing as we're 1,300 miles apart. For the event though, I hear layers and comfort are key to a successful morning. In honor of this crazy day, I've prepared this post as a sample outfit idea for all you brave souls who are going out to the front lines of the retail war. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXiFdnuGOY7Q5CxdDBhLToM55AtrJCITDylmqgDqKvQjO7o_PXxZpa9XDFQ1G93afTu43apmbFrfTk1IVYoIaWhylhPF1p_AYywgzvXXiImWMZFilD0hBNeT9lOdAsYNn_wiGkL15W8xX0/s1600/11.23.11b+black+friday+article.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXiFdnuGOY7Q5CxdDBhLToM55AtrJCITDylmqgDqKvQjO7o_PXxZpa9XDFQ1G93afTu43apmbFrfTk1IVYoIaWhylhPF1p_AYywgzvXXiImWMZFilD0hBNeT9lOdAsYNn_wiGkL15W8xX0/s640/11.23.11b+black+friday+article.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My idea for the perfect Black Friday outfit is a Chambray Shirt, jeans, boots, scarf and a warm, yet adorable coat. I imagine for the shopping you'll need something you can throw on and off in order to try things on because fitting rooms are not an option, I assume. Another reason for the cool coat is to make you easier to spot if you become separated from your group.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2k5RdyWF4AY5YMwWgPcAjR5-7jfIG3N7bvDpA2wKde_gOfsOy0EWCAxwzhHfYdw2pyi16Bb39CK40SCDgRsyCjJy3OKTA-l8o_auJ_erimE0drRLvBuhfRRqDrcCkZTNUKABSxnHv2-R_/s1600/11.23.11c+black+friday+article.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2k5RdyWF4AY5YMwWgPcAjR5-7jfIG3N7bvDpA2wKde_gOfsOy0EWCAxwzhHfYdw2pyi16Bb39CK40SCDgRsyCjJy3OKTA-l8o_auJ_erimE0drRLvBuhfRRqDrcCkZTNUKABSxnHv2-R_/s640/11.23.11c+black+friday+article.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am the type of girl where if my coat has a pocket that is meant for my wallet, I am going to use it. I also would just say purses are off limits when hoards of people are trying to get the last flat screen TV for cheap. I think that if you're a die-hard Black Friday shopper, then you're outside waiting in line and in that case, you should have friends or family bring you sustenance in the form of Thanksgiving leftovers at 2:00am.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAimYIKmsLdtyTR49XobZP6vR6cN3EGUjWby-mwP8HLf9ZkVNsKfLoHTtdIu38oq57tqhdwRCSFgMHdoCRL0YnpK0wRK8m06_DWXF7MQI8f96WVS_cTg4HkrbIX6tjlS9d7GlHYhHs5UHg/s1600/11.23.11d+black+friday+article.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAimYIKmsLdtyTR49XobZP6vR6cN3EGUjWby-mwP8HLf9ZkVNsKfLoHTtdIu38oq57tqhdwRCSFgMHdoCRL0YnpK0wRK8m06_DWXF7MQI8f96WVS_cTg4HkrbIX6tjlS9d7GlHYhHs5UHg/s640/11.23.11d+black+friday+article.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I think Black Friday is hilarious.  My dad, dog and I would sit and watch the chaos from the comfort of our car with hot chocolate.

What to Wear to Thanksgiving Dinner

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanksgiving is a day to celebrate flowy tops and elastic waist bands. It's a true American holiday: eat until you can't eat anymore. Many people I know have a more casual Thanksgiving, but then there are the questions of what can I wear that will let my full belly be comfortable and what will be cute and appropriate for a family occasion? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I have 3 different outfits to answer such questions. I have a casual (Dinner and Football), semi-formal (Kinda Casual) and the actual formal (Fancy Tableware, Fancy Dress) outfit ideas.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Dinner and Football</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-eBcU8BMNGRvnDRAWx7w9NJWPquLyL44hbK3XzRBHs68Y9JuisZ48ajgk4H3EEIQdA-oSEyeTsTxn-VFKh_WtQ4mGlVVOk-Tp4HUDT878iNLVESqBBSlTGHLF6qfuK4YN4o48hjdyGk9W/s1600/thanksgiving+casual+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-eBcU8BMNGRvnDRAWx7w9NJWPquLyL44hbK3XzRBHs68Y9JuisZ48ajgk4H3EEIQdA-oSEyeTsTxn-VFKh_WtQ4mGlVVOk-Tp4HUDT878iNLVESqBBSlTGHLF6qfuK4YN4o48hjdyGk9W/s640/thanksgiving+casual+1.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The key to a casual Thanksgiving is to look cute without trying. I love the black and yellow mix right now. The dark top with the happy bright sweater adds to the Chi of the meal and of the holiday; in the darkness of winter you'll bring warmth and joy to the home. To make your outfit have a more dressed-up feel, pick a detailed top and a sparkly necklace.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0xyZr_I9HMdKUU9p4bFxCNynWPnozwtlmV7gxX8dllL6pI_xT4zupEzrO_i7-uLWTAKKsT4M-t7DPPHmRPDuPTksZLmHcOumXqxqDKawcBdDs5D_y00vrwINKLMsvkmxbktVrBYs1yamL/s1600/thanksgiving+casual+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0xyZr_I9HMdKUU9p4bFxCNynWPnozwtlmV7gxX8dllL6pI_xT4zupEzrO_i7-uLWTAKKsT4M-t7DPPHmRPDuPTksZLmHcOumXqxqDKawcBdDs5D_y00vrwINKLMsvkmxbktVrBYs1yamL/s640/thanksgiving+casual+2.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you're wearing jeans, make sure you wear a pair that doesn't require a belt. Just avoid anything that is tight around the middle area of your body. I recommend jeggings because they make your legs look great and typically you don't have to wear a belt. Also, when wearing a flowy or big top, you should wear a tight bottom or vice versa if wearing a tight top, then go for a boot-cut or flare jean.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7p-WnHydl5maSyYxrlsixTfdo-PH-Vlhe-t5Gl4wH4Q_HhLSRDwwbGEa9mkGUt5DhyphenhyphenJGJRYd-7nAUFwzvcgNEMirrxhk9eMgJ-8prR8MCDslQDWSXDT9V3CgIEOkdTYADQHxpayP19dXV/s1600/thanksgiving+casual+3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7p-WnHydl5maSyYxrlsixTfdo-PH-Vlhe-t5Gl4wH4Q_HhLSRDwwbGEa9mkGUt5DhyphenhyphenJGJRYd-7nAUFwzvcgNEMirrxhk9eMgJ-8prR8MCDslQDWSXDT9V3CgIEOkdTYADQHxpayP19dXV/s640/thanksgiving+casual+3.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Sweater: <a href="http://www.target.com/p/Mossimo-Supply-Co-Juniors-Long-Sleeve-Cardigan/-/A-13651611" target="_blank">Target</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Shirt: Urban Outfitters (<a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=72298&vid=1&pid=896847" target="_blank">Similar)</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Jeans:<a href="http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product.jsp?productId=0431_7014_913&catId=cat90120&bundleCatId=cat4860004" target="_blank">American Eagle</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Shoes:<a href="http://www.minnetonkamoccasin.com/CatalogMocsClogs.asp" target="_blank">Minnetonka</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Necklace: American Eagle (<a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=9198&vid=1&pid=909900&scid=909900002" target="_blank">Similar</a>)</div><div align="center" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Kinda Casual</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn_z8Xd0Z2-EwWSVrVQmTO2n5IbAlU6zYB_yB83qGufVYDCZQKXMogPh4Jq33AIWTLX1TYEhFXnGopNOAWMER66bW30qMV03D968XSzxIY4jvhljjrzl5lQ4TUdgAJVUppw_QI4lGHgo4_/s1600/thanksgiving+semi-casual+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn_z8Xd0Z2-EwWSVrVQmTO2n5IbAlU6zYB_yB83qGufVYDCZQKXMogPh4Jq33AIWTLX1TYEhFXnGopNOAWMER66bW30qMV03D968XSzxIY4jvhljjrzl5lQ4TUdgAJVUppw_QI4lGHgo4_/s640/thanksgiving+semi-casual+1.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If your crazy aunt tells you that the dress code for Thanksgiving is going to be a little different and she says it's going to be semi-formal this year, inside you really know she really means formal.  The goal is to not overdress and to still make your aunt happy. To reach this goal, mix rich colors with cotton and find a pretty delicate top and classy essentials to finish the look. And, of course, dress for comfort. This elastic waist skirt and loose-fitting top allows for both breathing and eating room.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbzqiH6qiZU7I01_YaWkRza1ZeFd03YwuYGhyphenhyphen2gj3doOtpZnDYTcQiuZrjjBvOrx8Ml5Ls-YkFaHXtdeqWZtKeYZghEB1h4RAGHSj4q8nHe65wcAfWuqi6i9mRG89vhuLsnjHoMhjj_dct/s1600/thanksgiving+semi-casual+3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbzqiH6qiZU7I01_YaWkRza1ZeFd03YwuYGhyphenhyphen2gj3doOtpZnDYTcQiuZrjjBvOrx8Ml5Ls-YkFaHXtdeqWZtKeYZghEB1h4RAGHSj4q8nHe65wcAfWuqi6i9mRG89vhuLsnjHoMhjj_dct/s640/thanksgiving+semi-casual+3.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A cranberry skirt is perfect for the holidays because of its versatility. Plus, it fits right in with the season's style. Tulip style skirts and dresses add some sex appeal, showing a little more leg than normal hem-lines. A delicate lace top is another hot style this season and the beige color gives endless options and ways to mix and match with other items already in your closet. A black blazer adds a classy touch, but the chain necklace creates a rough edge to such a feminine outfit. I included a link to this shirt below. Always do a photo check with any thin shirt or lace design that doesn't have an undershirt. With the photo check you can see if the flash does the unexpected: a wardrobe malfunction at a family gathering.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt5tgczvG4t-UxIdx8E40A4eyjMAB86X2eQWLLzGdC3xu2Mr7IbJ3kDEha6-iZbm9ZPUBuYUpJ5aDo4NV-db0X5lOZtdsozvp6YvuJzrN9cpIDjlvO3BCegm7AO_d9zMCzytlXko0C5Im1/s1600/thanksgiving+semi-casual+5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt5tgczvG4t-UxIdx8E40A4eyjMAB86X2eQWLLzGdC3xu2Mr7IbJ3kDEha6-iZbm9ZPUBuYUpJ5aDo4NV-db0X5lOZtdsozvp6YvuJzrN9cpIDjlvO3BCegm7AO_d9zMCzytlXko0C5Im1/s640/thanksgiving+semi-casual+5.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Jacket: <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=55474&vid=1&pid=885882" target="_blank">Old Navy</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Top: <a href="http://www.ae.com/aerie/browse/product.jsp?productId=0448_5310_123&catId=cat520027&bundleCatId=cat4910104" target="_blank">Aerie</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Skirt: <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=55402&vid=1&pid=886045&scid=886045022" target="_blank">Old Navy</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Necklace: Old Navy (<a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=9198&vid=1&pid=910107&scid=910107002" target="_blank">Similar</a>)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Shoes: Target (<a href="http://www.target.com/p/Women-s-Merona-Maris-Peep-Toe-Platform-Pumps-Black-Patent/-/A-13328239" target="_blank">Similar</a>)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Fancy Tableware, Fancy Dress</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGLxXJzwN2I6cUNYkgF-OJKmife6fg-H9Ckh8XWCDIa8xkVArQxcgmcBKtTwKyrk64h5SR8wjwIEUhVRFXa3Jq2EUX4cg3EQ0U1iLuEaEnn5-5kYinXt4ueLuuEbhE3M3BkjgbyhU-UfLm/s1600/thanksgiving+formal+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGLxXJzwN2I6cUNYkgF-OJKmife6fg-H9Ckh8XWCDIa8xkVArQxcgmcBKtTwKyrk64h5SR8wjwIEUhVRFXa3Jq2EUX4cg3EQ0U1iLuEaEnn5-5kYinXt4ueLuuEbhE3M3BkjgbyhU-UfLm/s640/thanksgiving+formal+1.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This look can be used for any formal holiday event this season. It has a little sparkle and a lot of easy, ready-to-wear appeal. Throw on a pair of heels to show off the hours you've put in at the gym. Just because it's cold out doesn't mean you can't be hot. In the Thanksgiving aspect, this dress is made of cotton and has stretch, again adding to comfort to a full belly. The horizontal stripes are tricky though. Some people have the idea that stripes are not good for a bigger person because they bring out curves in the wrong places. With this design, it actually makes a person look smaller because of the layers of fabric.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5Ce1u9IIn6PXJ6b-eLDU9Y54VX0QQZgxeDXohAwImk4M2BVb-MFACZp0VyHT17uXFfgF2uAqwMBltAgJbHCat83ixcXybfnqyig1C0wJPw-G-mJ_ebNlooEPZ-fJ0PZBsMeRO3w8Hse_/s1600/thanksgiving+formal+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5Ce1u9IIn6PXJ6b-eLDU9Y54VX0QQZgxeDXohAwImk4M2BVb-MFACZp0VyHT17uXFfgF2uAqwMBltAgJbHCat83ixcXybfnqyig1C0wJPw-G-mJ_ebNlooEPZ-fJ0PZBsMeRO3w8Hse_/s640/thanksgiving+formal+2.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">  To top off a beautiful dress, throw on a sequin sweater for holiday sparkle.

Working out is like a healthy drug addiction.

Yes, it stayed relatively close to the book, just some of the gross scenes that came straight out of the book I wasn't prepared for because the way they did them in the movie was completely different than how I saw it in my head. My take on the movie: if you want a good laugh or to love something that's so ugly it's cute, then go see this movie and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3DOIFgWrfGLGetEa-LZMKM8A98uFmRlcVl2CuX_zwCt8bZ43X4LIScIwg8ziMUxYbzGYhYPstf2K7OLmBc5A_ZbPQp32vQNEP1BSa15ypE92cYA0WEb2U6Vo0dBey8Ngz15_5hbkufJH5/s1600/11.18.11c.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3DOIFgWrfGLGetEa-LZMKM8A98uFmRlcVl2CuX_zwCt8bZ43X4LIScIwg8ziMUxYbzGYhYPstf2K7OLmBc5A_ZbPQp32vQNEP1BSa15ypE92cYA0WEb2U6Vo0dBey8Ngz15_5hbkufJH5/s640/11.18.11c.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Fashion Note: Today is the last day of scarf week.

My first was actually the silver sparkler ones. I loved those shoes. In high school for the school newspaper, I did an article on Toms and how they would become big. I had no clue Hanson was partnering with them.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-XUU8PwwCCIRfBu716Krp8Esno-cItFxZOT9oItL9OBT-ZZc5w_68Z4ckjl9tto1RUKOcuewKCA-yeRDQlQduJPLHGNQusa56BdrZxRhlUwPP9Rdlv2fBr_ZhCapZ2UNQm_i-bUX7rypQ/s1600/11.11.11b.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-XUU8PwwCCIRfBu716Krp8Esno-cItFxZOT9oItL9OBT-ZZc5w_68Z4ckjl9tto1RUKOcuewKCA-yeRDQlQduJPLHGNQusa56BdrZxRhlUwPP9Rdlv2fBr_ZhCapZ2UNQm_i-bUX7rypQ/s640/11.11.11b.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A problem I came across with my sparkle Toms is that the weather is too cold here and I needed another pair to keep my feet at ease. While online one day, I saw that they were introducing fleece lined Toms and my prayers were answered.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaetJbQRuYbY_TuzghqX_sOQffmjRvR4fjuyEOu-z_mQ89Aombb46I_DgVYcqoSUWdOWMgbLYL5fJeLk_mcAYnzA5LLMftN2kY1wZy2bbjN7GrpOlW6IrQoS_FuW00Gw1H7Q7rBJrPYDYR/s1600/11.11.11c.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaetJbQRuYbY_TuzghqX_sOQffmjRvR4fjuyEOu-z_mQ89Aombb46I_DgVYcqoSUWdOWMgbLYL5fJeLk_mcAYnzA5LLMftN2kY1wZy2bbjN7GrpOlW6IrQoS_FuW00Gw1H7Q7rBJrPYDYR/s640/11.11.11c.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">As you can see, my fleeced lined ones have gotten beat up by the wear. They're great shoes and I love the philanthropy behind the brand.
