outfit post - never too old

Yet another reason I'm glad I never really developed a whole lot in the boob region - kids party dresses have the best proportions. And training bras cost about 1/10 what anything at Victoria's Secret costs...



I apologize to the 12 year old I have thus deprived by buying this dress by Gwen Stefani/Harajuku Mini for Target. The collection is really good - I tried on the plaid pants & jacket too. The jacket fit and was super cute, but the biggest pants were about 4 inches too small in the waist. The legs and length were great though... so very close to the best suit ever.
Plaid sneaks by Ralph Lauren. Way into multiple conflicting plaids these days.



Since I'm not doing ceramics for a minute I can actually do my nails. Drawing with ink kind of requires something go over the top - the waterproof stuff is tough to get out from under. These thin black plastic french tips are ideal. They just glue onto the very ends and are much easier to maintain than any other home mani I've attempted. They make them in white too. I got mine at Sally Beauty Supply for $15/box with enough to do 3 full sets.



It's such a nice change to have nice nails for once.

Thanks guys!
ashlee I highly recommend this dress - wish she'd do an adult line for Target but i bet it would cost more than the $25 this kids one costs.

Isabel - I am LOVING being blond - I used Clairol Born Blond. It turns even darkest brown hair really blond and it doesn't burn. It tingles, but doesn't burn.

Clara - Thanks! headed over to check you out now. (I check out everyone who comments whether they ask or not:))
