TBW Recap: December 2011
I can’t believe 2011 is over. It feels like just yesterday I was traipsing around the streets of Columbus biding farewell to 2010 - that sounds really dramatic. For me not a lot changed this year. I feel like everything is as it should be and I’m pretty happy with it. I made some decisions about where I want my life to go and hopefully they will become a reality in 2012. We’ll...
TBW Recap: November 2011
I really dislike DST. It screws up everything, there is nothing more depressing than everything going dark at 5 o’clock. March can never get here soon enough. I don’t really remember much about November…except Thanksgiving but it’s not like that is a real holiday anyway. However any holiday where I get a day off of work to eat counts as a real holiday in my book....
TBW Recap: October 2011
October is one of the prettiest months and it comes and goes so quickly. I made two trips to Circleville this year. One for the pumpkin show and two for giggles which almost turned into a scene from Children of the Corn, excuse me, Stephen King’s Children of the Corn. Needless to say I am happy I reside within Columbus city limits. No judgement.
Like This Dress?
It could be yours! I am starting to clear out my closet and decided to put everything on Ebay. So far this is the only item listed but with a holiday weekend in my sight I hopefully will have more up. I have listed the link below. Happy shopping!

TBW Recap: September 2011
September is one of my favorite months for one reason: TV Season Premieres. There is nothing I love more than sitting back and watching Thursday night Must-See TV. And SNL! I love NBC and I love September.
TBW Recap: August 2011
Come August I took in another fair, destroyed the brakes in my car and saw a movie about apes. Seriously this summer was the best.
TBW Recap: July 2011
Here we go, a month full of pictures. I miss sunny days and not having to wear a coat. The older I get, the more I hate cold weather. However, having to endure winter always makes me appreciate summer. One of my favorite days was going to the Ohio State Fair. I had a funnel cake, rode the chair lift and took in all the people that reside in the Mid-west (I’m including myself in that...
Here, There and Everywhere
Coat: Target / Sweater: Tulle / Jeans: Gap / Shoes: thrifted / Bag: The Sak
Remember Danity Kane? I know reality TV is trash but I thought P. Diddy was hilarious/ridiculous on that show. I also loved when those kids thought they cool with him and started calling him Puffy. Which leads me to wonder what would you call him if you ever met him? Mr. Combs? I like to mentally prepare...
TBW Recap: June 2011
Wouldn’t you know I made it through half the year and then destroyed another camera. Seriously what is it with myself and digital cameras? That is what I get for trying to hide a coke in my purse so I could save that $6.
The best part of June was my road trip with my friend Amy to Philadelphia. We had a great time. Between Independence Hall, NYC and almost seeing the cast of It’s...
TBW Recap: May 2011
Come May I finally decided to cut that ragweed hair of mine. The weather started heating up and Summah 2011 was just around the corner…
TBW Recap: April 2011
For some reason I decided to take a break during April and not take photos. I’m craZy like that. I did see Mary Poppins the broadway show that month and it was not enjoyable. April fools on me yo hoho.
Happy Holidays
Shirt: Urban / Sweater: Urban / Leggings: Target
Socks: Target / Boots: Steve Madden
I hope everyone has had or is having a nice holiday. I am sleepy and completely full of food which means it was successful. It hasn’t really felt like Christmas this year, maybe because I haven’t seen an ounce of snow this season....
Ghost Protocol
Sweater: LOFT / Jeans: Gap / Boots: Steve Madden / Bag: SAK / Necklace: F21
This afternoon I made these kids (my cousins) drive me to Nashville so I could see a special 8 minute preview of The Dark Knight Rises. Too bad it was only for IMAX and we were in the regular theatre…I need to learn to calm down and read things through. Oh well, after the movie was over I realized that I...
TBW Recap: March 2011
I’m on the road to TN today so another recap I will post. I’ll be back to posting outfits soon enough. Just by looking at most of these pictures I can tell what happened to me in March.
In March I:
-Turned 24, almost a quarter of a century
-Found my camera I lost in January
-Got glasses
-Saw Les Mis for the first time
-Celebrated one of my best friends birthday
-Saw the man...
TBW Recap: February 2011
Oh February, the month of L.O.V.E., I’m talking about love. Ashlee Simpson anyone? No one? Ok…my music taste is questionable, just like her marriage. OH! Unbelievably funny.
Anyhow let’s talk February. It wasn’t a leap year this year, according to my mother that is next year. The last leap year of earth. I should know I’m part of the Mayan culture. You learn...
TBW Recap: January 2011
Wouldn’t you know that my camera battery died and I couldn’t find my charger. However, when I was packing last night for Christmas I still hadn’t unpack my suitcase from Thanksgiving (procrastinator) and there my charger had been sitting, zipped up in a front pocket, for the last month. Why I can’t unpack the day I get home from a vacation is beyond me. So there you have...
Friday Catch Up
Sweater, shirt, jeans: GAP / Boots: thrifted
Hey everyone Christmas is next week. I can’t believe it, why does December always have to go by so fast? I feel like I never really get to enjoy it. I should be finishing wrapping gifts but instead I am catching up on episodes of It’s Always Sunny and The League. Jason Sudeikis returns as Schmitty....
O Christmas Tree
Dress: H&M / Leggings: Target / Shoes: Steve Madden / Ring: Vintage
I felt like a walking Christmas tree today. Look, I really like being festive. This is the one time of the year when you can wear red and green together and people will still judge you but it’s all part of the season cheer.
I got this dress maybe five years ago when I was in Boston. I still really love it....
Potluck Tuesday
Sweater: Gap / Jeans: Gap / Boots: thrifted
Today at work was our holiday potluck aka the worst day and the best day. It’s great because I didn’t have to feel bad about not packing my lunch this morning. It’s bad because I feel like I always eat more than I should and then I’m slow and not steady the rest of the day. I guess if I...
Cut It Out
Sweater: Target / Skirt: thrifted / Tights: Target / Necklace: F21 / Shoes: Enzo
I finally decided to stop complaining about my hair and actually do something about it. That is how you obtain a new hairdo. I feel a little Louise Brooks/flapper and I like it, I don’t think I have had short hair in almost three years. CRAZY. Plus my hair grows like a weed so I’m sure...
Belated Friday
Sweater: LOFT / Shirt: thrifted / Jeans: Gap / Flats: Gap / Necklace: Forever 21
And these are my photos from Friday. I really love this sweater, I found it this past Spring at LOFT for something around $20. Finally the weather is starting to cooperate so I can get some use out of it.
Do you ever have those moments when everything in your closet just feels ugh? Well, I was having one of...
Mental Hopscotch
Dress: Alice Temperley for Target, thrifted / Tights: Target / Boots: Aigner, thrifted
These photos are actually from Thursday, sorry it took me a few days to get them up. This is the time of the year when it feels like I have 20,000 things to do and no time to get any of it done, this includes sleeping.
Is it ok for me to get a little braggy for a second? Guess who some of the...
Cold & Delayed
Sweater: Target / Shirt: thrifted / Necklace: F21 / Jeans: Macys / Shoes: DSW
These photos were originally taken yesterday and I was going to up them up last night but I fell asleep. It happens, you know? I was at a game night last night, playing an intense game of apples to apples, I lost. Don’t worry, I will redeem myself.
I kind of created this outfit off of Kendi’s the...
SnowTORIous
Shirt: Gap / Skirt: thrifted / Jacket: thrifted / Scarf: Strawberry, NYC
Shoes: Miu Miu / Necklace: Marc Jacobs, gift
This time last year it was bitter cold and snowy. This year is is mildly cold and no snow, just rain. I know I’ll regret saying this come February but can we please get a little snow? It is the month of December, it is kind of...
The Saras Unite
Sweater: thrifted / Shirt: Old Navy / Jeans: Gap / Boots: Steve Madden
The other day my friend Sara sent me a message saying she would be in Columbus on Friday and wanted to meet up. Now, Sara and I go way back to when I attended Wright State, long before OSU was even in my future, oh memories. I haven’t seen her in…2 years? No matter the time it had been too long and...
One Year Ago Today
Cardigan Sweater: Forever 21
Shirt: H&M
Jeans: Gap
Boots: Steve Madden
Pin (on sleeve): Vintage
This is what I wore exactly one year ago today. The funny thing is that as soon as I saw these pictures I remember exactly what happened that day. First day of December (obvs), first snow of the season and my first visit to Thurmans. What a day, what a day. That is one of the things...
