My Happy Color

My favorite color has been purple since I was a tot, but I think purple may have finally been replaced by new happy color . . . turquoise!

Shirt & Tank: Target

Black Skinnies: Old Navy

Nude Pumps: 6pm.com

Turquoise makes me think of the bright blue sky and cyrstal clear waters at the beach, so it definitely brings to mind happy thoughts and memories.  It also goes with any color!  Red, pink, yellow, navy blue, brown, black, white . . . they all look pretty fabulous with turquoise!

So, what is your happy color and what do it make you think of??

Manic Mondays Make Me Happy

Why is that, you ask. Well, this crazily insane Manic Monday just so happens to mark the beginning of a three-day work week! That's right, in a few short days, I'm leavin' on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again...  Wait, actually, I'm leaving on a boat. And I'll be back Monday, but you know, I just can't help but sing whatever silly song pops into my head because I'm just so excited! ;)
 

Shirt & Cardi combo: Bealls

Tank: Maurices

Did y'all notice that my hair is kind of curly? I usually use a blowdryer and straightener every day. And this is what it looks like when I just let it air dry. It's not a look I like to go for often, but every once in a while, it's kind of fun. =)

 

You want to know what I'm most excited about?  There's no point in worrying or stressing about anything while I'm on the cruise, because I can't do anything about it! I should be doing school work? Oh, well, no internet access on the ship, so I won't even worry about it!  Laundry needs to be done? Oh, well, the Hubs will get around to it while I'm gone!  I'm not pleasing people at work? Oh, well, I'm not there right now, so what can I do about it?  

 

My grand plans are to sit on the sundeck and immerse myself in a good book. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I just want a silly, fun vacation read. Nothing too serious or depressing. =)

 

Ring: Alyssa's Antique Depot

I got this ring from a local antique/consignment shop for only $2.99! I had no idea how much cute jewelry they had! I have a feeling I'll be going back for more soon. ;) And maybe I'll even pick up a little something for my February giveaway!  Did you guys catch that? ;)  I'm planning a little something for next month to celebrate one whole year of blogging and to thank y'all for being so awesome! =)
