Hello Everyone. This month I just stuck to items that I needed. I did pick up two items I didn't need. Which were the scarf. Which I couldn't leave them in the store. The price on them were to good to pass up. Plus now I have some leopard print in my life. The mascara was a splurge from my normal covergirl mascara. Which to tell you the truth this mascara is okay. I like that fact it last on my eyelashes. I don't care for the wand due to I can't use it to do my bottom lash. Due to the small and straight.

Ring finger is Sally Hansen Salon Insta Gel Strips in 420 Perfect Poison Bottom Left Corner~September 26th, 2014 Nicole by O.P.I in Challenge Red-y on top of that is Emmi - Easy UV polish in Red Glitter

Hello Everyone. It that time again for another monthly recap of my nails and the polish I used. Since we are in fall now. I went with some darker color. Which I have to tell you all I'm not a fan of black nail on me. So I don't see anymore black nail manicure in the feature. 
This month I tried out blue crackle nail polish. Which I have had this polish for 2 year and this was the first time it used it. I pair the blue with a silver polish to repentance the Detroit Lions. I also try out the insta gel strips again. Which I'm still disappoint in the fact you can only get one use out of them. This time I thought maybe if I tape the package back up I could used them again. Which it still was a no go. So I did what I did last time to reuse them. Which is add nail polish on your nails then slap the ista gel strip on them. For 10.99 these aren't worth my money. I did find out some dollar tree in the state sale them. I will say if I ever find them for a dollar. Then I will repurchase them but there no way I will pay more then a dollar for them. 
Also this month I try out the Emmi-Easy UV Polish in red glitter. I have to say I really like it with the red polish under it.  HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY.

Hello Everyone. I was planing on wearing my new skirt this week since it skirt week. I put it on this morning and couldn't figure out what to where with it. Special shoe. I'm thinking a pair of black flat with look good with the skirt but I don't own any right now. Due to I got rid of them because the were getting hole. I plan on getting a new pair here soon. Then I will be able to bust out my new skirts.
So with the new skirt out of the question. I decide to go with the midi skirt instead. Which this is the first time I have paired this cardigan with it. I have to tell you all. I love finding new ways to wear this skirt. Since the skirt and cardigan have a hint of grey in them. I paired a plain grey t-shirt under the cardigan. Which I haven't worn this grey t-shirt in almost two year.

Hello Everyone. I hope you all have a great weekend. My was a full weekend with hang out with friends. I wore this outfit to the sip and see. Which let me tell you all my car anxiety kick in big time yesterday. Which this is one thing I have never talked about on the blog before.
I have really bad car anxiety. What this mean is when I have no clue where I'm going or haven't driven that way before. My car anxiety kick in and I freak out a little bit. This only happen when I'm driving by myself. So yesterday I was going to the sip and see. I had the address in the GPS on my phone. Well at one point it had me turn down this road. When I got half way down the road. There was no longer a road. Due to it was being worked on. I had no where to go. So I had to do an u-turn and pray that I did't end up in a dig. After  I made the u-turn. The GPS kept telling me to go back that way. That's when my car anxiety kick in. I end up pulling off the side of the road. Turn off the radio and pull out the big GPS. Thinking it would send me a different way but it didn't. Now I'm at the point I'm late and was thinking to myself I should just go back home. Which I didn't.
I finally saw detour sign. That I end up taking. Which it lead me to a dirt road. That I had to take. As I was on the dirt road I was slipping and sliding. Do to the the fact it was raining out. Mind you I wasn't even driving that fast. After I got off the dirt road. I  was one regular road again and saw people car in the ditch do to they slide off the road. Due to Germany roads can be very curvy. Which at that time that was the type of road I was on.  When I finally made it to where I needed to be. The street the house was on was up a huge hill. Which they was no way I could handle driving up it. So I park on the street at the bottom of the hill. Then walked in the rain to the party. Which I had an okay time at.  When I got back home my friend text me to make sure I made it home safe. Due to I told them all the crazy drive I had to get there. I thought it was super nice of her to check in on me.

Blooper

Hello Everyone. Today I'm going to share with you pictures that didn't make it in to my daily post. Over the last couple of months. Some are just straight up funny. Then there some I think to myself. What in the world was I doing. As blogger we all have some kind of pictures like these. 

 Eye closed photo's. 

For some odd reason I close my eye a lot when taking blog photo's. It drive my husband up a wall. Also don't ask me what I was doing in the last photo because I have no idea. 

 Hair Flips/Fixing my hair.

I try my best to move my hair out from the front of my face. That way I can show off the earring I'm wearing. 

Open mouth pictures I wish I had an explanation for these photo's. I just don't. In no way or shape. I'm I trying to be Miley Cyrus. In other new when I have my mouth open I keep my eyes open. 

Blurry pictures Some time we can't get the camera in focus.

 Fixing myself Sometime I have to fix part of my outfit. Which that doesn't mean the camera stops rolling.

Last but not least two outfits. I took these photo for an outfit of the day post but they never made it to the blog. Due to I wasn't really happy with the outfits.

Which both time Old Navy was having a 30% off sale. Which was a score for me. Also what was awesome some of the items were on sale and I got the 30% off on top of the sale.  Another score in my book.
I also happen to get one item that has been on my wishlist for awhile. Which was the boyfriend cardigan. Which it is super comfortable. I did order mine in the tall women area of the website. That way it could be a little longer to wear with legging. 
If you plan on order these same items. I would go with you normal size on them. 
The graphic t-shirt I order in a size large. Which I could have total done a medium in them.
For the skirt I order a medium in it. Which I'm super happy about. A lot of the review on the site said to order a size down. Which I almost did but at the last minute I change it to a medium. Which it fit prefect on me. 
The grey vest is from the girl area Which I order a XXL in and it fit me like a glove with some extra room. 
The cardigan, white and black long sleeve. I order the meduim tall in. That way I can wear them with leggings. This fall and winter.
All of these items were purchase with Old Navy gift card I got for my birthday. Along with some birthday money from my Oma. Thank again to everyone who sent me gift for my birthday.
HAVE A GREAT TUESDAY.
