A kind of dressed up jeans and a sweater look here. Honestly, I was pmsing, tired and just wanted to wear something loose and comfortable so I threw on my favorite loose jeans and an old sweater the husband doesn’t wear anymore. Obviously it was a bit too casual for work so I tossed on some accessories to dress it up a bit and ran out the door. And I was comfy, all. day. long. Mission accomplished.
I was so excited Friday afternoon when I returned home to our new bar cabinet, and reason to finish decorating the dining room, until I checked my email and realized I missed a great opportunity with the Today Show {a week-long DIY segment} because I had to be at the gallery all day. And I’m not going to lie, I was really upset about it. While it was a really last minute request, I replied early in the morning stating my interest but that I’d be out all day and would send the required few lines of text by the end of the day. But it was too late. And I kicked myself for staying in my past life while my present life was calling. Just thinking about it again frustrates me on like 5 different levels *sigh* but my absence opened a spot for another DIY blogger to shine and that makes me happy.
* UPDATE: Apparently, they did include my lace halter bustier DIY! Crazy… the email response I got was that I missed the time cut off. Go figure! Here’s the DIY Today Feature. I’m in the photo slideshow at the bottom among other fab DIY bloggers.
* I’m choosing a winner tomorrow for a $40 Target giftcard & fun craft supplies so follow this link to leave a comment if you haven’t yet.
Happy Monday!
