We're all sinking for our sins Unless grace be the wind To fill our sails

Since I didn't do my weheartit Wordless Wednesday yesterday (oops), I'll start off today's post with a few of my favorites from the site. Next week I'll be on top of things. ;)

( from weheartit.com; i would give credit to the original photographers but it doesn't post that)
(up up & away!)


(I'll be there so soon - can't wait!)

(spring is officially here this weekend!)


Lovely, eh?

Also lovely, the amazing deals I got today at Wal-Mart of all places!!! I am so stoked about them, it's almost ridiculous. Okay, not almost, it probably is. haha I'm such a sucker for cute clothes at even cuter prices. My Mom & I went to Wally World with the intentions of looking for swimsuits (a one piece for the gym) & buying ingredients for the delish taquitos I made for dinner (with the help of my Mom & bro).
Little did I know I would find awesome deals on some cute clothes. Get this, 2 of them are the Miley Cyrus line. Before you judge me, you have to admit they're cute. That Miley Cyrus knows what she's doing (she doesn't really design them anyways, they just slap her name on it).

So here they are:

(extra long black cardigan - $5. I was super excited about this one because I've been wanting one of those really long cardigans for awhile.)

(black sequined Miley Cyrus tank top - $3)

(sequins detail)

(cream colored button-up Miley Cyrus sweater vest - $3. I can't wait to wear this one!)

(striped cream colored cotton shirt - $3. This one would be good for a beach cover-up.)

P.S. The recipe I used for the taquitos tonight can be found here. They were very yummy & everyone liked them!

EDIT: I don't know why the images are so big; I selected the small size for the ones from weheartit. I don't know how to adjust the size to make them smaller, so bear with me! I used to be able to click the image and make it smaller or larger using the little arrow thing (no idea what it's called). It doesn't let me do that anymore though. I can't even click the image. Hmm...maybe it has something to do with my browser, Google Chrome.

I just finished watching the latest episode of this season's Project Runway. Have I mentioned how much I love that show? Oh man, so great. One of the best reality shows too because there's not that much drama between the contestants, and the show seems to stay true to the contest. It's about the designer's craftsmanship and artistry, instead of who they got into a fight with last week. Anyways, I just wanted to say Jay made me so happy! He was finished with his dress, and helped Ben with his garment. I thought that was so awesome. Kindness is underrated and not something that's very popular, especially in the fashion industry it seems.
If I saw Jay on the street, I'd give him a hug. For being nice, and because he's so darn cute! haha Like a teddy bear.

2 things:
1) I have been feeling so productive & on top of things lately, especially my finances. It feels really good. I think I only ate out once last week on my own money. Here's a glimpse into my finances:
top 4 things normally eating my $$$ faster than a PMSing woman eats chocolate:
1. eating out
2. coffee
3. beads/jewelry supplies
4. clothes
Hopefully that will be changing. Seems to be already. I haven't bought new clothes in awhile. Hooray!

2) Remember that potential new job I was talking about earlier here? Well, I did the volunteer thing last Tuesday. It was okay, time went by quickly, and the 'work' wasn't hard at all. I think I was alright, but I'm not so sure about the boss' feelings towards me/my performance. I was under the impression from their facial expressions, some comments, and lack of enthusiasm for me that they just weren't feeling me. Perhaps the boss had a bad day though, and just overall wasn't in a good mood, who knows. All that was said when I was done was "I'll be in contact with you." I haven't heard from them yet. hmm... Maybe they sensed my nervousness, like a dog smells fear. haha Could be true.
All that I did was scan cards and greet guests. Honestly, kind of boring. It did go by quickly, like I said, but I've always enjoyed work where I can see a finished product, an end result, where I'm actively doing something. I was sitting on a chair scanning membership cards. Woohoo! (sarcasm) haha Not very productive in my opinion.

But the good thing out of all of this, is that I am getting more hours at my current job, which could very well (& hopefully) nullify my need for a 2nd job. Yayyy!!!

Question of the day:
I'm thinking of being adventurous and making taquitos.
Has anyone ever made them before & used an awesome recipe they'd like to share with me?
I found one, which I might use, but I'm open to suggestions.

~~~
Also, I've discovered weheartit.com.
That site is full of beautiful pictures & inspiration.
I stumbled upon it from following Juliana @ A blonde walks into a blog. She uses pictures from the site a lot. And she's an awesome blogger.
So, I've decided to do a
weheartit Wordless Wednesday
every week now, to share some of my favorites from the site with you guys. :)
So make sure you tune in Wednesday to check it out!

Much love dahlings!
& I have new followers!! Don't be shy - comments make my day. Truly.
