WINNER ANNOUNCED! -What I Wore Wednesday and maurices $50 Gift Card giveaway..

Giveaway is closed and winner is announced – congrats!!!

*******

We do not have cable television. I know. Cry for me.

 

Also my favorite show is the 10pm news. I then go to bed right after Jay Leno’s monologue.

 

Do I sound like your mother? Good. Now go clean your room! And comb that hair!

 

Anyway, because of the wonder of “the internets” I don’t really need cable to watch some of my favorite shows.

 

One show I must watch each week is Project Runway.

 

I love fashion, I love reality TV, and I love Tim Gunn.

So I was thrilled to attend and tweet out the Christopher Straub’s Runway Show at the Mall of America to premiere his new collection for maurices!

*******

Here’s what I wore – because isn’t that what this post is kind of about?

 

Red cardigan – Target from last year

Corduroy dress – Anthropologie from last Fall

Black leather flower belt – Anthropologie this Fall

Black leggings – Target

Black boots – from Nine West from like 1996 – seriously..don’t tell anyone

Scarf – local boutique

Earrings – Target

Haircut – NEEDED BADLY! Please bring scissors stat

*********

WIN IT!

And now I have a  maurices $50 Gift Card for one of my readers! Check out Christopher’s new collection, or buy some holiday gifts..or maybe something for me!

    I’ll be honest… I don’t watch reality TV shows. Does the Food Network count? If so, then I watch that a lot.
    Although I did watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy when it was on… hilarious!

    I haven’t seen a Maurices since I lived in Menomonie [yep, WI, not far from you, woman!]
    They’re not a New England store apparently.
    Reality t.v. – Intervention or Hoarders. Says a lot about a person, doesn’t it.

    Project Runway is one of the shows that my wife has as an absolute “must watch,” and I’ll even admit that I want adopt Tim Gunn as my uncle.

    That is a very funky scarf.

    I’m really embarrassed to admit how much Reality TV I watch.

    Because my kids are beyond the age of “childhood” television and our family time at night is snuggling on the couch as a family watching…

    CRAP.

    But seriously. After a day of school, homework, karate and (of course of course of course) reading, we usually settle in for one hour of television each night. And the only thing we can all agree on that everyone’s willing to watch is Reality TV.

    So. Are you ready?

    As a family, we will watch The Amazing Race, Survivor, The Biggest Loser, Top Chef, Hell’s Kitchen and pretty much anything on HGTV, Travel Channel or TLC.

    I know this sounds like a lot but some of these shows are seasonal and it’s really only like one hour a day. Usually. Sometimes.

    Also, for full disclosure, my daughter and I (without the boys) watch Project Runway, Say Yes to the Dress, Toddlers & Tiaras and America’s Next Top Model.

    Please don’t hate me or call CPS. We discuss why some of these shows are ridiculous and why the some of the people on them are crazy and/or vapid.

    It’s quality bonding time. And we don’t shop.

    Okay. Go ahead and judge me.

    But I follow you on Facebook and Twitter and I subscribe to your blog and you are really pretty. So.

    XO

    Why is it that when I look at a beautiful woman such as yourself I think to myself, “Her hair is just perfect.” And the next thing I hear or read is, Haircut – NEEDED BADLY! Please bring scissors stat??????????

    I wish I knew how to put a photo on here next to my comment. Of course it would be one from years ago when I actually had hair myself.
