What a night...

I dragged myself home a few hours ago...
You see, it was quite an evening! Our show opened yesterday night, and after the curtain came down there was a reception...
And boy did I have fun! Not only was the performance AMAZING, but I got to wear a fancy dress, high heels, sparkly jewelry... and I was just doing my job!
But now I'm tired and all I want to do it stay in bed all day! But since that's not an option, I plan on pulling myself together and schlepping myself into work. And while it may be tough to stay awake, the excitement from last night will certainly carry me through the day!

Thanks for stopping by- I hope you have a great day (and I'll post the reviews as soon as they're out)!

Packing up for a long day

I'm not exactly a morning person, so I like to pack the items I'll need for the day the night before. Most Sunday nights I'm busy packing a lunch or paperwork I've done over the weekend... but last night was different.
Last night I packed up my favorite peep-toe heels...
And a pair of sparkly earrings for an event I'm attending at work today. I have to admit, I love the fact my job requires me to attend fancy dinners and performances!
Tonight's event is a pretty big deal, so I even stopped by my local nail salon for a quick manicure.
Of course, I picked another one of the OPI: Swiss collections: Yodel Me On My Cell...
Isn't it pretty?
Well, I'd better get going- it's going to be a long day! I hope you had a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!

If the shoe fits...

I went shopping the other day.
When I was in Union Square, I decided it was time to upgrade my footwear. So, I made my way to the second floor...
And found myself before the glory that is DSW!
How great is this store? Of course, once I walked in I immediately gravitated to these...
And then the heavens opened as I looked farther down the aisle- how many pairs of galoshes can one girl own without being considered "weird"?
And while I at least wear galoshes in my real life, there are other shoes that I don't think I can justify. However, I picked out a few pairs that I should probably buy "just in case"- you never know when the perfect shoes will come in handy! For example, I would wear these if I ever decided to be Errol Flynn for Halloween.
And I would wear these whenever I went mountain climbing.
These would be perfect if I had a weekend trip to Nantucket...
While these would be perfect with ANYTHING!
And while it's fun to pick out "dream" shoes, at the end of a long day my feet long for sensible things like this:
So maybe I can compromise with something sparkly and comfy!
And as I made my way towards the check out, I just had to snap a photo for my grandma...
Every summer she would treat us grand kids to a new pair of moccasins (I remember one summer when I got an awesome red pair). And now, Minnetonkas are lining the shelves of the shoes stores in NYC... go figure!
So there you have it- a trip to a discount shoe store in NYC... thrilling, wasn't it?
Thank you for stopping by- I hope you have a great day!
