song.of.the.day.

today's song of the day is one of my personal favorites...i can listen to this song over & over again...i first heard it while watching an episode of one of myfavorite shows Scrubs....so today's song is..


Half a World Away by R.E.M.

I found this live verison from 1991..usually i am not a fan of live verisons unless they sound exactly like the recorded verison & after listening to this, they sound pretty amazing..enjoy & go download this song!

starbucks SECRET menu....

i lalala loveee starbucks....it's been my favorite forever...they know me at my local SB...my usual drink is a grande non fat carmel macchiato with extra carmel sauce..not upside down...oh yess its so delicious..go try it, you can thank me later...however i found this secret menu of drinks that SB does make but are not on the menu...thought you'd like a taste....

COLORED PANTS!

right now a hot trend is colored pants! they're fun & sassy and it gives you something different to wear instead of jeans or black skinnys...so now you can add some color into that white,grey & black wardrobe....the look on the left is one of my favorites! i am in LOVE with anything nautical...red pants w a blue striped shirt i just die....however if you're iffy about the stripes & the blue blazer, or you just don't have a blue blazer but still want to complete the look you can try a white or grey tee & a light colored jean jacket with the red pants...its more of a simple look if you feel the red pants are enough..and if you dare you can try a black leather jacket....

if red is just too bright for you, try the green color below...it's defiantly not as bright as the red but still can give your outfit a touch of color...these pants are paired with a blush color blouse. you don't have to stick to that color or style of shirt but i would stick to neutrals when matching with these pants...you don't want to look like a clown now do you?

so if the bright colored pants are not your style you can always go for a lighter look with these pale pink pants...but don't start wearing them till spring & summer..they're not really right for winter...but with these pale pants you will still have some color & they can be paired with any light colored blouse. i especially like the lace top with these pants...it adds such a girly feel too it....      

and lastly if you really feel you don't want to do a colored pant but still wanna stay in style you can always do a navy pant. its defiantly not as bold or out there but it's still different from the normal jeans & black skinnys. navy pants can be worn with any color..besides black & brown (thats just my opinion though)...its especially cute with a touch of yellow..gives a very anthro feel...

                      

but don't stress when trying to coordinate with your colored pants. what helps me is when i buy a certain piece like colored pants i will make sure i have a few go to shirts to go with them, its helps ease the anxiety when going through my closet wondering what the hell am i going to wear with these pants....   go have fun & add some bold color to your life!
