Blogging Virgin

Welcome to my blog!  I never thought I would be a "blogger" and assumed it would be something I picked up later in life when I had a baby and wanted to share pictures and moments with friends and family (which there is nothing wrong with, I love living vicariously through my friends with kids).  Recently though I have noticed many girls are blogging about great shopping finds, crafts they have made, events, etc. I have really enjoyed reading these and decided I would give blogging a chance.  Additionally I figured this is a great way for me to communicate with my family (especially you Mom) about what I am up to.  I promise to try to post interesting things and not my daily rants running through my head.  I want to be the blog you read that makes you laugh or inspires you with something.  My only request is you don't take anything I say as "offensive" or judge me. If one chooses to read someones blog you are electing to enter their territory.

So this past weekend was fabulous - it included having my hair highlighted, shopping, a family dinner, going out for a few drinks, and a hockey game.  I could write a lot about each activity but won't bore you with the details.  The reason this weekend was even better is I got to spend more time with my boyfriend Matt (who I promised I wouldn't mention much on my blog, so yes I do have a boyfriend, but you won't really hear anything about him).  He is at the peak of Audit busy season, therefore most weekends he is at the office working and we don't go out.


My favorite purchase from the weekend:

I have become obsessed with Tory Burch flats.  I bought my first pair last July, and after this week I finally had to retire them.  After a blowout on each shoe their life was over.  The leopard is slightly out there for me, but I love them because they will match anything.  I am the typical Auditor who wears a lot of black/grey (and a few pieces of light pink), but bought these to make my outfits a little more fun.  I have realized it is worth splurging a little on shoes, especially on those days I throw my hair up in a pony and feel dressed down at work.  A pair of nice shoes makes you feel slightly better.

Well that is it for tonight, I need to clean the house and my shoes.  I have been sitting here smelling something foul, and realized I stepped in a treat left by a dog in the park while I was running.  At least the day went great overall for a Monday!
