Education???? and Tuesday Shoe Day

Tuesday Shoe Day! Say hello to these lovelies........ again, they are from Charlotte Russe. I believe they were around $17ish. They're two-toned and awesome! :) And I believe they make my legs look uber fab..... But what do I know!!! haha



And now for today's outfit................................

Outfit Deets:
Dress - *new* Target $22ish
Shoes - Charlotte Russe $17ish

So I bought this new dress from Target the other day... and I love it! :) It was simple, but I think it came together fabulously.

P.s. I'm considering going back to school to get a Master's in Education.......... I'm debating........ I'm trying to figure it out. But that is an option for me. I used to want to teach.... and then I changed my mind. And now, maybe I'm changing it again..... I don't know!!!! It's a tough decision..... I would either want to teach Business at a high school level (because I have a Bachelor's in International Business and I've been working in the industry) or I'd want to teach middle school age kids. So there's my dilemma...... If you're reading this and you're a teacher, let me know what you think about your profession and how I should go about figuring out all of this shenanigans! If you're not a teacher, what do you think anyway? :)

Ciao bellas!

P.s. Giveway is over on Friday.......... so ENTER NOW!! :)

I'm not quite sure why my shoes wouldn't show up in the pictures I was taking. Weirdddddd! Anywho, thanks for the comments on the last fitness post. Like I said, uninspired Fridays bring Fitness Fridays. Maybe that'll be a new post!!! :) Tuesday Shoe Day........ Fitness Friday...... oh man, new ideas, new possibilities! I love it! haha....

New Fitness Friday will now consist of some sort of Healthy food option, workout tip, workout outfit, etc. Also, I agree with those of you that commented that said that wearing something that makes you feel good about yourself can oftentimes motivate you to feel better after working out and maybe workout harder/longer etc. :)

P.s. Tomorrow night I'm making homemade chocolate truffles and chocolate peanut butter bars (for "gifts" for my bosses/coworkers/etc.) and I'll try to post pics of that as well along with some recipes! Enjoy!!!!!

Tuesday Shoe Day! ......... on Wednesday.....

These shoes are Jessica Simpson.... they're pretty sweet! And..... I got them for $14.95 at a consignment store!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.... that's all for Tuesday Shoe Day!

On another note, I'd like to thank all of the lovely comments on my last post in regards to the booty!!! I just want everyone to know that I'm not complaining at all... I really do love my booty. However, it just gets difficult occasionally because pants fit on the butt and thighs, but not the waist. Then you get that gaping waist when you sit down and sometimes your crack hangs out... haha. TMI? Sorry. Does anyone else have that problem?? And it's more of a proportion issue..... I'm not blessed with the tatas.... but I was blessed with the booty!!

"Little in the middle, but she got much back!!!" hahhaha.... Referencing that song makes me think of the report that I did in my Women In Media class 2 years ago..... Basically, I decided that the song "Baby Got Back" pretty much revolutionized the way that men viewed women. For the first time, in I don't know how long, a "famous" rapper said that it was OK for a woman not to look like what Cosmo wants you to be. "35/24/36..... only if she's 5'3"." haha.... But seriously though, men have always been interested in boobs. I mean, they still are obviously..... BUT, they are also interested in the booty now. How funny is it that now, butts are sometimes revered more than the tatas. (Clearly not complaining because that works in my favor... lol) Anyone can show they're cleav for everyone to see..... others can show they're sternum bone for everyone to see (hello me).... But... people don't show their booties. You're not walking around with your crack hanging out, or at least I hope you're not. And if you did, guys aren't walking around gawking at your "butt cleav"........ or maybe they are. Guys are retarded so who knows. :) Anywho, I'm getting off topic.... I just find it so interesting that different cultures have always idolized the booty. And those cultures also don't usually worry about weight gain, big thighs, the pooch that all women have, etc. Why is it acceptable in certain cultures/classes/societies, but not in others? Why is it that all of a sudden... men of all ages, sizes, cultures, backgrounds, etc.... are valuing a nice booty and some great legs more than say the chest? Is this making sense??? I dunno... it probably sounded way better in my report... but anywho.....

I guess either way I'm telling all of the boys out there............ "Stop looking at me Swan!!!" hahaa I'm dumb, and I apologize if you felt like I babbled for no reason in this post!!! :)

Tuesday REALLY IS SHOE DAY!!! from now on....

The new Tuesday Shoe Day!!! From now on, every Tuesday I will be featuring a pair of my shoes! That should probably keep every Tuesday kept solid for over a year! So it will be perfecto! :) So here we have the new pair of shoes that I just purchased on Saturday.........

WOOHOO!!!

WOOHOO!
WOOHOO!!!!!

Oh.......... and WOOHOO!!!! :)

Deets:
Fabulous shoes are from Bonton, but they are Guess! I got them 50% off, so I only paid $40.

These shoes are ridiculously comfortable!!! I was shocked! I have never been one to NOT buy a pair of shoes because I felt it would be too uncomfortable.... wanna know why? Because I don't care! If they're ridiculously awesome, and I love them so much... then I'm buying them. I'll deal with the pain of walking later on.............. But these shoes..... are. divine. The brown leather is like a stretch leather. It's awesome because it gives so that I'm not messing up my skin with crappy harsh leather. And surprisingly, the heel is reallyyyyyyyy high, BUT I don't feel like my feet are going to fall off after walking around on there. Therefore.......... WOOHOO!!
