My New Favorite Thing.....











I went into DSW the other day, for those of you not in the know DSW is a big shoe store that sells brand name shoes at discount prices. I was in need of a new pair of running sneakers. A few weeks back I threw out my old pair, and although I went on the hunt for new ones, I just could not find a pair that I thought was cute and comfortable at the same time.
Some sneakers are cute, but they fit to tight or to short or to wide. It's really important to have the right combination of comfort, support and style. So, I came across this cute little all black Nike sneaker, I was in love! It's cute, it's neutral so it goes with everything in my wardrobe and it was cut smallllllllll...... Why! Why!
It's ok, I looked for the next size up, I wish that I wore a size 8 but I don't so the hunt was on for a size 10, that's right I said it a size 10. Couldn't find it! Moving on then, I came across a pair of Adidas, cute black and grey with a little splash of lite green.
I can work with the colors, tried them on and they were the best fitting sneakers I have ever placed on my feet. Ever! I have never worn Adidas before, but now they have a fan, so check them out.
Now, all I need to do is get back into running.....

Strong Like Bull!


May, brings flowers and for me another birthday.... If you're into the whole zodiac thing, then you might know that May is the month of the Taurus! If you're interested in the Taurine in your life here is a little info. The second sign in the Zodiac, Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and desire. Taurines are strong and solid, and Taurus governs practicality and security. It is a feminine sign and very magnetic.


Practical, reliable Taureans are great lovers of sensual pleasures, although they do tend to be rather stubborn, possessive and conservative. Firmly anchored in the material world, they have a fine grasp of what is needed in order to lead the good life. Of course, they are capable in emergencies, where they have an instinctive understanding of what to do, but under normal circumstances, no-one can force them into anything without due time for thought and consideration.


In a nut shell we love to look at and have beautiful things around us, including people. We make great loyal friends that you can count on, and if you need someone with nerves of steel in an emergency call on a Taurus!
Give your Taurus some flowers today!
