I got my new shoes on...

I'll be humming the Paolo Nutini "New Shoes" song all day well sporting my first ever pair of Tory Burch Reva's. I ended up getting the classic black with gold, but I have a feeling my next pair will be the Suede Navy. I've been been huge into shoes, also enjoy a nice looking pair but never jumped on the designer bandwagon. Well guess what, that has all changed! I also have a feeling these puppies are going to be addicting. Am I right?

It's the Patriot's fault, why you ask? I'll recap why;

This is how it all started, The Pats do not play until this evening so what else am I to do, I cleaned the house, laundry, did food shopping and went for a long run yesterday. Besides going to the gym or doing work I was out of idea's. I am trying to rest my hip as I over did it the last two days and it is killing me, I will be sidelined even longer if I push it. I promised myself I would not do ANY work this weekend even though I did bring work home with me this weekend, I truly needed the weekend off.

So I set off to Natick Collections this morning because if I'm going to be honest here, I miss Metro West A LOT. I use to live out that way before I moved to the city and I just loved it. I've even threatened to move in with E and her Ladybuys! Sorry sidetracked... Anywho, I figured I would just TRY on a pair of Reva's. I only really wanted to hit up the Apple Store for new ear buds, if you follow me on Twitter you know I have headphone problems, it's my ears...they're too small for the standard Apple ear buds. SERIOUSLY sidetracked...

This picture was taken for a little guess where Kimba is right now... and of course E guessed it correctly! Natick Collections was the right answer.

After a hard day of shopping I was ready to get back into Boston, I would miss city living way too much, I always remember that when I get out that way. Kickin' it with my new shoes and some football, blogging and tweeting. Happy Sunday indeed!

Ohhh I almost forgot, I stopped into JCrew to take a little peek at what they had, I was more or less looking for vneck t's for RJ, which do not exist ANYWHERE, unless you are looking for an mens XS then Banana has a ton of those. SIDETRACKED should really be the title of this post, gesh!

I scored this super cute jacket for $79.99, very very on sale. I knew I had a gift card in my wallet so I figured I would get it, and it's perfect for work and winter. I went and redeemed my gift card and figured i would have to pay the difference, nope I still have $125 left AFTER i got this jacket. How on earth did I have a $200 gift card in my possession without me knowing? So A successful trip if you ask me. It's tweed and has ruffles, what more could you ask for?

Oh and while driving on the Pike coming home some stooge gave me the finger. How's bout them apples.

That's all folks!

Sox = Spring

The Red Sox are on and I am ONE happy girl! 

Another All things Kimba moment:

I got these new shoe inserts that have grip on them as my shoes are a little to big after a few wears. So Monday I put them in my shoes and thought these are different but hey if they work then great. No real issues with them, just felt different, but what do I know, I've never used grips before. But thought the color blue was an odd color to have as the top of the insert, use to tan or black to match the shoe. Well I was cleaning out one of my desk drawers and found the package they came in (it was a 3 pack), for some reason I turned the package over and read the directions....SEEMS the "blue" side goes down. Yep, for three days I've had these fancy new inserts in upside down. 

Tomorrow I will try a new pair the right way, stay tuned.

Here I am

I hate when I go a week without blogging when I have things I could be blogging about. I can only post from home (or my phone) so it gets thrown by the wayside come 7pm when I walk in the door (that's on a good night)!

We had to go to Detroit this last weekend as MG's favorite Aunt passed away from cancer. It was a tough end to last week and a very sad weekend. But she is in heaven now and no longer suffering and in pain. Never easy though.

This week will fly by as Saturday Valentine's Day we (along with MG's parents, sister and BIL)are hosting a Valentine's Day Gala sponsored by his other sister's charity (whom passed away in 2000) We still have a lot of details to wrap up but it will be a fabulous evening with great food, drinks and a silent & live auction! I'll post a recap next week!

Emotional times indeed.

On a lighter note I purchased my first pair of Cole Haan Air Pump's! A few of you have blogged about how much you love them and I have been wanting to get a pair and finally did! I ordered them online so I sure hope they come soon! I can't wait!!!
Hope you have a good week!

Shoes shoes and more shoes

HOWDY...

I just bought the shoes for my gals, 6 pairs of shoes for $260! I used the 20% coupon and also they have free shipping!

Shoe Buy and the coupon is "FATHERSDAY08".

Wait did I just buy 6 pairs, but I only have 5 bridesmaids....how could I not buy myself a pair!

OH MY GOD, i just heard about Tim Russert that is so sad, I knew it was Sunday morning when I'd see him on Meet the Press.

Bridesmaid shoes II

Thanks to Ami for the link and coupon link!

Thoughts on these bad boys? Is the bling a little too much?

Bridesmaid Shoes help

Ideally I would like my bridesmaids to wear gold strappy sandals. 

I'm having a hard time finding a pair that are reasonably priced. 

Any idea's or thoughts?

Red, white and navy???

I had to return something at Target and end up getting these shoes to wear next weekend. I didn't have any "winter" shoes to wear with navy and these have a low heel so they're perfect. I got home to show Music Guy and it occurred to me i'm going to look like the American Flag! Navy dress, white sweater and red shoes. I'm too much even for myself sometimes!

Happy weekend! We had a busy busy day and now Music Guy's sister J and her hubby G are on there way over to watch the Steelers game. 

Enjoy!

What dust?

After a great workout this morning I spent a good part of the afternoon cleaning. And if I do say so myself we are pretty much dust free! Always a good feeling. But tomorrow I'm getting after my closet. That should be fun! HA!

We had a nice evening hanging out with the Hicks last night. They got married in September so needless to say there was a lot of wedding talk.

Speaking of weddings...do you have any suggestions on wedding shoes? What are good sites to check out? And some dos and don'ts?

Hope you're having a good weekend! I was a huge fan of seeing the sun today!
