Anonymous Comments

So I disabled the anonymous comment option, if you're anonymous and want to comment pony up and sign up! Unless you plan on being a jerk because I have no room for that, well maybe a little room, I'm tough!

The reason is I get A LOT of spam comments and then they get emailed to me and it's annoying. I don't use my personal email for sales or any shopping companies, mainly because I don't need to know when JCrew is doing their 20% or when Lilly has the most adorable adds to their line. But it would be a true ATK post if I didn't add Vineyard Vines is the only clothes site I get emails from. Sue me.

Sorry, back to my point. I use my phone as my alarm clock, yes, I'm an adult and use my phone as my alarm. And my phone buzzes when I get emails, so if I get an email in the middle of the night more then likely it will wake me up. Well maybe not really wake me up, but it has and it's annoying. So if some spammer leaves a comment it will email me and also if I get an email on my phone I know it's something good because I have tried to weed out the crap emails. And if I can eliminate the let down of getting a crap email then that's what I'm going to do.

Happy you asked?!

Haha, if I start to get random emails to my personal email because of this post you're all going to get it! :)

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!

Wrap it up

If you look at these three pictures you can tell I'm a huge scarves! And if you also look at these pictures I tend to pair navy and white together.

How long do you think this trend will last? Are you a fan? I can sure tell you i'm going to keep it alive even after it's gone!

Hanging in Maine this fall; light boatneck cashmere JCrew sweater (navy)
Honeymoon; embossed JCrew dress

Wedding in Newport; Cotten Candy JCrew party dress

The theme here is navy, white and JCrew. I need to get out more!

One look I do not have pictured here is when I wear it to work with a suit and never take it off. Keeps me nice and toasty! Though it was meant to be worn just when I'm outside!

Dear JCrew,

I was about to post a not so nice message to you as I ordered a sweater last week while you offered your 20% off and free shipping and never got a conformation email it shipped. Normally I would be ok with it as it was a simple white cardigan and really you can find them anywhere. The issues would have been I wanted this exact one,


as I'm wearing my navy Lyndsey dress. Get it white and navy...my colors. (yes people I am "that" bride who is going to sport her wedding colors to her wedding related get together)



While tapping away at my desk the lovely mail lady came and delivered my sweater. No conformation email just the package and while I was starting to wonder if you stood me up, you found the right time to come through. So thanks! And thanks to J for the JCrew gift card and thank you to Preppy Sue for the free shipping code. Such a group effort for one simple white sweater.

Now that I got that out of the way.

Big fan of this week being over, coming back on Wednesday threw me for a loop. Not much planned for the weekend and by that I mean I didn't plan anything because I have so much I need to get done before next weekend. I have my family coming in Thursday, my MOH Liane and her fiance are coming in Friday. I can't wait, she has never been to Boston and it'll be nice to finally be able to show her where I've been for the last 6 years.

Saturday we have to finish up our registry and we have lunch plans. Our gym is suppose to be open so that's a must. Also Saturday there is a surprise 30th birthday party for a friend of ours we might attend. How's that for no plans, I'm doomed! :)

I'm about to book our trolley for the wedding party, it was really the only why we could all travel together and enjoy ourselves. It will be used from the church to the beach for pictures and then to the club. I'm wondering if it's worth it, $1000 bucks for that. I guess I need a little more time to think about it. Thoughts?

Dear JCrew,

When this jacket goes on sale, can you do my a solid and shoot me an email?/!

xo,

Kimba

E, Saturday's outfit might have been worse

HELLO SOX FANS!!!!

80'...check...Sail Loft...check....

I was so happy when I got home yesterday my gal Suz sent me the book Summer Sisters by Judy Blume. Who doesn't love a book that is based on the beach on the Vineyard.

It's suppose to be very nice all week in Boston. To kick off our 80 degree week I'm meeting J and Kateson at the Sail Loft after work. Any place on the water with a deck is fine by me. Let alone a place that has a deck that sits over the water!

And while typing this the mailroom just dropped off my JCrew order. Woohoo!!!

Hopefully you all have wonderful weather also!!!!

20% I got the best of you...

As I'm sure you all saw, JCrew did their 20% off their sale items. See below for the goodies I was able to trap in my shopping bag and buy before they were taken out. (Fingers crossed)
Cute white boatneck sweater i already have it in navy and now i have it in black and white, color Kimba color.

And these cute Critter chino shorts I'm a little scared on their fit but we'll just have to wait and see!

Also I'm noticing under the lights here in at my desk that my self tanner ends right at my wrist as if I was wearing gloves when I put it on. That's hot.

Dear JCrew

"we wish we'd made more of this style.it SOLD OUT much faster than expected.
we apologize for the inconvenience"

THEN TAKE IT OFF YOUR DAMN SITE

Its karma Earl

I had planned on walking to work this morning but decided against it and well I stepped on the bus and took a seat next to a guy to only realize that he smelled like mothballs. Serves me right for taking public trans on a sunny April morn. Moving right along!

Thanks to my gal CMB I found a great birthday gift for J (Music Guy's sister). Yep it's the lobster makeup bag. Her fiance's family has a place in Maine and it would be a perfect addition when they weekend up there.

Thank you for all your kind comments, I'm very much looking forward to Saturday. One of my fab bridesmaids Sara will be accompanying me. And you can be sure she will pick out the not so Kimba dress have me try it on and convince the sales woman it's the one and we'll be back with a check. Oh and have pictures from every angle just as my blogging ladies would hope for! She's a gem! :)
