miscellany monday

happy monday everyone – i’ve added my random ramblings to carissa’s miscellany monday party!  check out carissa’s blog here and join in on the fun. 

{one} anthro tag sale.  most of you may already know by now that anthropologie is starting their semi-annual tag sale tomorrow.  this morning i received a phone call from my local store inviting me to the store at 9am for the start of the sale.  i wish i could make it into the store, but i won’t be able to miss work.  it’s pretty cool that they are opening up the stores one hour early for anthro members only.  i’m really looking forward to seeing what items get marked down (first and seconds).  what items are you looking forward to seeing get marked down? 

{two} race recap.  i ran in couple of 5k races last month and i never posted my recaps.  here are the highlights from those races.  i was very happy with this first race because it was my fastest time ever for a 5k. this race was a primarily a women’s 5k and it was held on saturday, april 7th.  there were 271 total race finishers and 235 female finishers.  i came in 5th in my age group and i placed 31st overall among all the female finishers.  my official chip time was 26:27.  the next race is a corporate run where most of the local companies create teams specifically for this race.   i convinced some of my co-workers to run this year and we had a nice turn out for an evening race.  this race was on thursday, april 12th.  there were 3092 total race finishers and 1707 female finishers.   in this race i placed 247th overall among all the female finishers and my official chip time was 27:57.  i’m pretty happy with that time too. 

{three} season finales.  have any of you been surprised by the season finales so far? last night i watched “once upon a time” (shocker) and desperate housewives (kind of a let down).  did any of you watch either of these shows?  what did you think? i loved the ending of “how i met your mother” and “gossip girl” which aired earlier tonight.  i also just got finished watching “smash” and i loved the finale. i can’t wait to see what’s in store next season.   are you looking forward to any season finales out there or did you have a favorite season finale so far?

Fresh Picks to Follow – Mother’s Day Gift Guide



Happy Saturday everyone!  I hope that you all are having a wonderful weekend so far. I’m currently at my local car dealership waiting for an oil change.  This is one my most dreaded chores that I have to deal with on the weekends…luckily it’s only every 5,000 miles.  I really hope that I only have to wait for the hour and fifteen minutes that they quoted me. Later today, I’m meeting up with my mother to treat her to lunch for Mother’s Day and do a little shopping.  I’m really looking forward to spending some time with my mom.  Have you figured out what to get your mother for Mother’s day yet?  No?  Well I’ve created a mother’s day gift guide for all of you that struggle to find the right gift for your mom.  I always have a tough time figuring out what to get my mother because she literally has everything.  It gets harder and harder each year to be more creative than the last.  Anyways, check out my top 10 Mother’s Day gift ideas for this week’s Fresh Picks to Follow.  How do you plan to celebrate your mother this year?

Moody Style: A Sunny Climate


Hi everyone!  I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend and that you are off to a great start so far this week.   I just wanted to post a few pictures of one of the outfits that I wore while visiting Savannah.  Can you believe that this was the first time that I wore the dress?  I don’t know it took me so long to wear it before now.  I really love how bright and cheery the dress makes me look.  It’s a pretty, feminine dress perfect for the summer.  And I think that the little birds all over the yellow skirt really adds a little something extra to the look.  Did any of you buy this dress last year? What do you think about this dress?

{Dresss: Anthropologie Sunny Soiree Dress; 
Sweater: Anthropologie Climate Control Cardi;
Earrings: Pearls (gifted); Shoes: Steve Madden Fantasik (platforms) 
and old Chinese Laundry (flats}
