College Colors Day

Uploaded from the Photobucket iPhone App

Today I am sporting an odd mixture of Carolina blue and Husker Red. Hence, no outfit photo for you! But I could not decide. I may be living in Tarheel country, but I will be cheering on my alma mater this weekend from afar! 

What colors are you sporting today? Going to any games this weekend? I'd love to cheer on your team too! You can find me sitting in 90 degree weather as the Tarheels take on Elon this weekend! Good luck to all of your teams!

Batman

Yes, you read that right. Post Title: Batman. I'm going to link up this post with It's OK Thursday, because I keep telling myself "It's OK!"

It's OK:

That my husband and I got into a little argument this past weekend.

That it was fueled by lack of sleep, grumpiness and hormones

That as my husband's apology he surprised me the next night by taking me to....The Avengers.


Yes, The Avengers. So this is what I believe to be his thought process....

Before the fight broke out between us, we had a lovely evening finally viewing The Dark Night Rises. I love Batman, I always have. The movie was great! After the movie, on our drive home I went on and on about how much I've always like Batman. How much I thought the movie was SO cool, I'd see it again. He didn't know any of this about me. How could his girly girl wife be soooo into a superhero? So I thought we probably should go home and watch The Dark Night, just to refresh the story line. Well then completely off topic....our fight broke out.

SO the thought process....as an apology, he surprised me with The Avengers because I believe he now thinks his wife is some crazy Superhero loving groupie. And that is just not true. The Avengers was ok, I was more pumped to spend some quality time with my man. Well he fell asleep during the movie...

But the moral of the story, I'm setting the record straight, I'm not a superhero junkie. I just like batman. That is it. That is all. And to share with you a fun photo. My love for batman started young....with my sidekick Marlo. My sister. I'm sure she'll be ecstatic I'm sharing this with you. Me Batman. Marlo Robin.


Now you can all laugh and enjoy your Thursdays. No, I don't wear anymore Batman accessories or costumes of any kind. Hence, no Batman outfit post. And I don't live amongst Batman posters or paraphernalia of any kind.

Its Ok Thursdays

Dress: 12th Street by Cynthia Vincent via TJ Maxx {outstanding find!} | Shoes: Guess {on great sale!} | Necklace: Baublebar {this one no longer online, similar here}| Watch: Michael Kors | Glasses: Calvin Klein {very similar here}


Linking up with Marionberry Style for The Trend of the Month Challenge: Statement Necklaces 

This is my favorite statement necklace I own. The metal is neutral enough to wear with lots of looks, yet the overall necklace is stunning. Baublebar does a wonderful job with their accessories. If you haven't ever tried Baublebar before, your first purchase is eligible for $10 off! You can't beat that.

I believe statement necklaces can be worn with a plain tshirt or a glamorous dress. They will be whatever you need them to be for your outfit. I've even seen a few looks where they double up on statement necklaces and it looks fantastic!
