#1 with a bullet.


let me start by saying that i am not going to be meeting all you fabulous bloggers and i'm bummed. hubby forgot to put our appt. with a healer on the calendar, and i need all the healing i can get. seriously! we do have to have a meet up soon though.

today husband had a day off, which is amazing and rare... so we walked down hollywood blvd. to get mani's and pedi's. walking down the blvd. always means danger if i'm involved. it is so inspiring with all the stripper stores, heavy metal, and souvenir shops. one would not think these stores would be inspiring but you find the most random stuff. so today playmates was having a sale on all their stripper shoes. $10-30. instant adrenaline rush. but bummed because the cash flow is ultra low right now, i did get a pair of $25 boots that i love, and i am wearing in this post. i may be wrong on this, but i usually have good instincts on predicting what is going to be trending soon and although at first i thought the heel on these boots were slightly atrocious, i now think they are kick ass and also think we will be seeing more heels like this soon.

the bullet belt was inspired from lena at quality rivets, she was rocking a different style of bullet belt, but it looked so hot on her, i couldn't resist getting one of my own. i need my own stylist, because i don't like where the belt is hitting on the shorts, i always find these things that drive me crazy, but i guess that is just the wardrobe stylist in me. okay so i ordered the belt on ebay, because it was a bit cheaper, and truth is sometimes i am too lazy to walk two blocks to the blvd. so the bullet belt arrived (not) as an empty box in my mail. seriously. so i had to go through this whole process, with the sellers. but they were ultra cool and sent me another. yay!

also, one thing. it is getting really warm here in the l to the a. which means tessa is wearing less and less clothing every day. i am ultra sorry if my posts get slightly boring, because of this. but i've got to be honest with you, i love the warmth and would take it over cold any day. in fact i plan on moving to mexico and can't wait to spend every day in a bathing suit. mind you i am going to have to find some rockin' accessories. i hope you are all enjoying your weekend. i haven't gotten a chance to get to my blogs and respond to comments today, but will try catching up tomorrow. love to all.

  8. First off, you're always gorgeou sbut damn! When you smile you're so pretty.

    I really love that belt. It contrasts so nicely with the white of the swimsuit. And those boots! Those heels are so bizarre and intriguing. I like the way it makes the entire boot seem to have these curves.

    How much was the belt? I would love to have one but before I get my hopes up I should probably see if it fits my budget!
