Bring your sexy back

Now there is a racy title for a not so racy blog. Hope you enjoy the new template. Everyone else had changed for the new year and I was just giving in to peer pressure. To give in to your own peer pressure click here or check out the button in the upper left that says Delightful Dots.

As I was getting ready to go out to dinner tonight with JaDee and Olivia. The boys opted for Ramen and a night of DS playing so we let them stay in. I was changing out of my 2 day worn sweats and decided to try to spice it up a bit. There was in fact a heat wave of sorts here in the Great White North and it actually got above 0. Maybe I could wear something a little sexy.

Hmmmmm what do I have in my suitcase...turtlenecks (4), cardigans to go on top of turtlenecks (several), Jeans (4), navy, olive or khaki pants, Uggs, Keens, or Born shoes and 2 pair of riding style boots i got for 70% off on my birthday, plus an assortment of long sleeved T's in various sexy colors like black and orange. A couple even have stripes. wow. I have a serious lack of an edgy wardrobe.

And really, is 0 degrees really all that warm?

I was thinking I was not so sexy with those frumpy I-live-in-Alaska-now outfits. Oh wait...those outfits came with me from Utah. I wasn't sexy then either!

I have always had this romanticized dream of moving to Alaska and living in some remote, yet charming town (like in that show with that Anne Heche woman)with magnificent scenery. I only have this dream in the summer, because right now it is 0 degrees in Minnesota and I have no desire to live here, much less travel further North!
PS, I love your moose counter!

I love it! My maternity wardrobe has a serious lack of sexy as well! I posted a very long comment on your previous post, feel free to read it if you want. I just kept writing... again, I'm signed in as Mitch, but it's Cara of course.

Nicole, Sexy is an attitude not an outfit. I don't care if you are wearing longjohns 4 shirts 2 pants and your not so wonderful but very warm lumber jack coat on (this is what I would wear in AK), you have to have the attitude. And that my friend I know you have! Keep up the search for warm sexy clothes for your Hot Dates on zero degree nights!

Hugs!

Okay, I soooo know how you feel!!! In fact, it's 5:30 and I'm still in my pajamas because I didn't have anything that I could put on that I didn't want to get dirty, just in case, I wanted to wear it out "sometime". I'm lame!

A little quote or two...

“There is in every true woman's heart, a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity, but which kindles up and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.” -Washington Irving

"Education enriches the mind and enlightens the
soul," --Nicole Moncur 2008

"Reading can be dangerous." --Diane Setterfield, The Thirteenth Tale


BOOK HOUSE from the paper of my Grandfather Sidney W. Campbell

I always think the cover of a book is like a door Which opens into someone's house where I've not been
before. A pirate or a fairy queen may lift the latch for me. I always wonder when I knock, what welcome there will be. And when I find a house that's dull, I do not often stay But when I find one full of friends, I'm apt to spend the day. I never know what sort of folks will be within you see. And that's why reading always is so interesting to me. ~~Annie Fellows Johnston
