BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD!

THE SUN, NO SNOW ANYWHERE AND 60 DEGREES!

We had a gorgeous day today! It was so sunny out and all the snow has melted away and it actually hit a high of 63 degrees today! Awesomeness! I told Mom that we had to get out and about today since it was such a nice day! You're going to get a treat--I had a Gabriel Brothers trip!!!!

 

So as you can see the sun came out and the snow was all gone. This was just a couple of pictures along the way.


CANCER CUTIE OUTFIT OF THE DAY 2-11-13


So today I went with a bright look. The citrus lime and gray was my color palette for today. I had dark skinny jeans with a white tank and a white three quarter t shirt and then I threw on the bright tank and a gray cardigan. Then I busted out my fro-wig with the matching beanie cap! I have silver flats to match the cardigan and my silver purse. I kept the makeup pretty simple,  but I did add a little bit of the lemony shade on my lids, but not enough to make a dramatic difference. 



RETAIL THERAPY...WELCOME TO GABRIEL BROTHERS

If you've known me for a long time, then you have heard of Gabriel brothers. This is like Ross, TJ Maxx type of store, but it was actually founded here in WV--in Morgantown actually. It's actually cheaper than Ross and TJ Maxx a lot of times and it has more of a warehouse feel than a retail shop. You really gotta dig through the racks, but you can find stuff for super cheap--maybe because it was sized wrong, colored wrong, there was overstock, the zipper's broke or just whatever--nothing might be wrong. They also carry designer stuff for super cheap too. I saw a Kenneth Cole coat heavy cape coat in a purple magenta color for $30! But that gives you an idea of what to expect. 
Dressing room fun!
The haul!
Not been a fan of the colored jeans, but they had like 3 clearance racks of them and I really needed some new pants--they're all too lose without a belt. I had already picked up the scarf to use as a head wrap and so I added the orange tank! That was a whole outfit --$12 before tax. There's a little toboggan style hat in brown that I picked up for $3!


More goodies--I got the black slipper shoes--they have real tread on the bottom but the inside is lined just like a pair of comfy slippers--$3! I have another pair from Target, but those were like $6 on clearance. I also grabbed a headband for $2 and the yellow cap was also $3. I then found a pair of dark jeans that fit without a belt and were just what I needed--$7!
You really have to love the little orange clearance tags--I bought a pair of pants for $3!!!!

 TOTAL TALLY:

Colored denim   $3
Orange Tank   $4
Multicolor scarf   $5
Brown hat   $3
Dark Jeans  $7
Black Slipper boots  $3
Light blue headband $2
Yellow peace hat  $3

$30.00 before tax!

They sell everything so I also picked up some stickers, snack food, candy and I also got three pairs of undies for $5!

I hope you enjoyed the Gabes experience and who knows it maybe coming to you soon! I heard that the company has actually been purchased by TJMaxx--which is why they have made some changes to the layout of the place, but we shall see. As of right now they are located in our area--WV, MD, OH, PA, VA and KY.


ART JOURNAL PAGE IS STARTED...



So this is my most recent art journal. I just started it last night, but it's all based off of  a page from one of Joel Osteen's lil inspirational books about living in God's favor and speaking your dreams into existence. I will be working on it some more tomorrow probably. I may start a new one tonight.
