Hello friends,
I am writing to apologize for not posting my outfits in a timely manner. My camera had been MIA for a few days. (Now found!!) On top of that, lately, I have been leaving work feeling defeated. Not in a fashionable sense...in that sense, I've been on top of my game. But my class has been sucking the life out of me. Working smack dab in the inner city is more challenging than I ever thought. I have had to motivate myself daily to go to work.
Also, sorry for getting personal in this blog post. I just needed an outlet. My daily outfits will be back soon. Don't worry, I have no cheated from the remix. However, last night, I totally almost cheated. I wanted to feel hott and sexy and go into the city. I felt that my clothes I chose for the remix were more school appropriate than weekend appropriate. But, alas, I did not cheat. I kept to my word, per usual.
Until next post,
Moe Money

Have a Frattastic Wednesday!
Today was a half day in school. Meaning, that for the second half of the day, we went to do some professional development. We meet with all the other teachers across the city who are in our grade level. It is also a jeans day. I figured I couldn't look like a slob. I went for a polished-casual look. Once I finished my outfit and looked in the mirror, I thought "Wow, I look very frattastic!" Meaning I feel like a true sorority girl. Lately I have been having flashbacks of my college years. Today reminded me of this, especially with my oversized men's watch (thrifted) that I could have easily 'borrrowed' from a frat daddy. Some days, I hate looking too frattastic, but today, I'm loving it. I wish you could have seen my Vineyard Vines tote and my Lilly travel mug. I chose to wear my high school medallion instead of my lavaliere. (Mostly because I have no idea where it is! Eeek)
Cheers to no school tomorrow. Thanks Vets! I'm going out for a drink, on you, tonight*

Remix- Day Uno
Today begins Day 1 of no shopping and my 30 for 30 fashion remix. (I feel like I should have Jock Jams playing the background for this). Since I do not have Jock Jams as readily available as I would like, this should supplement
Let's get ready to REEEEMMMIIIXXXXX!!!!
Usually, I take my pictures before I head to school. It is usually when I am excited for the day (and the outfit). However, today I was running late. As you can see from my face and my body pose, this is taken after school...after my students bombed a reading test when I gave them the answers before hand. Needless to say, it was a rough Monday. Thank God for a half day on Wednesday and no school on Thursday.
Today was super easy to pick out an outfit. I hope this energy for remix-ing doesn't dwindle as my energy for school often does.

Let the Remix-ing Begin
So tomorrow starts my first day of the 30 for 30 remix. As I said before, it is my first time doing this. I finally chose the clothes that I will be remix-ing. Check it out.
5 Skirts + 6 shirts + 5 cardigans + 5 pairs of pants + 5 pairs of shoes + 4 dress = Let the remixing begin!!!
Little Black Dress Night
Last night I felt like I was back in college, getting ready for a sorority date night party. Sarah's brother, D Franchise and his friend, Contrary were performing last night in Lowell. Sarah had the girls over for a little black dress pre-game party. It was so much fun! Below is me with the hostess. I wish I had taken a picture of the back of the dress. It was all cut out in the back. Total hottness!
Although once we got to the bar, we soon realized that we were the only ones in the theme. So, yes, we were those girls. Oh well, so worth it.

30 for 30
Hey Friends,
On Monday, I will be joining Kendi Everyday in her 30 for 30 challenge. What is that you ask? I take 30 articles of clothing and make 30 different outfits. (And no shopping for 30 days, eek!) Shoes do count however accessories and jackets do not count. I'm hoping it will help me better shop by closet and become more creative. My bank account could also use the break.
On Sunday, I will post the 30 articles of clothing that I chose to remix. Remember, these clothes need to take me to work and to play. Let's cross our fingers and hope it works! Woop Woop! Who wants to try this with me? Any takers??

Happy Hoot-aween
So sorry for not blogging in over a week. Big things have been happening over here. I switched schools across town. I've been living and breathing school work. I now work with my best friend from middle school and a few of my brother's friends. It's funny. It is like we are all just playing a big game of school.
Hoot! Hoot! I was an owl for Halloween this year. I didn't actually go out for Halloween. I started making this costume last month. It took forever but I love love love it. My mom made me put it on and drive around town showing my family and friends. I'm glad I didn't get pulled over. Next year, I hope to wear it to school. HaHa What do you think of the costume?
