			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My closet desperately needed a Spring, Winter, Fall, <em>and</em> Summer cleaning so I went ahead and did so yesterday. While I was making my pile, I realized a lot of the victims had never even been worn <em>once</em>! I didn&#8217;t think it was right to just toss them aside without offering them a new home first where they could at least see the light of day. So I decided to offer them to all of <em>you</em>, lovely readers! If no one is interested, then up on Ebay they will go, but you all get first dibs!</p>
<p>If you want to snag a piece, leave me a comment saying so and it will be yours. First come, first serve! Just as an aside, these all come from a smoke-free home and at max, have been worn once.</p>
<p>Happy shopping!</p>

<p>I don&#8217;t believe that females are the only ones that develop &#8220;girl crushes&#8221; &#8211; I&#8217;m pretty sure guys suffer from their own manly lovefests as well. Case in point? My husband has a man crush on Tom Hardy, whom I affectionately refer to as his boyfriend. In fact, he smiles like a little school girl whenever the commercial airs for his new film, <a href="http://www.thismeanswarmovie.com/">This Means War</a> (he will also play <a href="http://movies.yahoo.com/blogs/the-projector/tom-hardy-bane-scary-bald-dark-knight-rises-123201546.html">Bane</a> in the newest installment of Batman &#8211; no big). I&#8217;m pretty sure if we didn&#8217;t have so many other activities buzzing around us lately, he would have made it the focus of a date night. He also made me watch <a href="http://www.bronsonthemovie.com/">Bronson</a> (an interesting experience to say the least) and basically memorized his workout routines via <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ0lHEd9Eyg">youtube videos</a> to illustrate to our former personal trainer (which caused them to be incorporated into our own &#8211; <em>greeaaaat</em>). It&#8217;s all kinda cute. Just sayin&#8217;.</p>

<p>Like I mentioned yesterday, we went to Disney World over the weekend to take our friends&#8217; engagement photos in various parks. It had been too long a time since I had visited <em>the</em> mouse (Potter has been taking up all my Orlando visits as of late), and I wanted to make sure I showed my love by wearing my awesome, vintage Mickey ears. I also wanted to avoid the usual jean shorts-tank top-fanny pack fare that most tourists wear and put together a comfortable and airy outfit that was still stylish and fun.</p>

Come join in the ribbon cutting, raffle, store tours and free swag with all purchases. I don&#8217;t know about you, but that sounds like a great lunch break! Plus, I&#8217;ll be there! <img src='http://melificent.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Curious about what has changed? A lot! But some of my favorite added features are buttons in the dressing room for more efficient service if, let&#8217;s say, you need another size or color, a sitting area and &#8220;Ebar&#8221; by the dressing room area for your friends and/or significant others to make their wait time a little more bearable (my hubs will <em>definitely</em> appreciate this one), and jewelry stands outside the rooms to make styling your outfit even easier! Plus, the store got a facelift &#8211; doesn&#8217;t it look <em>gorgeous</em>?</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7391" title="Store1" src="http://melificent.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Store1-580x386.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="386" /></p>
<p>Hope to see you there &#8211; if not, visit The Limited on <a href="http://on.fb.me/x5Bz3U">Facebook</a> and stick around here on the blog. I&#8217;ll be giving away a mighty loaded gift card next week to one lucky reader to spend as they wish!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7305" title="outfitwee" src="http://melificent.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/outfitwee-580x435.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="435" />The hubs and I do Valentine&#8217;s&#8230;our way. This usually means something very low-key &#8211; remember the <a href="http://melificent.com/2010/02/15/weekend-highlights-valentines-day-edition/">IKEA date</a>? Or the <a href="http://melificent.com/2011/02/15/valentines-day-2011/">stay-at-home foodie fest</a>? Well, this year we decided at the very last minute to drive down to the Florida Keys and just bum around, enjoying the pure beauty of one of our favorite places. And what a perfect day! It was bright, sunny and chilly (we don&#8217;t get that trio often), and we were in heaven.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve also finally gotten over my fear of colored denim and have jumped straight to blinding love. I was totally inspired by this <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/room_to_outfit/set?id=41432914&amp;amp;.mid=embed-gridv-547085&amp;amp;.embedder=&amp;amp;.referrer=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.elementsofstyleblog.com%252F">Polyvore collage</a> to pair animal print with my new <em>absolutely favorite</em> green pants &#8211; and who knew: it worked! I&#8217;ll slowly become braver and attempt color blocking in the future, but baby steps for now! I especially loved that I matched with all the local decor. <img src='http://melificent.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>It was time to whip out another vintage hottie for all of you out there, and I figured I&#8217;d go with a classic: James Dean. But before I begin, I have a confession to make. I&#8217;ve only seen one old film, and that&#8217;s only because my hubby basically shoved it down my throat (another confession? I didn&#8217;t like the one he made me watch. It was <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054698/">Breakfast at Tiffany&#8217;s</a>. Go at it. Lynch me.), so I&#8217;ve never actually <em>seen</em> Jimmy Dean in action. I&#8217;m serious. But he just sprang out to me in all the photos I saw &#8211; he was so beautiful and mysterious. Those bad boys&#8230;they always find a special place in my heart.</p>

<p>Happy Valentine&#8217;s Day to my lovely readers! I hope you all have a wonderful day filled with lots of love and happiness, whatever your relationship status may be! The hubs and I celebrated a little early this past Sunday with an impromptu trip down to the Florida Keys (more about that later this week), so today will be just another day for us. But back to the outfit post at hand! Over the weekend, we went over to our friend&#8217;s home for a get together to meet their new little (furry) bundle of joy: a 2-month old Boston Terrier named <a href="http://statigr.am/viewer.php#/detail/123823178579335988_72965">Jasper Finn</a>! As if that wasn&#8217;t fun enough, we also had chilly weather, which meant tights(!), jackets(!), scarves(!). And you better believe I did all of the above.</p>
