Happy Hump Day: Elijah Wood

Sound the alarms, readers! I had not yet featured Elijah Wood on hump day! I know, I am pretty disappointed in myself. I know FX’s Wilfred just started last week (I hope you all watched – it was hilarious), and his role as Frodo will forever be remembered, but my love affair with Mr. Wood started way back. Namely, when I was a tween. Whenever I had a sick day, my mom always knew to bring me home an Elijah Wood movie home from Blockbuster. He then professed his love for The Smashing Pumpkins – my favorite band. And then came Lord of the Rings, my first true nerdy fandom. And it was basically sealed. I’m pretty sure we are destined to be BFF’s, so if you are out there, El Wood, let’s throw back some beers, take some lomo shots, and catch a secret Pumpkins show. Oh, and cuddle.

ps; whoever can state who took the picture above wins Melificent brownie points!

What I Wore: Sightseeing in Chicago

Chicago was absolutely wonderful! I loved it the first time I went back in 2006, but it was definitely nice to go again in warm weather. It was a totally different experience, and I loved every minute of it. We had some really great food, saw some beautiful architecture and enjoyed some seriously delicious weather. I had one day all by my lonesome to explore the windy city (hubby was at a conference), so I had some quality park time, went shopping & walked to & from Navy Pier getting a fair dose of some gorgeous cityscapes. And this is what I wore while doing it:

Dress; Old Navy
Sheer crop top; H&M
Sandals; Gap outlet
Earrings; Forever 21
Assorted bracelets; gifted
Skeleton key; Etsy
Sunnies; Forever 21
Bag; Levi’s


Special appearance by the lovely Ms. Melanie!

Chicago Bound!

I’ll be spending a much needed relaxing weekend with my hubby and friends in one of my favorite places, the Windy City, so the blog will be sans love on this Friday. However, I’ll make sure to come back next week with a full report of all the fun. Don’t miss me too much!

Squeeworthy: ZICO Coconut Water

The great people of ZICO coconut water were nice enough to send me a variety pack last week of their delicious and refreshing product to review and share with all of you lovely readers, and I was more than willing to do just that! ZICO is an all-natural beverage that has the 5 essential electrolytes. Do you know that ZICO coconut water has more potassium than a banana and 15 times the potassium of a typical sports drink? It’s also more hydrating than water and has zero fat, cholesterol or added sugar. And it’s my new favorite (non-alcoholic) drink of the summer!

Happy Hump Day: Michael Fassbender

So ladies, I hear you all a-twitter about Mr. Fassbender. Although I was more of a Charles Xavier kind of girl myself, I can see the draw of the good, but tortured boy gone bad. He was absolutely wonderful as Magneto, no doubt about it, and there is most certainly something attractive about him, but I just can’t get into him (har har) for some reason (I think I just don’t like his smile). But plenty of you girls can, and he’s got some really great photos to choose from on the Tumblr’s, so I decided to feature him this week! You can definitely never say that I only think of myself, now can you? 😉
