Highlights of my day include:

1) Being able to take the subway home instead of a cab

2) Lying in my bed under the covers

3) Changing out of day clothes and into pajamas

4) Watching General Hospital while eating Thai food 

5) Sleeping approximately 30 minutes after this post is published (like the switch up of tenses there, huh, huh... no I was NOT an english major... clearly)

You know what I was/am though? A freakin' GREAT gift giver!

GIVEAWAY

Muddied Waters

I stayed at work extra late today to get things done. We so proud, we so proud. 

The shorts are Phillip Lim... scored them at the Barney's Warehouse sale. You know that song you sing around Christmas... "it's the most wonderful time of the year".  I sing that whenever I enter the Barneys sale. Heaven twice a year.

Oh and I forgot to casually mention that I got this A. Wang bag at the sale as well... for something like 70% off. That's right I paid $135.00 for an Alexander Wang bag. What's so special you ask? Well I went towards the end of the sale, scored big, and got an extra 40 percent off. That's what you get for being patient.

 Rag and Bone sunglasses, Topshop necklace, LNA t-shirt (similar style here), 3.1 Phillip Lim shorts. Topshop shoes, Alexander Wang bag

Highlights of my day include: 

1) Grilled cheese that tastes like pizza

2) Coming home to the BF
