Weekend Update--Birthday Edition

Friday was my birthday, so I've been consuming lots of calories in celebration all weekend. 

It started out with a delicious steak dinner at Houston's with the hubs.

 

 

..and was followed up with some sweets at Muddy's.

If you are ever in the Memphis area, you must stop by Muddy's. You won't be disappointed.

Saturday morning, I made Rodney get up early with me to check out the Neiman Marcus reveal at Target. 

I came home with the Tory Burch thermos and lunchbox.

Totally didn't need either one of them, but you can't say no to cheap Tory!

 

I finally got around to decorating the tree. I put it up over a week ago and haven't actually decorated until now. More pics on that to come later in the week.

Just a PSA--I've found my style soul mate. 

Ever since I found Shanna's blog, I haven't been lusting over every. single. thing. she wears. 

A few weeks ago, she posted this picture below on the left, and I fell in love (as always). 

The sweater and shoes are Target, so it was just too easy to copy the look. 

See..my problem is that I can't put outfits together on my own. Some people look around at magazines and blogs and find inspiration.

Nope, not me. I don't ever get inspired. I just start lusting and decide I must have that exact outfit for myself. 

When I got into a store, I mannequin shop or get the salespeople to help me. I'm hopeless...even though I love shopping (and shop way more than I should).

Granted, I don't look near as cute as she does in the outfit. I didn't have a precious necklace and my white shirt doesn't hang quite the same way. 

I was just excited to finally wear a heart shirt without looking like a 12 year old. I had the most precious "birthday suit" ever. Thanks for showing my how Shanna! 

Happy Monday! How was your weekend?
