A Devilish Challenge

Dear ADCs.. Can you please help me!? I have not bought or used a purse in a VERY, very long time. I have an opera wallet that everything fits in to.. and the only other things I carry are my phone, key (I only have a key and my gym tag on a ring.. easy peasy), and chapstick. Literally.. that's all.

So, when I run into a store, my wallet is in my hands or under my arm and I am carrying everything else in my pockets. If I am going to a bar or something, I take out money & my license and put them in my pocket - that's it. Unless I drove, then I use the key ring to latch it to a belt loop on my jeans or something.
This gets really old. Haha. My sister gives me such a hard time because I am always asking her to squeeze my random belongings into her purse. So.. maybe it's time. Will you please, please help? So far this is what I'm thinking..

I would like it to be tan..
It would be nice if I could wear it over my chest, like a messenger bag.
Although I love the look of a big hobo bag.. I just don't have enough stuff to fill it.
I'm cheap, so it has to be affordable. I can't spend $100 on a bag..

ADC: Wedding Season

Lindsb — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 19:12:07 -0700

Alright ladybugs, I have 3 weddings within the next month. Crap. I can't recycle outfits anymore because they are all friends and I'm pretty sure they've seen my in my 2 wedding recyclables.

I know it's been pretty dead on here lately, so maybe someone will help? Haha..

I love dresses. I'm very petite though (a whopping 5'0") so long doesn't usually work.. even though I love sky high heels. I'm not afraid of color, but I usually stick to solids. I am also cheap. Haha. I was bopping around online and found a couple things up my alley.. kind of. I found a couple of things on Forever21 for $10 each. Not sure they are good for a wedding though. Especially the red one, considering I have boobs and hips.

ADC: SoCal Concert

My hubs bought me tickets to see my favey fav band, No Doubt, kickoff their tour in May. The concert is at night, outdoors, and in San Diego. I need a look that's funky and fun but also chic!

I have basics; TONS of basics! Skinny jeans, wide leg jeans, tees, ballet flats. Have 'em. See if you can find me a look that is under $100, warm enough for the evening, comfy, and cute!

My style is all across the board. I pretty much love it all! I'm not opposed to dresses or skirts and I'm not into empire waists. They make me look preggo. Which isn't so good when you're not! Here are some of my wardrobe inspirations for spring to give you some ideas:

And more than just Whip should participate! I need options, people!

Need to find - TRENCH COAT help?!?

Hey Everyone,

These are the only good pictures I could find. I will look on youtube later to see if there is a video that shows it in full. I am in love with this coat that Belle wears in Secret Diary of a Call Girl... mostly in season 1. Anyone know who makes it? Or anything!?!?! I can't find a thing on it.

Based on my memory:
- Offwhite trench coat
- Bubble, 3/4 length sleeves
- Stop at midthigh with a bubble hem
- belted
- funky buttons (which u will see in the picture), they are placed in odd spots.

You can see the sleeves and the buttons

Doesn't show much, clearly LOL
