OhMyGoodnessIHaveSoMuchToSay.
And this is going to be the most disorganized mash-up of zillions of stuffs, because if I don't update you on recently-ness, I'll forget everything. "Get a notebook!" say you? Pfft. That's such a good idea. But my notebook is currently full of an extensively reproducing list of smack to do in my big kid job.
So, basically, I hope you've had your morning cup of whatever it is that helps you focus. Because I'm seriously about to go all ADD on you. And because you puffy heart me, you'll like it. And because you know me, generally speaking, you also aren't at all surprised at the amount of smish smosh that's about to ensue.
There, I said it.
It's a random little disorganized week over here, at Fashion Momma!
First, I asked on Twitter, yesterday, if anyone would like to see what I came up with for the winner of my 300 Follower Giveaway! You said, "yes!" Oh my goodness, it felt so good to hear that "yes." I was worried I'd be standing like a reality TV star at the end of a show, asking you to marry me, and you'd leave me in the dust. Phew. I sent Caitlin's package out yesterday, so girl, if you're reading, DON'T PEEK (assuming you read before you looked at the giant pictures I'm about to post... because that's the average response). Diversion. Anyway... Caitlin got to choose two pairs of tights from We Love Colors, and she chose Brown and Light Tan! I didn't get photos of those, because my lovely friends at WLC shipped them straight from their location for me. Thanks! I got to pick up the Charlotte Russe gift card that Caitlin chose, and hand-pick three accessories. I kind of cheated and picked four. Oopsie.
teal butterfly scarf: Old Navy, long chain and hammered coin necklace: Old Navy,
rhinestone cuff and bow rings: Forever 21
That's that. Yep. I throw awesome giveaways. It's true. You should probably get on the next one.
Oh my gosh. Did I just do a spoiler? Sorry for not adding "Spoiler Alert!" a la Perez Hilton.

Now's where I ask for your advice. I need help with my skin, friends. Just recently, over the past few months, I've started to get some pretty severe breakouts on my face, chest and back. You might have noticed, because I don't edit them out of my photos. It's me. It's what's going on. Real life stuff over here, you know? I'm not embarrassed. I'm just really angry and frustrated. I've had my share of acne issues, but not really since high school. Barring a few breakouts in college that I couldn't get under control, things have been pretty calm since then. And then, KA-POW! I look like a hormone-infested teenager. Awesome. Sometimes I wear make-up and sometimes I don't. Sometimes I wear tops that cover my chest, and sometimes I don't. I'm not going to let this issue paralyze my style. However, I'm in pain. I feel like I'm experiencing rosacea on my cheeks and my forehead constantly looks like an oily heat rash. My cheeks, chin, jawbone, neck, and hairline are breaking out with semi-cysts, and my back and chest look like I was bitten by 50 mosquitoes.
WHAT GIVES?? Please and thank you.
Oh, P.S.- I'm asking you because I can't afford the dermatologist, nor will I take acne medication. So, any other ideas?
And just when you thought you'd never see an outfit from me, again, I'll pull through.
I do it out of love for you.
And obsession with clothes.
blush tank: H&M
black cardigan: Old Navy
black slacks: New York & Company
blush flats: Ross (don't remember the brand)
gold, pearl, and rhinestone necklace: Banana Republic (Christmas gift from ML!)
Okay, let's do a quick recap, since you've probably become half brain-fried by now.
1. Caitlin got some awesome stuff and I like doing giveaways.
2. PLEASE weigh in on my skin problems. I need your help!
3. I love feminine, simple, sweet outfits. Oh, and I wore this last Wednesday.
I promise to be more organized and less long-winded, tomorrow.
