Thursday: Mix Tape

Hmmm. This looked better in the mirror than it does in the photo. I think it was one of those outfits that works well in motion; the blouse is a little large but it has a nice drape and I love the banded bottom. I paired it with grey AT pants and a purple LE turtleneck, then finished it off with a lucite silver long necklace and my Franco Sarto loafers.

Running is starting to pay off; the pants are fitting a little better this week. Still not crazy about the length, but they've been taken out as far as they go, and these are my lowest heels that aren't flats. In a few more weeks they will be better PPL; as your dupa gets smaller, less fabric is needed around your hips and more ends up at the bottoms. I've learned this over and over again!



The top is so pretty; I had a grey jacket on over this, but I really just wanted to enjoy the colors today. I haven't worn this in months, since before I got the blog, I think. It was part of the first suit I bought after I lost the weight, way back in April or May. I was worried all of it would only fit for a short time, and for a while this top was in the donate pile, but it's back again for now. I'm going to enjoy it while I can!



George says hi.

+++++

I have an iPhone, an iTouch, a Macbook Pro, and a whole lotta songs in my husband's iTunes. But I still call it my Walkman when I'm not thinking, and I still consider my playlists to be mix tapes.

I am so old skool.

Anyway, What a Splurge and Cranky Fitness have been talking about workout tunes this week. I go through phases, where certain songs have to be listened to every time I turn on my Walkman iTouch, over and over until I am sick of them. Right now I have a lot of Pink and songs from "Glee" in heavy rotation, but they're starting to bore me.

Here is the newest playlist I just made tonight:
You Should Be Dancing, Bee Gees
Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It), Beyonce
Defying Gravity, Glee cast
Nothin' Better to Do, Leann Rimes
Heaven Must Have Sent You, Bonnie Pointer
A Little Less Conversation, Elvis
Sometime Around Midnight, Toxic Airborne Event
Bow Down Mister, Boy George
Push It, Salt'n'Pepa
No Scrubs, TLC
I Feel For You, Chaka Khan
My Love is Alive, Chaka Khan
Ray of Light, Madonna
Nothing Really Matters, Madonna

What are your current favorites? I need some new ideas before my morning run tomorrow!
