Veronabrit - question

[BunnyMacDougal]

Why don't you close your bag for the photos?

Just wondering. In my mind, it would make a better profile - less distracting from the outfit on display.

[iamgrace]

Verona. It's fall. New bag please!

[imoan]

Or just leave the bag out of the ootd pics.

This works too.

[spedrunner]

i saw someone asked her this on her blog. Her response was there is no point in closing it bc she gets things out of it too frequently and it would be pointless to close it

I like it. I like the color and if i had it id wear it every day. You would HATE to see my OOTD pics on a blog. I wear the same everything day in and out

[hey]

Isn't everything that is talked about on this message board and in your blog...a first world problem?

[hey]

LOL!!!I don't think I've ever had someone call me, "neighbor" before. Well, unless, they were actually my neighbor.

[hey]

Yes, Veronika, I know. OMG!!!

[hey]

My mother told me about them too. I'm always closing her purse. It makes me nervous when she does not zip it.

I just want to know how much money you spend each month on clothing, make up and decorating items for your house?

I would love to know this... Simply because I avoid her blog most of the time because it ends up with me being green with envy that my house isn't a show piece and I can't drop $100 at Sephora every other day. Jealousy like whoa.

[hey]

I don't care how much she spends, I just wish she would stop treating me like I'm a moron. I've found that people that THINK they are smarter than everyone else, usually aren't!

[imoan]

LHC- I'm not judging her at all... Like I said, it's sheer jealousy.

[hey]

I answered your period question , Tamb. I guess, I'm not memorable...LOL!

[iamgrace]

I think Verona should do more house posts. Her place is really gorgeous.

[frauschmindy]

I think she should give me that bag. Is it Kate Spade? I want to kiss it sweetly in the moonlight.

[hey]

Are you guys asking who I am, because I made the comment about her treating me like I'm a moron? I made a comment a few weeks ago and it came across like she was treating me like I was dumb, so that's why when she made this comment, I said that. I've only been commenting on this board for a few months.

Well, aren't you a peach!

[hey]

Sorry, I made my last post, before I saw yours. I didn't have an old sig. Originally, I came here for the health and fitness board. A woman at work told me about it. I've migrated to the other boards. Speaking of periods, I tend to post when I'm about to start mine. LOL!!! I guess, that's when I get fiesty and want to give my opinions on things. It's very weird.

Ha. I wear the same makeup every single day. Haven't shopped at Sephora for months, other than to re-buy stuff I already use, like my bronzer

Ok. I'll give you that. Make-up lasts awhile. But what about all the JCrew stuff? JCrew is not cheap!

[hey]

Do most women wear the same makeup every single day? I'm asking, because I don't. One day, I might not wear any. Then the next day, I might wear blush. Then, blush and mascara. Then there are days where I might wear tinted mositurizer, blush and mascara. Once in a blue moon, I wear eyeliner on the top. I wear my hair differently each day too. Most of the time, i wear it up, because it's just too hot here in Houston.

I would say about 85% of the things I buy are on sale. For example, I wanted these J.Crew earrings badly but they were $75 so I waited. Well, I waited too long and they sold out. I called my local store, had my J.Crew girl call around and she found them for me at a store in the Hamptons---for $59.99 plus 30% off and free shipping. I do shop a lot (obvs) but I like to get things on discount as well because your money goes further. Like LHC said---we don't have kids yet and we both work full time, so now is the time where I want to do things like finishing decorating our home, etc.

LOL! $60 for earrings? To me that is not on sale! I just bought 3 pair for $4.99! Now that is a deal!!

Ok, I don't spend a lot on clothes/beauty, but in defense of V, I have to ask, Joenali, how much do you spend on workout/tri stuff per month? Different hobbies but probably the same general spending idea.

Ok! Ya got me! I just can't spend a ton on clothes when I know I'll turn around in two weeks and hate what I'm wearing and never wear it again!

But yeah, this year has been an expensive one for my hobby!!

I am curious though as to how much she spends, I do like her style!

[imoan]

My makeup is usually the same (minus the eyeshadow combination... I use the Naked and Naked 2 palettes) everyday. Occasionally I'll pick up something new.

[imoan]

Verona... I really wasn't judging. I just wish I was as put together as you (and your home).

hah I bet! I had a passing thought one day of wanting to do a tri and then I realized how broke I'd be. Plus, I'd have to stop being lazy.

Compared to some people I know in the tri community I don't spend much. But when you add all the race fees this year, the new bike, the team fee, the indoor cycling class fee, the new tri-suit I bought. EEEEEK! It's a lot of money.

I know a girl who just spent 8,000 on two new bikes (not each). And she traveled to several races this year. I keep my races local, at least in the state! It is very expensive!

She better win ALL the races!

SHe acutally does pretty well at races! She is racing at the half ironman world champs today! But you still have to pay the race entry fee, the hotel costs and the airfare! It's not like if you qualify someone else pays your way!

[joenali]

Yep! Totally shitty!

[hey]

Go to Sam Moon, or Charming Charlie's.
