Our inspiration for today's Inspiration Monday is Eva Longoria in a nice mostly black ensemble. I wasn't going to do this week's and then I figured out a look I could do kind of late in the day yesterday. I had to break up the black more than she did, so I added more gray.
Also dressed it up a bit more for work, so it feels a little classy to me almost! Her look is a bit more laid back. It's giving me a chance to wear a jacket that has been sitting in my basement getting no love for quite some time actually and now that I'm wearing it I'm not sure why I haven't been wearing it for so long!
I'm so glad I had my outfit figured out last night, the weather this morning is horrid and I needed the extra time this morning to clean off my car and drive to work. The ice was so thick on my car that it took nearly 20 minutes to clean it off. Man are my arms sore now! Darn our tiny one car garage. Neither of us park in it to be fair (and there is a chance it is also just too full of junk for anyone to park in it...) but on days like today I'm like, let's knock the whole thing down and build a giant heated garage. Who needs a savings account?
Anyway, I made it to work in one piece, but the driving wasn't great either. Snow + Ice = yuck. Thank goodness I have a short commute, but I still pulled in a little later than I should have. Darn it!
I baked cupcakes again over the weekend, but I'm hearing on the radio that it's National Pie Day. I wish I had known that, I could have made pie instead! Beyond that the weekend wasn't terribly exciting. Next weekend will be fun though, there is a MN Fashion Blogger meet up on Saturday and I'm really excited to go and meet some of the other local bloggers out there (a little nervous too, but mostly excited). Then in the evening the Pants Monkey and I are going to a Glass Blowing/Beer Tasting class - it is his belated Christmas gift. Next weekend is going to rock!
But for now, back to Monday I go. For other Inspiration Monday outfits, visit Two Birds.
