Daddy's Girl

I am my father's daughter when it comes to electronic devices. I can remember growing up being the first kid with a cell phone, when they were a huge brick, but my dad insisted that I had one just in case ( sure... ). He always wanted the biggest TV available because, why not? Thanks to this gadget-loving gene, I have had a new cell phone almost religiously every 10 months or when the latest and greatest one comes out. So today while I was innocently on Sprint.com checking my online account, I noticed that I was eligible for an upgrade. Huh, what could I get for said upgrade? I was intrigued so I looked around and found the Samsung Instinct- Sprint's version of the iPhone- my soul mate.

 I watched the video of features and had to have it. After work I raced to the nearest store and chatted up the salesman and 30 mins later I had it. We were finally together, this one is going to last forever... or until another cute phone comes out! Thanks Dad for the phone weakness, and love of gadgetry!

Another Addition

I know, I still haven't posted my lovely new bedroom digs, but it's because I have another addition to the bedroom. I just picked up this gorgeous floor lamp at Target for $37!!! It was originally $150, yikes! 

{ Beautiful. }

So I will post my pictures of the updated boudoir tomorrow. I am such a believer that your bedroom should be your sanctuary, your retreat from the world, and I think that mine is. I love it and want to spend all my free time there, and I'll show it to you all tomorrow.

New Pretties

Mr. Grubbs and I have a fun Friday night ahead of us. A friend of my sister Ashley I. is having a CD release party for his band and we got an invite to it! I'm very excited about having a fun night out, we haven't had a real good one in a while. Which obviously leads to a new outfit, so off to the mall I go. I often have a hard time looking for a worthy purchase, as much of the "going out" clothes tend to be very tight, low, skanky, etc. And when I do find something I like it is expensive, but I don't like to pay a lot because I don't wear these types of clothes often- I'm more of a comfy-chic gal. But I did find 2 very cute shirts from Charolette Russe and lots of earrings to choose from. My favorite shirt I couldn't find a picture of but I also picked up this one:

To go with it I got these earring from Forever 21:

Forever 21 is a good place to find these cheap, not-so-often worn clothes. As the saying goes, pay cheap for trends and expensive for classics.

I'll have to post some pictures from the party with the new threads.
