High Five for...Saturday!!

Yesterday I linked up with my bloggy buddies for one of my favorite posts!  We shared our favorite books.  I got so many recommendations!!  I wrote them all down and I think I'm set for the year!  HA!  I didn't link up with the Friday 5 ladies, but since I've been up since the crack of dawn and have lots of things I wanna talk from about this week , I'm putting together a five for your Saturday Morning, to enjoy with your coffee!!  Here goes...

/ONE/

I can't stop laughing at this...I'm a full on country music fan and typically only listen to what loaded on my old school iPod, so I only hear today's music on things like this on FB and YouTube (or The Voice!) I really like this song!!  And this is hilarious.

/TWO/

I didn't get a weekend recap up this past Monday, but on Saturday night I had a Gone Girl Girls Night with my sisters and bestie.   We went to my sister's house for Mexican and the movie.  We planned this on my birthday night when we found out that my sister Tara was reading the book, thinking that a month and half later she would be done with the book.  Well, she wasn't!  But we kept the date and watched the movie.  I mentioned when this movie came out in the theater, that I would probably wait to watch this on DVD, because I have such a love-hate relationship with this book.  Thank goodness I didn't pay to see this in the movies.  I was not a fan!!!!!  What a crazy psycho!!!!

On Monday I found a little package at my door.  I got another Influenster #VoxBox.  This time it was one product...Carefree Pantyliners.  I received this complimentary to test and review to find out why #FreshisFierce.  These things are tiny!!  Which is good! I use pantyliners way more than one would think (is that too TMI?!?) but I really like these and would definitely buy them. Happy the box came with a coup too! I'm happy I was chosen to receive this #VoxBox and am so glad I signed up for Influenster this earlier year!

/FOUR/

Another thing I got in the mail this week was a Stitch Fix package. It was my 4th.  I have never blogged about any of my boxes. I don't get one a month like is recommended.  I do every other.  I always like what's in my box but I don't have a consistent stylist (because I'm not a frequent enough Stitch Fixer!).  I did keep one item this time which is typical of me!    I liked all the others, but I had similar items that were in my box! This happens a lot.  I think this means that I'm doing well in the style department.  I really, really loved a pair of pants they sent me, but they were supposed to be cropped and me, being me, they were too long. I also didn't like the $98 price tag.  HA!!  Recently, Stitch Fix said they now carried petite, so maybe in my next one I'll get a pair of petite pants.  I really think Stitch Fix is convenient and fun and would really recommend giving it a try.  Check it out here!

Here's what I kept.  I like the zip back, high/low hem and colors.  I can wear this with navy cropped pants I have or coral shorts.  When I wear it, I'll put it in a #WIWW post!

Easter Sunday I'm gonna wear a dress I got in my last Fix.  It's still chilly here!! BOOOOOO!!! Follow me on Insta to check it out!! I'm @missmitch2!

/FIVE/

So, if you've been reading the blog these last few days or follow me on Insta, you know that on Wednesday at 3 p.m. I started my Spring Break!  Woo Hoo!!  Well, I think I already need to go back to work.  Because a) I still wake up early (not 5:45 early but...) and b) I tweeted Carson Daly yesterday during the Today Show and got a little too excited when he tweeted me back!!  HAHAHAHAHA!!!  But c'mon...I was such a TRL Girl!!  And I really did wanna know about that zucchini chocolate muffin!! 

Have a happy Saturday and a Blessed Easter Sunday!!

Friday!

A two-hour delay and an early dismissal day!!  Not too shabby of a Friday!!  Another snow storm rolled in Wednesday night, leaving us with no school yesterday and a two hour delay today.  Because it's also Parent-Teacher conferences this afternoon, it was a scheduled 11:30 dismissal.  Basically we'll be in for one period!  Ha!

But anyway... on to the fun stuff!

I'm daily photoing on Insta and this one was probably my favorite from this week!  I realize it's just a box (#solitarylifeprobs)...but inside the box is the hope of SPRING {The Spring that feels like it may NEVER get here!!} Oh and I still stuck to my goal of not spending money on clothes!  This was an old Ebates check I spent Yes, I had that much...Ebates ROCKS!!  Sign up!!.

#SCARFWEEK Recap!

I mentioned in my Friday 5 that I spent last week participating in Scarf Week.  I was perusing the "based on people you follow" section of Instagram and this picture popped out at me!

I clicked on it and found out that insta user bybmg was hosting scarf week from Sunday, January 9th through Saturday, Jan 18th.  I saw it in the knick of time!  I actually started on Monday!  Sunday was my usual boring day of laundry, lesson plans and the like, so I spent the day in my Blardigan!

I thought it'd be fun for What I Wore Wednesday to recap my scarves from the week!  Most pictures are just from the waist up (And my Instagram posts..Follow Me Here!)  On a typical work day I wear boring old trouser pants, especially in this horrible weather!

Monday:  It rained so I wore leggings, a tunic and my wellies! (Basically, my rainy day uniform!) I threw on my fur scarf (similar) to dress up the look!  The only bad part...I was shedding.  Thank goodness for masking tape at work!  I used it all day as my lint brush!  LOL

Tuesday: I went with fringe scarf for the frigid day we had!  I have this one in two colors and wear them both really often!

Wednesday:  I wore the blanket scarf to work and a meeting.  I pretty much wear this blanket scarf (nicknamed the BLARF by my family) every other day.  Scarf Week actually helped me switch it up!

Since I didn't participate Sunday and I went out to dinner with friends on Wednesday, I thought I'd rock the leopard infinity with this look!

Thursday: This scarf is actually one of my faves!!!  I got it over the summer (no longer available) and it feels like I've worn it at least a hundred times.  It's a very neutral scarf but has lots of color in it, so still goes with a lot.  This color sweater is good (I have lots of different versions of sweater/shirts in this color...thank you Loft.)  But it also looks great with soft pink, olive green, navy, etc.

Friday: I was happy for Friday to come and decided to wear this plaid scarf, with my boyfriend cardi and black pants to work!

Saturday:  The last day of Scarf Week!  #sadface!  But I went out with a bang!  I wore two scarves simultaneously that day!  I went to dinner in Brooklyn with friends, so I anticipated walking in the freezing cold.  I needed a scarf for function.  But I also wore an outfit in which the scarf pretty much made it...so I wore two!  I gotta say, I was not cold!  LOL  One scarf for function, the other for fashion! Wish I had remembered to take a pic of me all bundled up!!

#SCARFWEEK was so much fun!  I realized all of these were infinity scarves!  Does anyone else think they are just THE EASIEST to throw on and go?!?  Obviously I'm a huge fan!!

Hope everyone is having a great week!  Can't wait to see what everyone's linked up!  See you back here Friday for another link up with my blogging besties!  We're talking 2015 Wish Lists!!  Plan to link-up with us too!!

Have FUN and Look FABULOUS!!
Katie
