IN TOUCH WITH THE MUCH

I would have been so sad if I had not been able to pull out my camera and snap this pic in time. It was all about the Muchness. I especially love how the tomato tights contrast to the black and white asphalt. Some dude saw me take the picture and he snorted. Hmmmm… that dude? Outta touch with The Much.

Tomato Tights! They're Red Hot!

MUCHNESS PIC OF THE DAY

I feel like my Muchness is lagging. Though I DO wear something Muchy every day, many days it’s a redo of something I’ve already worn, and I worry I will bore you. But then I decided, Peh! Half the point of The Muchness is Sharing The Muchness, which means I am going to make it my mission to post my Muchness Every. Single. Day.

That being said, my iphone is so old. I upgraded the app that I use to post to this blog from my phone and now the app no longer works. I need a new phone.
Operation: Convince-boss-to-let-me-upgrade-my-iphone  is in full effect!

Today, I wore shorts for the first time since HIGH SCHOOL. Pretty awesome.

Shorts for Muchness

MUCHNESS PIC OF THE DAY

OMG. I saw these at one of the best stores on the planet – The Christmas Tree Shops! They are like the most glorified dollar store on planet earth. Like a treasure hunt for all the most random crap you never knew you couldn’t live without.

So, they had these napkin rings that looked like GIANT Diamond rings. Forget the fact that I don’t have any napkins that would ever need ringing, I just HAD to own these. I bought 8. OH, those are the “little” ones. The BIG ones were the size of my fist- and that’s just the Diamond!!! I bought every single one they had in stock- Total- 5.

What on earth am I going to do with these glorious tchatchkas???? I have NO IDEA!

Suggestions?

MUCHNESS PIC OF THE DAY

Ya know what? I LOVE how The Muchness just keeps paying it forward! Inspired by Dennel, I have just taken out my sewing machine for the first time in…. um…. I have no clue. Lets just say the last time this machine saw the light of day it was a top of the line (ish) and it was not yellow! I opened the case and gasped! Honest to god, the thing used to be white.

But no matter. I threaded that thing right up and it ran like a dream. And the best part?? It’s what I’m gonna make on this sewing machine….

Stay tuned…

Another Reader Submission!!! (I love these 🙂 )

Dennel is my girl- she actually sews her own own Muchness! How awesome is that? I have more than one submission from her because she is clearly a whiz on the Singer (or Brother, or Viking Husqvarna, or whatever the  heck she sews on) but I am just gonna post one today. Leave you waiting for more….

Dennel (In her silver pants) Writes: This muchness is a lot of fun.  Being an adult sucks sometimes and it’s great to be OK with throwing away all the worries of social acceptability and just being free to sparkle.

Ya know what? I couldn’t agree more. I wanna rewrite that quote in glitter glue and put it on a flag on my front lawn!
Go on with your bad self in your silver pants! I hope you wear those to the grocery store on a saturday morning. That place could use a little Muchness.

Yay!!!  A reader submission!

I needed a little ‘pick me up’. Your blog inspired me, I needed Muchness! I was browsing the jewelry isle and bam, you came to mind. I found these bracelets that add a little bling to my day, and ohhh, the shoes! Doesn’t every woman feel better in a cute pair of heels 🙂

Thanks “much” Tova! How does it feel to be an inspiration?!
