Black Tory Burch Kiliaen Messenger Bag

Loving it so far.  Smaller than the London Fog bag, but I love the way it looks and the leather is so soft!  Gonna take it out for a spin tonight when I head to the play.  Excited!

And now: To Eat!

Intermediary

London Fog purse from the mama

I was using this guy while I was waiting for the new Tory Burch and feel like it deserves some blog time.  I had it for about a week and thoroughly enjoyed its multiple pockets and roomy insides.  The only problem is that its white and in January, a white purse is not exactly what I usually look for.

I will, however, be using this purse as my "in between" whenever I have sent something back to BBOS and still haven't received my new one.

Come on Out!

tee: Threadless, tank: Costco, sweater: American Eagle, jeans: J Brand from Nordstrom, boots: Steve Madden, accessories: tiered necklace from Express

Rehearsal again today (getting used to this!) started early (10am--haha), which gave me 3 hours in the middle of the day to work on character stuff and Brecht-ness, etc. It was great getting some time to really nail Lucy and work on the dialect (she's gonna be RP--except when I sing the Jealousy Duet, then I think I'll go a little Cockney, but that might change).  I have to remember that my job does not end with rehearsal.  I have a lot of homework to do on this show and I need to actually do it.

Tonight I have tickets to the ECS show "No Snowflake in an Avalanche", tomorrow I have tix for "Duel of the LInguist Mages" at Annex and Sunday I got comps to Shakes' "Chamber Cymbeline". w00t!

The weird thing about the weekend is that it's not really my weekend anymore.  Friday night isn't really a Friday night (it's a Wed? I dunno since I only have one day off a week anyway). It's weird right now...

Journey to the Past

tee: H&M, sweater: Mod Cloth, jeans: H&M, flats: Linea Paolo from Nordstrom, accessories: black ring gifted, long black beaded necklace, mirrored earrings

Another glorious day where I get out before 5 so that I can get to yoga!  Yay-zers!  Today we worked music and now I feel soooo much better about my two songs than I did yestersay. This show is gonna go fast and furious, but it's gonna be good (already got the flyer in the mail--yesh!).

Yesterday the roomie and I drank wine, caught up and watched a movie with the kittehs (mostly the little rabbit) and it was super nice to see the roomie and to just hangout at home (spend no $$) and have a relaxing night in.

Sincerely Yours

tee: thrifted, sweater: Halogen from Nordstrom, jeans: J Brand from RueLaLa, tnak: Costco, saddle shoes: BDG from Urban, accessories: gifted green ring from Nordstrom

We did a neat little "walk through" of the show today. On its feet but with no blocking and no music work beforehand just to get a feel for the thing (and figure out if we can really do this epic thing with only 12 in the cast) and it went ridic well. Stephanie kept saying "forget rehearsal, we open Fri" and it was pretty true.  This is gonna be a great show!  Excitement!

Jess and I are gonna grab drinkles and foodzies at the apartment tonight and enjoy some relaxing wine with the kittehs (both doing great and the little rabbit drools when she's  happy. It's cute, but also a little bit gross). It will be nice to spend some time with the roomie and the kittehs and eat some good foodzies.  Yay!

It's A New Dawn

tank: Costco, pants: Jolt from Nordstrom, sweater: Cardigan NYC, boots: Zigi Soho from DSW

It started today!  I am officially a paid professional actor!  For realzies! It was exciting.  We just did a read through and talked about theme and what we were thinking about for basic ideas of the show, but it was the first step and it felt like a great first step.  Super excited to get into this character and this world.  I think the whole thing is gonna be an absolute blast.  Also, found out I am gonna get to be in more than just Lucy's scenes which is great.

Last night the sister and I headed over to Thai foodz and to see Blue Valentine after my Aladdin audition (which totally ROCKED--was complimented on how well I sang--w00t!) and Blue Valentine was ridic. AMAZING performances by both Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling and totally and completely heartbreaking, seriously hard to watch at some points, but beautiful too.  I would definitely recommend it, but you have to be in the right mood to enjoy that movie for sure.

Tomorrow is another day of rehearsal!  Yay!  And since we got out early today I got to get over to yoga before heading home tonight.

Patterns

tee: Kimchi Blue from Urban, skirt: H&M, bolero: H&M, tights: Spanx from the Rack, shoes: Sofft from Nordstrom, accessories: long chain earrings, min-heart necklace

On my way to my audition at the 5th, but first I am gonna head over to FedEx Kinko's and print off my newest resume for them and then meet the seestor for Blue Valentine.

Super bummed about my Hawks, but... what can you do.  They threw us around like we were half their size. And well, we just couldn't hold onto anything... blearg.  Golden Globes were fun though.  Nice to see Colin Firth get recognized for The King's Speech, but a little bummed Helena Bonham-Carter didn't get it.  Although after seeing both Christian Bale and Melissa Leo win for The Fighter it moves up my list as a movie I have to see before Oscars are announced... Yay Toy Story 3 (boo Justin Beiber) and yay for The Social Network (Aaron Sorkin I heart you!).

OK, heading outta here and tomorrow I start rehearsals!
