It's my blogiversary.. and I'm running late as usual.

Hello my loves, it's my blogiversary! 1 full year of blogging, and while it did not make me rich I have met new friends and all kinds of other jazzy things have happened.

For one, I got a free blowdryer. Totally rad. Review coming soon, I promise Brian.

I was enabled to stalk lots of strangers. This was by far, one of my all-time favorite things. I knew there was life after facebook, so glad I found it!

I learned about all the fresh fashion trends, and bought into none of them. That's right friends, I bought a house instead (and 100 bottles of nail polish..). That equals 1,046 items of cute clothing. I'll try harder next year in the fashion department, I promise.

I found an outlet where my usual word vomit was actually semi-appreciated. This was in fact Priceless. Wouldn't trade this fo nothin'. 

But truly, in all seriousness, I met some great friends, discovered all kinds of things about others, and myself. This has been an outlet for me, and for that I am eternally grateful. Blog world, I love you. I really, really do.

and of course, I procrastinated, but I super duper pinky promise... I"m posting my first EVER giveaway tomorrow! As my way of saying thank you, I hope my ramblings helped pass the time
whenever you were watching TV, bored.
OR Standing in line at the grocery store, bored.
OR Sitting at some government office, renewing some government document, bored.
BUT most likely, you were sitting at your desk, at work, bored.

and PS. my hair isn't drastic enough,Going back in a week for the REAL transformation. I posted some pics on Insta, so follow me there. My name is modernsuburbaniiiite

and I'm out.

Lisa its your birthday! Happy birthday Lisa!

I'm feeling really happy right now about my day of birth! No more whiny chick! I'll be back Tom with a recap but here are a random smattering of pics til then!

Love y'alll - Tessy

Get winter items on super sale!

I am heading to the "Windy City" for a work event, and I really really really hope for three things to happen:

1. EVERYTHING RUNS SMOOTHLY 

2. I dont freeze my buns off too bad
3. I see some snow!!
(This southern girl rarely gets a glimpse)

So naturally -I have to hit the malls! prepare myself for this cold place.
I booked it to the outlets with Mateo, and picked up most of my pieces from Banana and Ann Taylor.
I never really diverge too far from these two for work clothes.
Everything was uber cheap! Check it out:

I got this second jacket for $40 and 3 heavy sweaters for $15 a piece. Go gettcha some gurrls. 

Hopefully I'll have a cool recap!!

In regards to the weekend, well it pretty much sucked. I had to run errands, errands, errands. Super boring. BUT I did fall in love with Instagram, and get to see my girl Net for some wine to zen my brain out.

Here is another engagement pic instagram style:

and WINE!

Hook up with me on Instagram, my name is Tessytessio. It's so much fun!

And that's all for now! Kristen will be guest posting on Tuesday, and then I will be back for some birfday madness. I'm feeling a little strange about my birthday this year.. but we'll chat about that later. I will say, I am ready to knock out wedding stuff, work stuff, and PARTY.

Peace out til Wednesday homies!!
