February Wishlist...

Wish List- Feb by jelobo2 showing what to wear with plus size black tops

1. 80's Purple Vintage Faded Cat Eye Clear Lens Glasses:  80's Purple is probably my favorite place to get sunglasses.  Great selection, and if you choose their brand very reasonable prices!  I adore cat eyes so it really is a no surprise that I want clear lens in that shape.  
2. Neon Rope Necklace:  I have been wanting a neon yellow necklace FOREVER, but never really found anything I really just loved.  Then I saw Single Ladies the other night and saw April in a neon yellow rope necklace and immediately started hunting.  
3. Asos Curve Blouse With Wrap In Stripe:  I need more work appropriate shirts (hell who am I kidding, I need more shirts period) and this one is just so cute.  I love black and white and bold prints so win win!
4. no!no!™:  I HATE my shower... its small and cramped and I can't shave in it.  I need an alternative....
5. Monif C Sao Paulo" High-Waisted Plus Size Bikini Top With Underwire:  I really really really want to own a supportive, flattering swimsuit that ACTUALLY FITS... I haven't owned a swimsuit that actually fits since............ damn 7th grade.......

MORE WISHLIST ITEMS:

1. Wishful Linking Necklace:  Turquoise is my favorite and I love statement necklaces... best of both worlds!
2. Glam Glow Supermud™ Clearing Treatment:  I try and I try and I try different things on my face and never find anything that works... this may be an interesting try... (any suggestions welcome!)
3. Denton by Shoedazzle in Beige:   Classy!
4. Kate Spade Paris and the Single Girl Book Clutch:  MAJOR WISHlist item... but it soooooo cute!
5. Faux Leather Sleeve Sweater:  This sweater is bad ass!  I pinned it a while ago, but it was a dead link.... finally found it!!!  
6. Keep Calm And Wear Lipstick Phone Case:  Do I really need to explain why this is on my wishlist??
7. Lipstick Lighter:  Yeah... I really have no reason for this except for it is freaking AWESOME.
8. Fishing For Compliments Wedges:  I think I would wear these everyday... 
9. Vintage Hairstyling Book:  Anyone who knows me, knows I love pin up.  I have attempted to try classic styles, but failed... I need help!
10. Airport Greeting Cardigan: I really need to rebuild my wardrobe.  I wore a uniform for so long, I really don't have much to work with... I like pieces with interesting elements.

Tonight You're Perfect... Harlem USA Tour!!!

Last night I went to the New Politics concert in San Francisco and they do not disappoint!  It's hard to believe it is their first headlining tour because these boys know how to rock!

I first saw them when they opened up for Thirty Seconds to Mars in October of 2013.  I had heard a few of their songs and really liked them, but it wasn't until I saw them live that I gained the full appreciation that they deserve.  To really steal my heart you HAVE to be amazing live.  It is so disappointing to see someone live and they just can't hack it, but the New Politics do not fall in that category!  They have awesome stage presence and are totally engaging.  It is so nice to see passion in others and you can tell they love what they do.

I LOVED the venue.  It was the first time I had been to the Independent in San Francisco, but it will not be my last!  I love intimate type shows and the venue was just that.  So much fun, can't wait to see another show there!

The opening acts were REALLY good as well!  I had not heard of the two bands that opened, but I am always excited to hear new music.  I love being exposed to new things.  Sleeper Agent went on first.  They were a great opener.  Very energetic, songs were great and I could totally rock out to their stuff.  I really did the lead singers voice.  Next came Magic Man.  Again wildly energetic. They had a great vibe and the lead singer is totally swoon worthy so that didn't suck.

I took a ton of pictures (a lot of which didn't come out) and I think I got some really decent shots for an amateur with a camera phone.

Last night was a night to remember for a really long time and I am so glad I got to share it with my bestie Larry!  Amazing things tend to happen when I am with him, so I think I'll keep taking him to shows with me!

If you are able to catch any of these bands live DO IT!


SLEEPER AGENT:

I LOVE his guitar!!!!!!!!!!  I want it!!!!

MAGIC MAN:

NEW POLITICS: 

Love Is NOT In The Air...

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and it is a big cheesy reminder that I am still single.  Worst holiday ever!

 

I have been thinking a lot lately... mostly about how tired I am of being single, but how hopeless I am at changing that.   Why am I hopeless?  Because I am beyond scared.  A legitimate, down right,  can't move kind of fear.

So I wrote a poem...

Yes, I am scared.
Petrified actually.
Yet, it's still hard not to want such things.
Especially when everyone around you has it.

They say stop looking.
Stop wanting it, but really?
How do you stop wanting it?
How do you stop looking?

I never thought I would be here.
Scared and lonely.
I just want someone to love me.
Someone to hold me for no reason.
Someone to sit with in complete silence,
And it not be awkward at all.

I don't think I am a needy person.
I don't need to be showered with flowers
Or grand gestures of love.
Just someone to accept my flaws...
And still want me anyway.

The problem is
You have to put yourself out there.
My fear is to great to do so.
