Fashion Friday: 3 New Target Dresses

A surprising amount of my clothes come from Target. I get a lot of Target gift cards and I find a lot of great-looking clothes there. They also have tons of vegan shoes and bags! I recently got a nice gift card and went shopping for some dresses because it is HOT in Los Angeles and I've decided I hate pants. Oh, and I have great legs that the world needs to see.

I bought three dresses. For each one I took cell phone pictures and sent them to my mom to get her opinions. So I'll show you those pictures and then how I styled them!

1) The purple floral dress - $25

I love this dress. It's an easy, classic fit I can just throw on and I like the purple print. There were a lot of patterns and I had a hard time figuring out which one I liked the best!



I meant to get more pictures. Oh, well!

2) The bright red dress - $25


I love the color - it's brighter than you can tell. I usually detest ruffles but I like them on this dress.

Here's how I styled it for my trip to SAG:



Over-the knee socks - Target
Vegan motorcycle boots - Ikon & Co. - $40

Next up - a dress that didn't make the cut:

I liked the print on this dress and how lightweight it was, but it got a big fat no from my mom and the friend I was shopping with and that was enough for me. I think it could have been better if it were a few inches shorter.

3) The LBD - on clearance for $7!



I see a lot of options for this dress - it's very versatile.

It actually has straps:


But they're too long so I figured out I could tuck them in and make it a strapless. It's so fitted through the bodice that it stays up great and supports the boobies.


With my chucks and an awesome necklace.


With some friends at a party last night.

Happy Fashion Friday!

Transfer of Life Safety Code Oversight from CDPHE to DPS in accordance with HB 12-1268: Progress Report

Facility Administrators Please click here to find a progress report on the implementation of House Bill 12-1268 which transfers Life Safety Code (LSC) oversight from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) to the Department of Public Safety (DPS) effective July 1, 2013. Both agencies will be involved in licensure and Medicare/Medicaid certification of facilities (for hospice this only includes those with inpatient beds), so to date, HB1268 implementation has focused on the new infrastructure needed to transition responsibility and create a smooth workflow between CDPHE to DPS.

Quinoa Salad and My Busy Life

Image
On Friday night a (vegan) friend of mine hosted a potluck with about ten friends. I wanted to bring something tasty but also healthy that I would want to eat if I got stuck with leftovers, so I made a big quinoa salad! And then I kept a lot of it for me. =) I just cooked up some quinoa and added a can of chickpeas, a red onion, a few carrots, a few cucumbers, and a miso seasoning. I used this cool stuff I found at Gelsons the other day: It makes instant miso soup but also works great as a sauce. I also added spicy mustard and rice wine vinegar. I ate quinoa salad leftovers on lettuce and spinach for the next couple days. Yum. On Monday I started my improv 201 classes! I'm loving them already. My day was jam-packed and I was out of the house from 10 AM to 11:30 PM. I brought an apple, a grapefruit, and some edamame to eat throughout the day. After my improv class I went over to an actor friend's house where we've started a little cold reading class of our own just for practi...
