I always love seeing posts where people list out what they are obsessed with. Lately I have been finding myself being a real lunatic about certain things. Wanna see them…Here they go
Arm Candy: OMG! I have been scouring the Goodwill and Value Village for cheap bracelets. Pinterest hasn’t helped.

Thrifting: Seriously I have probably been to the thrift store 8 times in the past week. I just kept finding great stuff and it was like an addiction. I went the other day and didn’t find anything so I guess I’m good for the next week. Funny story: There was a purse that I saw that made my heart race. Sad for me it didn’t have a tag on it so they had to send it back and it was to come back out in 24 hours. I called and went to the store 3 times in one day stalking it. I never got it. I’m still sad. It was perfect. It was this. Brand new. *Weeps on my keyboard*
Future: I am ashamed to say this. God is still working on me but I haven’t enjoyed a hoodmusic CD this much in a very long time. If I was still into the club scene I would go to hear this played at large bass filled volumes
House of Consignment: This show is on VH1 and chronicles the journey of Corri as she grows her Ebay business E Dropoff. Totally inspiring.
New iPhone Release: I have scoured the interwebs looking for a release date of the iPhone 5. My upgrade is May 1 and my phone desperately needs to be put down, but I can’t stomach getting an iPhone and a month later the new one comes out. If its October like some say, I may have to roll with Siri. I can’t continue to cut the side of my face with broken shards of glass.
Who or what are you obsessed with these days?

April 24, 2012 at 8:29 amI haven’t been thrifting in so long but next week I’ll be back at it again and I’m trying to get into the arm candy. I didn’t even know a new iPhone is coming out. I’ve been lusting after one and my contract just ended.

April 24, 2012 at 8:34 amI need to listen to that future or is it pluto sorry I don’t know but I love that song at the same* word* time. I love bracelets it’s so hard to find to fit my big arms so I have to be careful to get one that won’t squeeze the life out of me trying to get it on my arms. I am currently obsessed with the show scandal…that is all.

April 24, 2012 at 10:23 amI’m liking arm candy too, but right now I’m slightly obsessed with growing my library with must have books. Doesn’t help when Mr. C gives me the okay to buy as many books as I want. Darn him and love him.

April 25, 2012 at 5:25 pmI go through phases too when I’m all about books. There is a bookstore here called Books a Million and they will put hardbacks on sale for $3 I’ll go and spend $30 ask me how many of those books I have read!

April 25, 2012 at 5:54 pmWe’re twins. I love nail polish I did a post about my crazy collection about a month ago. I love the hairbows, so much so that I watched a ton of Youtube videos to figure out how to make them because I wanted some in every color to match all of the baby’s outfits!My husband gets mad with me after church. I say turn down this street or turn here. I love looking at houses. I’ll even go in the model homes for decor inspiration.

And lastly i’ve always been obsessed with my hair. It had to be perfect or i get all annoyed with it. I don’t like stray hairs flying all over the place or curls that come undone. It’s a problem, it really is lol

April 24, 2012 at 3:18 pmThese are totally not bad obsessions. None will make you gain weight, or break your piggy bank, so they’re all good with me! I have become obsessed, however, with Pinterest and Starbucks…so I am wasting money and wasting time! Double fail! LOL!

April 24, 2012 at 5:28 pmI am currently obsessed with The Weeknd. I know this little boy/man/whatever is not singing/rapping about anything that is remotely close to anything that I have or will be doing, but sometimes the ratchet, hood chick from the Bronx comes out and I have to groove to him! Especially his remake of Dirty Diana! Oh, and nail polish! I bought the Nails Inc. Baker Street Blue with the blinged out top at Sephora yesterday for $25.00! I know I must have bumped my head! I. Don’t. Spend. Money. Like. That.!!!!!! Dah well… o_O
