Snow? In May?

Yes, you read it right!  In New Mexico we do have 4 separate seasons, but it never fails it always seems to snow one more time right after Spring is in full swing!  It was a beautiful 85 degrees yesterday, and today it is 41 with snow!  I took some pictures out my window just now to show you what I mean:



This is today from my bedroom window & across the street is a shopping center and the flag is always there, that's how I can tell when it's going to be a windy day!


This is what it looked like about a week ago when this picture was taken.  You can always see the mountains, except.....


for today, this is what it looks like.

In the few minutes I've been writing this post the snow is already gone and the sun is out.  Talk about weather being unpredictable!  Hope you guys are having a relaxing Sunday.  Until next time!

Getting to know me.....

First of all, I'd like to welcome you to my very 1st Blog!  My name is Lori and I was born and raised here in Albuquerque, NM.  It's one of the most beautiful places in the USA.  I have always been a Girly Girl, but I don't ever mind getting my hands dirty!  I got my first pair of heels when I was 12 years old!  I remember them well, in fact they are now back in style....uh hum..... now I'm just aging myself ;) 

One of the reasons for this blog is to find "My Fashion Style."  I am a self-proclaimed shopaholic and I go through clothes like crazy, because I get bored of wearing the same thing more than a few times.  So I go through my closet and give what I don't wear anymore to charity, then I go buy more.  It's what I do :)

I love thrift shops and I am very budget minded!  That is another reason I started this blog, so I can pass on to you some tips on paying less for clothing & beauty products.  I hardly ever pay full price for anything (Unless I really, really want it!) and I can spot a Clearance sign from a mile away! 

I am also an Amateur Photographer, so I will be posting pictures not only of my outfits, but pictures I've taken in New Mexico, so you can get an idea of what it looks like where I live.  I'm still working on setting up the blog, as it is very new to me, but I can't wait to get to know anyone who subscribes!  Please know that I will always appreciate you for taking the time to read my posts and I will try to answer any questions you may have.  Until then...Here are a few pictures of me from the past few years, so you know what I look like.
