Vegetables?

I have a lot of things that I want to share real quick. First, did you watch Shaun White win gold last night? I don't know snowboarding very well, but I do know that once I saw him out there it was quite obvious he was in a league of his own. And, how about those Burton uniforms? I saw them when I was at Outdoor Retailer in Salt Lake City. I don't know if you can tell from what you saw on tv, but the pants are printed as such to look like worn denim. The print is extremely photo real. It's pretty crazy. Below is a photo.I would like to point out that the Polo uniforms the United States wore to the opening ceremony are TERRIBLE! You can see them on the Ralph Lauren homepage. You might think they look okay on these models, but put them on athletes and they just look wrong. I couldn't find any good photos to post here.

My company had the opportunity to outfit the Canadian moguls team. I think they are nice and clean and looked great on tv! You can read about our uniforms here.

Enough about the Olympics. I have some other things to show you too. I spent some time discussing the "Flying Tomato" above as Shaun White is sometimes called. Today I felt like a vegetable as well. Ok, maybe a tomato is a fruit, but a carrot is a vegetable and I wore a lot of orange today. I got these sweet orange tights in New York. I wish I could remember the name of the chain. They were only $4.90. But, I haven't worn them because the only dress with orange on it I had involved a lot of it. I didn't think they would work together. Well, I haven't done laundry for a while so I ended up pairing them together. I think it was a bit too much, but looking down at those colors kind of brightened my day today. I'm still doing laundry tonight though.
Also, this is my necklace rack. It used to belong to my grandma. My sisters and I would play dress up with her necklaces when we were little kids. She gave it to me when she moved. I absolutely love it and have finally been able to set it up. She has also given me a lot of her necklaces so it is extra special to me because it is suck a wonderful way to display them.I hope you enjoyed reading through this Sorry it was a bit long! I know I wouldn't have read through the whole thing if I were you. You should get a prize for finishing this.
