Today I felt like an adult. I know what you are thinking, “lame story, Kendi.” What’s next are you going to finally make your bed and hang up your clothes, as well? Start paying your bills on time? Stop leaving the pizza box out at night and eating the cold pizza in the morning for breakfast? No, no guys, I wouldn’t go to that extreme. But I did handle a conflict at work today. Now I didn’t say that I handled it well, but I didn’t cry and therefore I felt more like an adult than I ever have. If there is a conflict and I am at fault, believe me there will be tears. And I wear liquid eyeliner, so there is no turning back once they start to fall. I’ve learned that people start to freak when they see those black tears, which is mainly why I wear liquid eyeliner. I like the added dramatic effect it brings to those overly emotional situations. Especially in group therapy sessions. But today I did not cry, and for that I’m proud.
So proud that I did the most adult thing I could think of. I bought a house on a credit card that I just applied for online on my lunch break. We move in on Saturday.
Props to my husband who let me borrow his belt for today. Little does he know that I’ve commandeered it for forever.
(Guys — I’m totally kidding on the house and applying for a credit card on my lunch break. But i’m not kidding about that belt, it’s mine forever.)

I love the swipe of pink in the middle of this outfit. Awesome.
And 3 cheers for being a grown up! YAY! I figure I'm a grown up whenever I wear a blazer. But even more so when I do things like go to the accountant.
We have the yellow and grey pillow too! I'm a momma and I run errands and go to the park in most of my outfits. I'm usually upfront when I change out of an outfit before going to the park. Mostly because if friends who read my blog see me they won't think, "well, she wasn't wearing that when I saw her!" Anyway, all this to say she's welcome to check out my blog: The Laundry Narrative.
Gotta admit, I'm totally jealous of these nude-colored shoes. I need to find a killer pair for myself. – Katy
You bought a house?! Can't wait to see it!
I love the turquoise necklace against that magenta stripe… the moral of the story is nude/bone coloured heels own. I have been on the hunt forever. I think it's time to really commit.
You look fabulous in all 3 of these outfits. So sassy! 🙂
Soooo….I totally just went searching high and low for a "man belt" last week, and I found a very worn and beautiful one for $1! I was so excited, and even though I had to make an extra notch so that it actually fit, I love wearing it with just about everything.
I can't wait to see how you decorate your new house on your new credit card! 🙂
First – Kudos on handling the work conflict! I've been going through some of those myself lately and been able to handle them without tears either! It does make you feel like an adult, doesn't it?
Love the turquoise necklace with this outfit! It really takes the whole thing to the next level! Love it!

Congrats on the new house!
I love your top and the fact that you're wearing your hubbys belt 🙂
xx
Absolutely love the belt. And congrats for the new apartment. Maybe I will act like an adult tomorrow. No. Maybe day after. Yeah. Day after sounds perfect. Good night Kendi. Thanks for inspiring me to be an adult!! 🙂
I love love love reading your blog. And I also cry at everything…give me a conflict, I'll give you tears. Yay for you not crying!
i had cold, leftover pizza for a snack after work today. it was delish.
i'm curious…what is the interest rate on a credit card that allows you to buy a house? and can you give me the number so i can find out if i qualify?
thanks.
you bought a house!! that is massive! congrtulations! xxx
Love the color combination! I have a necklace similar to yours and I adore it! It gets pretty heavy at the end of the day though… Congrats on your adult moment though! We are all so proud of you 🙂
i borrowed my boyfriends belt today! they just don't make thick leather belts for girls. i had to poke a new hole in it with a kitchen knife so it would fit me; but we will just keep that our little secret, right 😉
YOU are almost done with 30 for 30! I am so proud of you! I can't wait to try it again in the fall or winter. Have a wonderful weekend!

ps. well done dear 🙂
Love that bold splash of color in your blouse! I totally steal my husband's belts (well, his old ones that he doesn't fit in anymore…we can't share belts back and forth)
the part about wearing liquid eyeliner for dramatic effect cracked me up!
but yay for being an adult!
and this outfit is super cute
I love the pop of pink amongst the toffee colours.
love it! just 1 more remix outfit to go. It's been so fun seeing everyone's remixes. I was intimidated and did not join in this time, but may just have to give it a try if there's ever a re-remix.
Wow, you bought a house?! Congratulations! Good luck with the moving :.)
His belt looks great with that outfit. Way to be creative!
I love this outfit, possibly my favourite from the remix!
And brava for handling the work confrontation!
Nasty stuff-and people- don't deserve your tears – especially the black ones!
I've just opened a blog and hope you'll do again a 30×30 remix soon, I've been trying to muster the courage (and the time) to take part in this one but I miserably failed, hopefully the next time 😉
i cant tell if you're serious or not about the house. its confusing me 🙁
Help!
Moodswings — I'm totally kidding! We did not buy a house. I think we've got about 10 years before we take that type of plunge into adulthood.
But thanks for all of the congrats! Haha – I felt special…until I remembered I didn't do anything worth getting congrats for. 🙂
I am picturing True Blood tears. Awesome.
Love stealing clothes from the boy 🙂
i, on the other hand, shed MANY tears yesterday because of three very stressful interactions! bah! tell me, how do you do it? seriously, i locked myself in a bathroom stall on multiple occassions! (i think everyone thinks i have a bladder problem.)
Hahaha, I love that people read that and really believed you bought a house. And I also love a good liquid eyeliner tear, a la Lauren Conrad 😉
Lol, I totally empathize with you on that. When I don't cry in conflict, I congratulate myself since it's a rare feat.
Totally agree with KT. Those nude shoes are sweet.
I love that you wore your husband's belt. I'm wishing my bf's wardrobe was expansive enough for me to score something for my own from it. 🙂
I've thought you were a talented fashionista since the minute I stumbled across your blog. (Ok, no actual stumbling…just a link. I did not hurt myself.) But I think you're an even more talented writer.
Sad to say, I've been a grown-up (in years) for quite some time and I still cry when addressed by someone of authority. My eyes begin to water before I even know what they want to talk to me about. So I'm jealous. I hope to out grow that one day. It looks like you're well on your way.
I totally get the pizza and bills and not hanging the clothes. I could really relate to this post. And what's even more embarrassing is that I'm a bone fide grown-up with three kids and a mortgage.
Thanks for this post…and every post. I love to look at your blog and dream that I had places to wear animal print skirts and suede heels.
Oh, and I stole my husbands belt to wear over a very similar skirt a few weeks ago and he hasn't missed it yet.
You're my role model. I wish I had a credit card big enough to buy a house with. ;o) lol…
Cute outfit K! I have one pair of neutral shoes like that… I never really know what to pair them with.
love the turquoise and purple combo!
http://www.keepfashion.wordpress.com
this color combinations is glorious! and being grown up is soooo over-rated!
Lol, such a cute look. That belt is definitely theft-worthy.
Melanie@UnravelledThreads
nice outfit i really like your top!
I can't wait to see your 30th outfit! 🙂
I've been thinking about stealing (borrowing) my husband's clothes, and I tried on one of his belts the other day… however he is quite a bit bigger than me and it looked silly 🙁
I wore my hubby's belt today! Haha…that's weird, I didn't even read this before hand. I just really wanted a brown belt and he and I are almost the same size!
http://outfitdiary.blogspot.com/2010/08/friday-his-brown-belt.html
Love this outfit!
I wanted to steal my husband's belt once (he owns more than I do) but then I thought he might get mad about all the extra holes I'd have to make…
Kendi, you just shot to the top of my favorite blogger list! Not only are you hilarious and helpful (I need to try that eyeliner trick!) but your outfits rock!
Nice sharing she activities.
