Friday's Fancies + Have an Amazing Weekend

Game Day Fancies by meaganpie featuring lace up booties

This week's Friday's Fancies theme is centered around game day.  With both college and pro football under way I figured I'd join in the fun and show my Bears spirit!  Last week's game was incredibly exciting (I had no faith that they were going to do well this year but I was proven wrong last Sunday, we'll see if that lasts...) and I'm very curious to see how they'll fare against the Saints on their home turf.  Go Bears!

What are you all up to this weekend?  We have some exciting things in store.  The Drive-In is calling our name and I could not be more thrilled about it!  I haven't been to a drive-in in eons even though I've been yearning to for years now.  Contagion and Horrible Bosses are playing back-to-back, so why not!  We're also celebrating a birthday again with a fun family dinner and hopefully we can journey to Bardstown, KY for the annual bourbon festival to make the hubs a happy man.  Whatever you get up to this weekend, I hope it's amazing!

Don't forget to enter the giveaway!  You have until Sunday at 10 p.m. est.  

Footie Fever

Ladies and gentleborts, I apologize if you don't see or hear from me for the next 4 weeks or so: I am mostly watching the World Cup.


These are my boys. Despite a disappointing performance from the Azzurri yesterday, I put it down to their typical arrogance (and good looks). I still have plenty of faith that the Cup will be going home again this year.

I'm an Italy supporter all the way. I only support England if they're playing the US. Then I go to a bar and sing football songs as loudly and obnoxiously as possible...

I've got to hand it to the US though, it was a fair game.


I'm excited for a lot of teams: Europeans (Germany looks incredibly hot, well, efficient; Spain), Africans (Go Ghana! Côte d’Ivoire are about to go on and I can't wait to see if Drogba can play through his injury. And SA deserve to go far on their home turf), and of course all the S.American big guns will be playing in the next few days.


There's great coverage on Vanity Fair (yes, including topless hotties), the FIFA World Cup website and ESPN3.com of course! I also found a list of Chicago venues showing most or all of the games.



The time difference for the matches is already killing me a bit, and I might have to skimp a bit on sleep in order to catch the games and still have a career, but the World Cup happens once every 4 years and it's Just Too Exciting!!!
