Lying Cupcakes, Geek Plushies & Toy Shopping

I haven't shared random pics from my phone in ages, so I have some fun ones saved up:

:D

 The cupcakes were a lie, y'all.

 (Dollar Tree, you've betrayed me!)

If it's still here come Christmas I'm decorating this bad boy.

I found the frame first at Ross, then the star at TJ Maxx (for only $8!), and figured they were made for each other.

These are pretty tiny, though, so I wanted to hang them somewhere eye-level:

 

It seems fitting above the light switch.

(This is Eva's namesake, btw, which is why I love Christie's art so much!)

 

Speaking of my fuzzy star:

 Hee.

This is actually a bit bittersweet - I still consider that someone else's spot - but I'm working to focus on the sweet.

Oh, and here's Suki being all refined and elegant ::snerk::

 

She's sitting on her own giant tail. Ha!

I got a hard dose of reality thanks to the new Wizards Unite game:

 Boops.

It's, uh, a little embarrassing.

And when I *did* finally leave the house I lost two duels because I couldn't figure out how to point my wand! ARG.
 

But hey, eventually:

 In case you're wondering what it takes to get me out in the 95 degree heat.

 

These things are all from FYE in the mall. Most of their stuff is too pricey for my cheap self, but they have the best plushies, and sometimes their clearance has a few bargains.

I was this close to buying the $10 cupcake, even though I've never played Five Nights At Freddy's. Look how they're glowing! No filter, and my hand looks like it's on fire!

 John's cat selfie up there was taken at a store called Riley Rose, which has a cute mix of makeup, housewares, and accessories. I found the best thing in the whole store for only $4, though:

Move over lobster bisque... it's time for LOBSTER BURLESQUE.

 (I danced this thing all around the store. Poor John.)

 And while I'm providing this important service, here's the best thing currently being sold at Box Lunch:

HOW CUTE IS THIS BEAST BAG? (But no, I didn't buy it.)

And the best thing at Hot Topic:

On clearance for $15! So yes, I did buy it. (Or rather John did, ha.)

I'm sure I'll eventually do a more formal update, but here's a little progress:

I had some hilarious suggestions on what to do with my hand, but my favorite read:

"Hold a sword. Obvsly."

So now I need to buy a sword.

:D

I don't wear makeup at home - which I prefer to have on for full-face selfies - but I'm still working at it:

 

 Big hair always helps.

Also I meant it when I told y'all to take pictures of your feet!

 I really like my shoes most days.

Those sandals are my holy grail of footwear, btw: took me over 6 months of buying and returning pairs to find ones wide enough for my feet, comfy enough to walk in all day, and cute enough to wear with dresses. They're by Hush Puppy, and less than $40 - I linked them in my "Stuff Jen Wears" list.

Let's finish up with the last bit of random fun stuff:

 

My Donald cubby in my office. I like clumping all my collections together like this.

And finally, a quick shout out to one of my favorite Disney photogs:

Doug does the most amazing composite edits, and this was actually his first one! I've since found out he's a proud Hufflepuff and a really great guy. That's one of the nice things about sharing people's work online: sometimes it starts up a conversation I'd be too shy to start otherwise. Anyway, go follow Doug on Instagram, you're gonna love his stuff.
