WIWW. Crazy Cat Lady. Shoes. Vlogs. Other Stuff.

Linking up here.
shirt: walmart (3 for $7 - mens section, refashioned to fit snugly) sweater&belt: c/o sugarlips apparel (purchase here) pants: walmart shoes: ebay
You guys. I think I'm a real blogger now - I got this sweater from Sugarlips Apparel, and I am soo in love with it - it's lightweight and incredibly comfortable, plus it came with this adorable belt. It just doesn't get any better than that. If you're looking for a new store to spend all of your hard-earned money, well, then... go here

In other news... I have compiled a list of Three Ways to Know You are a Crazy Cat Lady [it would be 5 but I'm running late on time]: 

1. You put your cat on a leash and take him for walks. I think this is self-explanatory.

2. You talk to your cat. I'm talkin' full-on conversations. Like the one I had with Zeuss this morning, when I ranted to him about how difficult finding a balance is. He understands - all that napping, stalking, and eating is hard work, you know.

3. You take family photos with your cat, and put them on your christmas cards. Make sure he is appropriately clothed, though. 
ANYWAY, it's now time for the What's on Your Feet? vlog linkup. Watch. Enjoy. Make fun of me. Watch others. Enjoy them. Make fun of them. And then go link up your own vlog!
Hope Squared
And FINALLY.... I have a giveaway for you all... mostly because you are amazing. And cool. And all that other stuff. Here's what you can win - enter in the Rafflecopter form below, one winner takes all this time (YES! IT'S OPEN INTERNATIONALLY!).

Rima said...

lolol... if only i can get Chimmy to get all festive with doggy xmas clothes.

Jennie said...

Oh gosh..........I have played that game and liked it!

Funny story, one time my best friend was making fun of her husband for playing a nerdy computer game and I asked him what it was. It was Age of the Empires and I HAVE THAT GAME AND I LOVE IT. We all laughed at each other.

Miki {Becoming What I Always Was} said...

I think we are best friends now. First off my husband was as excited as yours when mike mentioned golden eye. Jared was thinking the vlog was about that.. He was wrong! I am in complete agreeance with your shoe judgement. I don't like flats either. I love heels, and love shoes! Jared says the same thing to me about my animal print shoes, no matter what they look like he says Ohhh hooker shoes today?? Urg! 5000 awesome point for me for NOT enjoying the booty dance :) and 5000 more because my favorites were your wedding shoes! Too adorable, and both animal print shoes you showed!

Jazmine G. said...

Ok I thought Miki had a bad shoe addiction but holy crap girl, you have A LOT of shoes!!! I wouldn't be able to keep that many shoes in my closet. lol

Natasha Louise said...

hhaaaaa your cat ona leash, best pic ever!!! and YAY shoes, I got excited to watch that!! I have to say, for ages I wanted a pair of Birkenstock's on my feeeeeeet, but my feet are so tiny and narrow, the pair I had just didn't look right so I gave then away. I am loving your go to winter shoes, i want those. And your husband made me smile when he nerded out, because he reminded me of my big nerdy husband to be and I love that!! Yay shoes and nerds!

Lena @ Mom2MemphisAndRuby said...

Haha! Loved this!
Newest follower, thanks for co-hosting!

Laura said...

You crack me up. I love your sweater! Have a good day lady!

Laura said...

ps. your husband is too cute!

Georgina Castellucci said...

Lol I still haven't posted about my SugarLips dress yet - it is surprisingly cute (but a bit short.) That sweater looks great on you.

Jess Frost said...

I really want to see you do an outfit post - what you wore to church...wearing your hooker leopard print heels! do it! do it!

Samara said...

Oh my- I totally have plans to make a family photo Christmas cards this year...but with Nibbles. So I'm a crazy rabbit lady I suppose :P

I loved that picture of you walking Zeuss- hilarious :P

Maša said...

does your cat like to go on walks? I'm moving soon and I'm really concerned about the transition cause I don't want him to run away.

thanks for the giveaway!

Beth @ dot...in the city said...

I love that sweater, looks so comfy and versatile!

Brianna said...

I'm totally a crazy cat lady. I DO have full-on, deep conversations with my cat! And she talks back, no less!

rooth said...

Hahaha, I'm laughing at your picture of Zeuss on a leash. So brilliant.

Andi of My Beautiful Adventures said...

GORGEOUS sweater!!!!!

Krysten @ Why Girls Are Weird said...

When I had cats I used to try to walk them and they HATED it lol. Does yours like it?

RadiantKristen said...

It's okay to be a crazy cat lady. Really. I talk to Beckham like he's my kid.

Your wedding shoes are gorgeous. I love them, and I love that they aren't white... or blue. So boring. You got a little spicy!

And I love that Mike makes it a point to insert himself into vlogs. He's a hilarious blogger-husband.

Katrin said...

Haha, I love that you are a crazy cat lady! My Grandma did the leash thing too. :) And I love your Christmas card!
And another vlog! Yay!

Whitney H said...

I would totally wear that outfit AND put my cat on a leash. We're meant to be friends.

kimberrleigh said...

I can join you in cat-lady world. Since I'm single and just moved to a new city, my cat is my bff. We read blogs together, play video games and eat dinner together.

Yeah, I'm probably never getting married.... :(

Raych said...

I have done all three of those things with cats AND dogs. I think that just makes me a crazy animal person. Could be worse. At least I'm not a crazy animal hoarder! (not yet at least)

chickenboo said...

I love to see cats on leashes. I'm not sure why though.

meet.make.laugh. said...

Hahah I have a leash for my kitten but have yet to use it other then to take her to the vet... I guess I haven't full on qualified for crazy cat lady. I definitely have full conversations with her though.

Also - that sweater is wicked. ~Stephanie

Sarah Kate said...

Does it mean anything to you that your cat is totally showing you up in that Christmas card photo? Something to remember for this years photo... ;o)

Ashley said...

You with that cat on a leash is just about the best thing I've seen all day.

his little lady said...

yep, you have officially reached crazy cat lady status. haha, you are just too funny girl!

Jules said...

Too funny, I just bought our cat a leash and my daughte swears I am committing social suicide in her name! The cat loves to go for walks!

simplyevani.com said...

Legittttt, congrats on the "compliments of" sweater, that IS really the measure of making it as a blogger! Now if only a cat food company could sponsor you... ;)

Thanks for the laugh! Stopping by from WIWW.

Kassi Mortensen said...

You crack me up walking your cat! Who puts a cat on a leash... Oh yeah, Alyx. ;)

Kelly said...

WOW I love that sweater! It looks so comfortable!
And LOL to your crazy-cat lady list. I love that you put your kitty on a leash, and it's doubly awesome he/she is on your christmas card. I am a bit of a crazy cat person too. Anytime I walk by a cat, I feel the need to stop and yell "KITTY!" in a high-pitched voice before I realize what I'm doing...

lori said...

hahahah ohhh alyx, i love the crazy cat lady comments. i am totally one of those, too. had to show my hubs pictures of the kitty on a leash. we bought one for mine, but he would NOT have it.

Paige said...

Mmkay so I already tweeted you about how awesome your husband is and how Golden Eye is AMAZING!
But I wanted to leave a legit comment.

I srsly can't decide if I want a pair of cowboy boots! I feel like I should have them because I live in the South lol

and I think I just got rid of my birkenstocks but I loooved them! They got really smelly lol I've had a couple of pairs in my life.(And I am German so I guess that's why I had them!)

I love your heels collection! I always want to buy heels but I think I will never wear them so I don't buy very many!

Lindsay said...

That holiday photo is ah-mazing. I love it. Maybe you should do a what does your cat wear series ;). Love, love that sweater and those shoes! Popping over from WIWW.

Emily said...

your husband is amazing. I hope he totally played it. And the laughing in the background - ugh. Best.blogging.couple.ever.

Dude - your collection is insane. I am jealous of those braided birks. Totally my fav. Gimmie those points.

And you're right - jeans and running shoes. No thank you.

I am so glad that you co-hosted with us.

Emily said...

OH and how did I miss the cat on a leash picture? AMAZING. I am dying to do this to Basil.

Amanda Cobb said...

I love your purple booties!! Want.

I am the opposite of you in the heels vs. ballet flats argument. I LOVE ballet flats (and just flats in generals) and really only trot out serious heels for special/dress-up occasions. Kitten heels and moderate wedges are ok, but platforms and super high heels are a no-go for me.

Katie @ My Darling Days said...

That IS a pretty fancy sweater you're rocking there... I happen to love it because I have never seen anything like it. Way to Rock it Alyx. Oh and your shoes. Love 'em!

No(dot dot)el said...

Alyx you crack me right up. Love the Cat on the Leash ;)

Kym said...

Ok, so much to say. First let's talk about the video. Whether I get awesome points or not, I adore your silver gladiator sandals. Like, I want them. I want to come to your house and take them. Oh, and I'm sorry to tell you that I super enjoy Mike's booty dancing. Again, whether awesome points are involved or not, it just puts a smile on my face. Seriously, though, why is he so good at it? lol

Congrats on getting free swag from Sugarlips!!! Yay for free clothes, amiright?!

And now let's talk about what is clearly some sort of mental problem. You put your cat on a leash!!! And you dress him up for xmas photos!!! Bahahahahaha!! You're crazier than I thought! In a hilarious, totally crazy cat lady way. Just...wow, Alyx...wow....

p.s. - I'll be expecting a Christmas card this year. Featuring Zeuss looking harassed.

Andiepants said...

You are a hilarious cat lady!!! I have my own little 4 legged meow friend. I haven't walked him on a leash in awhile, but I definitely talk to him and bathe him. He can be like a dog sometimes, waking me up on my bed, fetching, biting...the works!!!
