Halloween Queen OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Halloween Queen OOTD! When you see my OOTDs for the first time, anything unsightly in the scenery has been removed. In the bloopers, however, I let it all hang out lol. When I was shooting this look, I didn’t realize that I was standing right by a freaking drain pipe and I’m genuinely unsure how I didn’t notice. It was staring me right in the face SMH! Take a look at these yikes shots starring the drain pipe and featuring Lil Red:

Looking straight up INSANE. I guess all the scary movies I have been watching inspired me

Talk about wind in the whole body, amiright?

Just showing off my awesome Sprinkler dance move

Lol this little incline got the best of me SEVERAL times!!

Bringing down the house and doing the absolute best I can

Looking like I saw a ghost! It is spooky season so I wouldn’t be surprised!

I am so beautiful ❤

As you all know, Johnny and I have been completing the 31 scary movies in 31 days challenge for October. We take turns picking the movie of the day and I genuinely can’t wait to come home at the end of work to see what we’re going to watch next. While Johnny and I like to pride ourselves in our absolutely amazing taste in everything, there have definitely been movies in our selection that have actively sucked lol. For the most part, we can withstand a flick and say it was pretty good at the end. However, there have been two movies that are just WOOF with a capital W O O F.

Our most recent stinker was the original I Know What You Did Last Summer, as per Johnny’s choice. It has been SO long since I watched that movie at some slumber party or another so I had no qualms about rewatching it because I forgot everything lol. Also, the remake that was released over the summer was enjoyable so we figured it couldn’t be all bad. WRONG. Guys, wtf? The original sucked on ice. So much so that we talked the entire duration of the first half of the movie and promptly shut it off. I understand it’s somewhat of a cult classic but it was a total what happened for us! I promise, you’re much better off watching The Room. 😉

I regret to inform you that the selection that was the worst was my choice and mine alone. Even though I try to pin it on Johnny every chance I get! It was called We’re All Going To The World Fair and we watched it last year for our 31 for 31. It was so bad, so pointless, so incredibly stupid that I daresay I Know What You Did Last Summer was better and that’s really saying something. Because Johnny doesn’t read my blog as he lives my blog, he will not know that I admitted guilt in picking this movie. So, yes, I will continue to put the blame *jokingly* on my main squeeze! ❤

These two movies were the biggest duds in the entirety of our 31 for 31 challenge. If you are participating too, please skip on these flicks and you can thank me when you watch something infinitely better. Literally anything will be!

What is the worst movie you have ever seen? What is your favorite cult classic movie? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Concert Cutie OOTD Bloopers

Concert Cutie OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Concert Cutie OOTD! These pics were taken before an absolutely fabulous night seeing The Struts and thank goodness we didn’t take them after because I was a sweaty mess. I love styling OOTDs for concerts because it provides the perfect opportunity to not only show out but stand out in the crowd. It gives you the chance to be bold, have fun, and put on a fit that you might not normally wear on a normal outing. My look to see The Struts was Spice Girls inspired and it is one of my favorite ones yet – I had to go full glam to be in the presence of glam party rockers! I put my best face and fit forward but in these pics, the face leaves a lot to be desired lol check it out:

Don’t mind me, it’s my first day with my hands

Why do I always have to get an itch at the most inconvenient time?

Apparently I REALLY had to go to the bathroom

Wiping the sweat from my furrowed chin

Look out! Sexy lady coming through!!

Fist pumping like champs

Off to the show BYE!!!!

This has nothing to do with the concert but it is a funny story nonetheless. The concert was my belated birthday gift and our sweet niece recently turned three. Her party was held at Chuck E. Cheese… Excuse me – Charles Entertainment Cheese. I honestly didn’t even know this place still existed, all I knew was that my mom absolutely despised taking me and my siblings there when we were little. And, believe you me, I get it. It’s a germ buffet and all of the characters are creepy AF! Funny enough, my birthday girl and eldest niece held similar sentiments. They LIVED for the games but are terrified of Chuck E.! Whenever the character actor would roll through the function, they both ran away like their lives depended on it. Lol, I guess it was a small price to pay for arcade games, pizza, and a Bluey cake!

Johnny and I were in stitches throughout the event because Chuck E. Cheese serves booze, which is wild. There is a catch, though. Two drinks maximum and one drink per hour which is probably a good thing considering there was a point when fights were breaking out at Charles Entertainment constantly. As we sipped our White Claw and played games so our nieces could cash in the tickets we won for prizes, we joked that it was our favorite bar lolol. As we had to work the following day, we decided to get a personal pizza to go and share it. Guys, I kid you not, this pizza literally looked like play food. You know the kind – the plastic pizza with Velcro to attach the slices. It also tasted like what I assume play food tastes like lol. But, hey, it was a small price to pay to celebrate one of our favorite little ladies and play ALL the Skee Ball! 😀

If you have a Chuck E. Cheese in the area, I highly recommend taking your kiddos because it’s straight up hilarious. 15/10 experience sans the scary costumed rat!!!

How would you celebrate your birthday when you were little? What is something that creeped you out in your youth? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Summer Breeze OOTD Bloopers

Summer Breeze OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Summer Breeze OOTD! This little look was worn for a Date Day with my main squeeze and it was a fabulous time! It was also a fabulous fit too and we made the photo shoot work despite the heat. It was seriously hot AF and we were sweating buckets by the time we made it into the restaurant we went to for lunch. But, hey, that’s show biz baby! Take a peek at some of these yikes shots and let’s discuss an update on one of my summer goals that didn’t work out so great:

Straight up CACKLING at something or other Johnny said. Look, mom, no cavities!

FE FI FO FUM

Literally blinded by the light (Revved up like a deuce another runner in the night)

Using my arms for the first time

Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Lil Red

LMAO at this face

Peep these PANTALOONS!!!!

As you all know, I simply REFUSE to get my vividly dyed hair wet to keep that color fresh until my next hair appointment. Because of this charming quirk, it makes the activity of swimming literally impossible and is more like wading and treading water instead. I have always said that if I ever were to swim swim, that I would get a swimming cap and have never done so… Until my trip to Idlewild Park and SoakZone with my family. I wanted to swim in the pool at the hotel with my littles and live it up at the water park and was not going to let anything get in my way!

After our first day at Idlewild, I was determined to hit the pool as soon as we got to the hotel to give my bright purple swim cap a test run. Within five minutes, my bikini was on, my hair was safely tucked away under the cap, and I was ready to do this thing! I jumped right into the pool and started front stroke, back stroke, and breast stroking away. I was swimming laps like it was my job and it felt so great! After a half hour or so, I was wiped out and made my way back to the room to see how the swim cap fared and… it didn’t. My hair was soaked and I was PISSED. -_- (Also I learned that swim caps weren’t made to keep hair dry which is something I should have Googled in advance SMFH. Such a good idea in theory!)

As I lamented in the bathroom and brushed out my wet hair that was bleeding color profusely, a small silver bag by the hotel provided toiletries caught my eye. It was a shower cap! Since the swim cap didn’t do NOTHING, I figured I might as well give the shower cap a go at the water park the following day. And you know what? It worked like a charm! In fact, I was getting compliments on my hair left and right at SoakZone because everyone could tell exactly why that shower cap was on to begin with despite me sticking out like a sore thumb. A shower cap might not be the move for actual swimming but it did the job perfectly at the water park and that was good enough for me!

Even though my swim cap idea was a bust from its conception, it still felt amazing to swim and major ups to the shower cap for coming through in the clutch. VERY NICE!

What is one of your quirks? What is your favorite summertime activity? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Fun In The Sun OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Fun In The Sun OOTD! These pictures were taken during our Fourth of July getaway to Geneva On The Lake while the pasty pale was still pasty and not pink with the worst sunburns ever. Like seriously, if I could stop peeling any time now that would be GREAT! While the sunburns were a major buzzkill, I can’t say I’m not surprised. This is why you will rarely find your favorite vampire couple outdoors in the midst of summer! Let’s get started by looking at some yikes shots:

Not the most logical footwear for a day on the lake but I stand by my choice!

Queen of The Lake or blocking the sun? It’s both! 😀

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine!

That sunshine got me like

Perfecting my mannequin pose

My arms just have a mind of their own!

Quick lil tummy check lol

As you all know, Johnny and I have a downstairs neighbor who is most beloved to us. We love getting to see him every day and always look forward to our movie nights, dinner club meetings, and going shooting at the range. He is simply the best! Unfortunately, he had to be hospitalized and is currently doing MUCH better and regaining his strength at a rehab center before he comes home. Johnny and I have been visiting him regularly at the rehab facility and, honestly, it sounds like the place to be because my mind was BLOWN during my first visit.

While we were chewing the fat, we got a knock on the door from the Enrichment Director of the facility to talk about the activities for the day. I expected something typical like Bingo or a movie. I was dead wrong! The plan for the day was a resident’s birthday party with snacks, cake, and booze followed by Happy Hour with beer and wine! I have been to several different rehab facilities for loved ones and my line of work and have never heard of such awesome activities. We couldn’t help but have a laugh because I couldn’t not joke about the brilliance of this idea: Get the people good and drunk, they will fall, and stay in the rehab longer! Of course, I kid and it is a doctor approved and monitored drink but, hey, it sure sounds like a lot of fun! ❤

All I have to say is, I know EXACTLY where I’m going if I ever have to go to a rehab facility. The place was beautiful, the staff was lovely, and the activities can’t be beat! 😀

Do you have a favorite neighbor? What do you like to do when you get together? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Brunch Babe OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Brunch Babe OOTD! There is nothing better than wearing new clothes and I was so excited to bust out my new top featured in this look by Caroline Constas. It was the ultimate Brunch Babe, farmers market fierce little number I needed for a late morning trip to First Watch! Before I could ever so carefully dig into brunch to avoid a spill on my new duds, pictures were in order. Take a peek at these yikes pics and let’s discuss an instance that simply delighted me this past week:

Apparently REALLY deep in thought or sleep

Hanging on for dear life

The queen of brunch making an appearance

Hanger may or may not have been setting in

Flipping the hair to shake off any negativity

When I was little, I prided myself on being the best “finder” lol. Someone in my family was always losing something and I was excellent at finding where the misplaced item was. In my old age, however, I fear I may be losing my touch. My eldest niece decided to put together a scavenger hunt with Bluey toys for her little sister at chez grandparents. Lil sis ended up finding almost all of them, but big sis forgot where she put two of the toys (lol) and my parents asked if I would look for them. I searched high and low for the members of the Bluey gang for what felt like forever and, sadly, had no luck. Luckily, I manifested finding something else instead…

For Christmas, I got my mom a gift card to Elysian Nails. Fast forward a few months later when she was ready to cash in her manicure and we couldn’t find the gift card anywhere. Like the Bluey toys, I looked everywhere and ended up convinced it might have been thrown out on accident. When I was on my own scavenger hunt for Bluey’s friends, I thought about how awesome it would be to find the gift card too. A minute or two later, I took off the lid of a decorative pot in the kitchen and gasped at its contents. The Elysian Nails gift card was sitting three feet from my usual spot at the kitchen table this entire time! It was a Christmas in July miracle but I am not hanging up my detective’s cap yet. I will not rest until the remainder of the Bluey toys are returned back to my nieces!

It took seven months to find the missing gift card so maybe in seven months the Bluey toys turn up? Either way, I am on the case!

Have you found anything that has been missing for a while? Where was it? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

B-Day OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my B-Day OOTD! Johnny and I have been celebrating our birthaversary big time all month long and this lil look was worn to lunch at the Olive Garden with my family. It was the best gift! We still have beaucoup plans lined up in our roster and it is honestly kind of overwhelming lol. We went from never doing anything on the weekends to nonstop plans and I am exhausted! But, hey, the birthaversary is a monumental occasion so let the good times roll because when I can relax with a new season of my guilty pleasure show, it is going to be oh so sweet. 😀 Take a look at these yikes shots and let’s discuss:

Style, grace, poise

Your girl really knows how to stick the landing!

Perfecting my flamingo impression

Taking a minute to think about the Olive Garden. It’s never far from my mind!

When you think someone is waving at you but they weren’t

Preparing to speak some truth to Johnny

Straight up barrelling to my phone

Am I the only one who feels overwhelmed by streaming services? Lol, every single day there are a million brand new things. Some might be good, a majority is crap, and it is just a pain in the keister to figure out what to watch. I am one of those people that will spend a solid twenty minutes trying to find a show or documentary and then just end up turning on Superbad! For once, however, I know exactly what I am going to watch whenever I have time to spare. That’s right… A new season of America’s Sweethearts on Netflix just dropped and I am SO there for it! 😀

America’s Sweethearts is all about the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, the audition process, prepping for games, and all that good stuff. I remember when the first season came out vividly because I was sick and I watched it all in one day! I was hooked and you have no idea how happy I was for season two to be released – reality TV is my guilty pleasure and America’s Sweethearts serves on every level. Pretty ladies for your favorite bisexual, insane dancing, hardass coaches, drama, and sisterhood. What could be better?! Do I care about football? The hardest NO ever. Do I care deeply about the cheerleaders? You’re damn right! This new season is a bonus birthaversary gift and I cannot wait to revel in it. Go team!

A new season of a favorite show really is a treat and during my binge-a-thon of America’s Sweethearts, I plan on treating myself even more. I got a Taco Bell gift card for my birthday and am going to have a one person fiesta. Let those birthaversary good times roll on, baby!

What is one of your guilty pleasure shows? Have you watched America’s Sweethearts? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Birthday Partay OOTD Bloopers

Birthday Partay OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Birthday Partay OOTD! Johnny and I had a banner birthaversary week and the good times are going to keep rolling. We recently went to see AC/DC in Cleveland which was phenomenal and we have another concert on the horizon in the next few weeks: Outlaw Fest where Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan will be headlining! We had so many amazing concerts lined up during the pandemic that we had to forego and we are certainly making up for it this summer. Let’s take a look at some yikes shots and discuss a lil funny from my last nail appointment:

Oh mylanta am I looking GOOD

What invoked this reaction is unknown but I sure look thrilled

Always ready for my closeup

A sultry gaze just for you

I swear to high I’m not god

How to pose 101

Don’t mind me getting electrocuted

In my head, all of the adults who I interact with are my age. However, there are instances when it becomes glaringly obvious that that is, in fact, not accurate lol. Take my nail techs, for example. Both of my go to girls are at least five or six years younger than me and you could have knocked me over with a feather when I made that revelation. As per ushe, I forgot immediately until my last appointment when we were discussing summer concerts. I was telling my gals about mine and Johnny’s lineup and mentioned that we were seeing Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan in a few weeks. I kid you not both of them replied “who?” at the exact same time and my worldview was shattered.

As a forever young thirty-one year old, I kind of assumed that everyone knew of Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan. A movie about the latter just came out this past year! I rarely feel old but, in that moment, I felt ancient! Honestly, this concert is more for Johnny. I love me some Willie but do not get down with Bob Dylan in the slightest. So, I just tried to explain them the best as I could to my techs. My response was “Willie Nelson is a super old country artist and Bob Dylan is just folksy BS” lol. Despite my excellent description, it still didn’t ring any bells!

It was seriously the cutest thing and humored me so much because I find myself asking the same questions when they tell me about the musicians they love or concerts they are going to. Hey, we all learn something new every appointment! It’s never not going to be fun or funny to try and describe artists to each other that we have no idea about. I get to teach them about what’s old and they get to teach me about what’s hip (Omg do I sound old lol). It’s a beautiful win/win scenario and I can’t wait to fill them in on my old timers concert at my next appointment! ❤

This new generation is A-okay in my book and no matter what your age is, you can always ALWAYS learn something new!

What is your summer concert lineup? Who is a beloved artist that you can’t stand? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Cute & Comfy OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Cute & Comfy OOTD. This was a simple little look that I put together to host a dinner party at chez moi this past weekend. And, based on the outfit, you can see that it was anything but a fancy get together lol. However, after saying that, I do think it would be hilarious to host a fancy dress dinner party in our two bedroom apartment. Ball gowns and Taco Bell, perhaps? It’s a work in progress! While I workshop this idea, took a look at some of these yikes shots:

Party people in TimberTop say heyyyyyyyy

I have no idea what Johnny just said but it was clearly a cause for concern

Me pretending to be relaxed and casual

Can’t see the haters if your hand is in front of your face

Creeping up to cause some mischief

I’M SEXYYYYYYYY

I have no idea what Johnny just said but clearly it was hilarious lol

One of my biggest guilty pleasures has got to be reality TV and I am especially partial to the Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives and Farmer Wants A Wife lol. Are these shows pure crap? Yes. Are they entertaining as all get out? Absolutely! Johnny and I started watching Farmer Wants A Wife as a joke and it turns out the joke was on us because we got incredibly into it. We devoured the first season, waited on pins and needles for season two, devoured that, and just completed season three this weekend. What can I say, we just can’t get enough of these farmers who want wives!

Normally, Johnny and I wait for entire seasons to air on TV before watching them at our leisure on streaming services. With season three of Farmer Wants A Wife, we were watching it on regularly scheduled time and it was honestly kind of fun. Don’t get me wrong, I love to binge watch with the best of them. However, Farmer Fridays became something we would look forward to and we would settle into watch it as soon as the work week was over. I love that Johnny and I watch Farmer Wants A Wife together because it’s funny to us and I am mourning the end of this last season. I literally cannot wait for new seasons of both of my favorite reality TV guilty pleasures and more Farmer Fridays with my main squeeze. 😀

Reality TV is such a laugh lol, it’s exactly what I need when I want something mindless and fun and don’t even get me started on ALL the drama!

What is your favorite reality show? What is your guilty pleasure show? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Black & White OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Black & White OOTD! And as a friendly reminder, you can view even more from this look on my TikTok @lilred6794 !! Hey, you just gotta work in a shameless plug sometimes. 😀 Today we are going to take a look at some of the yikes shots that most definitely didn’t make the first cut. While I had a plethora of winning photos to pick from from this shoot, the bloopers were aplenty as well. Allow me to dazzle you lol:

With the shape of an L on her forehead…

A brief moment to take stock of my life

Dripping SASS

I’M SEXY!!!!!!

No idea where this funky lighting came from!

My best “come hither” stare

Lmaoo ta daaaaa!

Getting my Mick Jagger on

This Black & White OOTD was worn to play mini golf at Fun n’ Stuff and their two courses are awesome. One is pirate themed and the other is dinosaurs and they are the perfect amount of fun and challenging. I absolutely love mini golfing but it is safe to say that I am… not the best. The same thing happens Every. Single. Time. we have a mini golf outing: I start out STRONG. Like shockingly good – we’re talking twos and threes across the board. And I’ll tell you what, I am feeling good and no one can tell me NOTHING.

Then, somewhere along the way, my downfall happens and it is swift…

I don’t know what it is lol – maybe it’s me getting too cocky or maybe it’s just beginner’s luck but about halfway through, it’s like I forgot where I even am! Twos and threes turn into can’t making a putt to save my own life and before I know it, I’m racking up sixes on every hole. Going from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows makes the whole process even more frustrating and there is just no coming back from that. I am pleased to report, however, that I didn’t come in dead last during this outing with Johnny, our bestie Cliff, and my brother but THIRD! I genuinely couldn’t believe it once the two courses were tallied up so, despite the mini golf skills all but disappearing, who’s the real winner here?! 😀

Part crazy annoying but always fun – who doesn’t love mini golf? I can’t wait to hit the greens again to defend my third place title!

Are there any mini golf courses in your neck of the woods? What are they like? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Garden Party OOTD Bloopers

Hello everyone and welcome to the Blooper Reel from my Garden Party OOTD! Today we are going to take a look at the yikes shots that definitely didn’t make the first cut. In fact, this outfit didn’t even make the cut either because I changed into jeans and a hoodie immediately after these pictures were taken lol. This fit was worn prior to visiting Johnny’s parents for Easter and we both wanted to be comfy for the occasion. I’m so glad we did because I was in a full fledged food coma afterwards! Let’s get to it:

Always tryna crank that Soulja Boy

Who, me?

Looking like I’ve got a mouthful of lemon but STILL werking

Going any way the wind blows

Lol, what is even happening?

Which shows do you like to put on purely for fun? For me and Johnny, we enjoy watching and playing along to game shows. This isn’t a constant occurrence but it’s always a good time and gives us the chance to take a break from whatever true crime show we are binging. In fact, we recently swapped out Fear Thy Neighbor for The Floor because we weren’t aware that a new season just ended! The Floor is a game show that really humors us because it’s essentially just naming pictures. We call it “adult flashcards” lol. Regardless of the simple premise, we like that we truly can play along with the game, use minimal think work, and still get answers right.

It has been a while since the last season of The Floor and I honestly forgot how much fun it was to put it on after work. By the time we are settled and the TV is on, it is game time! Johnny and I took great pleasure in rooting on our favorites, laughing at all of the peanut gallery commentary, and witnessing the major upsets. And, of course, the thrill of yelling answers at the TV and crushing categories in our own right. We breezed through the entire season of The Floor and were genuinely sad when it was over. Thankfully, there is always Family Feud because The Floor inspired us to have a laugh after work, yell stuff at the TV, and see what sticks!

However Johnny and I spend our time after work is great, but those game show viewings just hit different! 😀

What is your favorite game show? Which game show would you like to compete on? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah
