The 2nd Best Day of My Life

So, as you know, I stumbled upon the White Collar set the other day. 

And that was pretty awesome by itself.

But what you don’t know is, mere MINUTES before I was graced with the presence of Matt Bomer, I stumbled upon Tim Gunn.

AGAIN!

You may remember that I saw Tim (we are on a first name basis now, bee tee dub) walking down Broadway a while back.

Well, you guys, I grew balls over night cuz this time I talked to him.

(pause for dramatic effect)

This is how it all went down:

(Hubs and I are walking down 91st street)

Me: OMG. That’s Tim Gunn

Hubs: How can you tell? He’s not facing us.

Me: I’ve seen him from behind before!  I’d know Tim Gunn a mile away. (I snap another ‘from behind’ pic)

Hubs: Well, he’s just standing there, go and ask him for a picture.

Me: Are you batshit crazy? He has grocery bags!  I don’t want to bug him.

Hubs: If you don’t ask him I will.

Me: *takes deep breath, tries not to pass out, and says in the meekest, little kid voice ever*: Excuse me, Mr. Gunn?

Tim (freaking) Gunn: Yes?

Me: Hi. Um. Can I please take a picture with you?

Tim: Of course!  What’s your name?

Me: *have no earthly idea cuz I died, the end*

 

This is my “O…M…G…” smile.
Not many people get to see this smile cuz its all teeth and gums.
gross.
but seriously, how could I NOT freak my freak?
IT’S TIM (freaking) GUNN!
You guys he was so nice.
I told him all about my obsession with Project Runway. Like that I’ve seen every episode, except for the All Stars season (because no Tim and Heidi means Raychie no watchie)
And he said no one usually recognizes him when he’s wearing jeans.
Not a stalker fan like me Mr. Gunn.  I know Tim Gunn when I see him, suit or no suit.
So after I came down from my cloud, I took some outfit pics.
The Deets:
Dress: Forever 21
Necklace: Thrifted, The Village Scandal
Sunglasses: Borrowed from Husband
Let me recap this outfit for you: It cost a TOTAL of $11.
I happen to think its pretty cute and I love the combo of the yellow and teal.
But the fact remains…
I met Tim Gunn in an outfit that costs less than a martini.
At least I wasn’t in a sweatshirt and ratty jeans like I was last time I saw him 🙂
P.S. In regards to the title of this post: I would have said that this was the best day of my life (I met Tim Gunn AND saw Matt Bomer up close and personal within a matter of moments) but I love my Hubs and the day I married him is still tops.
P.P.S However, if I would have run into Mark Wahlberg on this same day, my wedding day would have most def been bumped to the #2 spot. (sorry H)
