Outdoors

Cardigan & Dress - Francesca's, Shoes - Forever21, Bag - gifted (g-ma)

Excuse my short post, but I am still exhausted from this weekend.  I'm also covered in bruises, scratches and mosquito bites.  The outdoors do not like me.  But Tosh.0 is on and I'm more than halfway done with my second 30 for 30, so I am a pretty happy camper.  FYI I am never an actual happy camper, as I stated above, the outdoors do not like me.

I am on the hunt for new glasses.  My current glasses are from freshman year of high school and are covered in scratches, they actually make my vision worse.  I remember going to pick them up with my mom, while we listened to Good Vibrations.  At the time I had a HUGE crush on Mark Wahlberg, it all started with The Italian Job, got even hotter with those Calvin Klein ads and then sizzled out a bit with Planet of the Apes.  It has been 8 years since I picked out those Calvin Klein frames (yes, my teenage mind thought that was a meaningful connection) so I think it is finally time to try out something new.  I have been looking at different frames online and stumbled upon the Warby Parker website.  They have the prettiest frames with a vintage touch and just that little bit of nerdy charm.  The kind of glasses you would love to slip on just before diving into a new book.  I have 5 pair to test out these next couple of days, so if you have a favorite let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.

See Through

 

So I bought this dress one day (because the stars reminded me of Harry Potter) and didn't notice that it's completely see through.  Which actually works out well, because so is this skirt.  And let me tell you, if you add one see through item to another they become not so see through.  Lucky for me, the people in my department at work have sensitive eyes, so we keep the lights down.  Which means my not so see through lost it's so, meaning we are in the clear(haha, get it?).  Well, I was in the clear until I walked outside and the wind blew them both up.  Making them completely see through.  At least my underwear were solid.

On a Whim

Top - Ruche, Skirt - Old Navy, Shoes - Payless, Headband - Target

 

I ordered this shirt on a whim.  I have a crazy habit of online window shopping.  I peruse a few online boutiques on a regular basis, add everything and anything I like to my cart and then think about what monthly purchases I would have to give up in order to afford them.  It's usually that I would have to give up my rent to afford everything, so as a rational human being girl I think about it for about 1 hour and then come to the conclusion that now isn't the right time to buy the goods.  I also used this logic when deciding to get a moon roof in my new car, but for that I was only giving up my morning tea and muffin twice a week.  That I can handle.  Anyways back to the shirt.  So I bought it...and a few other things, even though it wasn't really my style.  And guess what, I love it.  So sometimes an impromptu online purchase pays off.  And sometimes it doesn't. 

Little Time

Tank & Sandals - Target, Shorts & Necklace - Forever21, Purse - gifted (g-ma/mom), Scarf - thrifted

Tonight is the finale of The Voice, so I have to cheer on Dia.  And stare starry eyed at Blake Shelton.  All while kicking Scott's butt in Monopoly Deal.  So much to do, so little time.

Dinner and a Movie

Cardigan, Tank & Belt - Forever21, Jeans - Gap, Clutch - gifted from g-ma

I have been trying to write this for about two hours now.  And I am still at a lost.  So hows about I just recap my night (in one sentence) and then give you two bonus photos.  Deal? DEAL! (wow, you guys are excited)  We went on a date, I ate ribs...they were messy and delish, we saw Bridesmaids, and I am now seriously contemplating getting my hair cut like Kristen Wiig's, I know this is a mistake, but I will probably do it anyways, and that's all I got.  I know lame, but here are some pictures that are the complete opposite of lame.

Scott is one lucky guy.  And I am one lucky girl, only 18 more days!

More Cupcakes

Dress - Francesca's, Belt & Bangles - H&M, Sandals - Target, Purse - thrifted

Yup, more cupcakes.  I'm on this new diet were you eat cupcakes for breakfast, mini cupcakes for an afternoon snack, and then cookies for dinner.  I tried it yesterday and I feel great today.  I think the key to happiness is to keep the sugar high going.  Lucky me, Scott didn't eat his cupcake yet. I'd feel bad about eating it, but he doesn't even try to keep it safe.  It's like when you go camping, you don't leave all your food sitting out, inviting all the little scavengers in.  You gotta tie it up in a tree, so at least they have to work for it.

This is like sending me an invitation to eat it.  One day he will learn to keep treats out of my reach, up high so I can't get to them.  That is also the day I will buy a step stool and some higher heels.
