Everybody, Everywear: Maxi

worn on April 12th, 2011

Its that time again - EBEW time. This time around we’re going with the maxi dress/ skirt. I had plenty to choose from, but I was pretty excited to break this one out. I got it awhile ago, but wanted to wait until I could wear it minus a cardigan. The back is so much fun, I wouldn’t want to cover it up!

Warm Weather and Creepers

worn on April 11th, 2011

You guys, it hit 70 degrees today- 70 degrees! I spent a lot of time outside… walking around the square, getting some Starboo (thats Boo talk for Starbucks), and making some money at Buffalo Exchange after cleaning out my closet. And then the rest of my afternoon was spent relaxing on our porch on our new patio set with my ipad. 

Thats where things got weird. 

I take a lot of pictures in semi-public places. But who would’ve thought the creepiest creepers would come around when I’m taking pictures on my own porch. Stopping to ask me what I’m taking pictures of, what kind of pictures I take of myself, how he can find my site, etc. Creeper.

For Boo

When we went to take my outfit photos yesterday, I had stolen the camera from Boo and snapped a few photos of him. When he saw my post, he looked at me with a sad puppy dog face and asked- “wheres my pictures?” Well here you go Boo… Your very own post. 

Look Ma, No Tights!

O.M.G today is such a gorgeous day. Finally, some warm weather! 

I have a love/hate relationship with the dress. I mean, its super duper cute. But when I wear it I always seem to have this problem with the buttons. That problem being that, sometimes with the slightest movement, they come undone. Thats right, without warning, I could be flashing everyone in the room. Since I’m wearing it tonight to a dinner at Boo’s Boss’s house, I figured a wardrobe malfunction would be incredibly inappropriate. So I was trying to figure out how else I could wear it, and I figured - why not wear it completely open? What do you think?

Back On Track

worn on April 7th, 2011

Phew. I took a few days off from outfit posts there, but hopefully I’m back on schedule! This was an outfit I meant to wear while I was home but never did. So I thought I would put it on for… a trip to the grocery store. I mean, you can never go wrong with leopard and red. No matter what the occasion. At least, thats my theory. 

As you can see I’m sporting a spiffy new item in these photos. My birthday is still two weeks away, but I’m already carrying my THEIT Bossi bag, and typing this from my new ipad. Mwahahaha. I have the best fiance and parents in the world. But yes! My THEIT bag! Isn’t it fancy? It was sitting on my doorstep when I got back from the airport Wednesday, and I couldn’t wait to tear the box open. Its so purdy! I love it. You can bet you’ll be seeing a lot more of it.

My Trip Home

I’ve been a bad little blogger. I had every intention to keep up with blogging while I was home. I took home everything I need to take my photos and post. But day after day went by and at the end of the trip - I had no outfit photos. My bad. We will back to regular scheduled programming tomorrow. But I did take a few random photos with my nifty new ipad that I thought I would share!

1. Little Nevy - my flower girl. We went to the mall with her and she insisted on riding every one of these rides. And then when she was done with them - she wanted to ride the escalator. Over and over and over. Kids. 

2. My kiki! She ignored me for the most part. As usual. 

3. My favorite place on earth. HSBC arena for the Sabres game. And yay! We won!

4. Seesters!

5. It rained. It snowed. Thats right- snowed. Hey Buffalo - its April. Just thought you should know.

6. Tim Horton’s Iced Capp. So yum. 

Wedding Wednesday- Polka Dots

Its no secret that I love me some polka dots. And it’ll be a safe bet that I will be sneaking some in to my wedding. Probably just in some details though. Some ideas? well of course…..

Polka Dot Pom by PomLove

Flower girl dress by Liitle Pink Hanger

Straws by Cupcake Social

There is also this polka dot dress on Modcloth that would make an adorable bridesmaids dress, but the site seems to not be working for me right now. Maybe I’ll sneak it in later. 

Happy Travels

worn on April 2nd, 2011

Greetings from good ol’ Chaffee, NY. I’m home for a few days visiting family and what not. I love Buffalo, I really do. But its snowing. SNOWING. Really Buffalo? Thats enough of that. But yeah, I love being home. Family, Tim Hortons, The Buffalo Sabres, and early presents from my parents (even though I’ll also be home for my birthday too) :) So far it has been splendid. 

This is what I wore for my travels Saturday morning. Its pretty simple. But it was early, it was cold, I wasn’t feeling so good, and lets face it - traveling alone isn’t that fun. Easy peasy was the way to go. 

Boo told me to “get excited. You’re going home and going to a Sabres game.” This is what he got out of me:

Today is friday, which means I should be doing an Etsy Favorites Friday. But to be honest, I don’t know how I feel about doing those posts. Weekly, at least. Don’t get me wrong - I love the amazingness that is Etsy. And I have lots of favorites that I could share. I’ll probably do random ones here and there, just not regularly. I gave it a shot, and I wasn’t feeling it. So instead - I give you an outfit post. 

Continuing my love for Pinterest, yesterday morning I came across this image re-pinned by Suze.  I fell in love with the proportions - short sweater over long shirt and wide leg pants. A few hours later, I was re-creating it. In my version, the shirt maaaaay be just a bit too long. But I think I like it. Yeah - I like it.

My Favorite Colors

worn on March 27th, 2011

I’ve really been loving red lately. I didn’t have a whole lot in my wardrobe, but I seem to have acquired quite a bit these last few weeks. New favorite color? seems like it. It might have something to do with my wedding planning. I’m going with a lot of reds and yellows. And some blue. And bows and stripes. So basically what I’m wearing is completely reflective of my wedding style haha. In a casual, weekend-wear kinda way, of course. I didn’t realize that. How silly.
