Ladylike

worn on May 20th, 2011

Sunshine! Warmness! Finally a nice evening. I was so excited to put on pretty clothes. Boo  and I wanted to take advantage of it so we headed into Boston for date night. I was so excited to put on pretty clothes!

We headed to our favorite spot for french onion soup (sooooo good) and then kinda decided on a whim to go see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. In Imax. On opening night. There were at least 4 Jack Sparrows in the theater with us, as well as numerous other pirates. It was pretty amusing.

P.S- this is my new favorite skirt. Its so flowy and silky and the color is awesome. I think I’m in love.

More About the Rain. Because What Else Is There To Talk About, Really.

worn on May 19th, 2011

I though I was catching a little break in the rain when I ran outside to take these pictures. But I was apparently imagining things, because it was coming down pretty good. 

I’m sick of complaining about the rain. It should go away now.

Blame It On The Rain

worn on May 16th, 2011

It has been raining a lot. Thats why I didn’t have an outfit post for you  yesterday (at least thats my excuse). When it rains, I instinctively resort to jeans and hoodies, and its not pretty. But I see in the forecast that its supposed to continue to rain for another 12 years. Or at least the rest of the week - but thats close to 12 years. So I guess I need to suck it up, put on some real clothes, and take some pictures. 

I had a lot of very silly photos from this shoot. Mainly because of this lollipop I found in my coat pocket. 

It was a strawberry shortcake Dum Dum. Because I know you were wondering.

Opinions and Decisions

Boo came home early from work, so we headed off to get some flowers for planting. Horray!

Soooo, I actually wear glasses on a regular basis. But I’ve become obsessed with my big, fake nerdy glasses. Only problem- I can’t see when I wear them. Now, you’ve all seen or heard about Warby Parker by now. They are the new go to for cheap prescription hipster glasses, and I’m totally jumping on board. I pretty much knew which ones I liked the best as soon as I tried them all on, but I’d like to know what you think! Please excuse the not-so-pretty picture. I was already in my pajamas.

So we have….

Everybody, Everywear: Floral

worn on May 9th, 2011

Its that time again - time for another EBEW. This time around was easy. There is definitely no lack of floral in my closet. The hard part wasn’t finding a floral item to wear, the hard part was picking which one to wear. So I figured it would be a good time to debut my Tucker for Target dress. I was a little late to the game with these GO International stuff. And when I got there the blogger Tucker dress (you know which one I’m talking about) was all sold out in my size. But I spotted this little number and I was equally as thrilled.

P.S - I think my obsession with my fake nerdy glasses is growing. Is it time to order my 5 trial pairs from Warby Parker for some real ones?

P.P.S - I ordered myself some “Kristine" Seychelles shoes. I will always think of her when I wear these :)

Over The Weekend

worn on May 7th, 2011

This is me trying to dress up slouchy jeans and a t-shirt. Is it working? 

I ended up wearing this to run a bunch of errands saturday. Boo got his hair cut, I picked up some stationary supplies, we grabbed lunch, got caught in the rain, and got some groceries. It felt like a simple, but dressy kind of day. 

P.S - this isn’t my house, but i’ve been taking pictures in front of it an awful lot lately. Is that creepy?

Aaaaaawkward

May 6th, 2011

These were the least awkward photos I could find out of the bunch. You see, I didn’t take into account just how many people would be on the path at that time of evening when I said “hey, lets take my photos on the bike path on the way to the train. I don’t care if a few people stare- we’ll save time.” Yeah…. a few people. When we started taking them I became very aware of how many people were not only walking towards me staring at me, but also walking up behind me. Half the pictures, if I didn’t have an awkward look on my face, was of me turning around to see how close people were to me. Haha, ok - lesson learned. Not a comfortable photo spot for me. 

Oh, and I finally got me some new nude pumps! yaaaaay. 

Oh, and P.S- since I won’t be posting tomorrow… happy mommy’s day Mommy!
