petals.


I'm so glad I finally got to wear this shirt. It was a bit of an "out of the comfort zone" purchase. I like the ruffles on the front but I wasnt sure how I felt about them covering the sleeves. I also really like this color combination with the navy.
Today wasnt wonderful, but I'm very much looking forward to the weekend.

I also decided to take a fun picture, LOOK at my hair:

hey soul sister


Thank God it is Friday.
I had full intentions to wear a sundress today. I have this dress I bought at Anthropologie last year (its actually a nightgown, but its too long and too cute to wear that way) that I've never worn and the weather has been so pretty and I wanted to wear it. But it was cloudy when I looked out my window his morning and I was surprised how cold it was when I got outside. I thought I was going to be hot with this sweater!

Theres not much to this outfit, but I really like the contrast of the light blue and coral. This sweater has had a lot of usage over the years and I appreciate that it goes with just about anything while still not quite being a neutral. Its just enough to stand out. I feel like everyone in the world now owns one of these dresses. But I think mines a little different because the bottom skirt part is denim. I love the shape of these dresses...very flattering for my body type.

Do you like the appearance of Big Red in this picture? Chris decided to take some artistic liberty and capture his car in this. We were waiting on some people, so I figured it would be a good time to hop out and take a picture for the day.

Did I mention Im happy its the weekend?

Glorious Spring!


Hey Spring! I'm so happy to see you! This is the first week back from Spring Break and the weather has been absolutely gorgeous (minus the small blip on Sunday when it snowed all day.) So, in honor of the nice weather today I did a few things. First, I wore shorts and sandals. Yay!

Chris and I took the trolley to Fondren. I LOVE Fondren. We had lunch at the Crazy Cat...it's new, small and was surprisingly good. We walked to the Orange Peel (quite possibly one of the coolest vintage stores ever). I didnt buy anyhing this time, but I'm definitely feeling digging day in my future. We went to Campbell's Bakery and I got THE best sugar cookie in the world and then we got a gift for our professor who is having our class over to her house this weekend. I took this picture in front of a home furnishings store. Did I mention I love Fondren?

I'm wearing the Banana Republic shirt and vest...again. But the shorts and sandals make it feel different, I think. I felt like I needed a fedora or something, but I couldnt pull that off. Today was also the first day in awhile that I wore my Africa bracelets (if you can see them...)

Summer is coming! :)

Coral.


I apologize for my two wee hiatus. I've been sick and so busy! I'll try to start posting more, but next week is spring break ad I'm going to the mountains. So, I'm wearing a lot of coral. I feel like I've been belting things a lot lately, but I thught it was necessary to break up the color a little bit.
