Memorial Day Fun
worn on May 30th, 2011
Oh hey! Hope everyone had a fantastic Memorial Day weekend! We’ve been living in Boston for about 9 months now, and we’ve barely visited any of the historic sites, etc. Theres so much to see! So Boo and I spent Memorial Day at Minute Man National Park. We walked the Battle Road trail, had a little picnic, and had some fun with photos.
Told you we...

The One Where I Don't Look At The Camera
worn on May 28th, 2011
Apparently, The camera didn’t deserve eye contact this day. Just kidding…. I actually wasn’t feeling very well so I wasn’t so much in the mood to be taking these photos. But its all good.
I wore this little 70’s inspired outfit to go see The Hangover 2 with the Boo. And then lay on the couch the rest of the day. Speaking of that, we started...

Color Blocked
worn on May 27th, 2011
Date night! Boo and I went out to dinner, and we did a bit of walking to get there. So I tried to keep it light and summer-y because it was suuuuper warm out. I picked up both this tee and skirt the other day during my thrifting excursion. It seems I now collect brightly colored pencil skirts. I have now thrifted 3. I’m on a roll, people. On a roll.
And look-...

Another Pinspiration
worn on May 26th, 2011
You guys have seen this pin floating around on Pinterest, right? I really couldn’t wait any longer to give re-creating it a shot. Really, I don’t own similar things to everything in the outfit- only the chambray shirt and polka dot skirt. So I had to work with what I have. But I still super love it.
Remember how I said I had the evening to myself? Yeah, well...

Wedding Wednesday
I’m pretty sure all of my girls have gotten these by now, so I think its safe to share this. Nothing crazy, but I put together some quick bridesmaids cards for my sister and friends. I think they turned out kinda cute :)
I forgot to take the pictures before I wrote in them. Whoops.

Fall In Spring
worn on May 23rd, 2011
This is usually a fall skirt for me - probably because of the colors. But I saw it sitting in my closet and thought I’d give it a shot. Spring-ify it, if you will. Actually, its not much different than how i would wear it in fall. Just minus the tights. Haha, oh well. I tried.

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....

More About the Rain. Because What Else Is There To...
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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Swapped, Part Three
worn on May 3rd, 2011
This is the third and final item Kathryn sent me for our swap. Its actually a dress. But, as I quickly mentioned monday, I had an unfortunate lapse of judgment involving this dress and an iron. It still makes me upset to think about it, so we’ll just leave it at that.
But I’m still incredibly happy with the way this outfit came out. I mean, it makes just as...

Wedding Wednesday
Ok, its no secret. I loooooove Etsy. I can already spend hours browsing through all the amazing handmade and vintage goodies. But my newest obsession is the wedding category. And I’ve become fixated on this carnival/ circus theme. So I thought I would share some favorite Etsy carnival wedding items I’ve come across:

Swapped, Part Two
worn on May 2nd, 2011
This little number happens to be the second dress Kathryn of Kitsune-kun sent my way. So pretty, right? And I’m loving the subtle ombre effect going on. I don’t have much green in my closet, and I actually felt pretty spring-y wearing it. Like I was fitting in with all the new green grass and trees finally sprouting up everywhere. Oh! And look at that, I even...

Swapped, Part One
worn on April 30th, 2011
This week I will be swapping a few items with Kathryn of Kitsune-kun. First up - this adorable yellow dress! I could not wait to get my hands on this thing. When I first saw Kathryn wear it, I absolutely fell in love. Sunshine yellow! Tie dye! bows! Seriously, where can I get one of these babies?
Its a bit wrinkly. But after a horrible, horrible incident with one of...
