Here if your outfit post

Today Brian and I went to iHop (soo nommy!) and I got fabric (and an amazing sewing basket!) from JoAnns to make a pouch for my instax! The dress I am wearing I got from Modcloth's Cabin Fever sale and it's so cute. I just hate how the sleeves are slightly poufy so they buldge through my cardgian. Ah well. Anyways here it is, an outfit post! P.S. It was super windy today, and slightly chilly, I can not wait for nice weather to take good outfit pictures in. Not 100% happy with these but it's something!

Hope everyone has/had a great weekend :)

Happy Birthday, my love.

Happy Birthday Brian!

























This is our third October together, and every year it's more exciting. I can't imagine what it's going to be like 50 years from now. I love you more than anything.

Falling Out of Trees

I was completely serious when I said I was ready to start blogging again! I know that I took a bit of time off and you're probably wondering what's been going on and what I've been up to, but truly it isn't that interesting! Ha, maybe I'll save that for another post to get you all up to date! Today there is an outfit post! Brian and I went apple picking yesterday, and it was so so so fun. I love taste testing all the different apples with him. We plan on using our awesome baking skills to create as many apple flavored things as possible (first on the list is a caramalized apple cake yumyum!!)

We also got pumpkins, apple cider and a few other yummy things. We also made creme brulees yesterday! (It was a busy day!) I think carmelizing the sugar with a kitchen torch was the epitome of awesome baking in action!



Shirt- Target ; Skirt- UO ; Belt & Necklace- Charlotte Russe ; Boots- Zigi Soho



































I felt slightly crazy mixing patterns, since I never usually do it. Something about plaid makes me not care so much as I love it with pretty much anything. The only bad part about this outfit was when the wind picked up and my skirt did too! Though it made Brian and I laugh really hard.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Hi guys! I really hope you notice the difference in my photos today... I seriously took so much extra effort to try to get them the best quality I could- because to be honest for a while I didn't know what I was doing when it came to putting up pictures! Haha. I hope all that work wasn't in vain!





Dress & Belt- Charlotte Russe ; Tights & Shoes- Kohls







Brian and I went to Lafyette Village again today, for these pictures, a little yummy food and some good ole' antiquing. I was excited to finally wear this dress, since it's one of my favorites, and I wear it a lot actually although you have never seen it here!














This picture is for Amanda, who I think can understand/laugh at this one!








I really have to thank all of you too for how sweet you are. Really. Your comments put such a huge smile on my face, you're so overly nice too me. I really love every one of you!






Quick post today since My mom, brother, Brian and I are going to see Dinner for Schmucks soon. I hope it's as hilarious as Steve Carrell leads it on to be!

The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot- Brand New

Millstone

Hi everyone! I've been pretty absent from here this week, since for the most part my week wasn't the best, but Brian sure made up for it with our activities today! (And his overall sweetness!)

Tuesday Brian and I hung out all day by my pool for the first time all summer. (I know it's almost August...) Since we are both really really fair skinned, even though we were both wearing sunblock- we burnt really bad. I had work that night and it was the most miserable thing ever. With every movement I felt my bra straps ripping and burning my skin.

Wednesday morning I had work again. Basically went home to sleep then came right back. Not only was I still very painfully burnt, I had an awful day at work. I have been there for 3 years and I still get yelled at and reprimanded for every little thing. I know it's not just me and it happens to everyone there, but for some reason Wednesday it really got to me and when Brian came to pick me up I just started bawling my eyes out. When I got home I had a cat scarf and my bag from ShopDixi.com I had been waiting a month for waiting by my garage. That cheered me up a tiny bit. Brian and I then watched Pretty Little Liars and I had some ice cream on a warm cookie. Eventually by the end of the night I was feeling much much better thanks to Brian's utter baby-ing of me. (He's sooo sweet to me when I'm feeling upset, not that he isn't normally so sweet!) Thursday Brian played guitar with his friend, and I didn't see him until 7 and then I worked on my quilt the rest of the night.


But today was our day to spend together, antiquing and going to a cafe!




Dress- Kohls ; Tights- Bakers ; Oxfords- Urban Outfitters ; Scarf- Modcloth ; Bag- Shopdixi.com ; Necklace- Made by me






I had so much fun today with Brian! We went to a cafe called The Gristmill and had frozen chocolate chais with our meals. I had a grilled chicken panini with cheddar jack cheese and lime dressing on whole wheat. (It was amazing!) We then walked to a few antique stores close by and I found an owl necklace, really nice iron bird trivet, and an amazing old birdcage music box. (You have to see it to know what I mean!) We also scored an awesome deal at Marshalls and got a $25 beautiful bowl set for my cat for only $12.99 because of an error with their price tags. Yes!!






I think I nearly died when I saw this scarf on Modcloth. The first thing I thought is "No way did they mix classy floral with whimsical black cats." But oh they did. Brian being the sweetheart he is ordered me this right away!





Yay for sunburn and peeling noses!


So the Alexa bag that has been topping everyones wishlist was also topping mine, though there is NO WAY I would ever ever be able to afford one. I have been trying so hard (you have no idea!) to find something similar for much cheaper elsewhere, and when I found this bag on Shopdixi.com for only $50 I ordered it straight away. Even my mom says how similar they look!








Lastly these oxfords are ones I have been wanting for over a year. My mom decided to order them for me since she was so proud of me getting on the Deans List in college. Yay for being studious!! Though they are so fall-eqsue (as is my whole outfit), I couldn't wait to wear them. I think everyone will understand when I say I am dying to wear fall attire already!

It's Cold in the Shade. Let's Move to the Sun...

Firstly, a quick apology. Photobucket obviously can not handle the size of my blog (which isn't even that big!) But yet until August some of my images may be crappy blue boxes. Re-uploading them elsewhere and having to repost them all would be tedious and not worth it, so please bare with me as my blog goes through it's awkward phase heehee.


I am sooo excited to share these images (and outfit!) with you today since my dad found my Paint Shop Pro disc! My parents have been redoing my office downstairs and my dad finally found my disc he lost a while ago, so I could upload it onto my new computer (Yayy!!) That and the fact that we got to take these pictures in a beautiful field of sunflowers. Though it looks like we were so secluded, it's been quite the hotspot for pictures lately (and you'll see why!)





Dress- H&M ; Belt & Necklace- Mom's ; Clogs- DSW











After taking these pictures today, Brian and I went to this really adorable little candy store called "Nutty about Sweets" Heehee. It was awesome. There were those containers all along the walls that pour out all different sorts of neat candies! (Wish I brought my camera in!) We got yogurt and chocolate covered raisins, chocolate covered banana chips, and assortment of yummy gummy sharks and fruits!




I was so excited when I found this dress, since my mom had given me a dress of hers to return and let me keep the money to get a dress for myself. I found this at H&M and there was only one left, and I was immediately drawn to how simple yet pretty it was. I can only dream of how I can wear this in every season! (and it has sleeveeesss!)








These are my new clogs! Yay I'm finally buying more and more new shoes. I am so excited about these since they are stylish but not way too high of a heel. For some reason I just feel weird wearing heels everyday.




Brian told me I should put the caption "If only they had feathers.." under here and I said "No way, that's super corny!" But alas I've posted it anyway since he is toooo cute (:





Also according to Random.org, the winner of my giveaway is...

#9 Bee!!

Congratulations! I'll be emailing you asap!
