Spring Revival.


Okay, so I guess it's not technically Spring, yet. But it does feel like it in Texas! So, I'm gonna say that March 1st counts. And guess what else March brought in? Me! I'm back to taking outfit photos and what nots. Finally.
It definitely feels good, I love this blog! And I've had it about a year now! I'm a terrible blog mother. Forgetting her birthday and all that. But it was back in February sometime. So, like in my own life when a birthday represents a new opportunity for me, so it shall be for this blog as well. I have so many ideas, and I'm really hoping that I'll be able to crack down on myself, and set some will power aside to make myself actually stick this out. I just get so ADD about things, and I want to jump around from one project to another, but I do love this, so I'm going to do my best and see where it can go. Anyway! Enough rambling...


It's obviously been awhile since I've been in front of a camera, so I decided to start off slow with a pretty simple outfit. Button up, skinny jeans, heels, a couple nice accessories, and there we go. :] I'll get back into the swing of things soon enough. I can feel it. 
I am also planning on ramping up the blog design and layout pretty soon. Hopefully. So! In conclusion, lots of changes, lots of great things to look forward to! 
Button up: Coldwater Creek, Thrifted ($3.50!)/Jeans: Hollister, Thrifted ($4.50!)/Shoes: Charles by Charles David, Thrifted ($1.00!)/Necklace and Belt: Also Thrifted! Really Cheap! 

I obviously have not been spending more money than I used to. Still just as cheap as ever. 
And that's the way I like it. Uh huh, uh huh.

Pearls and Plaid


This would have to be one of my favorite outfits. I think it has a little bit of grunge and sweet that mesh well together. But not tooo much sweet. hah.

If you read my first post, I briefly mentioned my best friend, Emiley. It was only briefly because I wasn't quite sure if we were still best friends or not. :(

But she called this morning! And we are! Just in case you were worried. haha.
My move to Texas has really put a rift in our relationship, and it really sucks, but I had to do what was right for me at the time. Although my plans have changed and I'm not moving back, I never intended to push that rift further apart, but that's what has happened unfortunately. However, I think we can start to close the gap again, it's just going to take some work, that I am ready and able to put in on my side as well now.


Anyway, I just thought I'd throw that in because it had been weighing on my mind. My very first table this morning at work were two old ladies who had been best friends for years and shared with me all of their great jokes and memories between them and each other's husbands. We laughed, and cried, and the lady on the right (her name was Mary) told me to never let go of my friendship. And I promised her I wouldn't.

Bahh. Sentiments! :]

Back to clothes. ahem.
Sequined cami-?/Blue long sleeved shirt- Outlaw from Ross/Plaid shirt- Loves Notes from Ross $7!/shorts- Abbey Dawn (yes.. Avril Lavigne's clothing line. don't laugh.) from Ross $5!/tights-WalMart/Shoes- TOMS/
Sunglasses- Target via lost and found at work. hah!/Necklace- Mom's


So yeah, I personally love the combination of the shorts, tights, the thumb holes in the sleeves, and then of course the plaid shirt (complete with pearl snap buttons!), and then the pearl necklace thrown on top to girl it up a little bit.

I also love the bright sunshine we've had all day!

And the enchilada pie that Jonathan's mom makes that he won't eat because there's tomatoes in it. haha. YUM!

Have a wonderful night!
