Shorts and Sweet..

You know when you have one of those days where you just wanna throw on some jeans and a t-shirt and call it a day? Well I had a whole.. *counts days from last post* well, over 2 weeks of those days. Oops. The weather has been crap, and you know.. insert other excuses here. haha. Anyway. 

I don't think I've ever worn this top before, it's of course, another thrifted find. I really liked the pattern with the texture of the shorts. However, the shirt was a liiiittle too short and I had to keep tucking it in all night. Win some, lose some. I guess it's not a very festive outfit, but this is what I wore yesterday on Cinco de Mayo. Douglas and I went out to dinner with Mary and Andrew at a local Mexican restaurant, then we all came back and watched Due Date. Nothing spectacular, but it was a great night. :) Did any of do anything special last night?

This is my favorite area around where I live. That's the library right behind me, where Douglas and I spend a lot of time together, and then to my right are cute little shops and restaurants. With ridiculously nice apartments behind there, and above the shops. It's a neat place. So I got brave enough to recruit Douglas to be photographer for the day (thank you darling!) and shoot photos in public! Gasp!

However, I'm pretty awkward about it, and it definitely shows in my face. haha. Oh well. I'll get used to it the more he helps me out. Hopefully he'll be willing to, anyway. ;-) I don't feel like I was too much of a tyrant, though.

I'm super in love with my outfit today. I get so happy when that happens. The shorts were a recent purchase, bought online through Forever 21. I got a few other things with them that I can't wait to showcase, too. But I've been coveting the paper bag waist shorts I had seen on other girls, and I finally had to give in to the purchase. haha. My shoes are also BRAND NEW. Douglas had to go to Payless for work shoes, and I just so happened to know they had these there, I felt they perfected my look. So I splurged again and  got these and another pair of wedges. Ahh, shopping. :]
