Gaslamp

Tonight my family and I went to the Gaslamp District down in San Diego to have dinner and say farewell to my brother-in-law who will be on a boat for the next month (he's in the Navy).

I didn't get a great shot of my outfit while I was down there, but I had a picture of the exact outfit from when I wore it before. That's why my hair's different in the first picture. That's not cheating right? I tried taking a picture after dinner, but I just feel so awkward and embarrassed having someone take multiple pictures of just me in a public setting. I feel like people are passing by thinking, "what is this girl doing? does she think she's a model or something?" Does anyone ever have a hard time taking your outfit pictures in public and/or in front of people? I wish I could get over it because I'd much rather have photos of when I'm out as opposed to the ones in my backyard before I go out. Well, this is my outfit nonetheless.

Words of Wisdom Wednesday

And the winner is...

The random winner of the Orient Watch Giveaway is... SAGE61!

Here's her joke: Did you hear about the skeleton that walked into the bar and ordered a beer.... and an apron?

I'll be honest, it totally goes over my head, but that's part of the reason I thought it was funny. 

So Sage, email me with your shipping info! Thank you everyone for posting your jokes, you honestly had me in stitches! 

Vintage Bridal Gowns

I've been becoming obsessed with wedding dresses lately. It might have to do with some stuff I have coming up in the near future (no, I'm not getting married) but I've decided I must become a wedding dress model-- they need women who are 5'4" right? =) I just see all these gorgeous dresses and think "I need to wear that--without it meaning I must commit my life to someone" Long story short, I came across the vintage bridal gallery on The Frock, and became absolutely smitten with these wedding dresses from eras past. I had to share.






























I don't think I could ever get married, just for the simple fact that I could never pick out just one dress. I want to wear so many different kinds: short tulle ones and long simple Grecian ones, and satin mermaid ones and long sleeve lace ones. They would all be so lovely to wear. Must stop drooling now.

It's the Weekend!

GO CRAZY!
This is what happens when I forget my take-5-shots-at-a-time self-timer is on. I sabotage all the pictures. hahaha

My Shoe Collection

I found a really good deal on a bookshelf at Big Lots the other day, and I thought it would be a perfect way to display my shoes. Well, some of them, at least: all my sandals, flats, tennis shoes (TOMS, Vans, etc.) are in my closet, but the pretty ones I like to keep out. Unfortunately, 5 shelves does not provide a sufficient amount of space for my near-100-pair collection. So I chose the prettiest of the bunch to be proudly displayed on the bookshelf. I love the way they look all lined up-- it makes me want to wear each of them more. I should try to plan an outfit around every single pair I have, hmm... I might be on to something here.
