Plum Pleasant

This is a more chill work outfit. For sure comfy. Plum pleasant. Maybe kinda boring, but...I like it. That is something I think that's very important about clothes. You want to be comfy. I wore an outfit the other day and it wouldn't stay where I wanted it to. It was so uncomfortable constantly fixing my belt, tucking my shirt in. I couldn't wait to get home to get out of it. Next day I wore this. No twitching, no tugging, no pulling. And warm enough for the chill air conditioning. Winner, in my opinion.

Oh hey, there's my wedding and engagement ring

Skirt: Thrifted

Shirt: American Eagle

Summer Reigns

This was a great day. These pictures were actually taken a couple weeks ago on one of the first really hot days of the summer. We walked down to the river and since the river is low right now we could walk along the banks, our toes trailing in the water. It was nice, chill, just so very summer. 

Shirt: Thrifted

Shorts: American Eagle

Belt: Target

Shoes: Payless

Earrings: Church Bazaar

You know, sometimes that is what you need, a little break from school, some warm weather to get your head screwed back on straight when you lose sight of what you wanted. Now, if only that warm weather would stick around.

I Dare it to Rain

It's Saturday and I'm at work. A customer is complaining that it's her day off and it's raining. She leaves and I'm helping another customer. I hand him everything he requests but he's still looking at me and I wonder if I forgot something. He blurts out "you can still have a nice weekend when its raining." Boom. He just looked so offended or upset. And I agree. Rain shouldn't stop you. Just...live. I love going out when the weather is less than stellar. It's so exciting. Except the wind. I very much dislike the wind. It pushes you around. But even then just escape to the woods where the trees protect you.

I'm on a Boat

I'm on a boat. I'm on a boat. I think of SNL and Andy Samberg's song whenever I'm on a boat. It's just so catchy.


Anyway, here is a few pictures from our Memorial weekend away. Check out my simple "I'm on a boat"/American red, white and blue outfit. Red pants make anything more interesting, I think, especially nautical blue and white strips. 

See, I'm actually on a boat.

Shirt: Target

Tank: Not sure, actually

Pants: Younkers

Shoes: Payless

The turtle shell we found, sans turtle.

Yeah, there's no ball there, I was practicing my swing, plus my dog kept running up and stealing my golf balls. Also, good shot of my "I'm on a boat" shoes.

The turtle we found in the front yard and saved before he became like the shell we found earlier.

The lake after those crazy thunderstorms this past weekend. Crazy weather to drive through. We were driving across the U.P. on Memorial Day, the rain was so heavy it was hard to see and the lightning kept cracking. Then we would hit fog so thick the cars in front of me would disappear. But I was glad it was raining, especially in the Seney stretch. 


I love short weeks! It's already Thursday. Yippee! Happy Thursday all.

Sisters in Floral

Last week it was my little sister's graduation so I decided to do a sisters' outfit post. If you're facebook friends with my little sister you might have already seen some of these pics as she is faster at posting than I am, apparently. 

The middle one is graduating! I tried getting her to wear her grad cap, but she wouldn't. Boo.

Look how cute we are.  

Or nerdy. I love the look on my sister's faces.

Sister's need to get together more often. Seriously. 

I love the pairing of this skirt with just a simple white t-shirt. White t-shirts are chill. I wish I had another one that was a bit looser, with a finer texture. Just something I will have to search for.

I want a pink skirt. I am borrowing that.

I liked her pairing of a simple skirt with floral flats. 

My outfit:

Skirt: Thrifted

Shirt: Forever 21

Belt: Target

Necklace: Vintage

Sunnies: Target

Earrings: 80's awesomeness

I have alot more to share this week: snapper turtles, a boating outfit...okay, that's all I can think of right now, but there's more. I promise.

Oh yeah, here she is, finally in a cap and gown.
