If you where a frame on my self this is what you would have seen on Monday night. Me sitting in my grandma chair, drinking my chamomile tea while gawking at my lovely new knickknacks. I'm sure some people would look at my little pink urn and ask who's ashs where in it (my mother is one of those people) but now it holds my change.

In other news I have successfully made fondant!

Ann Marie is going completely insane right now, So her close friend (me) has taken over for the time being!

Today we went on an adventure in the blistering heat- a whopping 98 degrees.

We traveled to the park just to goof off, but due to the innter photography freak in me, i knew we had to take hold of the great lighting when we had it.

So we rushed back home to put on something blog worthy.

We worked with a lot of lines and geometry in this mini shoot, and just had a blast.

It started to storm right as we got inside- it was a true race. We sprinted as it was drizzling.

nowhere to go

I was feeling fashionable a few mornings ago, with a visit to coblogger Ann Marie's house in the works for a few hours after these pictures were taken. But, to my disappointment, I was informed that yes, indeed, it was simply too hot to wear my sort-of sweater outside. Summer, I love you, but please take a hasty leave — autumn allows for so many more options!

Oh, and hopefully this affinity to peace signs will be gone soon…a friend of a friend said to me outright: "Your belt is tacky!" But hey, it's good to promote love for one another, right?

Sweater: Navy-grey dolman, H&M

Shorts: Pink 3.5 inches, Old Navy

Belt: Black with gold peace sign, Kohl's

Pearls: Vintage from my mommy

Peace sign necklace: Lion and Blue, Lakewood boutique

P.S. One quick footnote: Check out this super cute cardigan from ModCloth. I mostly love it because it's named after one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands — "Love Like a Sunset," Phoenix. You can always count on ModCloth for an adorable dosage of fantastic fashion.

the little black dress

I just love this outfit. I wasn't sure what I was going to wear these shoes with when I bought them at the thrift store but something about this outfit just worked. I sure you will be seeing more of this retired dance shoes, I love the height of the heel so comfortable and easy to walk in. Now all i wish for is a pair of oxfords and just a few more pieces to add to my wardrobe. Too bad that on my budget the highest I can get is Urban Outfitters on "last chance sale". I can only hope.

In other news I just cannot wait for the 4th of July weekend!

blue flower

I named this post "blue flower," just because I am wearing a blue tank top and a blouse with a flowered print. Who knew that blue flowers mean tranquility and peace? Similarly, I had a pretty calm, tranquil day.

This is my rabbit, Maybelline, he enjoyed the cool day outside with me.
