new stuff

i've been in DC for the weekend and had my first adventure to the Salvation Army today! meaning.. i have a good amount of some amazing and new excellent pieces and i can't wait to show them.

soon to start posting with them :)

should have been born in the 40's...

my sisters and i had a photo shoot on the back porch today. (minus our little sister, who we miss dearly). it was so great. we drank mimosas and ate BLT's, played cards and ate fudge. it was a beautiful sunny day and perfect temperature. we couldn't have spent a better afternoon together!

anxiously awaiting

I am so anxiously awaiting for these boots to hit topshop.com. i basically check the site for them everyday. (i probably should not have admit that.) they are everything i could ever want in a boot. theyve got the combat doc martin look to them but they are possibly the highest shoes i hope to own for everyday wear.

they are Emma Cook for Topshop and 150 pounds. a small fortune. yes, i will get a job...

maxi dress

i went out shopping at target today, only to run into one of my friends! but anyways, i'm always so shocked at how many great things they have for cheap. i must have tried on at least 10 pieces of clothing (and i NEVER try on clothes.) i found great basics for my fall wardrobe. after purchasing however, i noticed that every single piece i bought was black, minus a bright white and red marc-jacobs-like richard chai for target tank (which will be great with some high waisted shorts). i don't mind everything being black though, i really really like black lately. plus! i got a new ring, which is really pretty. i'll have to show later.

this is my black maxi dress i got at target for $20. its jersey, so possibly the most comfortable material, and maxi dresses are already twice as comfy already. i shall never take it off!

these photos are also the debut of my new nine west bag. my sisters bought it for me because it looks almost exactly like the miu miu tote i've been lusting after for weeks. i've decided to keep it and i think it works well with my outfits

sunglasses: chanel 5018

maxi dress: target

scarf: episode (vintage)

bag: nine west

Newport, RI

today i had a fun adventure with Liz. we traveled up to Newport on dinner plans and a movie. ended up with lots of great stories....

first, stop at dunkin donuts, the lady gave me tea with no teabag (which was simply hot water, milk, and sugar)

second, we met an elvis creeper at the fudge shop. and liz tormented him to make the situation more awkward.

third, we sat next to these old men at dinner. and they, as liz said, chatted us up.

it was a great adventure. lifes always interesting with liz around.

wore my green tartan skirt with the gold zipper. acne shirt, sheer tights, and mom's wedding shoes.

and i've just realized that the first photo was taken exactly where my parents were married. these shoes have returned to their origin!

skirt: self made

tee: Acne jeans

bag: chanel

shoes: mom's
