Your scandalous is showing
Such a busy week (again). Haven't had my laptop for 168 hours (more or less) because my mother took it with her to California while on vacay. I managed to drop my cell phone in the lake. So that was fun. Anyway my pics: the cute flowers they had set up at the restaurant in Byerly's, my sisters supercute cowgirl boot outfit, the nifty serving-tin sort of thing that I use for miscellaneous items, a stack of books I have yet to read this summer (P.S. I am reading Howl's Moving Castle right now and it is fabulous. Great for magic-lovers such as myself:)), and my maxi outfit which consists of: a maxi I purchased at H&M a while back, a pair of boots I picked up at Famous Footwear that I literally live in during the winter months, and a pair of fabulous sunglasses my mother brought back for me from her trip. I think that some people have a fear of maxis because it is said that they make you look short or idk I think they just intimidate people.I am short and I personally do not see any problem with them. Just get them tailored to your height or a teeny bit longer. Or do it yourself. My obsession with maxi dresses will never die. They are so simple and manageable and comfortable. Also sunglasses are marvelous-they add instant glam to the person donning them. Weather this said person be in jeans and a t-shirt, or pumps and a cocktail dress. They add instant edge and mystery to a look. Glasses are like jewelry for your face. Love it.

Don't get too excited...
Wow sorry for my absence..I do believe that I am getting progressively lazier and lazier. I have holed myself up in my cave for the past week or so with lots of junk food and books. Read A Time for Dancing by Davida Wills Herwin, Monsoon Summer by Mitali Perkins, half of Inkspell by Cornelia Funke, part of The Host by Stephenie Meyer, and I am now in the midst of Emma by Jane Austen. All of the above I recommend. A time for dancing left me crying for hours though- you have been warned. Still an amazing read. Anyway the above pics are things that have been on my mind (including an outfit I threw together last minute because I felt guilty about not posting in a while). So from top to bottom: a color combo I absolutely adore in a mug of milk, peaches in vanilla froyo (yummm), my colorful closet, the view from my kitchen window, the outfit I threw together (dress H&M, shoes Forever 21). I love the dress from H&M because it is so easy to slip on when in a hurry with the advantage of still looking cute even though I just rushed out the door. The shoes are my go-to because they are the only heels I can successfully walk in without completely making a fool of myself. I will blog about my fear of heels eventually. The song of the day: Strong Enough by Sheryl Crow.

P.S. Sorry I am so unattractive in these pics. My mom isn't so good with the camera and it's just an ugly day for me. Hope I am forgiven.

The Curent
Been listening to the radio a lot lately. Mostly The Current (it is so deliciously alternative). This song is like my fave at the moment. Also, sorry I lied about my juicy post about crushes. Realized it would be a ton of work...Anyhoo summer school is done this Thursday!!! Then I immediately start drivers ed next week. It is my summer of work:/
Other things I have been up to:
Including purple lipstick, my sisters cupcakes, my sisters dress, my kitties, a trip to Marketfest and a walk to White Bear Lake, my dogs footprints on our dock, and my grandmothers superdelicioso beef soup.

P.S. Next post=clothing. Maybe.
