Tuesday Blues

I've heard of Monday Blues, but I think I have the Tuesday Blues today. I just keep staring at my closet thinking that some fabulous outfit is going to jump out and bite me, but alas, I have nothing. And honestly, I am thinking that I should have saved those beautiful pleated plum pants for myself, it's one of those times where I almost hope no one buys them from Hint of Vintage :)


So here is my attempt at a modest, springy outfit. Bright colors were a must today because the sun is shining, it is a wonderful 70 something degrees, and I just feel like it, dang it.

I am pretty sure that Matt being taller than me, taking these pictures, is the result of them looking like I have stubby legs. Maybe I need him to sit on the ground and take them. Then the camera would be slanted upward, like I have my long mirror so that I can feel better about myself because the angle makes my legs look like twigs that reach my neck. 

Ah well, I have come to the conclusion that I am too crabby to continue writing, so for everyone's sake...see ya tomorrow :)

Thai and Jaws

Well, I had a fabulous Valentine's Day. Matt surprised me by getting a babysitter and taking me out to our favorite Thai restaurant. We even got crazy and got our favorite appetizer there. They are these amazing spring rolls, with an even more amazing sauce to dip them in. It was perfect. Then we came home and Matt let me pick the movie to snuggle to. I chose Jaws. I can only handle so much "mushy mushy" for one day, so I ended it with some bloody limbs. Did you know that Jaws was written based off of a true story about a rogue shark in the 50's in New Jersey? Matt and I watched a documentary on it (mmm, yes we are documentary lovers. Super senior of us), anyway, it was really good.

After dressing up yesterday (which I forgot to take a picture of, o'well), I decided a sweatshirt was in order today. So how did I make a sweatshirt work for daywear, without looking like pajamas? Easy, just added some wedges and a layer of shiny/pearly bracelets :)

Definitely not the only way to wear a sweatshirt without looking like pajamas, but it worked well for me today :) Now I am comfy, but still feel cute.
