2:48 A.M.

This is the time that I woke up this morning. Unable to fall asleep. Needless to say, it is going to be a long day. And I will be honest, Marcy. I feel really icky. Something is not right, and I don't know what it is, which means I don't know how to fix it, which means that I am going to keep fretting, assuming the worst, curling up in a ball, you know, all the usual crap. HELP ME! I need you in my life!

ehem. Anyways, so one of my solutions for this was to take a really long, hot shower. Totally worked. Then I got cute. That worked too, kinda.
Why is everyone getting married.

Oh yeah. found a tutorial for homemade beach waves. 1 cup water, 1 tbsp. coconut oil, 1 teaspoon sea salt, 1 teaspoon hair gel, shake it all up, spray generously...WHABAM!

My New Favorite

And I found the perfect chambray! After...like...seven different stores, I FINALLY braved the mall. Which I honestly hate doing with the small amount of money that I had alotted myself for this endeaver. But by the time I walked into Pacsun, I was desperate. One of the most expensive articles of clothing that I have bought in a while, $40. Don't tell anyone. But yeah, it made me happy. And remember sophemore year when colored skinnies were so in, just not like they are now? And I had a bunch, and then I got rid of almost all of them? Well I had kept my royal blue skinnies and my ORANGE SKINNIES.
And now my orange skinnies are back in. And they go perfectly with my chambray and fringe satchel. Needless to say...it was one of those days where I was glad I was with my lover. We walked outside and it was raining, so we had to attack each other. Of course, I mean, come on. How could we not? Look at me!

...Just kidding ;)

SO this was my outfit from Monday. And I decided Saturday night that I needed to get a chambray. Totally necessary, I KNOW. That's coming. You're wondering why I'm telling you this story. This outfit, the cream skinnies and navy dolman and bedazzled oxfords (they need to retire soon...getting too stretched out. Tear.), these will always remind me of my search for the perfect chambray.

Mint SKINNIES

Remember when we were at Disneyland, and we were on that train at the end of the day, just so that we could sit down, and we got to the part of the tour where there were fake animals behind a glass wall, and everyone in our group was excited about these fake animals except for me? And you saw bunnies. And you yelled BUNNIES like...I don't even know how to describe it. In the same tone of voice as if you were to say "I'm gonna KILL YOU!"
...at that point in my vacation, I was not very happy. And then you yelled BUNNIES and I smiled and knew I would make it through the evening with strangling someone. When you read my post title, I want you to say it out loud in your BUNNIES tone.
Do it ;)

Anyways...just realized that I haven't posted an ensemble with my foxy minty skinnies! Had this Saturday off work, so I went thrifting with my mom, and this is what I wore. And I LOVED IT.

Dressing Up for ME

So...I DID see my Squoosh today, but I didn't know that when I was getting ready. I woke up this morning, and wanted to dress up, just to do it. Just to feel pretty. Not to impress anyone or show anyone up or anything like that, I just wanted to. And I was at the Institute Building, and one of the teachers made a comment about how I must be going somewhere becuase I was so dolled up.
Let's be honest, Marcy. I don't want to fall apart when Steve leaves. I'm practicing, getting dressed up to paint the town red just for ME. Is that dumb?

-Black/ White Striped 3/4 Sleeve Top (Ross)
