A moment of clarity.


"I don't believe in email. I'm an old-fashioned girl. I prefer calling and hanging up." - Carrie Bradshaw


So first things first. Guess who's camera has been dead for TWO weeks?! Yep, mine. And guess who's too lazy to charge it. Yep, me.
Worst. Blogger. Ever.
Isn't that quote just the cutest? It makes me laugh, because I'm kind of getting tired of all the technology. Its hard trying to keep up!
I have been pretty obsessed with watching Sex and the City on late night television lately. I'm in love with Carrie Bradshaw's life. The writing. The city life. The WARDROBE! (!!!!)

I mean, look at this closet!! Can't help but love a stylish, independent women.
So in the weirdest way, Carrie Bradshaw has inspired me to do something I didn't think I could do. Delete over half my facebook "friends". Now it may seem silly, but I feel so liberated. Why did I feel the need to have so many "friends"? A lot of these people, and I mean A LOT of them are people I went to high school with. Here's the thing. I didn't like the majority of these people while I was in school, so why would I want them to see how I live my life? These people were stuck up, mean, horrible, and so on--to so many people. People that were different. People that didn't play follow the leader. People that weren't wealthy. People that didn't have the right "last name". I'm sorry for such a rant on a stupid subject, but trust me when I say that it made me feel so liberating. I only want positive, caring, GENUINE people in my life. So, good bye to all of them. :)

Its been awhile

So I have been extremely busy that last week and a half working. outside. in the heat. So this is why I haven't posted a new entry. (If anyone has even noticed haha).
It's kind of been a hard day for me. My boss passed away a few days ago. He was a wonderful man, and today was is wake. It was hard. very hard. I've been trying to keep my chin up, so here are a few things that make me happy.

1. love the color of this scarf!

2. dying to add this album to my record collection!

3. Falling asleep to my favorite show.

4. Eating doughnuts. Sooo bad. But soooo good.

5. And of course, sweedish hasbeens. Maybe one day I will own a pair? :)

Quote of the week

"To be nobody-but-yourself -- in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else -- means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."


I saw this via little chief honeybee ...and loved it!

Lusting over:

So I am currently dying over this pair of Swedish Hasbeens.
I want these. I NEED these.
ughh..I don't think my feet will be sporting them anytime soon though.
These bad boys are going to set me back $250 big ones.
Le sigh...another day I suppose?

Red, White, and Blue


Hope everyone had a great fourth of July!
I decided to just have a nice lazy day, since it was my only day off all week.
But I did celebrate with all things red, white, and blue!
I had some yummy food.
Made red, white, and blue cupcakes.
Wore my favorite blue and white striped top.
And last but  not least, watched some fireworks!


p.s. has anyone else noticed that the art of "firework photography" is harder than it looks??
