a nice day for the zoo

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

all of us went to the zoo a few weeks ago, it was one of the last things we wanted to do as a family before we say goodbye to jax and she flies back to australia. she’s leaving in less than a week and there are definitely bittersweet feelings. so sad to say goodbye, but so excited for her at the same time. her boyfriend bj is such a great guy and they’re perfect together. it may be hard for everyone to let her go, but i definitely think we feel better knowing she’ll be taken care of and in good hands :)

anyway, the zoo!

mickey mouse club

i find it sort of ironic that i’ve been blogging about spring, pastels, lace and breezy clothes yet here i am, in mostly black! anyway, this was an outfit i was sort of lazy with and threw together for work. it was one of those “i don’t know what to wear” days. it seems like my on-the-go outfit these days is something with tights+denim shorts. i might be getting too comfortable with it, haha. :)

details:

glittery mickey mouse tee: f21 (purchased a long time ago) denim shorts: handed down, brogues: thrifted

so just letting you all know that this blog will be going through some changes in the future..i’m not sure how near in the future, but i’d like to change the direction that this blog is going, if that makes sense. i’ll still be posting outfits, however i’m going to begin posting more pictures and words that have more to do with jimmy and i and our life together. things are sort of at a pause for us right now, but as soon as life picks up for us again, i’ll be posting it here first! our one year wedding anniversary is coming up soon and i’m so excited! wow where did the time go? i have no idea what we are doing, but apparently he’s getting things figured out. i cannot wait :)

have a good week everyone!

Vogue Australia April 2010


LOVE her makeup.

These photos are making me excited for the warmer weather ahead and I honestly thought I’d never say that (I’m all about winter and bundling up) but I definitely think that if I had dresses that pretty, I’d be flaunting them all summer. There is something so effortless and simple about the dresses, her hair, and makeup that is appealing to me. I have some experience with photography as well so naturally I’m drawn to the editing and style of the photos too. My favorite pieces are the light blue dress, the first brown top and the last brown dress.

Do you have certain items of clothing you can’t wait to buy/bring out of your closet for Spring/Summer? What are they?

Love you all,
Jen

longing for spring

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

So the other day it was quite warm and beautiful out and I figured I’d make use of it. I did something that I haven’t done in a few months- I bared my legs! I’ve been living in tights since before the holidays, (and don’t get me wrong, I love my tights and will probably continue to keep wearing them until it is absolutely necessary to store them) so it was kinda nice to have a day off from them. Anyway, this outfit and that day had me really pumped on when Spring arrives…not only for the warmer weather but also because I am LOVING all the lace and floral I’ve been seeing lately. I cannot wait to bring out my small collection of floral and lace dresses, blouses, and skirts!

dark heather grey cardigan, pale pink lace shirt, high waisted denim shorts, and brown flat brogues.

have a great week, friends!
