updates: new beginnings!

Oh my! It has been a month, so sorry! I moved to Atlanta, landed two jobs, misplaced my camera's usb cable for a few weeks, in short, my life has been welcomed chaos!

I received new eyeglasses for my birthday (it was yesterday!)

eyeglasses: Warby Parker




















































I made extra large Oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies a few weeks ago for my fantasy baseball league's draft.
Top: Comme des Garcons Play, velvet skirt: UO


























I wore this to a friend's birthday celebrations a few weeks ago.
top: Russian sailor shirt from a random shop on 23rd St in Chelsea, shorts: J.Crew


























And finally, last week after an interview I dropped into J.Crew and picked up these shorts, and started referring to them as my "birthday shorts" though I didn't wear them yesterday (it was too cold.)

Weekend Prints

I've been Atlanta this weekend, for what feels like the millionth time this year or that I basically live here. I had an interview on Friday (which I believe I aced) and I have moved on to the next step in that company's hiring process. Hooray! But the weather this weekend has been anything but "hooray!" it's been rainy, windy and cold. The genius in me packed dresses, but I have stayed warmed.

Saturday:
Dress: goodwill (shortened by me) Tights: Nicole Miller
I've had this dress for about 2 years now and this is the first time I wore it. The ladies at Sephora at Lenox Square loved it. I surprisingly did not mind the 80's polyester material either.  



























Sunday:

Fisherman Sweater: Value Village, Dress: goodwill, Tights: Nicole Miller, Brogues: goodwill


























I absolutely love this moon and stars print dress, and I'm pretty sure majority of my friends hate it. It reminds me of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus. Because the weather was so harsh out, I pulled this sweater over the dress.

Have a good evening! I really hope mine ends in a dance party and karaoke.

Denim & Suede

I really just didn't want to wear pants today, I scoured my closet and found this American Apparel dress and to keep it sort of season appropriate threw on some boots and a jacket.

Jacket: Levi's, Dress: American Apparel

Boots: Minnetonka





































Solid Perfume Brooch: Anthropologie

Spring brings flowers and puppies

Beautiful weather has landed in Georgia, for now. I am pumped! I need to start taking warm weather clothes out of storage, I feel like I just put them away!

cardigan: Pins and Needles (UO), Blouse: New York & Co, Tank: Hollister, Boyfriend Shorts: Olsenboye, Shoes: Etienne Aigner (goodwill), Belt: goodwll
 When I returned home last week, I discovered we acquired a new puppy! His name is Ribs, and he follows me everywhere, and so the photo-bombing begins...



























Abby (the Rat Terrier) was already good at photo-bombing, but she has nothing on Ribs, at least she poses, right? They also fight for my attention and are jealous, plus if Ribs won't leave me alone, Abby rescues me from him, by tackling. Aren't they the sweetest?

I'm going back to Atlanta tomorrow! I'll bring my camera cord this time and hopefully amazing things will happen!
