What I Wore: Suspenders

what I wore: blouse & suspenders – vintage from potter’s house, trousers – new york & co, croc heels – gianni bini (also seen here)
I was super into this ensemble until several employees of Forever21 told me they liked my outfit. While I obviously buy from there, I never want to look like the store threw up on me. My general consensus was to take the compliment and move along. Because, I have always found that graciously accepting a compliment is the best way to react. No one wants to hear you mouth off about how terrible you think you look because a) you either mean it or b) you don’t and both are sad.
Sorry…I’ve completely digressed. I’ve included a picture of my beautiful Bird. She turned 2 last week.

Silly Buddy

I just came across this adorable Etsy shop called Silly Buddy. They make custom bow tie collars, regular collars and leashes. I don’t know if I can make it through the day without purchasing one for these two.

Which one is your fave?

Moving & Marrying

Tumblr_kzuvq2qukb1qza0fjo1_400_large

As of Friday morning (the same day I woke up at 4am to watch the royal wedding) there was nothing packed in either Robert’s or my house. As of today, we are living in the new house. So… a lot went down over the last few days. There was rain, there was 40 degree weather, there were floods and not everything is complete… BUT! we spent the night there last night! I cannot put into words the relief I feel today as I think about my new home with the guy I love and our little doggies. More to come about decorating and the like…

I hope you had a good weekend!

The Glamour

Oh I love this editorial. So glamorous. I would wear every single item in here – right down to the nail polish. Photos by Olivia Graham.

Transparency

Remember when see-through purses were in? I don’t think I’ll ever go back there. But, I do believe this is the chicest of umbrellas. And I’m partial to a harlequin great dane.

the best umbrella.

Happy (April) Weekend

Flowers are blooming and the weather is warmer.  Have a cocktail. Go on a date. Wear a backless dress. Sleep in. Walk the dogs. Go to a party. Take a bath. Do whatever you want and enjoy every second. xo
