A few lovely things
I have been inundated with new and intriguing things all day today! I am so excited to share…
A yummy new sushi place in Fayetteville: Meiji. Their spicy crab salad ($5) changed my life today! They use only fresh ingredients – mostly local – and are very reasonable!
Adorable pieces from Maude Shoppe, most under $100!
A very cute new blog: Harper and Harley
A really exciting workout recommendation. The Brazilian Butt Lift. It’s by the same people as P90x. Apparently the models use it to get in shape before runway shows. Is this worth trying?
Two SUPER cute guides to NOLA. I love them because they are recommending places that are actually great. I know because I’ve been to them! The Perty South and The Comeback Kid. Seriously, who doesn’t love New Orleans?

Weekly Wish List: Forever 21
Starting a new weekly thing since I practically do this anyway. From Forever21’s new arrivals…these is my weekly wish list:
1 striped skirt 2 silk top 3 pineapple tube 4 tulle tutu (sooo SATC) 5 pattern romper 6 batwing top 7 sunglasses 8 tie-dye dress 9 stacked heels 10 also really want this vices shirt from UO
How to dress: Music Festival
So Wakarusa is coming up in less than 10 days and we don’t even have our tent/sleeping bags/anything together. That will all come…I’m hoping, but most importantly, what does one wear to a music festival. The good thing about a hippy-dippy-trippy music fest is that it is exactly that! Free-flowing moo-moos + hat, sunglasses and piles of necklaces = totally acceptable. Here are some pics from last year.
It looks like I wore little dresses, headbands, sunglasses, flippy-floppies, earrings and my handy-dandy fanny-pack. I plan on utilizing what worked last year and incorporating a few affordable new things I will use all summer.
Flowy, Flattering Dresses
1 Gingham Tube Dress 2 Mustard Floral Dress 3 Vintage Floral Dress 4 Orange knit dress All happen to be from Forever21
Headgear
1 Rope headband 2 Crepe headband 3 In the field Fedora
Fun swimsuits
1 Ruffled swimsuit 2 Boyfriend’s swim trunks with 3 Bandeau top 4 Pretty Posy bikini
Ear Candy
1 Leaf earrings 2 Lacquer Earrings 3 Clam dangle earrings (already have)
On the feets
1 Gold ankle strap sandals 2 Panther Chain Sandals 3 three strap sandal
Gap/Old Navy finally get dresses
What to wear to a wedding?
I am continually inspired by other blogs and The City Sage is one of my favorites. Yesterday, Anne posted Wedding Season Approacheth and gave some lovely recommendations.
Lo and behold, last night it was decided that my beau and I would be going to a wedding in “The Delta” this weekend.
It is already 90 degrees there, outside wedding, on the lake, afternoon, open bar….What to wear?
Definitely a hat, right?
1. Forever21 2. Target 3. Banana Republic 4. Dillards 5. Dillards
What about the dress? It’s going to be hot as Hades but it’s also with my BF’s family and I always want to stay classy and ladylike at a wedding!
1. Forever21 Ballerina dress, too much? 2. Dillards safe green dress 3. Dillards Halter, me likey – too much cleavage? 4. NY&co breezy short dress 5. Dillards little floral dress 6. Dillards really dig the color and style but might not be right for the occasion 7. Dillards I love this but I’m afraid it would look xxx on me…I got curves, yo! 8. Dillards I kinda love this canary color 9. Express Love the “blush” color
I think I’m going to go to Dillard’s right now and try on #3. Did I mention we’re bringing both the dogs on this lovely little outing? I’m sure I’ll have stories and pictures come Monday!
Shoe Lust
It’s beautiful outside and I’m salivating over summer sandals, flat and tall…shoes are the only thing you don’t grow out of, after all. Like my rhyme? You’ll like these shoes more.
