    Owl Always Love You

    Whenever my husband takes pictures with me, I inevitably get silly and forget how to pose. I think that even though I’ve been blogging for somewhere around four years now (well, fashion blogging; I blogged about other things long before that), I still feel awkward when people I know in real life know about it. Or talk to me about it. Or ask how many followers I have (no idea, honestly! I rarely look) or whether something I’m wearing is from a sponsor, or make a big deal out of a package I’ve gotten from someone because of blogging… It just feels odd. I think because my online presence —…

    The Everyday Mom

    Please vote for me in the Firmoo Blogger Awards contest! All you have to do is click the “vote” button once a day from now till the 14th, and you’re done! No sign-up, no required email address, nothin’! Just a click and done and I will love you forever! Today’s outfit is basically the equivalent of a tee shirt, sweatpants, and a sweater.  Don’t let the looks fool you guys, I could sleep in this. Fleece-lined leggings, a jacket made out of sweater material (the buttons make it look much more structured than it is) and a stretchy dress is the epitome of easiness, but thankfully it looks pretty because…

    The Nerdy Owl

    There are several things about today that make me incredibly happy. First, this dress. It has owls and bunnies and roses all over it, which are a few of my favorite things; it’s yellow, which is swiftly becoming my favorite color, and I am pretty sure that it will be working with me through every single season. It’s the perfect year-round dress. (My only complaints are that it’s quite staticky because of the fabric, which probably wouldn’t bother most people but I hate getting shocked, and it’s fitted enough of a top that I can’t quite lift my arms up all the way. Small things, though.) Secondly, the weather! It…

    You’re a Hoot

    This weekend, my husband and I are going to start in on another short film, this time just for fun. He’s had this idea to do a Red Riding Hood story for a while, but since we have no deadlines it’s just been simmering on a back burner and we’ve been procrastinating. But he wants to start making monthly short films, so hopefully we’ll be getting into the habit of filming more often! As always, I’m in charge of makeup and costumes. My niece, who will be Red Riding Hood, already has an amazing hooded cape we can use, but I’ve got to find the rest of her outfit as…

    Things I Want: Red and White

    Red Dress/Owl Sweater/Lip Balm/Teacup/Gloves/Heels/Whale Case/Red Skirt /Cream Dress/Bow Heels/Rose Earrings/Heart Spoon/Bow Sweater/Owl Dress I think I have finally been  bit by the Modcloth bug. Since purchasing my very first Modcloth Items — these tights, for my wedding, and these shoes… because I needed them…– I have been unable to leave the site alone, and I’ve been drooling over SO many items lately. I think my Modcloth Wishlists might become a weekly thing. I bought the Mariachi Knows Best dress for my wedding rehearsal, because I’m definitely one of those people who will dress up for ANY occasion. Plus, it is the perfect dress for holidays– Christmas and Valentine’s day, especially–…
