Sponsor Spotlight: Ahka Vintage
Before we get back into the last stint of wedding pictures, I am very pleased to introduce my newest sponsor to you all. Ahka Vintage carries many, many adorable vintage and retro pieces. I challenge you not to spend an hour or two browsing! Here are a few of my favorites: 1/2/3 4/5/6 I could go on and on about how many of their dresses I love, but you really should just go browse for yourself. A little bit about them: Ahka vintage is run by sisters who share a love for vintage (obviously), embrace that not all women are model-figured, and price their adorable clothing at incredibly great prices.…

Remix, repeat, rewear… etc…
I know, I know. I just wore this skirt… that is actually a dress. And I also said I probably wasn’t going to blog today. Well. It’s my blog, my rules. So there. I keep forgetting that I was going to do the 30-for-30 challenge, which… I am going to do it once I start house-sitting next week, and I haven’t bought anything new since I decided not to spend my tips in August, but I think that I am rendering the “first” outfit of 30-for-30 to be null and void. Oh well. Guess how long it took me to shoot my outfit pictures today? Five minutes. Yep, you read that right.…

These are a few of my favorite things
There was a really lovely breeze yesterday, so I decided to haul some of my favorite wardrobe pieces and accessories outside to take some pictures and share with you a few of my favorite things. Found at an antique store for $12. I’m afraid to wear it. It’s really delicate. Found at Goodwill for like… $7. I never wear this, either. It’s good for photoshoots, though. Given to me by my bride-friend for being in her wedding. Authentic 1940’s cocktail dress. I looove it. I have yet to wear it anywhere. Goodwill. $15. Local thrift store. $5… or maybe, maybe $6. This was… seven or eight dollars? Goodwill… again. Vintage…

Books, skulls, and cats.
You know, Wednesday should be Writing day. Because… y’know. WW. And then it could be Wednesday’s Weekly Writing Challenge. WWWC. Has a ring to it, doesn’t it? Okay. Nevermind. Not to bring a bit of depression to this ramble, but it has been exactly one week and a day since my nephew’s stillbirth. I really don’t know what else to call that day- it wasn’t exactly the day of his birth OR his death. But it feels like it’s been forever since December 28th, and I don’t know if this has to do with the high emotions of the day or that it’s already a new year. It does help…

I Like To Cut Things Up.
Amongst the other changes I’ve made recently- you know, eating healthy and all that- I’ve decided not to use my internet for anything but my Bible reading posts on Saturdays and Sundays. Why? Because I realized recently that there are days that go by where I do not put my computer down. All day. (Except to get some coffee.) And I was pretty much wasting my day doing absolutely nothing. I felt like I had to be online or I would miss something very important and… I don’t know. Some crap like that. One of the big reasons for ceasing to use my internet on the weekends is that my…
