Well Kids...i'm trying this new thing called...NOT shopping! Yes i'm taking a much needed fast from the retail world and saving for a rainy day! (My Dad is probably having a myocardial infarction right now from the shock of reading those two sentences! Breathe Papi Louie, IN OUT, IN OUT!) haha This is no joke friends! NO SHOPPING!!!! What this means is better creativity and more craziness! (I can't wait!)

If i'm feeling brave I'm going to take on Kendi's 30 for 30 challenge (probably August) Read here! but until then, no shopping!

I am currently accepting gifts though ;)!

Hello there! I'm sorry for not posting! I feel like I'm a broken record, repeating myself every time I post but truly I am sorry! I've been little miss social butterfly lately and haven't had much time to post in between work, school, friends, and you know a little extra curricular activity here and there ;) hee hee

PLUS my handy dandy photographer (shelly belly) was out of town this week so boo hoo! And to be honestly with you I really barely got dressed this week. It was one of those weeks of, waking up LATE every morning and throwing on the first thing that looked semi decent! haha I promise I'll be better!

So...I've been on this jewelry making kick lately (SO FUN!) and there will be a give away (and pics) coming up soon when I can get my little bum in gear! :) Well, Happy Sunday I hope that the weather's as beautiful where you are as it is here! :)

 ps. only a month until I turn 23 AHHHHHHHH!

Hair

 

Oh my gosh you guys! I miss my LONG HAIR SO MUCH TODAY! 

Honestly erase Selena Gomez's face lol and imagine my hair that long! 

That's where it used to be like 5 months ago. And it's not like my hair is really that SHORT it's just like in that awkward inbetween stage where you get really sick of it and it's so tempting to chop it all instead of being patient and waiting for it to grow back! So yep time to call my cutie hair stylist ERIC (in Fruit Heights! look him up if you want your hair to be perfect!) and figure out what to do with this mop on my head! 

I'm thinking about dying it pink ;)

Land of The Free!

Details: Dress: Jcrew, Sweater: Downeast Basics (Lovely Christmas from a Roommate), Belt: Target, Heels: Franco Sarto

(Don't ask me why I look tan in the top picture but not this one lol)

What's a better way to spend a long weekend then with good friends, good food (we had the funnest BBQ with friends), and lots of funny stories?! I can't think of one can you?

I had the best weekend packed full with memories that will last me a lifetime and beyond!

I feel so blessed and so happy with where i'm at and where i'm headed.

I am incredibly thankful for those who fought for this beautiful country and especially for the special soldier in my life! I'm so proud of her and look up to her so much, she is a real hero! :) Also to my Grandparents, Uncle and other friends who served (and serve) for this country! Thank You!

 I wish Michael (my cute brother) and I could have gone to visit my Grandpa's Grave but it is quite far away!

Happy Memorial Day! (Yesterday) God Bless America! (Forever)

T&TR

Oh yes I do!!!

Details: Button Down Woven: Thrifted (I love good finds!), Jeans: 7 For All Mankind, Necklace: Downeast, Heels: Franco Sarto. (lol, Shell Belle (roommate) and I got matching watches for when we work at the ER, I forgot to take mine off! lol)

Haha Forgive me for not posting until...THURSDAY! lol I'm sorry! I don't know what it is about this week but it seems like it's been busy, even though I can't really remember why! haha!

Something funny about this outfit, one of my guy friends used to laugh at me and say; "Mar(e), how can you wear $100+ jeans and a shirt from DI (thrift store)?!" and I'd always answer..."That's fashion babe!" So today in honor of my good friend (YES! A few brave men read my blog) I paired up designer jeans, with a shirt I literally got for about $3.00. I guess it evens it out in my mind or how I justify it haha. 

I have a love hate relationship with Tuesdays and Thursdays (as many of you know). 

I've always liked being honest with my readers so here it is...the biggest reason I HATE (Alright, Alright, DISLIKE) T&TR is, yep.. I see HIM every T&TR. Yes HIM; cute, perfect, happy, all moved on, and still so very HANDSOME. Then there's me who puts a little more effort into looking cute on T&TR (pathetic I know), just trying to avoid any eye contact when I walk by. Occasionally if I'm feeling brave, I'll give a little wave but that's rare. Man, some days it STILL kills me but I'm a big girl (I Promise), and I'm moving on! I guess this makes me human and real and not just some wannabe fashion blogger out there! hee hee

So yeppers that's Tuesdays and Thursdays for ya!

PS. Leave me a comment about your T&TR's 

give me the good, the bad, or the ugly! 

One last minute funny... a hilarious picture of me trying to not let my paper blow away in the crazy wind lol!
