Turn It Off

blouse: Express, sweater: American Eagle, trousers: Express, belt: thrifted, boots: Franco Saarto from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Marilyn earrings, gifted crest necklace

I wore this out to my audition today. I thought it looked like a defense attorney (which is what I was auditioning for), plus it's cute and fun. Haven't worn these pants for a while either and lemme tell you, I've definitely lost some weight since the last time (hence the belt).

I was possibly gonna go hangout with Dani tonight, but I totally needed a night in and I am SUPER excited to just veg out for a bit. I open tomorrow and train again and then have another audition (and possible callback too, and if not, then Oscar-watching with Dani!)

PS where are Girl Scout cookies? Isn't this Girl Scout cookie season? WHY CAN'T I FIND ANY KIDS SELLING THEM?

I want me some Tagalongs and Samoas. (Diet be damned! I'll freeze them for 3 weeks until I can eat sugar and carbs again... This is a once-a-year opportunity!)

Golden Medallian

tee: Pitaya, sweater: borrowed, pants: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, Cost Plus earrings

I wore this out to catch the Annex double-header last night. Two shows, one closing. Nicely done, everyone.

Be Careful What You Wish For

blouse: H&M, sweater: thrifted, tie: Slytherin from Harry Potter World, skirt: BCBG Maxazaria from Nordstrom, leggings: Forever 21, socks: gifted, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, giant gold disk earrings

I wore this to my opener this morning. Fun times. Good shift. First in a while I haven't had any training to think about. Kinda nice to be able to just... work. Plus, we were a bit slow, so I got to head out a little early. Nice to be home, knowing I have tomorrow off with two plays to see on the horizon.

The Least You Could Do

tank: Nordstrom, sweater: Parfait from Nordstrom, trousers: Express, shoes: Linea Paolo from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, pearl drop earrings

I wore this out to my audition yesterday and then to rehearsal... In the in-between I spent the whole 2.5 hours memorizing, re-memorizing and looking over all my lines. And yeah, it took the whole time... I think until we open (in less than a week!) I basically have to take the time each day to do that in order to ensure I am ready. Yesh. The price that comes with a mammoth role... Not complaining, just recognizing the work I have yet to do to nail the shit outta Hecuba.

All I Feel Is Pain

blouse: H&M, tank: Costco, sweater: Lux from Urban, leggings: Forever 21, socks: DKNY, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, gifted earrings

I wore this to yesterday's opener. It was a long day. Dunno really know why, but it was... At least the work part of it anyways...

Putting It All Together

tee: Rubbish from Nordstrom, tank: Costco, leggings: Forever 21, sweater: Lux from Urban, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom

I wore this to rehearsal on Wednesday night... After a super-productive day off of walking on the treadmill for 75 minutes (yeah, that's right) to memorize the VERY last big chunk I had left. Now, it's all in my brain. I just have to work toward getting it all out sensibly, in order, and with a little "acting" thrown back in there... We shall see...

Less than one week until open... (AHHHHHH!)

So Say We All

sweatshirt: Lululemon, leggings: Forever 21, tank: Costco, sneakers: Converse from Nordstrom

I wore this to rehearsal last night to our first off-book run. And YESH! It wasn't necessarily bad, but I did realize that I have a LOT more work to do. Especially on the Helen sections... But, overall, I really didn't need my script all that much. However, I do have a fatty stack of line notes to look over today.

Plans include heading over to the gym to do some treadmill memorizing and work my Intiman audition tomorrow (adding physicality into one of my monologues and looking at the pop song that I'm gonna sing...). Right after I get up off my butt and stop enjoying laying in my bed... le sigh...

Take Notice

dress: H&M, capris: Lululemon, socks: Ann Taylor, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Bellatrix Etsy necklace, teal drop earrings

I wore this to yesterday's opener and then to book it over to to pilates (YES) before napping and getting ready for our first off-book run...

Sensitivity

blouse: H&M, vest: Express, pants: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, tribal earrings

I wore this to my opener on Monday. Long day, but I was able to start training our new hire. Super heart her! She's awesome... Yay!

Tap Out

tee: HBO store, sweater: Cardigan NYC, jeans: J Brand from Nordstrom, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted rings, gifted button earrings

I am wearing this to my callback today. I figured I would wear something I thought a graphic designer would rock. w00t!

Above My Pay Grade

tee: H&M, sweater: Banana Republic gifted, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Chinese Laundry from DSW, accessoreis: Relic watch, Exress necklace, Marilyn earrings, gifted rings

I wore this out to see Cradle & All closing at the Schmee last night. Now about to get ready to head to the student film callback... Here we go!

Beauty & The Beast

blouse: Forever 21, skirt: BCBG Maxazaria from Nordstrom, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Marilyn earrings

I wore this out to my opener this morning and working with two sick people is not so much fun. Let me tell you. I was beyond happy I got to leave a few hours early to head to my audition (which went super well. Seriously hoping for a callback!!!!!) and then out to see I Am My Own Wife at the Rep (awesome!)...

Grocery shopping before heading home and cooking and getting ready to head back out again to catch another show... Busy ass day, but good times, for realz.

Plucked from Obscurity

tunic: Michael Starrs from Nordstrom, sweater: thrifted, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: long black beaded necklace, Relic watch, teal dangle earrings

I am wearing this out with Dani tonight and then tomorrow I after my opener I am going to an audition and I have another one on Sun. And, I think, three next week? Audition season is upon us, for realz...

Guiding Through

dress: H&M, capris: Lululemon, socks: gifted, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted earrings, gifted mini-heart necklace

I wore this to my opener this morning. It was hard, I am telling you. Working at 430 after a late rehearsal is going to be the death of me, for cereal. But then, I went ahead and hit up some yoga and then over to the Olive Way Bux to memorize some more lines. Then, I am going to hangout and hopefully see Chicago at Second Story tonight. And then open again tomorrow... Yesh...

Comfortable Decision

tee: Rubbish from Nordstrom, sweater: Lux from Urban, tank: Costco, leggings: Forever 21, socks: gifted, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch

I wore this to rehearsal last night. We ran through the whole show and, despite the fact that I need some REAL line-working time, I think it looks pretty good. But JESUS, I have a LOT left to memorize... Wish me luck with that this weekend

No Explanation Necessary

blouse: Express, skirt: Forever 21, belt: thrifted, blazer: Dior thrifted, heels: Unlisted from DSW, accessories: gifted rings, Relic watch, pearl drop earrings

I wore this to our video shoot tonight. Quick and easy. And a whole two blocks from my apt! FTW! This is after we've lost the election in a TMZ style paparazzi attack. It was fun times.

Uncover the Mystery

blouse: H&M, sweater: thrifted, trousers: H&M, shoes: Sperry Top-Siders from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, giant gold disk earrings

I wore this to my opener this morning. Yesh. Day six was super hard times. Dislike. But I got to get outta there a bit early and that was a blessing for realz. Tomorrow's day off is MUCH needed.

Love, Love, Love

dress: H&M, sweater: thrifted, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: long teal earrings, Relic watch

I wore this to my opener this morning. Yesh, this week is hard. I was exhausted. And I had a training training shift for the last hour. The last hour in a 8.5 hour shift. BLEARG. I was basically incomprehensible... yuck. Not really looking forward to next week's training shifts with our new hire since they're all in my last four hours. Although I AM excited to train Liz (a regular who is joining the team--w00t!) and to start on the track to my promotion...

New Blood

tee: Express, skirt: Mod Cloth, leggings: Forever 21, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, sweater: (unpictured) thrifted, accessories: Relic watch, long black beaded necklace & gold disk earrings (unpictured)

I wore this to my film audition and then out to rehearsal. Yay for back at rehearsal. I SUPER need to memorize lines since our off-book day is next Monday... YESH!

Partnering Up

blouse: Old Navy, trousers: H&M, belt: thrift, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch 

I wore this to my mid-shifty yesterday. Blearg. It sorta hurts me to work mids... Makes me sad panda and then I don't even get a nap in. It's no good at all. Although, I do enjoy the sleeping in part of the shift...

Eyes on the Prize

blouse: H&M, trousers: H&M, belt: thrifted, shoes: Sperry Top-Siders from Nordstrom, socks: borrowed, accessories: Relic watch, Charlotte Russe necklace, Cost Plus earrings

I wore this to my closing shifty on Sunday. Picked up an extra two hours so that I was able to get a little bit more monies. w00t. Worked at 8.5 hour shift and STILL got to sleep in. Loverly! But I didn't really get that much sleep, though. I guess that's what happens when you attack your taxes starting at 1AM...

Pandora Connection

tee: Saatchi Gallery London, sweater: thrifted, scarf: gifted Zara, jeans: BDG from Urban, belt: Uniqlo, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted earrings

I wore this to hangout with la mama at U Village, do some grocery shopping and head to OtB to see Mariano Pensotti (AMAZING!) and grabs drinks/foodzies afterwards. Good times!

Reunited

blouse: H&M, skirt: H&M, capris: Lululemon, socks: gifted, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Bellatrix Etsy necklace, long teal earrings

I wore this to my opener on Saturday. Planning on going to my shoot afterwards, but it was cancelled (rained out), so I was able to hangout with la mama!

Running Outta Time

blouse: Old Navy, skirt: Papaya, capris: Lululemon, socks: gifted, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories:  Relic watch, pink leopard earrings

I wore this to my opener this morning. I had plans to see a play tonight, but when a friend rescheduled, it seemed like a gift. I am so happy to just stay in and veg for a night. Yay! Night in!

Save the Last Dance

tee: Seattle Shakes, tank: Costco, sweater: Lux from Urban, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted rings

I am gonna wear this out to rehearsal tonight. Yay!

Straightened Out

tee: thrifted, sweater: Halogen from Nordstrom, jeans: J Brand from Nordstrom, flats: BDG from Urban, accessories: Relic watch, gifted rings, Cost Plus leaf earrings

Yesterday I went to yoga and then hung out at a Bux on the Hill to memorize lines before hanging out with Dani last night. We were gonna go see a show, but then we just started talking and lost track of time and kept hanging out until pretty late. Yay! Friend time!

Solves Problems

tee: H&M, vest: Macy's, shorts: thrifted, leggings: Forever 21, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, long beaded necklace, gifted rings, pearl drop earrings

I wore this to rehearsal Tuesday night... We worked the end of the show and then attacked my big speeches. Yesh. It was a thing.

Count to Four

blouse: H&M, trousers: H&M, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, orange diamond earrings

I wore this to my opener this morning and then to head out and run a ton of errands and head to pilates before coming home... I am now gonna take a little nappy, a shower and head out to rehearsal tonight. Here we go! Tomorrow is gonna be memorization day too. I am gonna head to yoga at noon and then the library to sit, memorize and then head to meet Dani for foodzies, drinkles and either a play or a movie! YAY!

The Quickening

tee: swapped Anne Taylor, sweater: Fossil, leggings: Forever 21, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted mini-heart necklace, Enerjewels earrings

I wore this out to rehearsal last nigh. Seriously, so happy to have tomorrow off and not have to wake up early for two whole days...

One of Us

blouse: H&M, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, shoes: Sperry Top-Siders from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, red hoop earrings

I wore this to yesterday's opener. And talk about exhaustion! Seriously. Ridic. I was barely human yesterday. I even managed to sleep through an audition. Literally SLEPT THROUGH. I lay my head down for 30 minutes (and even set an alarm), but managed to sleep for three hours. Turned out to me much needed as I highly doubt I could have gotten through last night's rehearsal if I would have gone to the callback, but it seriously SUCKS.

Oh Vell... She's trying to reschedule me, so I hope I can get in at another time...

Truth Hurts

blouse: H&M, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, gifted earrings (in Giants colors!)

I wore this to my (FIRST EVER) closer on Sunday night. Went great and would have been fine, but... it was Superbowl Sunday (le boo) and I completely missed the game (LE BOOOOO) AND I had to open on Monday (LEEEEEEEE BOOOOOOOOO)...

But now I have done it! And I do it again this Sunday. Significantly less daunting now.

Hunter & Prey

tee: Anthropologie, sweater: borrowed, skirt: thrifted abercrombie & fitch, tights: American Apparel, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted mini-heart necklace

I wore this out Saturday night to see R&G at SPT and to hangout with Dani & Nathaniel for their birthdays and all my UW peeps. SO MUCH FUN! I miss them!

Thinking Ahead

blouse: H&M, skirt: BCBG Maxazaria from Nordstrom, tights: American Apparel, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted mini-heart necklace

I wore this to my opener on Saturday and then straight to my audition over on the Eastside.

In Your Vest Interest

tee: the ballet studio from American Apparel, vest: Nordstrom, jeans: H&M, shoes:  Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, mini-heart gifted necklace

I wore this out to catch StrawShop's The Bells on Fri night. And then crash before my opener on Sat...

More Than Innocent

dress: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, socks: DKNY, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted mini-heart necklace, gifted dreamcatcher earrings

I wore this to my opener this morning and to my audition this afternoon... Tonight's plan includes seeing a show and then possibly heading to Spin the Bottle after (depending on my energy level...) Since I do have to open in the morning... then head to my audition, see another show and go to a bday party. Straight. No time at home. At all. Yesh...

Conquer Your Fears

tee: Fluxus from Nordstrom, sweater: Lux from Urban, leggings: Forever 21, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories:  Relic watch, long beaded necklace, gold oblong earrings

I wore this to my rehearsal last night. It was good, but a little ridiculous... By Thursdays we're always a little bit... exhausted and... emotionally wrought.

Hang On

blouse: Forever 21, trousers: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, belt: thrifted, accessories:  Relic watch,  giant gold disk earrings

I wore this to my 10-hour day yesterday. Yesh. Talk about a Monday from Hell...

Powerful Ally

sweater: Lux from Urban, skirt: Forever 21, belt: H&M, blazer: By Malene Birger thrifted, stockings: Victoria's Secret, pumps: Seychelles from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch

I am wearing this to the video shoot for Trojan Women tonight (ya know, for the modern day era bit about me & my hubby being politicians...). This looks political, right?

She's So Heavy

tee: Seattle Shakes, sweater: thrifted, skirt: thrifted abercrombie & fitch, leggings: Forever 21, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: gifted rings, gifted crest necklace, Relic watch, Cost Plus leaf earrings

I wore this out to meet the froomie and grab a great homemade pasta lunchie! YES! Then I ran a bunch of errands and am now home to work on lines and get ready for the video shoot tonight...

Then I hop into the craziness of my week: opening and working until 130 or 2 tomorrow; opening on Fri followed by a ton of auditions and then seeing a play; opening Sat followed by an audition, seeing a play and then Dani & Nathaniel's bday party. Then, on Sunday, I have my first closing shift at work, which, of course, coincides with the superbowl (DAMMIT!)...

Here. We. Go.
