Calculated Violence

tank: Nordstrom, sweater: borrowed, jeans: BDG from Urban, flats: Linea Paolo from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted mini-heart necklace, new Nordstrom earrings
I wore this to my first Bernarda Alba rehearsal! SOOOO excited for this show! I love my cast and my part (which is a LOT bigger than I remembered it being from my first read of the script...). Plus, it's going to be good. It already seems well thought out and really organized. Basically, I can't wait.

Then I had my audition for the Alice in Wonderland inspired musical. It seemed to go well, so... now I'm just hoping I can actually do both if I get cast... We shall see... First of all, I need to be called back though...

Crown of Ages

tank: Urban, skirt: abercrombie & fitch thrifted, sweater: thrifted, leggings: Forever 21, shoes: Toms from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Express necklace
I wore this out to see Sound Theatre's The Foreigner and hangout with some friendzies. It was a really hilarious show. Afterwards, I grabbed a movie and stayed up late (just because I could!) and it was great. Exactly what I needed...

My Hero

blouse: H&M, skirt: BCBG Maxazaria from Nordstrom, leggings: Lululemon, shoes: Toms from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch
I wore this to my early-mid shift yesterday. It was pretty crazy and then at the end I got to go ahead and carry just about 500 lbs of milk (oh, ya know, 36 gallons two ways, 6-at-a-time with only 4 trips being carried by someone else) since we accidentally over ordered milk that was delivered this morning. It was insanity. And holy crap, I am SOOOO sore right now... Blearg.

Then I ran a bunch of errands (NEW CONTACTS!!!!) and got ready to head to a show... Three days off is much needed and gonna be filled with fun and friends! And the beginning of my two-week housesitting gig...

Someone to Catch

blouse: H&M, sweater: H&M, leggings: Lululemon, skirt: H&M, socks: DKNY, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, orange diamond earrings
I wore this to my borrowed shift (1st & Marion) early-mid today... It was super fun. Busy, busy, busy. But in a good way. Plus VERY different than my store. No one asked for the bathroom code, almost everyone paid in  cards (especially GOLD cards), and almost everyone was a regular. Plus, their store was TEEEEEENY. I mean SMALL. And there were, like, five of us on the floor... Yesh. Good times though. I appreciated all of them.

AND three of them are theatre peeps! That was awesome-sauce!

What's The Story?

Drift Away

blouse: H&M, sweater: thrift, tank: Costco, leggings: Forever 21, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, black beaded necklace, Cost Plus earrings
I wore this to my most failed attempt at an audition ever. Not that the audition was bad, but I realized half way there that the show completely conflicts with House of Bernarda Alba, so I wouldn't be able to do it anyway. Tried to call but no one answered, so I just showed up and asked and... turned out, yup, wouldn't work at all. So, I went grocery shopping and came home... Whoops.

Hotel, Motel

dress: H&M, leggings: Lululemon, socks: Ann Taylor, boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch,
I wore this to yesterday's little shorty opener and then I ran some errands and watched three whole movies! It was like I was a real person with time on my hands able to watch movies and enjoy my time off... (PS Drive, My Week with Marilyn & Melancholia are all pretty damn good).

Lovely & Wonderful

blouse: H&M, trousers: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, belt: thrifted, accessories: gifted crest necklace, Relic watch, pearl drop earrings
I wore this to my opener this morning. Whoosh. Even though I didn't DO really anything yesterday (hey, I did some laundry! I did laundry, people!), I was exhausted today. And got to head out a bit early (thank god) and as I headed in the back room to clock out my manager just looks at me and says, "You look wiped, Gina." and that about sums it up.

I was gonna head to a show tonight, but I think I'm gonna give myself as much time off this week as possible. And I'll cram all the shows in this weekend. w00t! Plus pie party with my peeps on Thurs! Yes! Pies! And games! And not having to open the next morning!

Going Green

I wore this out to the final show of Trojan Women last night and to the lil cast party we had afterwards... It was fun times. Good final show and good times hanging out with the cast and everyone involved in the show afterwards. It was St Patty's Day too, so that was fun.

Sordid Details

blouse: H&M, vest: Express, tank: Costco, capris: Lululemon, socks: DKNY, boots: Frye (FIXED!) from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, pink leopard earrings
I wore this to yesterdays opener. And dear my lord, I was exhausted. Going out with Jess and Danielle was fun, but you know, made for a looooooong 9 hour work day. 10 shots of expresso got me through the day all crazy-like, however, I was still able to nap for an hour once I got home... Dear lord. I am not going to do anything today.

Candid Shots

tee: Banana Republic, sweater: Fossil, tank: Costco, leggings: Forever 21, socks: gifted, wellies: Tommy Hilfiger from DSW, accessories: Express necklace, Relic watch, Nordstrom earrings
I'm getting ready to head out to the first performance on the final week of Trojan Women. Yesh! This thing has FLOWN by. I am a little happy for it to almost be over. I am really proud of it and have had an absolute blast working on it, but... It exhausts me. I am so tired and this play just sucks it outta me. At least I don't have to open tomorrow (I get to go in at 630... so two more hours, which is loverly).

Settling Down

sweater: H&M, blouse: H&M, trousers: H&M, belt: thrifted, socks: gifted, boots: Blowfish from DSW, accessories: Relic watch, new Nordstrom earrings
I wore this to my opener this morning and I went ahead and wore it out to Costco later on... Boo on the trip taking too long to make yoga, but yay for ordering new contacts (four boxes for $100--yes, please!) and for getting a few fun foodzies in the process. But BOO on having to pay the renewal fee. Like I have the monies...

On the good news front, Nordys called to say that my boots (all three!) are mended and all ready to go! Yes! That means no more wet feet (oh yeah, the boots above totally leak) and no more holes in the bottom of my expensive boots. And all for $30. This is why I shop at Nordstrom.

Look Into It

blouse: H&M, sweater: H&M, trousers: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Bellatrix necklace from Etsy, Cost Plus leaf earrings
I wore this to work this morning after literally doing nothing yesterday. At one point I considered going grocery shopping, but then the deluge started outside and I decided to postpone until today... Well, I did shower yesterday, but other than that I think I slept about 16-18 hours and just watched TV and ate. It was glorious. And I still woke up tired this morning (but not in the oversleeping tired way, in the I'm still exhausted even though I got enough sleep last night kind of way).

So, I think I overcompensated and ran a TON of errands and got SO much done today post-work. Managed to decide to get my three working pairs of boots fixed all at once (so, now I'm bootless in rainy Seattle spring...whoops... for about a week... double whoops...) and even though I bought a new pair, they have to be shipped to Nordys and they won't be there for another week or so either. DAMMIT. Oh wells. Guess I'll just be wearing my wellies and changing into work shoes once I get there...

Then I headed to yoga and went directly to a matinee of a Red at the Rep (SO GOOD--definitely stealing a monologue from it, even though it's 2 guys...), did some grocery shopping and came home and made dinner for the week...

Tomorrow's plans include work, Costco run for contacts, oatmeal and other large items then trying to get back in time for yoga, passing out for a bit and then heading to the last weekend of the show! w00t!

Always Where I Need to Be

dress: Zara from Panama, sweater: thrifted, tights: Spanx from The Rack, boots: MIA from The Rack, accessories: Relic watch, long black beaded necklace, red hoops   
I wore this to this evening's audition. So happy it's done. And I was soo tired. I definitely made up a word in my first monologue... YESH! Hoping for a callback... Wish I hadn't been so utterly exhausted... Damn cray cray schedule...

Calico Pie

blouse: Old Navy, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, socks: American Eagle, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, red hoop earrings
I wore this to my long-ass opener this morning on a collective 6 hours sleepin 3 days... slowly dying...

Starting Something New

As preggers wifey for the present day parts of the film
HAHAHAHAHA! This is perhaps the most upsetting picture ever. Seriously. But pretty damn funny. I kinda couldn't NOT post it. Should have some great versatile footage for my reel with this film (soccer mom & hipster all in one!), which makes me super happy... Gotta start somewhere, right?

Saving Nothing

turtleneck: H&M, skirt: BCBG Maxazaria from Nordstrom, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: orange diamond earrings, Relic watch
I wore this to my opener on Sunday. After getting less than 3 hours sleep. And knowing that I had to do it all over again the next day... It was awful. And took me 8 shots of espresso to get through my 6 hour work day and 12 hour shoot... YESH.

First Time For Everything

Coming from the office after getting my promotion and the next morning cleaning up after our big fight
First time I ever acted in a film a success! Yay! She even got my hair to curl a bit. Yayers! It was fun. Definitely different. It felt like every shot was a mini tech rehearsal. And I liked it. Acting out of order feels different and hard, but not undoable. I for sure wanna do more and cannot WAIT to see how this little 10-minute short turns out. w00t! New exxperiences.

I did, however, get a collective 6 hours of sleep over the last 3 nights, so... a bit tired. And completely in need of tomorrow off. Taking the day to do NADA.

Hit the Big Time

blouse: Old Navy, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, accessories: Harry Potter, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Cost Plus earrings
I wore this to my opener on Saturday morning after a great (but very different--no crying) show on Friday night and grabbing drinks with Dani afterwards. Then I headed up to the house where we were shooting all weekend...

Storybook Setting

tee: Express, sweater: thrifted, shorts: thrifted, tights: Urban, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, long black beaded necklace, pink leopard earrings
I am wearing this out to my final show this weekend (crazy that it's only a Fri, weird!). Tomorrow and Sunday are full of work and filming! Yesh! I am definitely excited for how busy this weekend is gonna be, but also a little bit nervous that I'm not really gonna have a weekend... And I think our wrap time is gonna be around 10pm both days, so no shows for me this weekend... Blearg. But it's good! Plus I just found out I get PAID! Yay! First film (ok, it's a short, but STILL) and I get paid for it? Win, win.

All right, so heading to the show!

About Everything

blouse: H&M, jeans: H&M, shoes: Tom's from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Charlotte Russe necklace,  giant gold disk earrings
I wore this to my little shorty princess shift this morning. So happy it was short. I was exhausted. No more opening after performing Trojan Women. Yesh. Perma-headache. For Realz.

Game On

Rebuilt

blouse: Anthropologie, sweater: Parfait from Nordstrom, jeans: J Brand from RueLaLa, wedges: Cooperative form Urban, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, Cost Plus earrings
I wore this to day 2 of jury duty. And seriously? Everyone who complained about jury duty can suck it. I had a GREAT time! One of the first groups grabbed, chosen for my first jury, in and outta there in 1.5 days and dismissed by lunch of the second day!

It was loverly. But seriously? The prosecuting attorney was sooo incompetent. He must have been super green because the judge had to prompt him about things constantly and he always seemed scattered with his nose in his notes... Needless to say, we came back with a "not guilty" verdict...

Nice, also, to find out that I have a day off tomorrow and that Starbucks will reimburse me for my jury duty days! Yay!

Back to Trojan Women tonight! Here we go!

Screaming Guilt

tee: Seattle Shakes, sweater: Pitaya, jeans: BDG from Urban, boots: Chinese Laundry from DSW, accessories: Relic watch
I wore this to jury duty today. Got placed in the first group and then got selected for a jury, so two or three more days of this and I'll be done. More after the trial ends.

I was a little bummed not to have remembered to email myself these pictures thinking I'd be sitting around all day doing nothing, but since I was placed right away I actually had very little down time. Think I'm not even gonna bring my computer with me tomorrow (I KNOW), but my books will def be coming with me... And my script. Since we have a performance tomorrow night...

I was supposed to have rehearsal for the movie I'm filming tonight, but the director had a family emergency so we canceled. And I am kinda glad. I needed a night off. So thank god.

Deal With It

I wore this to my opener this morning... Le boo. Soooo tired all day. But glad to get the hours in and everything since I (potentially) have jury duty for the rest of the week...

Then I ran a number of errands and hit up yoga.

Eskimo Kisses

Tick of Time

dress: Anthropologie, socks: Ann Taylor, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, gifted crest necklace, Enerjewels earrings
I wore this to my Wooden O audition yesterday. Then to Pygmalion. I had a great audition and enjoyed a fun show. Before I went to get a show on of my own.

Hard to Live in the City

tee: Out by 2AM from Urban, tank: Costco, leggings: American Apparel, sweater: Fossil,  boots: Frye from Nordstrom, accessories: Express, Relic watch
I wore this to the show Friday night! Yay! Then grocery shopping for the week and getting ready to go join Dani for a drink when I totally conked. Felt great to get some sleep and feel rested and ready to go on Saturday...

Also, these boots totes have a hole in the bottom. I bought them for over $300 less than 6 months ago. I will be having words with Nordstrom...

Signed, Sealed, Delivered

blouse: H&M, sweater: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, socks: gifted, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch
I wore this to my final early mid. I am so happy to have had two days off. And on top of that, I got cast in a movie that films next weekend, which is perfect timing since I don't have a show on Sat or Sun (although I am opening both days, thanks to jury duty--le boooooo).

I am about to head to rehearsal for the film and then get ready for my opener tomorrow. Back to the (semi-) regular grind (after a few days of sitting in a room doing nothing--jury duty!)

Get It Together

sweater: H&M, blouse: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch
I wore this to my early mid on opening night! Yes! And then I wore this TO my opener. not very creative, but I wanted to make sure I'd have time to get ready for the show...

Access Denied

A Little Richer

thermal: borrowed, sweater: thrifted, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Charlotte Russe necklace
I wore this to the first day of tech. Oh holy hell. I was terrified. But nice to finally be in the space and seeing everything eventually coming together.

Watch Closely

blouse: H&M, sweater: thrifted, skirt: H&M, leggings: Forever 21, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Charlotte Russe necklace, gifted earrings
I wore this to work on Tuesday. Rocked my early mid...

Suppressing Your Instincts

blouse: H&M, tank: Costco, leggings: Forever 21, socks: DKNY, boots: Report Signature from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, Charlotte Russe necklace, gifted earrings
I wore this to my late/mid on Monday and to my audition that night. I got caught in this crazy traffic because a dump truck took down the electric bus lines and it took me an hour-and-a-half to get home when it normally would only take 15 minutes... Meant I didn't have time to change or shower, but all is well because I rocked it and got cast! Doing House of Bernarda Alba with Arouet after Trojan Women closes... w00t!

Salty

blouse: H&M, sweater: H&M, trousers: H&M, boots: OTBT from Nordstrom, accessories: Relic watch, orange diamond earrings
I wore this to my Sunday opener a week ago--whoops... Sorry, I got a little busy this last week between housesitting and teching and opening and working and training... Yesh...

I had an audition after work that I bailed on in order to watch the Oscars and chill out for a bit. It was quite nice. And very necessary...
