COVET

Although the beach looks amazing, what I REALLY want is the sunny warm weather (can I get an A-MEN from all you other Seattlites?!) I mean, where did our spring go? Apparently, yesterday was the coolest Cinco de Mayo on record (48 degrees)! WTF?! Come on weather!

Gimme some SUN!!!!

Twirling, Swirling Into the Deep

Happy Seis de Mayo! Although most people celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I know the true day to celebrate is el SEIS, porque es un dia de los cumpleanos de me mama. Feliz Cumpleanos, mama!

After yesterday's mental clusterfuck, I am glad to begin a new day with, hopefully, better results.

Thank God for rehearsal, that is all I have to say...

Today I am feeling a litte twirly, swirly, girly in my F21 grey ballerina skirt, black gifted v-neck tie-waist sweater with satin puff sleeves, Urban fishnet leggins, DKNY black knee socks and black shiny faux snake skin Dolce Vita heels from Nordys.

Yay for new beginnings and a free last minute lunch (assisting in Seattle market has its perks)! Today already feels superior to yesterday.

Konnichiwa Bitches

And Sayonara Suckas! I love this Robyn song, makes me think of today's sweater dress.

Today I am wearing my grey bat-wing, cowl neck kimono inspired sweater dress with a black wrap & tie belt from H&M, black side-zip F21 leggings and my thrifted grey open back booties with bows. I am also rocking my white flower headband from Claire's--I think.

Cinco de Mayo peeps! And I have rehearsal... All I want is a good enchilada with rice & beans (Mama's Mexican Kitchen, anyone?) and (5 or 6 or 7...) margaritas. But I will be responsible and memorize my lines (it's off-book day!) and go to rehearsal and then get some sleep... Like an adult... (I wish I could go back to college...)

Ce la vie...

Sleeve Peek

This is my favorite part of today's outfit: the way my grey and black striped sleeve peeks out from underneath the electric blue and black of the houndstooth blazer. It's sorta genius in my opinion.

Long live pattern mixing! All it takes is a little courage...

True True Blue

My one missing bag (the one with all my soft hats and bras in it) has been found! Thank GOD. I don't know what I would have done if I had lost those...

Houndstooth, Stripes and (faux) Lace--Oh My!

Gifted (thanks Steph!) black Banana Republic heels, blue tights with black faux lace design from Urban, black Isabella Bird shift dress (re-purposed from my high school jazz choir days), H&M striped grey and black turtleneck and Dior electric blue and black houndstooth 80s jacket from my step-mom's closet. Also wearing a thrifted skinny black patent leather belt.

Matt told me I look "business power broad" today. And I'm OK with it! Just having fun mixing and matching!

Just Another Reason I Wanna Go To Panama

Courtesy of my Dad (who is clearly following my blog--love you, Dad!). Can't wait to come visit...in 10 months... boo...

Long Time No See

It was the move, I promise. I still love you, bloggers! And now that I am all in my new place (w00t!), I will be able to get back to the important blogging everyday. Two whole days off... Whew! I feel like I killed a baby or something... no good...

There were also a series of events that all coincided in a maelstrom of perfect timing that kept me from posting as well. A of all there was the move (of course), B of all the lack of teh internetz (due to A) and C of all the dead camera batteries made more difficult due to A (and the fact tat I had no idea where I packed them...). But now I am a work (internet!) and my camera has batteries (huzzah!), but I'm not gonna be able to add pictures until I get home because we still have no internetz... But 2 outta 3 is not bad!

Today, due to the post-packing, -moving, -unpacking exhaustion, I am wearing my (new to me) black Jolt fake jeans from BP (I had a pair that I bought in November and wore ALL THE TIME. Recently, they started to rip and then the zipper broke, but Nordstrom replaced them for freezies--why I love the Nordstrom!), Urban screen print flower tee, pink A&E cardigan and Sperry Top-Siders.

Pics when I get home? I dunno... I all depends on teh internetz...
