Gettin Fancy

Hey everyone! Its been awhile. I have just been busy with the usual. Work, social life, hanging out, getting a new awesome tattoo. Works been good, we're finally clearing out all our winter stuff and are accepting spring consignment. Thats been really fun going through all these awesome spring clothes. Its been nice getting to really experience seasons up here, but Im over winter now. Its to long! Today is my day off and Ive just been catching up with things, working on the blog. I finally have blog buttons for everyone to copy! Took forever to figure it out but had some help from James last night, and I worked on it this morning. Also, like the new header? I do! Time to move forward from winter and snow. So I couldnt pick out just one outfit today. Nothing was really inspiring me. I decided to clean my room and as I was going through things, I re-found a few awesome long gowns I have gotten since I moved to Boston.

So today I decided to play dress up and show off 3 dresses, all of which I got at this place called Boomerangs, which is right down the street from my house. So they have this one rack, where they moved certain items that have been there for awhile, and make it $1. Yes thats right, $1. So these 3 dresses, were all ONE DOLLAR! What a steal.



So this dress, amazing right! SO vintage! The only thing is, is theres a stain on the front. Im either going to cut it and make it shorter, or add some kind of embellishment to it.






The only thing wrong with this dress was the velvet was starting to fade a little, no big deal.






And my personal favorite. Nothing like a stunning black gown.


...and on those cold winter nights, you can snuggle up to me anytime handsome.




So for the other two dresses I wore heels, but this dress was long enough to the floor I didnt have to, seeing as how I stand on my tippy toes all the time. I just thought this was cute.




Im loving my hair and how fast its growing out. I pinned it up today and it looked so pretty. I always have fun when I play dress up. I really dont know where on earth Ill wear these dresses but I own them, because the are beautiful and needed a great loving home. Im a sucker for gowns and glamor. Things have been really good though. James and I have been kickin it for a month now, which is just nice considering all the goofy first dates I went on when I first moved to Boston. We made dinner last night, it was delish! Katie, our new roommate, is turning out to be a great fit. I just adore her. Shes a great new addition to the house. Can anyone else believe how fast February is flying by??? The month is almost over, and Ill be in Florida in 2 weeks!!! I cant wait to go home and visit. No big plans for the weekend, just hanging out at home and kickin it. We've all really gotten into playing bridge at home so Ill probably work on my cards skills later. I hope everyone else is doing well and getting ready for spring! Xoxo my lovely readers!

Valentines Day!

Hope you all had a good Valentines day! I wish I could say I did, but I ended up working open to close a lone, then came home to an empty house. So I got drunk and ordered chinese from Food Wall. It was an extremely long day and I was just glad for it to be over. I wasnt all hung up on Valentines day gush, just tried from work. Things are better now. I finally got the day off and Ive been doing good by catching up on everything.

Well I did get all dressed up for work.









I got home after a long night and had 2 boxed from Florida waiting for me. Totally made me whole day awesome. Mary sent me a TON of Valentines Day candy, my teeth are gonna rot! Haha. Awesome pink bubble wrap too.


All in all things are ok. Another big sale this weekend at work, we'll see how it fairs out. Im glad to have the day off to relax, catch up on things, hang out with my friends. Hope everyone else is doing good and getting lots done! Xoxo!!

Asyna Asayn 2-11-11

Friday the 11th I went and saw one of Jame's bands called Asyna Asayn at the PA's Lounge in Somerville. Needless to say, I was blown away by all their musical talent. The show was really awesome and a lot of fun. I got to hang out with some new friends Ive made through Tegan and Jason with out them being there, it was cool getting to hang with Nate and Dan. Ive really been happy with my new friends up here. It just keeps getting better.

Im really glad to be getting back into band photography, I was more than happy to take these for them.

Best friends and dress up!

So sometime last week one night, Tegan and I were doing some drinking and got the best idea ever to get dressed up and take photos for my blog. Ive been dieing to get here into this with me and needless to say we had a total blast. She put on one of her Grammy's dresses and looked so pretty! I put on this new top that I had gotten. Im dieing to wear warmer clothes!

I pretty much look forward every day to going home and seeing Tegan, and when Im off from work and home, I cant wait till 4 for her to get home. Im so glad we've been hanging out and having a great time. It was a lot of fun to get her into doing this with me. I set up my tri-pod in the corner and gave her the count down. So after a few glasses of wine, this is what best friends do late at night haha.















Then it was time to bring Chad the camel into the picture. He's like our house pet.



Getting to hang out with Tegan is awesome. Goodness Ive been working a lot lately. I went to New York on Saturday, got back Sunday morning and went to work to close. Then Monday I worked open to close a lone, its just been a looooong week haha. Im finally catching up on things. Im off today and tomorrow and I have some of my friends coming over tonight for some beers and hanging out. Lately my other roommate Jason has got us all playing bridge. Have you played??? It gets really confusing when you bid but its a fun game. Ive been getting better at it. My mom finally sent me Uno cards, we played last night once James came over. We also ended up sucking him into bridge as well haha. Also in some good news, Ill be back visiting Florida in 3 weeks now. Im so excited to see me family and a few of my good friends. I can not wait to go shopping and spend some time on the beach.

Stay tuned! Ill have a few posts up today. Its my day to catch up and take new photos! I hope everyone else has been doing good!

Oh I also took a few photos of just myself, I put together a really awesome outfit.







Alright everyone! Xoxo!!

New York Fashion week!!

Hey everyone!!!
I work today, then Im going to a show to see one of Jame's bands. I shall be packing, and napping then Im off to New York Fashion week with Jessy Baum!!!

Catch you on the flip side!
XOXO!

I heart flamingos!

So a few posts back I introduced you all to the two flamingos in my room. On one of the 4 days off I had last week I got really dressed up at home and ended up taking some sweet outfit photos. I even curled my hair some and made a new pipe cleaner headband! Im in love with all the ones Ive been making.



My boss Kim really liked how I posed like the flamingo. I like it.








I just feel like both my makeup and hair were really on and nothing tops an outfit like a great smile.


Shes got legs! And she knows how to use them. (ZZ Top)


This was his favorite, and its mine too I have to agree... it took 5 photos before I got it just right.


All in all things have been good. Ive just been working a ton, no days off this week and the one day off Im heading to New York for Fashion Week with Jessy Baum and then I gotta be back in Boston to work Sunday and get tattooed later that night. Long week needless to say. At work we had out big midnight madness sale finally. Thank god thats over, it was really stressful getting ready for it, which sucked because it wasnt crazy busy at all. Sorry I really dont have to much to say tonight, my brain has pretty much shut down. Oh I finally got laundry done, that was a big deal for me hahaha, like any of you care lol. Well I hope everyone else is doing good and takin it easy.
Xoxo everyone!
