Tattoo Wednesday. BAD VILLE

With last week being my birthday I missed out on Tattoo Wednesday, but to make up for it this week, I have a really good one to share with you.
Today's tattoo is my Bad Ville tattoo I got a few weeks ago. There were 19 people that have that tattoo at the time, I believe number 19 was just getting hers as Adam was talking me to about getting one. I would be number 20. So Adam gets a hold of me and I just walked down to the tattoo shop and had Johannes bang out Bad Ville number 20.

While I was at the shop, there was a photographer from Stuff taking pictures. He wandered into the bar and some how there were about 10 of us at The Behan that had a Bad Ville tattoo. We all hoped over to the tattoo shop and had a group photo taken. The issue of Stuff Magazine finally came out last week and our photo is awesome!

If you havent picked up a copy yet, get on it! Its a really cool issue in general. Photos taken all through out Boston. There are now 21 Bad Ville tattoos.

**Note. I found out tonight, September 1st, that there are 27 people with the Bad Ville tattoo now**

Rainy day greys

So I ended up getting th day off somehow... on a day I work a double. Its quite unheard of. After I found out I didnt have to go anywhere I just decided to lounge around today. I felt bad about not blogging if I was just sitting around. Today's rainy day grey outfit consists of an over size grey shirt/t-shirt dress, with a flowy cardigan, and cozy over the knee socks. I thew on my long eye glass necklace for a gold pop of color.

There is no need to sit around at home and not look some what stylish. I love all different shades of one color. On rainy days like this I like to wear lose flowy things and just relax. No need to wear high wasted shorts and be uncomfortable while sitting around. I might go up to the Behan later, all Ill throw on are my rain boots and grab my purse. Enjoy my lovely readers! Xoxo!

Birthday Dress: #23

Thursday the 11th I turned 23. Its not like 23 is a big deal year or anything but I am getting older. I talked to all my family, I got birthday packages from Florida! Ended up having the day off from work so I just took my time and went shopping and slowly got ready for my evening. I have always been a fan of really dressing up for your birthday.

This was my birthday dress when I was 4.

Well, its been 19 years since that. This was my birthday dress at 23.

Needless to say Ive totally toned it down from princess crowns and pink. I was originally going to wear my electric blue all sequins dress, but it was just to flashy for 10 Tables. I ended up going with my back up plan dress I bought at Revolve Clothing Exchange in Tampa, FL. I paid $60 for it which I know is ridiculous and I would never really do that all the time. Its the prefect 1960's mod dress.

I felt the need to buy new shoes for the evening and I went out and bought these high babies from Forever21.

I also bought these amazing fringe earrings that was $3.60. Im all about Forever21's cheap jewelry.

John took me to 10 Tables, for my first dinner there. I have been dieing to go for months. My friend Peter was so kind to make my birthday experience there ever so lovely. Dinner was delicious and John looked very handsome. I had a very lovely birthday dinner with him. At midnight before all that I was hanging out at the Behan with my friends and that was a lot of fun. Exactly what I wanted to do. I did miss having a birthday cake with my family, but Im a big girl now haha.
Xoxo.

Back to the Secret Garden.

I have been very busy lately with work I really havent had much time to blog. I am making a lovely come back with these beautiful photos taken today in the secret garden. I bought this amazing vintage cream lace dress and knew I just had to go back to take photos in it. I was ready to hop the fence... but I found another entrance! My birthday was Thursday and with some of my birthday money I finally went and bought a wireless remote for my camera. Um... makes taking photos way more easy!!! I dont know why I havent bought one sooner. This dress was $6 at Goodwill.

I didnt want to wear a lot jewelry, my great grandmother Kay's necklace was the perfect piece for the dress. My mom has held on to it for years, but I convinced her to let me hold on to it, and I have proven to her I get much use out of it. I wear it a lot.

August has been flying by! I have been hanging out at The Behan a lot lately, enjoying the company of my friend in Jamaica Plain. Work has been crazy lately. I get out so late, then its such a trip back home, I dont get home till 12/12:30 some nights. The last thing I want to do it sit on my computer for hours. I just want to sit and relax and listen to my records. With that being said... I am not happy with myself for going this long with out a blog post. John and I have been having a really good time together. For my birthday dinner he took me to 10 Tables, and it was just ever so amazing. I have been painting again and working on other things I have on the side. I hope everyone else has been doing well! Ill be updating more later this weekend! Xoxo!
