A special day and an even more special thank you!

Today is my 25th birthday. Wish I was celebrating but instead I am taking finals (wah wahhh). But I got to celebrate for about 10 birthday’s worth this weekend. It was amazing, I have the best friends ever.

If I have time to take a break today, I’m going to go out for a quick dinner with a very special boy. Fingers crossed.

And THANK YOU special blogging friends for helping me reach 100 followers. It was my goal to hit that before New Years, and instead its a little birthday present. So thank you for being so fabulous and supportive and amazing.

what is your girly style?

nicole at sketch42 had such a fun idea this week… to use images to define your own personal style. so i started to think, what is my style? its traditional but contemporary. its glamorous but liveable. one word that kept coming to mind was feminine. but feminine can be defined about 1,000 different ways. so while i perused some of my favorite images from last month’s rue i realized that almost every image i pulled could be defined as girly or feminine.


pink, with pops of color and a retro vibe?

vintage, soft pink?

tufted, metallic, floral glamor?

simple, clean with subtle femininity?

in your face, hard rock girliness?

or muted romantic?

what kind of girly do you like? or do you hate it all together?

i think if i lived alone my answer would be different, but with a picky boy in the house, my answer is subtle pops of femininity. im allowed some pink. and very few florals. but im getting there.
