books.

are you a big reader?

i'm not.

but i love pictures.  love.  don't know about you but mine are all jumbled around on our external hard drive, my computer, my phone, my camera, through instagram, costco, picasa, kodak gallery, snapfish.  i've been meaning to put together photo albums for years now because what's the point of having digital copies all over the place without easy access to my favorite snapped moments.  but i've never been inspired by any of the products out there.

then i stumbled upon artifact uprising via oh joy and i'm obsessed.  it's a major project to build these books because i'm going to want to treat each picture and then work the layout and etc.  but for a lovely sunday, it might be a project worth endeavoring.

jenni.

have you always wanted jenni kayne shoes?  i have.

so these are on sale and i'm going to buy one or the other.  because i can't afford both.

i'm leaning towards the copper evening slippers because they are pretty funky fresh.  the tuxedo slippers are a bit too stuffy.

ok.  thanks for helping me make my decision.

attempted.

this was my attempt at a high falootin' fancy hair style.  it turned out to be more of a bun than a braid even though there was a braid up in there somewhere.  oh wells.

*i tried.*

braids.

only one of these comes with a tutorial.

where can i find how to do the other two?  gahhh.

help me.

damn.

we're going to a black tie wedding this weekend.  i'm not sure what that means except it sounds pretty fancy.

my hubs would never sport a bowtie.  but these guys look so hot.  can you wear a bowtie/ dress shirt combo with just a regular suit?  or does it have to be a tux?  see.  i have no idea.

i'm in my own personal dressing conundrum. 8 months pregnant means 'balloony' no matter how you slice and dice it.  i'll let you know how i end up styling myself and the 40 pounds i've gained.  it should be interesting.

versace.

omg what?  never would i have thought versace could take space in my closet.  but i'm feeling these beauties.

the print dress is my least favorite but i still wouldn't turn it down.

is versace coming back down to earth?  or did i miss something.  what's happening.
