Kitchen Photos

It hasn't been too bad getting dressed this week, however, I have found that we don't really do that much, so actually taking interesting pictures is out. They have been in the kitchen the past three nights. What can I say, we don't have exciting weeknight lives.

As another note, we got the deed to the house and my official title after my name was, "a married woman." So apparently we're back to the 1800s when women couldn't own land without a man around to help. I've decided there's more feminist in me than I originally thought.

So this is my relaxed pose, but I just look weird and contorted. I guess I'll have to work on the posing. My sweater is from Gap (on sale!), skirt is Old Navy, and sandals are Saltwater. I always wear the same type of jewelry, in either gold or silver depending on the outfit. I have three rings for my right hand, my wedding ring (I have one in silver and gold) and one other band, a watch, earrings, and necklace. I'm lazy with jewelry, I just know what I like.

Rainy Days and Mondays (or Tuesdays)

It rained all day Tuesday, so there wasn't much point of going out, but I still got ready. I am stickign with this plan. Polka dots felt appropriate and I do love a good pair of gold oxfords.

Pants are from Walmart (I love a deal), shirt and shoes are both from Forever 21.

I also have to keep reminding Chase to get the whole outfit, he doesn't always appreciate how the shoes pull it together.

Enjoy the rest of the week and stay dry if the rain keeps coming.

In Memoriam

With a day off for Memorial Day, we woke up to have breakfast for my dad's birthday at Original Pancake House. Followed by a day of buying lawn mowers, pasta, and watching The Game. Since it was a holiday and I didn't get too dressed up, you get only the quick shot at the end of the day. I did get dressed, that's the important thing.

Shorts are from The Limited, sweater is from Old Navy, and sandals are Saltwater.

I hope everyone enjoyed Memorial Day, was able to visit those who passed, or spent time with those who are still around.

Back to work tomorrow.

Sunday Development

After a busy week and weekend, Chase and I decided the best thing would be to go to church, go for a walk, then shut ourselves in for the rest of Sunday to watch the newly released season of Arrested Development.

I only wore this outfit for three hours, but I quite enjoyed the results. Zebras and bright pink, always a classy match. The shirt is Forever 21, the skirt is H&M, the shoes are Steve Madden (and sparkly), and the hair is a result of sitting around the fire last night and not showering. Shh don't tell.

Fashion Week

Working from home has its advantages and disadvantages. One disadvantage I've noticed is my inability to get ready for the day. If something is planned and we have to go out, I get ready, other than that, no need to put on clothes, make-up, or do my hair. Well, this week will change that. I've made it a goal to get dressed and ready to go every day.

I started with Saturday and because I've been watching a lot of Sons of Anarchy, this is my tough-look. I also wanted something comfortable because we were having a barbecue with friends at the new house that night, so a stretchy skirt and Dylan shirt was just the thing. The skirt is from Love Culture, the top from Target, and the sandals are Saltwater (which were not pictured). My hair is done by letting it dry and not doing anything else to it.

Our house is a very very very fine house.

Well, we are now homeowners!







We got a house in the Cottonwood Heights area (south of Murray and Salt Lake). Chase grew up in the area and he was happy to find a house in a good neighborhood in this area. We are incredibly happy with the house and are now just moving in and getting the little things in order.
