Shoo-shoo Shoo-shoo Shoo-shoo Sugar Town

It's finally the weekend! Eeee! I'm so ready. I've got lots planned for this weekend. Tonight is my best friend's birthday, Happy Birthday, Jess! Then tomorrow it's work (yeah, not exciting I know) then I'm going to a soft opening of a restaurant/bar my dad invested in and I can't wait. Tons of our friends/family are coming in tonight to attend the opening and stay with us for the weekend. I love having a house full of fun people and a great big party to look forward to every night. These are the best kinds of weekends. What do all of you have planned for the next few days?







So today I'm wearing jeans, for only the second time on this blog, and probably on the second time in about 4 or 5 months. Wow, dang, I didn't even realize how long it's actually been. But lately, I've gotta say, I'm loving denim in all forms, including jeans. I've been lusting after several pairs of jeans, so you can expect to start seeing some more jeans on this blog because I'm sort of falling in love again, it's been too long. The blouse I'm wearing in this post, I bought back in January or February at F21 and then forgot about it. It's been sitting in my closet for months, tags still intact, just waiting for a spring day for me to pluck it off the hanger, rip off the tags and take it out. Unfortunately, I just completely forgot he existed. But I found him this morning and apologized and he agreed to forgive me as long as I wore him and posted him on the blog today. I decided to add some socks and opened toed shoes to make the outfit feel a little more exciting. It's funny how much I love this trend because if you had mentioned this to me about 6 or 8 months ago, I would've called you crazy. Now, I can't get enough of this. I'm buying socks like never before, and I used to HATE socks.

I was also pleasantly surprised as while I was waiting on my photos to upload, I browsed through a couple of blogs and looked at one of my favorites, Kaitlin of Buffalo Stance, and found that we're sort of outfit twins today. YES! High five to myself. She's one of my favorite bloggers and I love her style so I had to give myself a little pat on the back for being so Buffalo Stance-esqe in getting dressed today. Her outfit is sort of the edgier, risk-taking sister of my goody 2 shoes girly outfit. (And we have the same name, so super twins?)



Oh and one more thing before I go, have a lovely weekend! I'll do a big post on Sunday night or Monday about all the festivities. Au revoir!

Blouse: F21
Jeans: Thrifted (F21 from Buffalo Exchange, gotta love that.)
Socks: Shopping in Mom's closet
Wedges: Target (in reality, I stole these from my friend for a weekend and decided to never give 'em back, sucksss if she reads this.)

The title of my post, the song I've been listening to all day while doing laundry. Puts you in such a good mood. Have a listen! (Sort of She & Him sounding, no?)

I Actually Did It

Mark this day down on your calendars folks, I'm actually wearing jeans. (And not just while I'm freezing at an outdoor show, I took those jeans off immediately after entering the car.) I actually decided to wear jeans today for the car ride home from Austin and running errands with my sister before she goes back to school tomorrow. I can tell you one thing for sure: THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN OFTEN. I just don't like wearing jeans. Everyone finds throwing on a pair of jeans relaxing and comfortable, but I honestly feel more comfortable in a dress and tights than I ever do in jeans. Jeans make most people feel unrestricted but they're restricting to me and I don't feel like I can pull them off well enough as I can pull off a dress or a high waisted skirt or even a cute pair of shorts.

Anyway, enough of my rant. I must say, I am terribly sad to say goodbye weekend, as it is also goodbye Spring Break. I'm going back to working the weekend and not seeing my friends during the week. I guess that's just normal life, but I just get bored sometimes. This weekend was the best in a long time and I'm just sad to say it's over and go back to regular life.





Oh and one more thing! Say hello to my brand new shoes. I got them at Aldo over the weekend and I'm in love. They're so comfortable and cute, just get ready to see me wearing them with everything. Believe me, I will.
