  • Sitting in the same row as the Filmmaker of a movie 
  • New music (Brand New, Fun, and Bright Eyes)
  • Beautiful weather
  • Helpful people at a Film Festival
  • Jana&Alexa
  • Buffalo Exchange

  • Alexa's table manners

Things That Are Terrible
  • Dallas streets!
  • Not getting tickets in time
  • Unknowingly heading into Oak Cliff
  • Cold movie theaters
  • Outlandish Quinceanera dresses
  • Confusing parking signs
  •  Being booted
  • Snarky men who have to take the boots off of your car
  • Slow waiters
  • Missing the movies you want to see
  •  Hot marinara sticks
  • Sweet Potato Fries
Definitely not a bad weekend!

Freedom Lies in Being Bold.




I've been feeling a little "blah" with my wardrobe lately, so I decided to mix a pattern with a bold color for some eye-popping action. I stole this shirt from my aunt's garage sale pile and have worn it many, many times since. (Looking at my closet, I may have developed an obsession with stripes...)

The skirt is a beautiful color but it has an awkward fit. It's a size larger than I normally wear, so maybe that's it, but it comes up past my bellybutton, weird, I know. In hindsight I should have tucked the shirt in and maybe worn a cute black belt to get rid of that "bulky"  look but at seven in the morning my brain just isn't functioning ;)

Also, what says hot, single, twenty year old college girl like some fierce feather earrings and a matching necklace? Peacocks may or may not have been harmed in the making of those earrings.
