It was so windy and bright when we were taking these pictures! But I love the huge lilac bushes in our backyard and I really wanted to take pictures in front of them. I've tweeted and instagramed photos of this dress a bunch of times already, but each time I wear it I forget to take blog photos in it! So here it is, the dress that I'm completely obsessed with. I got it for $4 at Goodwill a month or so ago. It's the prettiest vintage dress I have, and I honestly want to wear it every single day. It has pockets, and it came with a little tie that someone made for it (the fabric isn't quite the same pattern, but pretty darn close!). I love love love it, and it'll definitely be a summer wardrobe staple for me!

Chris and I are on our "weekend" now, so today we got a bunch of stuff done. We took his car into the shop early this morning, and then headed back to our area to run some errands. We ate lunch at our favorite little burger joint in town, and Chris tried their peanut butter and jelly chicken wings! They were surprisingly good, I thought they'd be gross but I tried the sauce and I actually liked it! And I'm a crazy picky eater :) After lunch we went to the post office. I wanted to open a PO box, but I had to hold off because I didn't have two forms of ID! Silly me. I'll most likely go back tomorrow and open it, so I'll be sure to add my address to my blog in case anyone wants to be penpals! (Just a warning, I'm not the most timely person in the world, my current penpals can attest to that!!)

We went to the mall after that because I wanted to pick up some Proactive. I'm really excited to try it, I'm so tired of having breakouts all the time! We also did a little shopping... Chris got a pair of shorts and I got a dress from H&M, and we got some loose tea from a place called Teavana. I don't really like tea, but I know it's good for you, so I'm trying to get into it! We went to Target to pick up some groceries, and I got allergy medication for the first time ever. I thought I had a cold for the last few weeks, but cold medicine hasn't been helping, so I'm trying out allergy medication out of desperation! I also got a new fun surprise for myself, but I'll share that with you tomorrow :)
Now we're eating pizza, watching tv, and I plan to crochet the night away! Perfect.

your dress is super duper adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteOooh you're dress is so pretty. I love it, and what a bargain!
ReplyDeleteI'm quite excited for your PO BOX address, I'm from the UK so it would be quite fun to have a penpal from a different country. It reminds me of when I was little... before email. haha.

That dress is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteP.S i love your hair :)
Ok that dress is super adorable. I have something similar but I love the tie around the waist it adds that special touch.
ReplyDeleteI love the dress, it is super cute and you wear it well. :)
ReplyDeletei hope you like proactiv, just don't sign up to have the monthly deliveries. They kept sending it to me even after it made my skin so painfully dry that I cancelled my membership. It didn't help my acne, but I had hormonal acne that couldn't be treated topically anyway. I take spironolactone now, that stuff is AMAZING!
ReplyDeletelove the dress! and your hair is always so cool - i love it!!!
ReplyDelete@Ashley: I got it from a kiosk at the mall because I've heard the stories about signing up with them! I hope it helps, I've never been to a doctor but i'm getting to the end of my rope!
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so pretty! I can see why you love it.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is super cute and looks great on you!
ReplyDeleteOoh I love that dress, what an awesome find!! Let me know how the proactiv ends up working out for you, I just started using the Neutrogena Advanced system a couple of weeks ago (so far my skin is better but not 100% clear) so I'll stick with that for another month or two.. but if no luck I'll probably try proactiv next!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is so cute! I love that dress!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! That's such a sweet dress.
ReplyDeleteProactive actually isnt that great for your skin....not to be nosy...but you should use dermologica...its a truly great product.
ReplyDeleteCute dress! Also proactive works REALLY well! I highly recommend it! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the outfit! :)
ReplyDeleteThe dress is super cute!
Your hair always looks so lovely too xx

love the dress and you really can't tell the belt was made separately from slightly different material. just a question, i don't understand what a PO box is?? how is this different than a regular mailbox? silly question maybe :-/

@rosieposie: A PO box is a locked box at your local post office where you can receive mail for a fee. That way I don't have to put my home address all over the Internet! I want to be able to send and receive mail with my blog readers, but I'm not totally comfortable putting my home address out there for everyone to see :)
ReplyDeleteFrom the photos, you'd think the belt originally came with the dress!
ReplyDeleteOdd food combinations are one of foodie guilty pleasures, lol!
