Asymmetrical and angular.

Angular
I can't quite make up my mind about this dress. On one hand, I love the colors and length, and the top is interesting, but on the other hand I feel like I'm wearing a hospital gown. Or not so much a gown, I guess, but it reminds me of a hospital because it makes me think of these blankies they give to newborns. But whatever, I still like it!

Last night I tried the no-heat curl thing that's been making the rounds in the blog world. I watched this video, and the girl in it is just the cutest! It worked pretty well, a little too well actually! It's very curly, and maybe it's just because I haven't been curling my hair lately, but I feel like I have totally crazy hair today. I'm weird, if my hair is big in a vertical sense I'm totally cool with it, but if it's big in an --outward-- sense I hate it!

Today I have a few crafty things to catch up on (like making pillows for my nephew's nursery!), and I want to check out some different thrift stores in the area. I didn't realize it, but right down the street from one of the Goodwills I go to is a huge Salvation Army! I'm excited to check it out :)

Did you see my lovely sponsors over there --->? They're some of the sweetest girls ever, and I'm so excited to have them here! I'll be back in a few days with an introduction post so you can get to know them a little better!

  2. that Salvation Army is new to that location.... its been there for a about 6 months now, it used to be directly across the street with the car wash. The new one is AWESOME, bright and organized! (the old location was none of those things).

    Found a pair of Miu Miu boots there a few months back.

  3. I like the dress, I'd say if the sleeves were shorter it would look better but that's just me. What's this no heat curler? That sounds great!

  7. I think your hair looks super cute! The dress is a great pattern and the colors and awesome. Maybe if you altered it by making it a boat neck or a v-neck you would feel less hospitaly in it. lol
