Meet Milton!

I've wanted a Weimaraner for a loooong long time, and he's finally here! Well almost. He's a Weim mix. His mom is definitely a Weimaraner but his dad is a mystery, so I'm curious to see what he'll look like as he grows. I thought about buying from a breeder but I searched for a puppy to adopt first and found this little guy up for adoption from a Weimaraner Rescue in South Carolina. He's a little miracle puppy! Three of the five in his litter died. But other then a little kennel cough he is quite healthy (even a little chubby). I'm quite smitten with him. And I hope you are too because I won't be able to resist posting pictures of him constantly.

Well, Milton and I have to go now. We're studying for finals...

My first sponsor!

I wanted to introduce my very first sponsor Crazy Hot Clothes. Check out her shop, she has some really great vintage items! I love the Alice in Wonderland lace dress and the adorable Chunky floral dress.

The Upside of Wonder Feature

The lovely Amanda of The Upside of Wonder was kind enough to feature me as her May Blogger of the Month! Head over her blog to read a fun little interview. Thanks, Amanda!

Want some Cynthia Vincents?!

Sorry for my blogging absence...and that I still haven't fixed my archive photos! As I said in my last post, I'm crazy busy. (And I have even more busy stress-ness going on now...but it's really good! Expect a post on that sometime next week. I'm so excited about it!) Things will be back to normal soon, I promise.

In the mean time. I've got some shoes for you! I bought these Cynthia Vincent's at Target, but I really wanted the yellow or black since I recently bought some brown shoes (the Yellowboxes from my last two posts). Soooo, I'm gonna try and sell these ones! They are brand new and still have the tags on them. They are a size 9 - BUT I usually wear around an 8 1/2 (anywhere from an 8-9 depending on the brand, etc.) and these fit me perfectly. Obviously I've never worn them, but I have it on good authority that they are super comfy!

So, I'm going to try this out and see how it goes, and if it doesn't work out I'll throw them on ebay. I wanted to try this first so that if any of you were interested you wouldn't have to compete with all the crazy ebayers out there, but I have no idea how well this will work. Here's my plan. E-mail me with a "bid." I'll update the post as often as possible to let you know what the current bid is. (Thought - this could also be done via commenting, but I totally understand if people would rather bid anonymously. Commenting would just be more instant and easy for you all to see when I'm not around to update. Ultimately, it's up to you and I'll keep updating the current bid from both comments and e-mails as often as I can. Sorry if that was really confusing.)

Sound good?

I'm gonna go ahead and request a starting bid of at least $35 (barely enough to cover the cost). We'll work out shipping depending on where you live. Eh?

On a dreary Monday...

Sorry about the whole Photobucket issue - my archives are a mess right now! I need to transfer all my images to Flickr and edit all my posts at some point, but I'm swamped with schoolwork right now so that's gonna take some time. In the mean time, head to my chictopia, lookbook or weardrobe to see my past outfits!

Ok, onto today's outfit. This t-shirt and jeans combo is a good go-to for when I'm in a hurry or want to be comfortable. And it's easy to add accessories to (such as this big silly headband). Today I went with my trusty mustard scarf since it was a bit chilly/cloudy/rainy.

Alright, I'm off to write a paper (frooooown).

Socks vs. Toes

When I went to Urban Outfitters yesterday I bought these socks (for $1.99!) and some new nail polish. So my toenails were freshly painted and it was hard to decide whether or not I wanted to show off my toes or socks. As you can see, I went with socks. I figured there will be plenty of time for cute toes as the weather keeps getting warmer...but people might think I'm crazy for sporting socks in July.

Remember this dress? I've worn it as a shirt a few times. I told you here that you'd see me wearing it as a dress soon...but I really don't wear it as a dress that often. The more I look at these photos the more I think it is just kind of unflattering. What do you guys think?

These are the new shoes I mentioned. I figure they're the closest thing I'll ever get to these Jeffrey Campbell lovelies. (And way cheaper...)

As for the Cynthia Vincent's, I'm still determined to get my hands on some. More news on that to come.

It's been quite a while since my last post, and unfortunately that's the way it's gonna be for a while. I've got soooo much stuff going on right now, so blogging is getting pushed to the back burner for the next few weeks. I'll try to post/comment/read sporadically during this time and return to regular posting ASAP.

(I just realized these are the EXACT same colors I wore in my last post. I feel so boring...)

Lace and Chambray

This weekend was good but busy. As I mentioned in my last post, I saw David Sedaris on Friday night! He was incredibly funny. I mean, obviously his books are hilarious - but I can't believe how much funnier it is just to hear and see him reading. It makes me want to buy one of his audiobooks. If you are a fan of his and you ever get the chance to see him I highly recommend it! The event was a little pricey, but totally worth it. And if you aren't a fan of his yet then you need to go out and buy yourself one of his books! I'd recommend Naked, I've read most if his books and it's my favorite so far.

Saturday and Sunday I spent with my mom shopping and lunching and cooking and all sorts of fun stuff. I was searching for some spring/summer shoes (I don't own ANY wedge sandals?!). I finally found one pair, which I'm sure you'll see soon. I'm still dying to get my hands on these:

Cynthia Vincent for Target

I hope they make their way to my local Target soon!

Alright, back to finishing up Sunday night chores - homework, cleaning, and getting ready to start my new job tomorrow!
