Yesterday and Today

Yesterday was my 23rd birthday.
My day included: classes from 8-12, lunch at mimi's cafe with and then seeing the vow with mom, going to dinner at claim jumper with my parents,  eating strawberry pie, opening gifts and watching the bachelor (and adding commentary...mainly about how much we can't stand courtney) with my mom and erin.
It was a nice relaxing and low key birthday.




FYI: i blew out all of the candles in one breath
and i don't like cake, so mom makes me pie instead

Today...it's Valentines Day
Normally i would dress more festively for this holiday (you know wear pink or red or something)
Somehow i woke up this morning and sort of forgot that it was valentines day. I mean it always comes the day after my birthday. I don't know what happened.
I got dressed for cold weather, not for the holiday. I was in dark colors, but then realized that looked kind of depressing. Just because i am single doesn't mean i dislike valentines day or that i am dissatisfied with my relationship status (or lack of). I decided i would wear a light color sweater instead of a black coat. I think it was a good choice.

On another note..
while in class today we were having a discussion about love, relationships, and well valentines day. The guys were sharing their opinions on these topics and i was quickly reminded why i am single and how much i love that.

Moving on...here is what i wore today


long sleeve white shirt: target, sweater: target, scarf: forever 21, jeans: american eagle, boots: soda

Dreary and Beautiful

I haven't posted in almost a week, which means i have some photos to share.
I wish i had a good excuse for not posting, but i don't. 
I even had some cute outfits this past week that went without documentation.
Here is what did get captured:
On Saturday....adventure to FIDM Scholarship store in LA to find a dress for the Valentines dinner at church this thursday
To go shopping i wore the outfit on the left.
First i tried the one on the right but decided it would
 be too much of a hassle when trying on clothes.
I narrowed my dress selection down to these two.
They were the same brand (Tadashi Shoji) and each cost $60.
You will have to stay tuned to find out which one i chose.

Today is kind of dreary but i find that weather great for photos.
