And this is why the Boyfriend doesn't take my pictures...

 Dress: Urban Outfitters (similar and similar for $20 each) / Earrings: from a friend (similar, similar) / Bracelet: Vintage, inherited from my Nana, made in Siam / Sunglasses: Target

And this is why the Boyfriend doesn't take my outfit photos....
Me: Would you mind taking some photos of my new haircut and outfit real quick?
Him: Sure!
*Outside* *snap*snap*snap*
Him: Ok, here you go!
Me: Ummm...where's my outfit?
Him: Oh. I thought it was...for the haircut?

I'm always a bit jelous of those bloggers whose boyfriend/husband/significant other takes their photos with professional-grade quality. Me and my tripod are doing just fine, but the versatility they get out of their pictures is enviable!

Apparently, it'll have to stay that way, because the Boyfriend, bless his heart, isn't Mr. Professional Photographer Man. But I do kind of like these photos! Don't you just love how your hair looks right after a haircut? I can never get it to look quite as good after...

Hope you're all having a good week!

Sun and Shades

I love getting clothing as gifts. Clothing given as a gift often leads to me owning something I might have passed over in a store on my own. See: this dress. I own very few brown things (purses and shoes aside, this dress is the only brown thing I own), I don't think brown looks that great on me, and I probably wouldn't think twice about this dress in a store. But, as a gift? Turns out I like it!

Hope you are all having a lovely week.
