Blue & Lime

Hello there! Ahh the lovely weekend has come back around again, this time it's a three day one, which makes me VERYYY happy! Last night I had some drinks at the apartment, and watched "The Office" with Bob. His friend came over for for awhile, and he worked on our computer. It's been running slowly for a long time, and his friend is really good with fixing computers. I can see a difference today.That was really nice of him to do that for us. 
Yesterday my veil pattern came in! My mom's going to make my veil next month. I'm so lucky that she's very helpful, and a talented seamstress! Also a pair of heels came in yesterday. I ordered them as my possible wedding shoes...and, I LOVE them! They seem like they'll be comfortable, which is very important. They got a lot of good reviews online: a lot of people said they were comfortable. I think they're really cute too. I sent pictures of them to my bridesmaids, and they all liked them. So, I'm pretty sure I'll be keeping them! I might look at heels a little bit tomorrow at the mall, in the off chance I see anything I really love, but I doubt I'll find better ones, and at a good price. 
I hope we find our wedding rings tomorrow, as well as a bra for my wedding dress. I want to get those two things out of the way. I want to get as many items out of the way now as I possibly can. I don't want to be stressing at the last minute! I know the time is going to go really fast, the closer we get. It even sounds pretty close now, to say it's five months away.
Today I don't have many plans. Bob is going to his parents later on, to work on brewing beer with his brother. I'm going to clean the aparment, do laundry, work out, and call my grandmother. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, to go to the mall and movies with Bob. We're seeing "Nebraska."
In the pictures below I'm wearing one of my favourite casual outfits. I love the pairing of this shade of bright blue with lime green. And I adore this necklace! I wish I had more to wear it with. The colours are so exceptional in it, so nice and bright.

(Just Over) Five Months Left!

Hello there! I keep thinking about this upcoming three day weekend! Sunday Bob and I headed to the mall so we can look at wedding rings, I can look for bras, and also possibly shoes for my wedding! I have a pair of heels arriving this week as possible wedding shoes. Hopefully I like them. 
I made my hair appointment today for the day of the wedding. It's at eight a.m., nice and early ha. It's great because it's literally two minutes from where I live. I'll be going there for a trial run in about a month or so. I have to wait for my mom to be done making my veil, before I can go in for it. I also have to decide if I want to keep growing my highlights out, or make an appointment a little bit before the wedding to get blonde highlights. Decisions, decisions! I had nooo idea how many decisions were involved in planning a wedding!
I've been talking about the bachelorette party the past couple days with the bridesmaids. We decided to go Saturday, June 7th to Atlantic City, and stay overnight. I'm excited already!! I told them I wanted to go to AC, so we can hang out at the beach bars almost the whole time. I've only been to the beach bars there once, but I LOVED it. It's sooo nice to be right on the beach! And the temperatures will probably be perfect then! I went to the beach bars there when I went for a bachelorette party a year and a half ago. We went at the beginning of July. It was a lot of fun, there was music playing, and a decent amount of people. They also made this amazing drink at one of the bars! It was orange flavored, really sweet tasting. 
I can't believe my wedding is just over five months away!
In the pictures below I'm wearing one of my favourite shirts. I've had it for two years now. I love the pattern and the colours in it. I'm also wearing my new bracelet that came two weeks ago. It's my favourite bracelet now. Since the colours are pastel shades, it definitely doesn't match with everything in my wardrobe. I thought it went with my shirt enough to wear it. The shade of light blue in the bracelet and the shirt match almost perfectly, as well as the shades of green in both.

New Skirt, Heels, And Belt!

Hello there! Ahh, we're so close to Friday now. And not this weekend, but next weekend is a three day weekend! (MLK day.) Tonight I'm not doing much, just reading and watcing "The Office" with Bob. Tomorrow night we're going to a mall, and eating at Cheesecake Factory. I'm going to look for shoes for the wedding while we're there, and I think we're going to take a look at wedding bands, too. The wedding is only five and half months away now! It seems pretty soon, now that it's under six months.
Today three packages came for me! I spent the last of my Christmas money on these orders. I got a red dress and striped Jenny skirt from Pin Up Girl Clothing, three wide stretchy belts from Viva Dulce, and a pair of B.A.I.T. heels from Modcloth. The heels are black and cream, and they'll match with a lot! They're my third bair of B.A.I.T. shoes, and I just started buying them in December. I have my eyes on the red and cream ones next. 
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new striped skirt, new heels, and one of my new belts. I love wide, stretchy belts! I only had a red one and a black one before. The ones I got today are this blue one, a yellow one, and a pink one. I love how my new rainbow bracelet matches the skirt so well, and so does my favorite necklace! I just love wearing rainbow accessories. They make me happy.

New Jenny Skirt!

Hello there! Well, my trip to pick up my wedding dress got cancelled because of the expected freezing rain! I'm not happy about this. This is the second time my planned trip to get it got cancelled due to weather. My mom and I are now planning on going on Thursday, and so far the weather looks fine. But, who knows! And the shop only gives you two weeks to pick it up, from the time they call you. The shop is an hour from where I live. 
So, today is going to be quite the boring day, since Bob and I will be staying inside due to the rotten weather! I'll be reading, working out, and watching "The Office" and "The Newsroom" with Bob.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new Pin Up Girl Clothing striped Jenny skirt! I received it, along with a dress on Thursday. It's my second Jenny skirt. I LOVE the colours in the skirt, they're my favourite colours. (Well, except for the black.) I got 25% off that order, and also used Christmas money on it, so I didn't spend any of my own money, which was awesome! My pink, orange, and yellow necklace matches perfectly with the skirt. 
I just ordered a 50's style brooch from Etsy! I'm so excited for it. It's gorgeous, with great colours in it. The woman who makes these brooches is so talented, and has a great eye for beautiful pieces. It's coming from The U.K., so I will be very impatiently waiting for its arrival. It'll look so nice pinned on cardigans.

Snowy Weekend

Hello there! Yay, the weekend has returned. But, it brought with it snow, ugh. It started snowing sometime overnight, but there's hardly anything on the ground yet. We're supposed to get 6-10 inches by the time it stops on Sunday morning. I feel so bad for Bob, he'll have to do so much plowing, and won't really get to have a weekend. 
We're supposed to go over my great uncle's at 12 for his birthday, but not sure if we'll be able to. We were also going to have two friends over for dinner, but that got cancelled because of the weather. Seems like I'll be stuck inside most or all of the day and night, as well as a good part of tomorrow. So, today I'm going to bake cookies, clean the apartment, do laundry, read, watch TV, and work out. 
Only one more full week of work to get through before time off starts for the holidays! I'm very excited for Christmas. I found out yesterday that we can dress down Monday the 23rd, Thurs & Fri the 26th & 27th, as well as Monday the 30th. Normally we can only dress down on Fridays. But, I think they're doing this because so many people are off on those days. There's not going to many of us in the office.
In the pictures below I'm wearing one of my favourite shirts and necklaces. They both have so many colorurs in them, which makes me happy. The necklace I got at Modcloth over a year ago, and the shirt I ordered online a year ago.

You Fit Me Better Than My Favourite Sweater

Hello there! Today really tested my patience. Just had a bunch of irritating things happen, including some idiot going into my lane when there wasn't any room to, I honked when they started to go in, but they proceeded as if I didn't exist. I just had a feeling they were going to come into my lane, so luckily I was watching out for them. Otherwise we would've definitely hit. Not many things raise my blood pressure more than people driving recklessly.
Bob is making enchilladas tonight, so that should help cheer me up a bit! We hardly ever have Mexican, but I love it! I'm going to work out, do laundry, read, and watch "The Office" with Bob. 
I'm wearing my favourite sweater once again. (I wore it once on my blog before.) It's from Express, and I have it in three colours. This is my fav of the bunch though! I used to do most of my shopping at Express, but for the past year I haven't bought much there. I actually ran to the mall on my lunch break today to go to Express. I had seen a couple shirts online that I liked. But, of course they didn't have either one in the store.

Hello, Weekend!

Hello there! Today I'm doing my normal Saturday tasks of cleaning the apartment, laundry, and working out. Hopefully we'll look more into our honeymoon trip, and possibly book it this weekend. I already got the time off approved from work. I'll be out of work for two and a half weeks. I took a personal day the day before the wedding, then requested off the following Monday-Friday, plus the next Monday-Thursday. Then we have off that Friday for the forth of July! So, it worked out perfectly, to get another day off. I think we're going to leave for our honeymoon on Monday and come back on Wednesday the next week.
I'm also going to put out a few Christmas decorations today! I can't wait any longer. Bob and I are putting the tree up on Thursday night! I'm so excited. My apartment is going to turn into a Christmas Candyland. Ha! 
At least it'll be easier to go back to work on Monday, knowing that it's only a three day work week. Thursday I'm going to my grandparents for Thanksgiving. They live about five minute or so from me. Bob will be going to his aunt and uncle's house. Friday night we'll be going over my parent's house for dinner. My sister, grandparents, and family from Texas will also be there. And Saturday morning I'm going to a couple of gift stores with my mom and probably my sister.
In the pictures below I'm wearing an Express sweater I've had for three years or so. I also have it in a bright coralish shade. I really like cowl neck, side ruched sweaters like these. They tend to be flattering. I'm also wearing my new gingerbread house earrings!! I couldn't help it from wearing them already, ha. I mean Christmas is only a month and two days away! (Which is pretty crazy it's so soon, huh?!)
