Hello there! Yesterday I went shopping in Pennsylvania with my mom, about two and a half hours away. We went to a few shops that sell holiday decorations. The first stop is my favourite. It's a small shop run by a husband and wife. They handmake everything they sell, and they do vintage reproduction. They are very talented artists. In the pictures below are the items I got. I also got a small feather tree (not pictured) to hang Easter eggs from. They are a rare breed; I asked my mom if she knows of anyone else who makes items like they do, and she said no. They even sell their products to catalogs. The really great thing is they are very reasonably priced. My mom and I have been going out there twice a year. We'll be going again in September/October. Can't wait to see the new Halloween & Christmas items they have then! And last night Bob and I went to his parent's house to celebrate his dad's 60th birthday. As much as I like relaxing weekends, it's also nice to sometimes do fun day trips.
Today I'll be cleaning, doing laundry, working out, and packing some more. After work tomorrow I'm meeting my grandmother and my mom at Panera. My grandmother is flying back tonight from California; she's been there since the beginning of October.
I really love the shirt I'm wearing in the pictures below. I want it in a bunch of colours, to pair with my skirts. It's cheap too, $22.50, from Le Bomb Shop. I'm hoping to pick some up at Viva Las Vegas!

Hello there! I'm so glad the weekend is here. It's supposed to snow today, which is really annoying, because yet again Bob will have to go out and salt/plow, probably on Sunday morning. Today I'll be cleaning, doing laundry, running a couple errands, and working out. Bob's going to cook my favourite dinner tonight, tomato tart. (It's very similar to pizza.) We're going out to dinner tomorrow night with my family for my grandfather's 75th birthday. I didn't want to go out out to eat two nights in a row, and also Valentine's Day is so crazy busy at restaurants, it's just not much fun to go out to eat when it's like that. He surprised me with a Bath & Body Works gift card, which is great because I had just run out of my B&BW lotion. They have the best lotion.
I'm SO glad February is half over. I just do not like January or February. I hate how fast time flies, except when it comes to January and February. I always want them to be over right away. They are just so miserable, weather wise. Also, now that we are half way through February, it's a month and a half until we got to Las Vegas!! I've of course been thinking of outfits to bring already. It's going to be such a neat experience to go to Viva Las Vegas, and see thousands of girls with similar style to me. No one around where I live dresses anything like me.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my Steady Clothing space print skirt. This is the only item I have of this brand, and I really love it. I think the print is super cute and kitschy.

Hello there! Tonight I worked out, and am doing laundry. I'm going to watch the new "American Horror Story" episode at 10. Of course, Bob is usually at his friend's house Wednesday nights, and I get a little frightened watching the show! I think I'm going to start ordering Christmas gifts this weekend; I'm so excited to do that! I also love buying Christmas cards, well I like buying cards for any occassion. Papyrus brand makes the best, most beautiful cards! They are quite pricey, but I think are worth it. Target carries a large selection of them, which is great.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new Steady Clothing Space Cadet skirt, and my new Christmas Luxulite brooch. The both came in the mail today. I had never bought Steady Clothing brand before. I had seen this skirt on Instagram and blogs for awhile now, but ever since I first looked for it online, it was sold out everywhere. They had plus sizes on the website, but that was it. I love how full it is! Nothing beats a high-waisted, full skirt with an awesome print! I received an email a couple of weeks ago that Steady Clothing's website had restocked the skirt in all sizes, and I snatched it up right away. In person the shade of red is darker than it appears online, but that's okay. I like how big the print is. It's a little big in the waist, but not enough to bother exchanging.
I love my new Christmas tree Luxulite brooch! It's so adorable. I love Christmas-y clothes and accessories! I now have two Luxulite Christmas brooches. Katy is always coming up with such adorable designs.
