Hello there! Bob and I had a good time yesterday in Pennsylvania. Dinner was great, and then we went to the nearby casino, to cash out from the last time we were there. I had accidentally taken my ticket home with me before leaving last time. Of course since we were already there, we also hung out for a couple of hours there. We had some drinks, and Bob gambled a little.
Today I ran some errands in the morning, worked out, and now I'm just going to be relaxing. I also put photos from our wedding and honeymoon into a photo albulm.
Can you tell by my choice of outfit photos that I'm very excited for Spring?! Now that it's finally March, it seems more real that Spring is actually on the way; although it's currently snowing. There is light at the end of the tunnel! The dress I'm wearing is by Hell Bunny. I got it on sale from Hot Topic in the summer. I hadn't bought anything from Hot Topic in about ten years, ha.

Hello there! I'm so happy that this is the last day of February! I really can't stand January or February, because of the weather. Spring is 20 days away, and I am so excited. Winter is basically the bane of my existence, and I've always felt that way. Also, one month from tomorrow Bob and I are Las Vegas bound! Since we're in the final stretch now, it's going to be really hard to wait. It's going to be an interesting feeling to be somewhere (Viva Las Vegas) where I don't stick out like a sore thumb because of my style, but I'll actually blend in!
Today Bob and I are going out to eat at a restaurant in Pennsylvania, an hour away. We're going to a store in the same town too. It's the oldest book store in the U.S., and they always have really cute seasonal decorations. Hopefully they will have some Easter ones out.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new Bernie Dexter skirt. I really adore the print on the skirt! It is so perfect for BBQs, picnics, and summertime in general. But, that doesn't mean I won't wear it in other seasons too, ha. I'm also wearing one of my new Erstwilder brooches. I received three from Australia this week, from Estwilder's new American Diner collection. They are right up my alley!

Hello there! Tonight I'm meeting up with my good friend for a drink in town. Saturday Bob and I are going out to eat for an early dinner and drinks at a restaurant we both love, in Pennsylvania. We go there about once every two or three months. I always get the Bavarian pretzels with beer cheese soup dip. It's one of my favourite meals, ever.
In the pictures below I'm wearing a dress I got from Modcloth a couple of years ago. I wore it for Easter that year; I think the colours are perfect for Easter. I don't have too much pastel clothing, but I do love this dress. My new lavendar Iones match quite perfectly with the purple in the dress. When I first ordered them, I wasn't sure how much I had in my wardrobe that would match them well, but I've been finding a decent amount that matches them, luckily.

Hello there! Not too much going on today, I'm going to work out, read, and relax. I listed a couple more items on eBay (bristolp15 is my eBay shop), and I'm ordering more wedding pictures! I ordered a wedding photo albulm yesterday, so I'm excited to put the pictures in it. I already have a lot of pictures framed in our apartment.
I'm also going to watch the Oscars pre-show tonight, and probably most of the Oscars themselves. Bob is out plowing. He woke up at 6 a.m. to go out, and probably won't be back until the early afternoon.
In the pictures below I'm wearing a Trashy Diva Varga dress. I also have it in red. I bought them both when Bob and I were in New Orleans last Summer for our honeymoon. I don't often wear paler shades of colour, like the shade of this dress, but it can be pretty difficult to find brighter yellow dresses in the style I like.

Hello there! Happy weekend! We are going to get hit with another snow storm today/freezing rain & ice. UGH! Bob and his dad are going to have to salt & plow, so his family won't be coming over for dinner tonight like we had planned. I'll just be doing my normal Saturday routine of cleaning, laundry & working out. Definitely won't be going anywhere tonight, due to the weather.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my new Hell Bunny poppy dress, from the Spring 2015 line. I hardly have any florals in my wardrobe, in fact this is only my third floral piece. I really love the print, the colours, and the shape of the dress. I didn't have any off-shoulder dresses before this one. I can wear it with a cropped cardigan to work. Maybe if I keep wearing my Spring-y looking outfits (especially the florals!) it will usher in the season?! *Wishful thinking!*
In the first picture below is a new Trashy Diva dress that someone took a picture of in a window display. I need this dress! I don't own any TD dresses in the Honey style. I really like how the top part of the dress is solid red, and I love all the colours in the dress! I don't own any Asian prints, and I think this one is lovely. I also love that shade of blue. I hope it hits the website soon.
It's been so long that we have been stuck in this artic/polar freeze, that it's so hard to remember what it felt like to NOT be constantly freezing, even with multiple layers. It's 6 degrees outside, and that's not factoing in the windchill. I've always hated Winter, but these past two Winters have been extreme (record setting) in cold and snow and ice, and it's really giving me the itch to move south. Now, if only I could convince my husband! (We've been married eight months today, by the way!)

Hello there! We are still in the grips of a deep freeze here. I've had about as much as I can take of this. Spring is a month away, but right now I'd settle for temperatures that are more than twenty-five degrees! I wouldn't be happy with that ha, but it'd be better than what we have now.
Tomorrow I'm going to Panera for dinner with my good friend. We haven't gone there in about a month, so I'm pretty excited to be going! I always get broccoli cheddar soup with bread. Saturday night Bob's family is coming over for dinner, and Bob's making us quesadillas. I haven't had them in awhile, so I'm really looking forward to it. He makes them better ones than I've had anywhere else, too.
In the pictures below I'm wearing my newest Hell Bunny skirt! I ordered it from a website in England, and very eargely waited its arrival. It came yesterday, and I immediately put it on. The colours are nice and bright, and I just adore it. I'm usually pretty picky when it comes to cherry prints, but I really like how this is different than most cherry prints, because of the gingham background and also the size of the cherries; they're quite large. I'm really loving the Spring 2015 Hell Bunny line. Not all of it is available yet, but I've seen a lot of previews online. This is my second piece, and I have a dress on the way.

Hello there! We got more snow yesterday/last night, so Bob is out plowing now. We have been getting weekend freezing rain/snow for probably about five weekends in a row now. I'm going to work out, read, and watch TV today, and then Bob and I are meeting my family for dinner at a restaurant for my grandfather's birthday.
In the pictures below I'm wearing another Modcloth Bea & Dot brand dress. Two posts ago I featured pictures of my Modcloth Bea & Dot pennants dress. This dress is tight in the bust, and you can see the buttons are gaping somewhat, but it wasn't so bad that I wanted to return/exchange it. I can't wait to receive my brooches from the ErstWilder diner line; they're going to match this dress so perfectly!! There's a Bea & Dot dress I'm looking at on eBay, and it's for a good price. I may have to snag it! It's the same size as this dress, and also has buttons and a collar, so I'm sure there will be gaping as well, but hopefully it won't be any tighter in the bust than this one.
