kissing fireflies on the beach
I wish I could say I own these two beautiful garments. But, sadly I don't. I'm rather lucky to have been chosen by weardrobe as they debut "their closet".. It's a whimsical idea, where they allow you to select from an array of garments that they'll send to you. For Free! No lies! The only unfortunate thing is that you'll fall in love, and after a week, you'll realize you have to send your love back, but think of it this way, you get to spend the most wonderful week with your love, so it's kind of okay that you have to send your love away(your love being... clothes!) So after, a full week with my weardrobe items I must send them back. For now, I selected this top, and they sent me the skirt as an additional item!

I have to say, if it wasn't for the closet, I would have never envisioned myself draped in the DOLMAN top from urban outfitters. It never stood out to me on their website, or their catalogue, but after spending hours playing with it. I now, realize, that yes, this top is the chicest and coolest thing since butter on toast.

I love you weardrobe. I love you. You make my dark days brighter, and my sunny days sunnier. And as for you, my blogger friends, I thank you. I'll always be thanking you, and thinking of you when theres a turn in the weather. You make me feel hope. You make me feel deserving, and all I've ever wanted in life is to feel and be deserving. I can say with my whole heart that I'd be so sad without you. Even when I'm as pale as I am, and I can't catch a break, you make me feel like I am tanned. (I hope you can read through my cheesy lines.)

Lastly, here are I have all three necklaces from Aldo draped around my neck, and my brown eyes see through my new heart-shaped sunglasses..... I'll be rockin these aaaaalllll summer. (.. did I just say rockin?!)

Good morning to the Sun, to the white fluffy clouds, to the trees that sway in the light breeze. This is the outfit I danced around in yesterday to pick up a package at the UPS store. These wedges make me 4 inches taller, and 4 inches fiercer! I had a little taste of what it must feel like to be tall. I towered 2 inchs over every person I met. These pants are Forever 21, I picked them up thanks to Weardrobe's $50 gift card!! I wish I had adjusted the bow on the pants properly before snapping photographs. They really are made beautifully, and drape with the perfect length when your wearing your favorite wedges. The sun is still shining today, and I can't wait to float on the clouds! :)

70 comments?????!?!? Am I dreaming? Is this really happening?!!!! I wish you could see the HUGE smile on my face right now and I wish you could the wonderful thoughts that came to my head when I read through all of your comments. I can't wait to reply and thank you all for being soOOo sweet. Also, thank you everyone for your suggestions on jewelry. I ended up heading to Aldo Accessories and left with more than I came with. Three necklaces that make my heart skip beats, and a pair of $12 sunglasses that I can't wait to show you! I almost convinced myself to buy this lovely chanel knock off purse, but it was still $50 so I cried and left.

I hope everyone has a day full of love, hope, birds and the sunshine. "it's the time of the season".... XOXO!

...There's no measuring of it, as nothing else is love...
I love my new home. The birds chirp every morning, and sing a lovely melody. It's the kind of house you like to get lost in, and go on adventures. I awoke this afternoon feeling tired, yet happy. I have been catching up on so much sleep lately, and yet I'm still yawning? ....

I saw an old man walking by the local church behind my house. He was wearing a striped fedora, and gray worn trousers. He looked so kind. I wanted to say hello and invite him for tea, but I'm far too shy and paranoid to ever do such a thing...Doesn't that stuff only happen in the movies, anyways? On another note, I'm on a quest. A quest to find the perfect collection of necklaces. Even before I became interested in fashion, I had always been interested in necklaces. Tomorrow, I'm heading to the local mall and browsing for necklaces. Any suggestions? What is your favorite store to stock up on jewelry (preferably inexpensive)?... thanks again and again!

SO today.. I put on my bold red lipstick, flipped my hair, and walked out the door ready to take on the world. I hope you, too, can put on your red lipstick, flip your hair, and feel pretty. One last thing, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FOLLOWING & COMMENTING! every single one of you brightens up my day, and keeps me warm inside. My love is sent to you, always, XOXO!

I need a home for my hands and my head..

I'm in Grande Prairie, still, but now I am glued together in a downtown hotel wearing my hair in a bun and dragging myself around in yoga pants. The good thing about being wedged in the corner of a hotel, is that I finally have the time for blogging and chattering. The recent weeks have been headache heaven, and sweat city. I knew that moving our house was going to be very hard. I knew we were going to be busy, but, I never anticipated so much stress. Boo! I've hardly caught a breath. We had so many things in our home that needed packaging, and tape. Not only did it take forever to pack, but, there was so much to be dealt with. New keys, old keys, garage door openers, papers to be signed. All I can say is, oophta! Thank god it's over. I am so exhausted. I want you to know that I have very very much missed my blogger friends, and my daily fashion doses.

Time to get caught up on all things fashion-y! I am very much looking forward to this coming week.. I'll finally have the time to get back into the fashion atmosphere. I'll have the space to style new outfits. And I'll also have the time to take outfit photo's more often!

Who knew two star hotel photo shoots could be so much fun?! (I hope no one was peeking through their doors while these were being taken, how shy!)...

kiss kiss! enjoy your sunday xoxoxxxo
p.s i'll reply to comments, and emails on monday.. can't wait to read through your beautiful words. oh, and, can someone teach me how to talk to boys? thanks! xo :)

As I type this, I'm sitting at the top of the balcony in my new house. I'm looking down onto our future living room and dreaming of paint, pastels, and picnics. I cannot wait until we make this house into a home. This white house puts my spirits into a mood of optimism and delight.

I have a plethora of photographs, I know I promised I'd take less, but make one last exception will you? I have been so enthusiastic about the new house that these hands have been happy to take pictures every second possible. Since there are so many photographs, I'll save the conversation for later. We're still not fully settled , we have to go(regretfully) back to Grande Prairie tomorrow to pack the rest of our belongings. It's going to be a long, long, loooonnnng week. I am so looking forward to the day that I can be the slothful, carefree, and lazy Amy that I used to be! xoxoxoxo kiss kiss :) cheeeerie cheerioooo o

What was golden went gray, And I'm suddenly shy.

Hello! I am so tired, tired, tired. Not only do I feel physically drained, but emotionally too. I can't explain, or reason, why I feel so low. I just feel like a big yellow balloon that's been deflated. I hate feeling sad. There is no reason to feel this way. Life is really good. Everyone has been kind. I'm finally getting what I've wanted, and deserved, but I just can't shake this mood. Maybe it's that age old "sibling rivalry" thing but I feel awfully jealous of my brother. He gets everything he wants. He gets the parties, the friends that call you, the family that's proud of you. Everything. What do I get? Lots too, but not what I want I guess. I want the friends who call, the parties, the opposite sex chasing after me. But what can I do? I can't possibly expect to make friends sitting at home all day, now, can I?

I am tickled by the fact that people who read my blog have told me that I set their spirits high, and I certainly wouldn't want to bring them down today. We all have our blue days! Today is mine, but I will not be a blue bird for long. I'll fly high again soon, I always do.

Better, cheerier, news, I finally got to go to FOREVER 21!!!!!!!!!! Yeah baby! It was heaven. Racks, and stacks, and piles of clothes, so gracefully draped over my fitting room as I pulled on hats and skirts and blazers and shirts. I ended up leaving the store with 6 things, a $16 blazer being one of them, and a two dollar blouse that I wore today. All of the garments are so beautiful. I cannot wait to show you! Once again, my love is sent to weardrobe, without them, this heavenly forever 21 trip would have never happened.

The wind is blowing wildly again, and my head is spinning. I'm going to lie down, work on a special post for chictopia(as I had promised them)(which i'm very excited about) and read...I have one tall Arizona Iced Tea, so my night can only get better.. I love you all so very much, so much so that I took this picture of a heart-shaped cloud just for you. I hope one day you will see a floating heart in the sky, and when this happens, take a picture, think of me :) xoxoxo

p.s
(sorry for so many photo's, my camera takes too many, i'm trying to learn to take less! hope you don't mind having to scroll through.. :))

my my hey hey, rock and roll is here to stay.

Here is the debut of my value-village thrifted sun hat. I had been on the look out for a sun hat, and one day, it came to me. Also, here, is the debut of little bird. I feel like a tanager when I wear this dress. I also feel earthy, and real. It's nice to feel this way.

The heat that radiates from the sun has me longing for festivals, and music. I love life when the sun is shining. So shine on sun, shine on! I just came to the thought that for someone who hates conversations about the weather, I sure talk about it a lot. The worst thing about the sun is the heat rays that attack your skin when you can't find sun screen... yeah... I'm a little red today. Luckily, it's only my arm that's burnt... I feel so terrible. It's not like me, I swear! I usually lather my face with white goopy sunscreen, but we all mistakes, erm, right? :) .. It was such a beautiful day for watching some baseball down at the park. Tomorrow is another full day of baseball. I wish I could stay for longer, but, I have to go grab some water and catch up on my book. I'll talk to you soon :) xoxoxo

Lastly, Thank you EVERYONE for being so supportive and heavenly kind. I wouldn't be me, if I didn't have all of you. I send you my best wishes, and kisses !!!!! :) :)
