Cute Jewelry

 Today we went to Kohl's. I didn't get anything, but I really liked their Lauren Conrad jewelry. Here are a few I liked...I didn't like the second necklace very much; they had one with the glasses like that that was a hairpin instead of a necklace, but I couldn't find a picture of it.

Hope you are all having a FABULOUS weekend! I put up the FAQ page...sorta. I need more questions....here's the link.

No Novelty Socks!

Yes...I tried it. It was not exactly wonderful. It was...strong. Like WAY too strong.

Well, I know this is short, but I just needed to tell you that right now my mother is looking at strange socks for my volleyball team. We've found some ones with things like flying pigs, cupcakes, ice cream, and a gator skin design (WEIRD!) on them. And now she's looking at ones with monkeys on them. I am only slightly scared. Oh, now it's a unicorn. OH MY, I AM TOTALLY TERRIFIED AT THE THOUGHT OF HAVING TO WEAR THESE! Our volleyball team is supposed to vote on what we want...PLEASE NO UNICORNS! AND I AM NOT AN ALLIGATOR! THEREFORE I SHOULD NOT BE WEARING GATOR SKIN!!!!

Hopefully my team has great tastes. Whatever happened to our plain neon socks? Hopefully nobody likes unicorns.

Or alligators.

But I know some of them DO like gators. OH DEAR!

Ok, this one may top them all - there's one pair with a MOOSE on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

There's some that look like a bucket of popcorn. And forget what I said about moose socks topping them all; there are some with GNOMES ON THEM!!!!!!!!!!! HELP ME! Stacy and Clinton (from What Not to Wear) would not approve! What were they saying about novelty socks the other day??!! Ok, I admit. I wear patterned socks INSIDE my shoes. They do not show. But do polk-a-dotted socks count as novelty socks? Do they? Great, they don't. I'm so glad you agree with me on this.


AHH, HELP, THERE ARE SOME WITH BIG FOOT ON THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


XOXO,

Summer Outfits

 I decided to do a little fashion post....here are some summer outfits I created that I <3.

Outfit One:

 

Outfit Two: 

 

 

I don't wear strapless, but other than that - and the price! - I love this dress! Not so sure about the scarf...

(Products from Anthropologie and Target.)

A Little Shower....

 Today we had a little shower. Actually, it was a very large shower. There was lots and lots and lots of thunder. There was a lightning strike around our house - I think it was across the lake (aka the drainage ditch, aka the retention pond, aka the canal - it's not a canal). After the rain, I ventured out with my camera.

 

 

Here are some pictures that have absolutely nothing to do with rain......

I love these earrings! People always say how cute they are (which, of course, makes me love the earrings).

 Striped Dress + French Manicure = AWESOME.

And this is totally off-topic, too, but I heard Justin Bieber and Michael Bublé in Kohl's the other day. I am not a Belieber and I don't have Bieber Fever (although my friend and I wrote about how we did on the sidewalk once). Just so you know.

Happy Monday! Please be amazing and comment and follow my blog. Thank you.

First *Official* Day of Summer

Hi!

Today it's officially summer. According to me, it doesn't have to officially be summer before it's summer. In other words, it seems like summer in April. And to kick of the season, it's pouring rain right now. How appropriate, right?!

Yesterday I had swim team. I have mixed feelings about swim team. Our coach enjoys torturing us with freestyle and flip turns. Oh, and let's not forget butterfly. We can't forget that. Butterfly is so amazingly hard - and that is an extreme understatement. So anyway, as I was saying, swim team was yesterday. It was not that hard (I mean, compared to the usual =). It was just me, my friend Kryn, and another girl (Alex). We talked a lot, trying to distract our coach so we wouldn't have to swim as much. We did a pretty amazing job, I have to say. He did make us do a bunch of push ups though. UGH. I think we did 21. That's 21 too many. And along with that we did more than 525 yards of freestyle (which isn't that much when you think about it). He always makes us do freestyle. If we could just do backstroke or maybe even some breaststroke, it would be better. It he would just mix it up a little...

And today I had band camp. I am learning the flute. Later today I have volleyball camp. Yes, I have a busy life. =)

Speaking of volleyball, I should probably be getting ready soon....

Here are some summery things for the first (official) day of summer. 

 GRR, IT CHOPPED OFF THE TOP PART OF THE PIC! Oh well.

Ok, I am really hating the font (on the photo below). =)

(I didn't take this pic; got it off of Word)

Have a great day and please follow my blog!!
