Super 8 Super Date

Good morning everyone! What a seriously beautiful day. I have nothing planned, and nothing to do, and I am looking very forward to sitting by the pool at our apartment and soaking up the sun, and reading.

Last night Nathan and I saw Super 8. Have any of you seen it? It's pretty cool. I never see chick flicks in the theatre anymore now that I'm married. It's all teh smae to me really, I don't really care for chick flicks, except for you know, the really good ones, like Pride and Prejudice, Emma, pretty much any Jane Austen book made into a movie, or just about any musical (for the record, I liked the first Producers with Gene Wilder better than the second). Not to knock Matthew Broderick, he was great in the movie version of The Music Man. ANYWAYS!!! Nathan took me on a date to a non-chick-flick last night, which I enjoyed. If you're going to see it, just know, it's the kids that make the movie. They are hilarious, and great little actors (not like the kind you see on TV).

This is what I wore on our date. It's very ballerina. But I love this color palette. The light blush pink, with cream, and dark brown. I think the brown holds it all together. Don't you?

I literally own one single belt. I force it to go with every outfit that I need a belt for. Luckily it's a neutral, and its one of those kind that doesn't have any holes, so I can make it into any size I need, which is very important since my waist and my hips vary significantly in size.

I've been pretty adventerous these days as far as my hair is concerned. I'm starting to get really tired of this weird grown up pre-haircut Justin Beiber bob. But as it is... solidarity! I will grow out this hair! I made this little headband that I have on. It's just a chain crochet stitch. I think it goes well with what I've got going on.

This little owl necklace is the perfect balance between dressy and fun.

Ballet moves.

Well you guys thats about it for me today. I hope you are able to get poolside soon. Don't forget sunscreen. You can still get tan if you put sunscreen on. So don't believe anyone that says other wise. Also, if you spray chamomile tea in your hair, it works with the sun to bring out your natural highlights. It's much better for your hair than Sun-In...which I may still invest in. Anyways... See you soon!

Broadway is a tough, tough arena for singing

Oh World, hello again! I hope you guys are all doing great. I'm actually kind of having and off day. I dont know why, maybe lack of sleep, but mostly because of lack of motivation. I wish I knew why. I have no reason to be un-motivated. Is that even a word? I dont know.

The Title of my blog is a quote from Julie Andrews (my hero). We're doing broadway in the WJU choir for our big spring fundraise. I'm not a very good braodway singer, but I'm working on. If Julie Andrews (My hero) thinks its hard, then it's hard! But I LOVE musical theatre, so I'm really excited about it!!

BUT ENOUGHT ABOUT THAT STUFF!!! Onto more important things!! This is what I decided to wear today. I bought this poncho in December with my birthday money, and I never had anything to wear with it, or I never made the effort to really find anything. Anyways, It has buttons but I dont button it, I'd rather it fall kind of like a cardigan...plus fuller range of  motion, which is always good.



Poncho: Vintage from Etsy (I forgot which store), Sweater: thrifted, Undertank; Thrifted, Jeans: Gap from Freestyle, Shoe: UO, Headband: Anthro

 I took pictures around 7:00 this morning, It was so beautiful and crisp, no weird neighbors out, it was so nice!

I'm really in love with the wide collar on this poncho it's so soft and cozy. It's like wearing a blanket that is socially acceptable in public. I can't believe I never wore it until now! The fringe isn't so bad either:)

I really am in love this little headband. I bought it when I was applying to work at Anthro. I wanted to look really interested. I think it worked because I was offered a position... unfortunately I turned it down for a job that was way lame.

Also, While at school my friend and co-music major pal, Nick Orton was was kind generous to let Alyssa and I to have come of the glory that was his fancy Peet's Coffee. I forget what kind it was, but it was strong, and delious.

Look at the beauty that is the french press. Oh, coffee snobs...

I just wanted a tiny little boost, so Nick poured mine into a cappuccino cup. It was so cute and little. So I documented it. It was a perfect tiny little cup of coffee. The cup had a little chip in it, and it reminds me of Chip from Beauty and the Beast.

Well people of blogworld, thats about it for me today. Take in this glorious weather, I'm gonna go visit my wonderful man of a husband, Nathan. at Freestyle. Get my drink (of chai) on, Get my shop on... Until tomorrow everyone!
