For us, it’s the experiences, the travel, the connections, and the iconic fashion of weddings that we love. This blog is our inside edit of all those things and more.  

roomie.

chris and i have a new roommate that is living with us for a few months- and so far it’s been fun having another girl around! cocktail hours at the house and family dinners. big breakfasts on saturday mornings.

the best part….her wardrobe  :-)

i realized yesterday as i was looking through her closet that i am in desperate need of cute shoes! i was born without the girly gene of needing to buy new shoes every weekend. but now….now i have an entire closet to choose from! this changes everything.

i sit and make plans in my head- BIG plans! i will start wearing hot heals to work, the fun jackets, the flowery tops….maybe even a dress here and there!

i WILL be girly and cute god damnit!

as i am making all these plans in my head, i am pulling on my worn out jeans that are one wash away from being my “worn” jeans to my “holey” jeans. and i throw on my plain white tshirt that i have always believed is hotter than any designer top. just ask my husband if you don’t believe me. add my 5 yr old sneakers to the mix and i’m ready to go!

so yes. i am making big fat pink girly plans to be cute. maybe not yesterday. and today…well today i’m in the same jeans and an OFF WHITE shirt. (don’t judge) but hey- maybe tomorrow??? yes….tomorrow i will take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity. not many girls have a second wardrobe magically show up on your doorstep. so yes….tomorrow…tomorrow is the day. tomorrow i will be a girl  :-)
