Chasing Away the Blues

My outfit is very blue today....but I'm not! Chris is finally back from his two month rotation up north so now I have him all to myself for the next month...until he leaves again. Until then, I will force my camera into his hand and make him take my pictures ;)

Why hasn't anyone invented button ups that don't want to burst open at the bust? I'm tempted to just sew all of my shirts shut.

Bang Bang

I may have gone a littttttle crazy yesterday while getting my hair cut. Full on bangs. I've never had them before but they're pretty fun! Any styling tips for bangs?

The more I wear my vest, the happier I am that I kept it. I can't wait for the temperatures to drop a little bit more so I can wear it outside of work too.

I've been seeing tons of ladies wearing theirs in cute ways so check them out if you are looking for some new ways to style a cargo vest:

One of my closet friends Alexa (the one that gave me my favorite scarf) is back from New Zealand for 6 weeks - I'm so excited to have her back stateside! Her family just got this adorable yellow lab that we've been cooing over all afternoon - her name is Cali - isn't she just adorable?!
