In My Life

On thursday I attended the Boston Fashion Week Sip and Swap, hosted by the Swapaholics (more on that tomorrow). P.S - I picked up the most adorable Diane von Furstenberg top while there (more on that wednesday). 

(L) Our local theater is my favorite place to go see a movie. I get so excited when the one I wanna see is playing there. This weekend, we saw  50/50, and it was so good!

(R) I’ve been working on a special batch of necklaces and headbands. Don’t worry, I’ll share soon!

Boo and I also went to the fair this weekend! Some highlights: Alpacas, and a water bottle I won that I’m pretty sure I also owned in 1991. 

In My Life

(L) mmmmmmmm, fresh silver queen corn from the farmers market!

(R) We’ve been trying to figure out exactly what we (ok, just me) want for our save the dates. A lot of trial and error. 

(L) Thats my boo. 

(R) We have slowly started decorating for halloween. And with a little help from Pinterest, I’ve dressed up 2 pumpkins so far. I can’t wait to do more. 

In My Life.... With Friends

We had some visitors this past holiday weekend! My oldest, oldest friend (we met on the first day of kindergarden!) and her boyfriend drove out from Niagara Falls to stay with us for a few days. Some higlights from the visit - a whale watch tour, an afternoon at Crane Beach, candlepin bowling (!) and Amanda and Dan’s first Pinkberry visit.

In My Life

(Clockwise L-R):

-A surprise delivery from Boo!

-Working on my sweatshirt for the Be DAZZLING party. Don’t forget to email myself or Linda your sweatshirt by friday if you are participating!

-A lovely day walking around Boston. 

-I don’t usually buy many fashion magazines anymore, but I couldn’t resist the giant september issues sitting on the shelves. And a couple wedding ones, of course, for good measure. 

In My Life.... At Home Again

As usual, I have some instagram photos from our trip home to share with you. And I have quite a few this time……

The day we left, I packed while listening to some She&Him. And then we enjoyed a lovely 8 hour evening drive back to Buffalo. 

This is how we party in the country :) 

Just some randoms:

Me and my Kiki

a random photo of the Peace Bridge while driving through Buffalo

my favorite John & Mary’s sub for dinner

and a baby eating a cupcake. 

We spent a day at Niagara Falls with my oldest friend Amanda and her boyfriend, Daniel. There was some mini golf and laser tag involved. Just sayin. And then we spent 1 1/2 hours in the immigration office at the border for a missing stamp on a certain Dutch man’s papers :)

(p.s - Snape waz here)

Haha, I guess we have a difference in opinion. 

In My Life...

(L) An absolutely gorgeous day at Crane Beach!

(R) We’ve kind of become obsessed with Dave’s sandwiches. So yummy!

(L) A full house at Swap Uncapped! More on that tomorrow…….

(R) I have a little quirk. I looooove corn on the cob. I mean, love it. I’ve been know to eat 8-9 ears of it in one sitting, and nothing else. Thats it, just…. corn on the cob for dinner. But the thing is, and everyone who knows me thinks I’m incredibly strange for this, I refuse to eat it off the cob. Not canned corn… not frozen corn… I don’t care if I sit there as you cut it off the cob right in front of me. No way. Gross. 

Just a peek

Hi everyone! I’m back in Boston now and getting settled back into routine. I’ll be returning with outfit posts tomorrow, but (as usual) I thought I would share a few photos from the trip home. 

(L) obligatory Tim Hortons photo. A trip home isn’t complete without a few TimmyHo runs.

(R) a bit of a wind issue during a outfit shoot 

(L) future BIL crashing an outfit shoot

(R) working right up until the last minute on engagement shoot props

(L&R) a babe in a bikini

(L) lots of sunshine-y days

(R) my kiki!

(L) late night carnival games with an old friend :)

(R) fireworks, of course

……….

P.S - thank you so much Linda, Rebecca and Kate for filling in for me while I’ve been away. And thank you Krust for celebrating HollyDolly’s birthday with me! don’t forget to enter to win a clutch and necklace here - gveaway closes friday evening. 

Just a Few Photos

I don’t have a Wedding Wednesday post ready for today, so instead I’ll share a few recent instagram photos:

(L) Sally Hansen leopard nail effects. They really are as awesome as everyone says. And easy.   (R) new bows that will be added to shop today or tomorrow.  

Started Harry Potter series again! A lot of our evening have been sitting on the porch with yummy drinks and our books. I realized I might not make it through the entire series in  month and a half, so I think I might skip books 2 and 3. It kills me, but if I wanna get through book 7 before the movie, it’ll have to bee done. 

(L) random lamb statue in the park. He likes hugs.    (R) My sister sent us the box set of Six Feet Under. Just what we need - another tv series to get sucked into. We’ve exhausted our Friends, HIMYM, Lost, and Dexter dvds, so its about time we get hooked on another. 

A few shots from Memorial Day in Minute Man National Park (L) Captain William Smith House     (R) Boo (and our picnic bag) walking the Battle Road trail. 

Photos from home.... again

So I was home again this past weekend for the second time this month. We booked our venue, had our engagement party (and I didn’t take any pictures. whoops), went to the casino for my birthday, and painted my face for the sabres game. For some reason, I’m horrible at taking outfit photos when I’m home. Even though I have all my stuff to do it. Sorry about that. I do have one more, but I haven’t gotten around to editing them yet. But, as last time, heres a few other photos from the weekend:

traveling in style / card games with the family

brother is hilarious during Sabres games / tacos for my birthday dinner!

bunny birthday cake! / scenery at home

heading into Canada for a little birthday gambling / Sass-a-frass checking out my outfit photo session

Sorry I don’t have a cute easter sunday outfit to show you. This is actually what I looked like on sunday. In our neck of the woods, a hockey playoff game trumps most everything.
