Forever & Always

Yesterday, I attended a dear friend's wedding. It was one of the most beautiful weddings I've ever been to. The scenery was gorgeous and the couple was even more gorgeous. But I gotta say, the best part of any wedding is the dancing. I'm always a bit shy at the start, saying things like "Nah, I couldn't", and "No, no, no...I'm a terrible dancer". However, once I get going, I cannot stop. It's like the floor is lava (remember that game?) and I simply can't stop, won't stop.

 

My sweet friend, Meg and I danced the night away while our guys sat on the sidelines, drank shirley temples, and pretended to be impressed by our less than stellar dance moves. Whatever, we rocked the dance floor.

As far as my outfit goes, I borrowed the vast majority of it from Mackenzie, my bff. After being out in the heat for 5 minutes, my beautifully curled hair deflated like a sad balloon but I thought I'd share a few pictures anyway!

Dress: Target Sweater: So old that I can't even remember Shoes: Ask Mackenzie

Ah, my Benjamin looks so handsome, doesn't he? I'm one lucky gal :]

Needless to say, I'm so happy for my dear friends, Justin and Katy and I wish them so much luck and a happy, happy marriage.

Love,
Mimi

P.s. I caught the bouquet. ;]

Shooby do beep bop

I love vintage everything. Even clothes. Most of the time, I love to shop at the Salvation Army or Value World. My sister and I make monthly trips to bring home treasures that no one else will have. I like to think I inherited this love of everything old from my sister. She is the vintage queen and she is perfect. You can meet her over at her place!

So anyway, not all of my clothes are used. In fact, the vast majority of them come from Forever 21 but I still love the monthly vintage buy.

Here's a picture of me from my brother's birthday party last week, snapped by a terrible phone camera because it's all I've got.

Headband: Forever 21 Shirt: Old Navy Pants: H&M Shoes: (not pictured) white vintage slip ons


As you can see, the quality is terrific and nothing is more classic then the dusty mirror shot. Oh well. My high-waisted pants were a hit, although they were very tight and uncomfortable. Beauty is pain, people. Don't forget it.

Love,
Mimi

To all two of you who follow me:

I apologize for never blogging. My life is non-stop. I really want to get into blogging though!

Today, I'm babysitting this sweet little guy...

He's the sweetest little bub and he's been sleeping for almost two hours!! Woo! He's the greatest napper ever. I have the pleasure of being with him for three days out of the week and I love almost every minute of it.

However, he is teething which means my life here looks a lot like this most of the time...

Coffee, coffee, and still more coffee.
I know, I look FABU. I'm currently rocking my boyfriend's tee ball jersey, basketball shorts, and greasy hair. Don't judge me. I don't always look like this. Perhaps when I'm all ready for church tonight, I'll post another picture with a better outfit.

Speaking of outfits, for the past two hours--instead of doing anything productive, of course--I have been playing with the H&M dressing room website. It's so much fun and I've put together so many outfits...for Fall. I can't wait for Fall. I am so done with 80+ degrees. I live for rain, 50 degrees, sweaters, and boots. Bring it on, any day now. Here's a couple of the outfits I came up with...

Obviously, I love a good collar. Can't wait to try something similar to this sometime in October!

Have a great day, my two followers!

Love, Mimi
