the front yard

This is just another make-up free day for you guys. I seem to run from that stuff like...I don't know, something very unpleasant...like I run from mayonnaise, nasty stuff! Sunday I woke up wanting to dress comfortable but still cute. This dress, though not overly high fashion, is adorable and definitely encompasses comfort.
The pictures were taken by my Love, aka BLK, and normally I would have complained that there is too much background in the shots, but with a sky looking like that, how can I complain? Even the overcast sky causing not so great lighting, looks breathtaking. Thanks for the awesome pics, Babe.

My new flowers. When it comes to flowers for the front porch, I only buy blue or white ones cause I'm weird like that.

That's right, learning Japanese for our move later this year. I'm going to be living bi-country and tri-lingual! What?!

Wow, I'm really happy with this batch of pictures. Hope you are as well!

oooh weeeee, the 90s...

So yes, the 90s are back with a major bang, and I wanted to share a few of the glorious 1990s vintage clothing newly posted at Frankie Marie by Rehcy, my vintage clothing store on Etsy.

Absolutely gorgeous, 90s embroidered sweater! Almost peed when I saw it...not literally, but you get the idea. You can find her here.
 Yea, this is a fitted mesh top. Remember those? Get her here before she's gone.
 Cropped, slouchy, turtleneck, rainbow sweater. Yea, this just happened. Isn't the colorfulness so beautiful?! Get this super soft baby here.
And one of my favs, the Tommy babydoll Tee. Available here. 

Now is anyone else in the mood to watch Empire Records?
