Dear Paula,
I went vintage antiquing this past Tuesday with my favorite friend, Rachel. We went here and I found the most adorable jade (ish) bead necklace for $8. Photo to follow in the coming days. Next we hit up an antique mall where she found a cute little piece of jewelry as well. There were so many wonderful knickknacks I would have died to buy, along which furniture that cost more than I could make selling my soul but wanted soo desperately. I think in addition to being and old farm lady with tons of animals I will also collect tons of junk.
Later that day I picked up Stephanie and went to Target with intentions of buying a pink watch for our dear friend Abigail, who is living away from us right now and misses being a roomie! Stephanie and I have matching ones in teal and yellow, respectively, and I figured she'd love to join the trifecta. Anyway, so I went there, armed with good intentions, and came back with these lovelies (on clearance!!) and a wonderful maxi dress (that I can't find online right now - pissed) that I'm wearing today. {Side note: Stephanie bought this maxi last time we went. So comfy, great go-to, and the boyfriend loves it.} I go into Target so much that I knew this dress was a new arrival since last week (hence the trouble finding it online) AND I knew to look for this slice of comfort on clearance. Unfortunately, it's too popular to hit clearance (btw, it's hi-lighter yellow and I'm in love - the photo doesn't do it justice). Boo. But I still managed to spend over $60 in this store without even touching what I came for originally. We didn't even walk into the jewelry section. Speaking of which, almost every time I go in there, I try on this falsie engagement ring and drool a little.. Never thought I'd like a circle cut but the band is so dainty and thin that the thing actually looks good on my finger. Look at me, single cat lady trying on rings!!
In other news, I have a date this weekend.. Before you get too excited, I'm 99% sure he's rebounding on me. Recently got out of a 3 1/2 year relationship. Please. Unless it's been at least a year, nothing doing (it's been maybe two months). Figured it was only fair to give him one date (my dear friend Katie operates on this policy.. She's nicer than me.) I'll have to do some research and submit my three outfits I packed for this weekend.. Got an evening wedding complete with cocktail attire to go to as well! Hello fashion. {Side note, me + clothes are like Paula + stationery. It's dangerous.}
Finally, Stephanie is coming over Sunday before the wedding (Yes, it's Sunday night.. Don't get me started) to get her hair did by yours truly. I spent all night (until 2 am) one night playing with her hair and creating ideas that would look nice with her a-line dress from JC Penny. We decided we liked something like this best. Would you agree? {Final Side Note: Speaking of hair, I wanna get something like this done as a reward for reaching my fitness goal this summer. Love? Hate?}
XoXo,
Hanna
