So, I went shopping with my sister last weekend trying to help her find some clothes (if you have some good tips for post pregnancy outfits, please leave a comment!). So, she tried this jacket on, but it didn’t fit. Luckily, it was just my size! Ha! So I bought it. Is that wrong? I mean, look at it! How can it be wrong? 🙂

I think I would feel bad if one year, after I went shopping for all my new cool summer clothes, she hadn’t gone out and bought the exact same thing and proceeded to wear it better than me in front of all my friends. Or if she hadn’t asked to borrow my sweater and then never returned it. As far as I’m concerned, she’s had it coming to her!

Ahhhh, sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters…

 

PS: I’m over on Jill’s site today! Come see me participating in her summer essentials!

OK, before you watch this video, you must know, it’s almost 10 minutes long and you’re going to get a glimpse into a different side of my personality – the giggly side. 🙂 Hopefully you’ll enjoy this ridiculous video. This was actually our third take and if you like it, I’ve got two others I can post somewhere for your entertainment.

  • Got my fedora at Forever 21 to fit my tiny head, but there are so many good ones out there! Oh, and here’s the post of the hat I bought and took back! Ha ha! Cool hat even though it didn’t look good on me.

Don’t know what it is, but whenever my friend Gertrude takes my pictures, I’m always laughing in most of them. She is pretty funny. But it may be that I’m a little camera shy? I don’t know. Anyhow, here I am in all my giggling glory.

Oh, and this shirt! Isn’t it great? I tried it on in Chicago with Jill, but it was a size too big and a button was missing, so I passed on it. Well, a week later I had to go return something to Anthro and saw the same shirt in my size with all the buttons for $10 cheaper! Woohoo! So I bought it and I want to wear it every day! I love it! Ain’t it cute?

Oh, and by the way, when you read this, I’ll be on my way to vacation! Yea! I’ll still be posting, but I’ve got a couple of guest posts for you too! Yippee for vacation!
