A Golden Sun & Lots of Rest

Outfit Details:

Shirt: Rue21

Jeggings: Kohl's 

Earrings: Body Central

Necklace: Charming Charlie's

With the recent flood of colder weather, I tried my hand at taking some pictures inside. I still need to find someplace with better lighting, but for now it'll do. There is something that looks chic and effortless about this  outfit, maybe because it was a last minute choice?

I'm still sick and I'm ready for it to just go away. But, eh, it's life, isn't it? So for right now I'm subject to laying on my bed, drinking copious amounts of ginger ale and tea and watching TV shows. Right now I'm in the middle of Chuck, afterwards I have no idea what I'll watch. Any Suggestions?

Belated Senior Pictures

I recently had an awesome chance to have a family friend take some pictures for me. Actually senior pictures, a little late as I was out of the country for my senior year. Carlyn K photography took these amazingly beautiful pictures for me. She is a super talented photographer, with such an eye for photography and she is so enthusiastic about her passion, it is something to be envious about.

I chose three outfits for the photos and we had the shoot in mid-November when everything was about to turn brown and grey. We got so many good photos and I'm excited to share them with you. If you want to see more make sure to check out her blog post.

I've met a duchess

When lacking for words when meeting someone new this is one way to get the conversation going. It is definitely something that people do not expect you to say. Not to brag, but it is true. Of course at the time I had no idea, I found out later. Apparently, they did not want to overwhelm me. I was already overwhelmed, I was speaking a new language, hanging out with people I barely knew, and thrown into a completely different culture.

On a different subject, because I'm still fighting back the sickness and haven't had the chance to take photos yet, I thought I'd post some really old ones. These are from late July/early August. My brother snapped these photos for me. Just a little warning, my true colors come out in these photos

Sonic Screwdriver: Amazon (same)

I've mentioned before, briefly, that I love science fiction. Back in the summer when my brother spotted someone with a TARDIS in their yard, I knew I had to get some pictures with it. Being very brave, I'm normally shy, I went to the house and asked if I could take photos with it. Obviously, they said yes. 

The inspiration for the outfit came from one of the doctor's companions-Amy Pond. Her outfits tends to consist of mini skirts, tights, leather jackets, and boots. The discovery of the TARDIS was good timing, as just a few weeks earlier I had received my sonic screwdriver in the mail. I'm a geek and I admit it happily. 

What are your geek-isms?
