all photos by John Taylor

making the cut!

so... i woke up this morning and thought I'd just trow on one of my many romper/jumpers (by the by, is there a difference between the two are they the same thing?.... I digress) So I put on this jumper which I'd scored for $3.00 at Walmart the

 other day (Miley Cyrus/ Max Azra brand)... 

and since I , per usual, didn't try it on at the store, I discovered that my 5'10" frame was too long for the jumper, resulting in some serious camel toe! yikes.  So, undeterred, I ran down to my studio and chopped the sucka in two!  

TADA... now I have two items of clothing instead of just one!  I love me a deal and a top and shorts for just 3 bucks is definitely a great deal!

I have been luxuriating in the nothingness of summer, and in my laziness I've been avoiding my computer, but I am gonna try to be a more vigilant blogger... I have some exciting travelling coming up and lots of wedding craftiness! 

once upon a time....

so, if you read my last post you saw those paper moons I was into... right? well, I ended up making a moon and hanging it in our backyard for our engagement photo shoot!  the engagement shoot was a success and I am just waiting on the prints from the photographer... but I figured... since I have this fun moon and stars in my backyard I should do a little photo shoot of my own.... 

(*Warning,this post is super, image heavy!*hehe) I wanted something that looked vintagey, and like something I would NEVER wear, so I layered some petticoats and put on some heels and voila!  I only wish that I had a flowered crown!  I was feeling a bit like I was in a fairy tale except that it was a million degrees out and I was dripping sweat.  And even though I was all alone in my backyard, I was feeling pretty self-conscious  in this uber girly outfit(I'm just not used to looking so frilly) but, all in all, I had a fun time (I am just loving these lazy summer days where I can take the time to do silly/dorky things like this!)

p.s. I had my wedding hair-do run-thru today! (hence, the fancy hair)  I'm so excited, all of these little wedding details are starting to happen!
