I'm falling in this photo ^^.....

So if you were following along during The Birthday Chronicles then you may know that one of the things I wanted to do was "thrift a tartan dress" well, that never happened. :(

But this is a dress I have had literally all my life and have worn it twice. TWICE! crazy I know... and when I finally decided it was actually adorable, it was too small, bleh.

dress // Jean Bright
sweater // Target
boots // Ross
watch // Casio, Target -- I thought since I always forget to take my watch off for photos I may as well just let you know where it's from...

When No One Is Willing To Take Photos Of Me And Automatic Mode Isn't Great

No comments

so most of these photos are blurry or in motion because I couldn't quite convince anyone in my family that taking photos of me in 20 degree weather would be fun... and my camera doesn't quite suffice because you have to put it on automatic mode and self timer doesn't like that...... also I don't have a tripod but a stepladder..... so that's another fault...

shirt // gifted, F21

jacket // F21
pants // F21
boots // Old Navy
bracelet // Gifted
ring // Gifted
earrings // Gifted....... sorry

Birthday Chronicles 12/16 - Pre Birthday Birthday

No comments

On Sunday Emma and I both were surprised by a birthday celebration! Emma's birthday is on the sixteenth of January, she turned 21 and went back to school where all of her friends are and they all celebrated there... My dad left for a fishing trip they day before my birthday. My mom wanted us to all celebrate with the entire family, so we celebrated on Sunday! I had no clue, I was just about in bed that night when I was summoned downstairs... it was so fun :)

we strongly believe in breaking out randomly into dance numbers.

So I am officially 16 (as of yesterday...)

I have loads of things to post... but I will try to spread them out a bit, sorry my bday chronicles didn't end right on my bday as I hoped... xoxolivia.

I know I promised that it would be posted last night... But I fell asleep watching SNL and just had to go to bed...
But here is the video of my sweet sixteen!!! I had such a great time and I can't wait for our birthday on Tuesday, the fun never ends! If you all remember, Ally (my bff) and I have the same birthday, so we are basically bound to be twins ;)
enjoy! xoxolivia

+WHAT WE ATE:

early city mornings sure do us justice, just look at those sleepy faces... awwwwww...

crepes, fancy hot chocolate, nothing gets better than this!!! (Well.... I'm actually not a huge crepe person, and the hot chocolate was kinda bitter) BUT STILL AWESOME!
