Firsts of 2011

First purchase of the new year: Pink glasses, from my favorite vintage store: Decades. $9.00
Loooove em.

First outfit of the season. My hair looked better in person, believe me.

It's gonna be a good year.

Also.
I need to post recent pictures.
Been having some great outfit discoveries as of late.
xo. Laura.

Jus' Some Thoughts Real Quick

I LOVE GETTING LETTERS.
Wow. Missionaries are THE greatest. My brother just gave me some advice via snail mail that I wish he'd given me a long time ago. It would have saved me a lot of pain and heartbreak.
My brother is growing up so much, he is so funny, and so smart.
He promises me so much for the future. He is my best friend.
Look at him and his Brazilian comp! Cute.


Also Logan has been sending me some awesome pictures. Some awesome letters too. :) That red head is the best.


So yeah, the missionaries sound AWESOME. :] I can't wait till they get home. They are so important in my life.

What else? OH. Got my ACT score back. My grade point average also went up. And Laaaaaurrrra is gettting a schhholarshiiiip. 600 bucks baby. And that's ONLY THE BEGINNING. [I hope.]
Hm. Now that I have updated on crappy school stuff...

Not much else to say. Still dancing. Oh. Which reminds me.

Yesterday my family and I went and visited my great grandma. She is 103, and she is a HOOT. She makes me laugh my head off. I told her I am going to school and doing lots of dance and she said: "Oo!! That makes us friends!!" She used to dance and all that jazz :] She is beautiful and I think every person in this world can learn something from her. I am so blessed and privileged to know her and to have her as a part of this life. It feels like having a piece of my grandma with me.

I know the Lord is blessing my life every day. I have the greatest people I could ask for.

Oo. Guess what. Ali Boo is coming home for Thanksgiving. Yessssssss. I have missed her more than you can imagine. I can't WAIT to catch up.

To finish up here is a random outfit update ;) [I can't remember if I uploaded this one yet, if I did, bear with me. I have had many more fabulous outfits since this one, just haven't had the time to take pictures.]

So there you go. Oh man, and I bought this spectacular purple, vintage dress from a thrift store for 6 bucks, belted it, good. as. new.
I'll have to take some pictures of that as well.

K. I must be going now. I need to sleeeeep. Unfortunately.
Wouldn't it be great if I didn't need sleep?

K. xoxo Lots of love.
Laura :]

Fashion Blog

Thinking of making a fashion blog, yeah? It wouldn't be so much fashion as it would be pictures of MY fashion, my outfits...
Idk yet though..

Whatcha think?

Skirt.

I wish I could take credit, but alas, I can't.

Sure, the ensemble was mine.

But the skirt? It's my brother's... dress shirt.

WOW.

Click this and be amazed :)

There is my take on it.
School tomorrow? Chya.

P.S. Stumbleupon might have made me an insomniac forever..

the 26th day of October

Okay. Here goes my worthwhile attempt at a somewhat decent post. It's been a while, I know.

Today, I wore the 50s long, white socks with the red keds and the rolled up skinnies. [The skinny jeans aren't in the picture because I changed for dance.] LOVED IT.

Each morning I wake up and say "What era am I gonna be today?"
Fashion: Love. Simple as that.


Dance. Mmm. Been dancing A LOT. Getting pretty dang good. At least I feel the improvement.

It. Is. Autumn.
Everywhere I go I yell "IT'S AUTMUN." I did twice today in the Walmart parking lot. Pumkins and orange leafed trees. That results in me screaming.
Also...
It sleeted today, I wouldn't call it snow quite yet, but it's certainly getting there.
How unfortunate.

Today is my sweet little sister's birthday. She is turning 8.
8-year-olds are the bomb. Here is a picture of her and I [along with our other sister Carly on the left, Elly is on the right.] The little goofball has a blue mouth from her ring pop. I bought her polka dotted rain boots!



Mmk. What else to update on? OH. I have a crush. On a boy. He's a cutie. Haha. That is all that you will be able to pry out of me. But it's just a crush, nothing more.

Logan. My wonderful redheaded missionary. We have been writing 4 page letters every week for a while now (yes, front and back). He is great. I LOVE getting letters. Look at this ADORABLE picture of him. Mmm.


The Harvest Dance was pretty dang fun. I was Barbie and Danny boy was Ken. We were STYLIN. Cutest couple there for sure ;)
Also went with Elise and her date.

Here's us girls decked out in Barbie attire. --Eyelashes.. Whew mama.


So yeah. Then I've just had school and work and shopping and sleeping and eating. Ha. I haven't done much of the sleeping or shopping. But a tad. Oo. And I got this GREAT vintage hat at Forever21. It's black and totally Audrey Hepburn. Next time I wear it, pictures will be posted.

That is life. It's hectic and crazy, but for the most part, I'm really enjoying it.
xoxoo- Laur.

Real.

Lately, I've felt real. Not fake, not plastic, not stuck up, not overly smiley.

Just real.

Real conversations, real hugs, real laughs.

I like it.


P.S. Like this little number I put together? :)
