Photo-A-Day: Week 3

Week 3 of the June Photo-a-Day Challenge did not go as well. Most of these pictures were not taken on the appropriate days, but, hey, at least I'm taking them!

A small sampling of my family on my wedding day. Dad was working in England :(

seattle, lake washington, bellevue, boat shoes, madrona
Taken from Madrona, directly across from Bellevue

Day 18:  Street
Aurora Bridge, Seattle, downtown, fremont, road, driving
My daily drive is pretty gorgeous

Day 19: Currently Reading

I wanted to take a picture of nutrition labels, because I read a lot of those :-/ 

Day 20: Cute
Not your usual cute: some sort of animal tail and a bug pin

Day 21: Lunchtime
Honore Bakery, macaron, lemon, cafe, bakery, ballard, Seattle, newspaper
Not much of a lunch, but I'm not complaining!

Tomorrow is my 10 year reunion! Wish me luck!

Look of the Day: gingham & denim

My husband didn't want this shirt anymore, so I snatched it up and cut the sleeves off. I've really been wanting a gingham shirt, and even though it's not quite the fit I was looking for, it will do for now. It looks good belted and there's enough material to tie a knot in the front. Thanks for the donation, husband!

Speaking of husbands, Trevor and I have been married for nearly a year! I can't believe it's been that long already! We are planning on going to Tutta Bella for our anniversary, since it's where we went for our wedding lunch. They have award-winning Neapolitan-style pizza and this amazing salad with beats, pistachios, and goat cheese. The salad is so good we ordered two that last time we were there.


Here's that lovely little bag from Mochi Beaucoup again. I just love it with anything blue, but especially navy. It goes nicely since this shade of orange is closer to a neutral than a bright.

Look of the Day: feeling like myself again

Surprise!!
fleur d'elise, blonde, pixie cut, seattle, blogger, fashion, spring
 I'm back to blonde! Blonder than ever actually. At the salon, I said platinum without realizing that kind meant "Make my hair translucent". Now I know how polar bears feel.

 Shopping tip of the week: If you can make it work, buy kid's clothes! They are so cheap! I got this shirt for $6 at Target. And I bought a matching one for my niece, hahaha
This isn't even the largest size they had, so you might as well take a look the next time you're at Target. You might be able to save some money!

 This lovely little bag came in the mail yesterday and I couldn't be happier. I'm thinking about buying all the colors Mochi Beaucoup has! It was hard to decide which color to get, but in the end orange bag won because I need some orange in my wardrobe. They have some really cute pastels, too, that are perfect for Spring. I love how they have them stacked on top of macarons. Too cute.
