Mint marshmallows

Outfit Details:
Eva Franco Dinner Mint Dress: ModCloth (some available on eBay!)
Mint belt: ASOS (similar here)
White floral tights: Forever 21
White boots: eBay
Bracelet: old




I kind of hemmed and hawed (what a weird expression) about whether I wanted to post these photos.  On the one hand, I really like this dress a lot.  I got it on sale last year, after having eyed it for a long time, and really, it's the perfect shade of mint.  It's also definitely a fancier occasion dress, I think; you can even tell from the weight of the dress that it's high quality, and I think it's meant to be worn with heels.  It kind of loses something with these kooky boots.  I just kind of felt like these photos were missing something, and that I didn't really like any of them.  But then I revisited them, and I still wanted to post them... plus, I am out of photos and need to figure out when I'm going to take more!  So here they are.  I guess there's no way I could be absolutely in love with every post, ya know?





I'm still recovering from my surgery, and I just want to be better!  I'm also sick of talking about it, haha.  But mostly, I just want this pain to go away and I want to be able to eat normal things.  What I wouldn't give to eat some carrots and hummus.  It's funny that I so often crave junk food, and then when I can only eat things like pudding and ice cream, I have a desperate desire for healthy stuff.  I just hope that I'll be okay to eat most things on our trip, because the eating aspect is like, one of my favorite parts about Disney (or vacations in general, I guess).  And we're going to some great places, so I'll be damned if I can't enjoy them!  Gah, I have so much to do before we leave!




I had an audition last night and have a subsequent callback tonight. I'm not gonna say any more than that for now, but keep your fingers crossed for me!  :)  Have a great Monday!

Mint ting-a-ling (an outfit post)

I tried to take pictures of this outfit I wore last Sunday... and I'm having a ton of trouble with my camera and using the self-timer feature.  It won't focus, no matter what I do!  So most of these pictures are super blurry (though I sort of like a couple of them that way).  I want to get them crystal clear, but how?  I'll have to write some other bloggers and see.  I tried to re-take some tonight, but had similar issues.  The dress is too adorable to not post though, so here are the best of the bunch (such as they are):

Outfit details:
Ice cream sandwich dress: I'm Your Present
Brown bolero: can't remember
Necklace: Forever 21 (at least 2 years ago)
Seafoam shoes: B.A.I.T. footwear

This poor necklace has been sitting on my jewelry tree for 2+ years and this is the first time I've worn it!



I'm obsessed with these shoes.

I'm super annoyed with how blurry these are!  Until I figure it out, I'll have to enlist friends to help me.  If you want to volunteer to take tedious photos of me, let me know.  :)
