What I Wore: Sweet Heart

You know how I love a good happy outfit to turn my frowns upside down, and this one is just perfect. The second I put it on and tried to think of a good and fun shoot for it, I couldn’t help but grab the bubbles and tie my hair in pigtails. It was just screaming for it. Every now and then, I think it’s perfectly OK to act childish. Alright, so I pretty much think this is OK every day. Life is too short to take so seriously, would you not agree?

ps; I think I may be completely obsessed with Revlon’s lip butters. Have you tried them?

Happy Hump Day: Neil Patrick Harris

Although How I Met Your Mother has gone the way of the dodo (did I really just use that phrase???), I think all of us can agree that the only remaining positive is Neil Patrick Harris and his character, Barney Stinson. It’s impossible not to fall in love with the sensitive, yet douche-tastic Barney and his fantastic one-liners. It helps that NPH is just a generally awesome person with some serious abs. Win/win.

What I Wore: Mellow Yellow

Although I live in one of the most humid and sticky places in the US, I have a hard time rocking shorts. I’m just not a huge fan, but find them a necessity to my wardrobe due to our weather. To make them a little more desirable, I decided to stock up on fun summer colors. I was lucky to find a killer sale at the Gap outlet a couple of weeks ago on just that, and these were one of my take aways! Aren’t they a fun and sunshine-y shade of yellow?
