Oh, my chickens! I have missed you SO!  School started back and things have kept this little lady a super busy bee.  I am finally getting used to my ridiculous schedule & I am going to give this little thing called 'time management' a try! I miss my merrymaking & I miss all of you like mad! I am so ready for fall weather, I could scream.  This weekend is going to be so much fun and I am really looking forward to it.  Some friends and I are going on a short vacation to the lake! I hope you all have a wonderful 3 day weekend.  Let me know how you have been doing and I hope to return to regularly scheduled programming after the break. XOXO.

Bright and Sheery!

Loved this top from the very first moment.  The colors, the stripes, the sheer-ness.  It will even come in handy to layer in the colder months.  Speaking of the changing seasons, I really wish that would hurry it on up and change, because I am dyyyyying over here.   Also, NEWSFLASH: I have a TJ Maxx obsession. Happy Hump Day!

Goin To The Chapel...

Playing a little catch up this bright Tuesday morning!  I wore this to a friend, Kathryn's, wedding two weekends ago.  It was the twirliest, prettiest dress- perfect for breaking it down on the dance floor.

Such a fun evening it was with the most beautiful bride.  And don't think her wedding gown kept her from getting down and doing the Wobble.

Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Turner! :)

It's A Bird! It's A Plane! It's The Merrymaker!

I am so excited to be posting today!  Today is my official last day of summer, I got back for inservice and registration for the rest of the week.  The summer FLEW by, eight weeks of summer camp will do that to you.  I am super thrilled to get back and meet my new kids, and get on a recurring schedule of actual clothes (JEWELRY! Gasp!)  Field trips, crafts, and tennis shoes were fun- but I miss my sparkles and my dresses! Speaking of dresses, I saw this beauty in Target and knew it had to be mine. Birds! Collared! Sleeves!
I love the vintage feel of it.  I wore it to the movies once I finally had the time to go see Batman (It was only recently that I was super disappointed to find out that It's a BIRD, It's a plane! is actually Superman... but my heart will always belong to Bruce Wayne Christian Bale.) Whatev.

I hope the end of summer finds you well! So tell me- What have you guys been up to? What's the 411? Any hot gossip?  See you soon, little chickens.  It feels good to be back in bloggerland.  I hope to give this place a face lift here soon, so look out for that. 

Five Things

HELLO! Just wanted to drop in with a little update.  I actually had a OOTD photo shoot done, but there's a little camera issue.  As in, I can't find it sooooooooo. Here's a little glimpse in to my summer! Things I have been looking forward to, things I have been doing! Lots of merrymaking, my little chickens.

1. First of all, I am taking the end of the week off and going to ATL for an Aerosmith concert! I was raised listening to them and my mother instilled a deep, deep love in all of us.  Plus, last time we saw them- Steven Tyler held my sister during one song.  It was a big deal.  HUGE!

 2.  Phase 10! I do not know if you chickens are familiar with this addicting and competitive game, but it's pretty much a daily thing for me.  I work at a summer camp, okay? No judging.  We even took it to the bar.

3.  WEDDINGS! Summer time is just busting at the seams with people vowing their lives together.  One down, three to go!That being said, I've never met a wedding reception that I didn't like! Mazel tov!

4. BIG BROTHER! It is my favorite show of the summer.  I don't know if you watch it or not, but it is the perfect mix of The Real World and Survivor that keeps me glued to the TV three times a week.  I don't know who my favorites are right now, it is too early in the game... Give it a shot, you won't be bored!

5.  The Lumineers.  I might be late to the game, and I usually am.  BUT I AM OBSESSED! This CD is constantly on repeat on my iPhone, in my car, evvvveeerrryyyywwhhhheeerrrreee.
