Long Weekend

Somehow we managed not to grill.  But I did at least think about everyone I know that's served our country and those who gave their lives to do so.
I also stayed out late two nights in a row.  How'd that happen!?

Old News

I haven't been busy.  Just uninspired.  Blah.  It's hot and my clothes from last summer don't fit.  Luckily the bright skinnies are on clearance at Target and they had yellow in my size.

Top and belt: F21
Pants and shoes: Target

Special

A little girl's birthday and Mother's day.  Special weekend.

Happy Mother's Day!

Pinspiration

I was shopping a couple weeks ago when I spotted some hot pants just like these that I pinned months ago.

Honestly, where do you wear leopard hot pants?  Not really a great investment piece.
But the $10 price point at Forever 21 was just irresistible to me.
And then date night with the husband presented me with opportunity to style them into an outfit.
To the pin boards again!  I loved this:

And came up with this:

Shirt: American Eagle
Blazer: NY&Co
Shorts: F21

FYI, we saw The Avengers and then went to the Havana Grill for mojitos.

Hulking Out

Bauer is an easily frustrated little boy.  Where Emberly dissolved into a whiny mess, he screams and throws his weight around.  With The Avengers being everywhere right now, I've coined a term for the phenomenon: hulking out.

Loose Interpretation

Red + Navy automatically means nautical, right?  Right!?

Shirt: thrifted
Blazer: H&M
Shorts & belt: F21
Shoes: Bandolino (I don't remember from where...)

Swell

Our weekend was pretty swell.  How about yours?

Orange Pants.  Yes, please.

Top and Necklace: NY&Co
Pant: ASOS

PS: In this little house of ours, my camera USB cord has managed to find a wormhole.  I cannot upload pics until I find it.  Please cross your fingers that I find it sooner than later.
