five photo friday: cherry blossoms.

Happy Friday! It's a really happy Friday for me because tomorrow means vacation! Did I mention I'm excited? Because I'm really excited.

These photos are actually from last month when I went to see the cherry blossoms & they were almost at their peak.

Have a great weekend!

I'm off to the Outer Banks for a week & will be back next Saturday!

I'm a slacker blogger, I know. But lately I've been afraid that putting "blog post" on my to do list every day and trying to make myself stick to it is going to make me burn out on blogging, and I don't want that. As it is, I don't have as much time to dedicate to it as I used to, so that means less time reading other blogs, connecting with other bloggers, going to meet-ups, etc. But I do what I can given my schedule, and for me that's enough. And this blog was originally just for me, so I think that's okay.

Also, vacation in two days!!! My boyfriend & I are going to the Outer Banks again for a week and I am so excited I can't even tell you. Mostly because that means no work for a week, and no laptop(s), and no obligations. But I'm determined to go running and keep working out though—just so I don't get out of the habit. Anyways, figured I should get a couple posts in before I go incommunicado for a week, especially since this year I don't have any posts lined up for vacation week.

Oh, and I turned 23 last week!

Now, outfit post!

I'm wearing:

Blazer: Urban Outfitters

Shirt: Gap

Skirt: Urban Outfitters

Tights: Target

Flats: Steve Madden via DSW

Necklace: Occoquan craft fair vendor (forgot the name, eep)

It had been too long since I'd worn this skirt, so I decided to pretty much make this work outfit around it. Also, obsessed with these shoes—I'm so glad I bought them.

Happy almost Friday!

Mondays just seem to disappear—so here's the post I meant to post yesterday!
These are from a weekend or two ago, just a casual Sunday.

Photos by my boyfriend.

I'm wearing:

Jacket: Forever 21

Shirt: Target

T-Shirt: Mastodon, gift from boyfriend

Skirt: Urban Outfitters ($10!)

Scarf: Urban Outfitters (years ago)

Necklace: Urban Outfitters

Boots: Target

Bag: Moda Luxe via ideeli

I found this galaxy skirt in the sale section of Urban Outfitters for $10 when I popped in there a couple weekends ago and I fell in love. And yes, my t-shirt is a multicolored pentagram, because why not. And it's a Mastodon t-shirt, which makes it even more awesome. 

Oh and in exciting news, Dewdrop DC is having another swap! This Thursday, May 9th, from 6:30-9:30pm at tech hub 1776 — more information here. I'm hoping I'll be able to make it—the last swap I went to was a lot of fun!
