Spaced Out


As usual, I had such a nice weekend, and it's almost unfair that it needs to end and another work week has to begin. I spent Friday night getting ice cream with my friends, and then I spent all of Saturday with Jon. We got breakfast at my new favorite breakfast place by apartment and explored the Old Town area nearby. I dragged him into helping me take outfit photos as well, because when you have a boyfriend, you might as well make him useful for something, right? He was a great sport helping me find the only shaded spot at 1 p.m. to this set, and he did a damn fine job if you ask me.

This skirt is one of things I got in a recent sale, and I'm in love with it. I've been wanting to buy something from Hello Holiday and try a Rock Steady piece for ages now, so it only make sense to buy a Rock Steady skirt from Hello Holiday. The store is a particularly worthy small business to support, and I even got to interview Meg, one of the owners, for my internship with FAB Counsel last summer. Meg and co-owner Sarah are just so damn cool, and I've always admired how much of themselves they put into their business. I could probably buy every single thing in their shop, but I ultimately went with this killer space/robot printed skirt and a rad pair of shoes that I'll show in my post on Wednesday. This outfit was perfect for an incredibly hot day that, of course, resulted in smoothies. I couldn't ask for a better Saturday than one filled with space themed skirts and smoothies.



The rest of the weekend was spent watching Parks and Rec with Jon, who I finally convinced to watch it, running errands, planning more of my upcoming Portland/Seattle trip, and getting milkshakes with my friend Adam. I also finished watching through Dead Like Me (which I loved) and made the mistake of watching the movie. It. Was. Awful.

  4. What a cool print! I've never checked out Hello Holiday before now, but their front page already has me hooked. Also, I had no idea there was a Dead Like Me movie, but now I'll gladly avoid it if I ever come across it.

  6. That skirt is so perfect on you! Glad that you got the boyfriend to watch Parks and Rec - so awesome. My boyfriend and I are already planning on that being the first show that we watch together when I move back to Pennsylvania in October :)
