The Lannisters Send Their Regards


All cards on the table, I'm having a hard time concentrating on this post. For one, I'm beyond exhausted and running off of three hours of sleep as I write this on Sunday night. The biggest reason, though, is because I just finished the "Game of Thrones" finale, which, in all its glory, is very distracting. So I'm going to be very proud of myself if I actually make it through this entire post. Bonus points if I actually make sense during it. I hung out with a bunch of friends on Saturday night for my good friend Greg's birthday, and even though I played designated driver for the night, I still ended up home and exhausted past 1 a.m. and in bed by 2 a.m. Normally that wouldn't be a problem, but work the next morning required me to be up around 5 a.m. Father's Day is one of the busiest days of the year at the restaurant I work at, so it would have been tiring even if I had gotten a full night's sleep. After eating lunch and showering really quickly, I went straight to my brother's house to celebrate Father's Day, and was only home for about 20 minutes before my friends were picking me up to go to Downtown Disney for a late dessert. There was no time for napping or blogging, hence why I'm writing this at almost 1 a.m., attempting to stay awake.

I do at least have enough energy to talk about this dress that I'm wearing as a top. I borrowed from the extremely lovely Jana via Flock Together, and it's one of those pieces that has been on my wishlist for a while. I'm glad I got to try it out, though, because I ended up not really liking how it looked on me as a dress. I struggled with how to style it for longer than I should have, but I knew that I needed to find a way to make it work somehow since that collar was just too great to pass up. I ended up wearing it as a top and pairing it with this skirt (which looks more turquoise in person), and I quite like the results. Add to that a simple cardigan and little wedge sandals, and this is the kind of look I can get behind.
