She Decorates Herself in Flowers

Beautiful spring blooms make any day better than it already is. And I was so happy to be dressed, already, when I realized it's Everybody, Everywear Floral day! Go check out everyone's gorgeous ladylike flower power!

The thing about my top is... well, several of you have submitted it in a polyvore set for my Nanny Style Contest! And when I stopped by Kohl's for an emergency dress stake-out on Friday, I fell in love with this sweet little Lauren Conrad piece and couldn't bare to leave it. To all of you who suggested this top to make a debut in my new(er) wardrobe, A+ job! I pretty much can't live without it, already.

 top: Lauren Conrad for Kohl's

jeans: Charlotte Russe

flip-flops: (same as yesterday) Mossimo for Target

You know there's a true love between you and me when I show you my arm fat just for a pattern close-up. Mmhmm. Kindred soulmates, I tell you.

Go. See. More. Flowers.

Only a few more days to enter my Nanny Style Contest!

Awkward & Awesome Thursday & Polyvore

Awkward:

- Not having an outfit photo and trying to maneuver Polyvore so I don't miss out on showing you what I'm wearing, today

- Pretending like there's not insane amounts of tension when there totally is

- Telling someone they are going to continue getting paid if they do X, then find out after X (which is irreversable, by the way) has been done that I was wrong

- Twisting my bangs back to the side a la Lauren Conrad and having a million people say, "I thought you got bangs!"

Actually, I magically grew them back, over night. So cool, right?

- People who consistently don't make it to appointments and use the same lame excuse errr time.

Car troubles? Really? I didn't see that one coming...

Awesome:

- For the first time, ever, I finally figured out how to use Polyvore (ahem, please don't make fun of the slow-to-upkeep blogger behind the computer screen).

- Being able to trick people into thinking I never got bangs because I'm a master hair stylist! Or.. I'm really good at getting a few extra minutes of sleep and using the bit-o-build-up from unwashed hair to create magic.

- How blue my eyes are when I use light pink eyeshadows.

- The fact that this work day is only 20 minutes longer and I'll soon have a little toe-headed munchkin in my presence!

- The package I received in the mail from Rochelle, yesterday! Hey, THANKS, friend!

- This dress. I swear, it feels like a nightgown, has a pretty waistline, and makes me feel feminine and flirty!

- All of the FLIPPIN' ROCKSTAR buddies I'm making via bloggity blog bloggin', lately!
