Lazy Day

Because I hate being uncomfortable when I shop I went extra casual this weekend. I ventured downtown and can I just say that the new F21 on F Street (go figure) is fabulous! I've never shopped in such a party-like atmosphere.

I hope everyone's weekend was as relaxing as mine-caught up on some sleep and with some friends. Expectantly, the weekend is a good indication of how well the week will go :).

All I See is Fireworks

The Fireworks on the National Mall are the best by far. It was worth the hours of waiting, crowding, and pushing on the metro for a fireworks show that happens once a year for half an hour, and the three day weekend was the icing on the cake.

I didn't realize until after I dressed how festive I looked! Red, white, & black is close enough!

Reporting for Duty

It's been fairly cooler here this week, allowing me to wear the army inspired top I got from Zara a few days ago (on sale!). The only thing missing is some combat boots (it's not that cool) and I'm ready to report for duty on the 4th. What is everyone doing for Independence Day? I'm taking a day trip to the beach tomorrow and having a little shindig at my house after, and of course seeing the fireworks on the mall on Sunday. Have a safe and relaxing Holiday!

Happily Ever After

Top: F21; White skinnies: H&M; Sandals: UO; Necklace: Anthropologie; Ring: NYC street vendor

I took my brothers to see Shrek 4 in 3D yesterday and LOVED IT! I don't get to spend much time with them because we're all so different in age, but the seldom times we do spend together we always have a good time :).

My Love for Ralph

I spent the day shopping after my classes on Tuesday. My friend needed a few more swim suits for Miami and I bought a pair of sandals from Marshalls for only $10 and a carry on for the plane ride. It was definitely a good day :-).
