I'm Growing Gills

The weather has been miserable lately; raining nearly constantly. I will either grow gills or build an ark if this madness doesn't end soon. Still, the sole benefit of all the rain is how green everything is becoming.

Just cited you on my blog as one of my favorites. Your style and photographs are incredible! Keep up the amazing work, love!

Kim said...

I've actually been enjoying the rain, but it's true that "enough is enough." Some sign that the sun still exists would be nice.

Your second outfit is totally adorable. Hooray for ruffles, cuffed sleeves and tucked in shirts!

catherine said...

Nadia said...

Do you have a roommate/friend that will yank your skirt a few inched down before you go out?

The Haute-Shopper said...

Love that ruffled top. That nail color is awesome... automatically makes an outfit more 'Springy'. I'll definitely have to try that out!

ps. i love that top so much, too. I just got a sewing machine and it is giving me ideas!

Denise said...

we're not expecting rain here for now, not until June or July, so i hate it when it's unscheduled. It's very ruining. hihi.

i love the neck of your last top. so cute.

btw, bout my passport, am not to renew it till 2011, but am little excited to get the electronic one. And if plans doesn't change we might go have some major CRUISE. hihi.

I just LOVE the ruffle details on that shirt! I am sucker for anything and everything ruffled...

dapper kid said...

That first photograph is absolutely breathtaking! I love your t-shirt in that first outfit and your skirt in the second is fabulous :) Oooh and I adore the photo of your nails and the those tiny budding flowers.

Oh, and totally know what you mean, I wore school uniform from 5 until 17, so on the weekends I really used to have a planned outfit. I was in a suit for so long, I used to go a little wild when I could.

l'ananas said...

just how do you get your bangs looking so fabulous? and during this rainy mess!?

Dee said...

I have the same black skirt! But since I had to buy it in a smaller size (one size up and it kept falling down), I keep pulling it down every few minutes when I'm wearing it. But it's one of my favorites, because you can match it with so many things!

The Vain and Vapid shirt is really cute! Love how it's still a t-shirt silhouette, but with the ruffles! Digging the nails, too!

olivia said...

MizzJ said...

Cute outfits and I love the setting of these photos. It doesn't look rainy on that day, in fact it looks quite sunny and introspective :)

ZombieLace said...

Great nail color! You seriously inspire me to keep my nails interesting, I think I rarely see you with a shoddy manicure!

Tea said...

You have such a cute vintage style!! And love the pics.

Maeko said...

I agree with you about the greenery. The dogwood trees and cherry trees behind my condo complex (that shield our windows from the apartment sprawl behind us) are finally blooming in their flowering little screen along the fence. I planted a container garden on our deck and I can eat out there smelling the fragrance of flowers borne on a slight wind. It's gorgeous. Until the humidity will set in in about a month...
