Unforgettable, that's what you are.

Hello everyone!

 I have not posted in over a year! It is incredible. Life has been a whirlwind since I have started my new job. I have been working a lot and I can barely find any time to do anything! My photog, Stephanie, got a new camera so there may be model posts later. For right now, I just want to talk fashion, food, and fun.

This passed October, my beautiful grandmother passed away at age 77. She was like a second mother to me. When I was in 5th grade, she took me in for a year, then again when I was 15. She practically raised me and I give her a lot of credit for the person I am today. She was a wonderful woman and will always be missed.

Even when she was alive, I LOVED going through her old photos. It was the 1950's when she was in her twenties and she had impeccable style. I went through pictures of her for the funeral and found some really wonderful pictures that I would love to share with you all.









 



My aunt and I found her wedding dress late last night, so I am wonder what kind of condition it is in. I think she is bringing it down sometime today, so if she puts it out I will definitely take some pictures! I love that it is so classic-- I would definitely wear it today. She said almost EVERYTHING she ever owned-- I wish she would have saved her clothes from when she was younger! UGH!!!

Warby Parker Event










Last week, Jordyn and went down to N 3rd Street to check out Warby Parker's new showroom here is Philadelphia! It was a pretty metro scene, everyone rocking their Warby Parker glasses. 

When we walked in we instantly gravitated towards the music area, where they had all these head phones where you can listen as you remixed music and such. As you can see, they used Beatles music for this display! As Beatles fans, Jordyn and I were ECSTATIC!

Then, we went for it: the glasses display where you can try on frames that Warby Parker has available. I am on a search for another pair, I currently have the Crosby. I was also on the search for some new prescription sunnies, and spotted these. Did I mention that every pair is only $95 and for every pair you buy, they give a pair to someone in need? Pretty awesome if you ask me! It was so packed that I did not make a definite choice, so I want to go back ASAP!

Hope everyone had an amazing Turkey Day! Now I NEED to get some sleep.. I have work in 4.5 hours! Black Friday, le sigh.

Free bird.








These pictures were taken in the dog days of summer. I forgot stripes like those on my shirt do not photograph well... yikes. Oh wells. Now that we are in mid-November, the days of sickness have arrived and I am sitting here with NO VOICE! Ugh! It is the worst! Stay healthy you guys!!

Pink Lady.







Another oldie from the summer. I am not so sure that I love the pink cardigan with this dress, it kind of makes me look frumpy. I do however LOVE this necklace, I wear it often. I also bought these shoes when I was in my brother's wedding and I love that I can still get some use out of them!

Special shout out to the lovely ladies at Point of Sale!!!

c'est la vie dahling,
