Spring Breakout

SPRING BREAK!!! It's my last day of work until April 11th! Wahoo! While I can't afford to go on vacation this year due to my mortgage payments going up $200 every month because of building renovations, I'm excited anyway! I plan to spend the 10 days drawing, sewing, etsying, watching baseball, and biking (and going to see the wienermobile when it comes to my grocery store next week - a childhood dream will be fulfilled!) Hooray! Then I will look at all my posts from Korea last spring break and cry about how I am too poor to travel right now. Boo.

P.S. I LOVE this outfit and want to wear it forever.
Glasses - thrifted vintage American Optical, prescription replaced
Silk shirt - thrifted vintage Melrose Silk Studios
Belt - thrifted
Bracelet - Opitz Outlet $2 store
Pants - thrifted Isaac Mizrahi for Target
Shoes - Michael Kors

Awesome $1 belt (that I added SIX holes to, but you can't turn down a too big highlighter yellow belt for a buck) and my $2 bracelet:


Also, tomorrow is the last day of my prescription post-Lasik eyedrops then I have a post-op on Monday with my doctor to check how things are healing. My vision is still a bit hazy and fuzzy, so my photos followed suit and turned out blurry.

Alright, I'm sure I'll post some over spring break but it will be sporadic! Later dudez!

    a. Those pants are so awesome, I don't blame you for wanting to wear them forever.
    b. Your eyes look (from the photos) like they're healing nicely.
    c. Now we just need nice weather for your break! C'mon sunshine!

    You should come down to NOLA for Mardi Gras because sometimes the weinermobile is in parades. They throw little wiener whistles to the kids!

    These ones already have just plain glass in them, I plan to keep wearing all my glasses and just slowly get the lenses replaced to no prescription!

    No way I would have turned down that belt! I've been wanting to buy some skinny belts, but I haven't ben willing to pay the $10+. Glad your eyes are healing nicely. I had laser eye surgery (not lasik, but PRK). I still use eye drops after 3 years as my eyes tend to dry out, but at least I can see.

    Such a cute outfit! So preppy with a retro feel to it. The glasses are so ridiculously cute. What a great accessory!

    Hope you have a wonderful day!
