BITTERSWEET



The title says it all. Today was a sad yet happy day....I guess. My aunt is moving out of town and I am really going to miss her and my cousins. But I guess these are just events in life that help you grow. Since I knew it would indeed be a long day I opted to dress comfortable. So I paired this oversize vintage dress, with a leather bust belt and some flats. I am still feeling a little somber now but to my happiness it is my best friends birthday today. So although my day, thus far, has been filled with good byes, the rest of the evening will consist of stiletto's, mini dresses and pink cocktails at a swanky Italian restaurant. Hooray me!! So I am now looking forward to lots of laughs, picture taking and delicious pasta.....I can taste it now.

Thanks for your sweet comment :) My sister actually wanted to go to the hospital, because she knew she needed help, she I don't think it's a form of punishment.. I'm not sure why exactly, but she's just been tired/moody lately. Your points were all good, and I wish it were so simple! My mother isn't much of a listener, and when I try to talk to her, things usually get worse.. I think it will pass, but for the time being it's just a little upsetting.

Anyways, I LOVE the color of this dress, and the belt is fab! Maxi dresses have grown on me, although I've never tried one on yet so I don't know of it will make me look taller or just make me look like a stump..

Also, your hair looks AMAZING! I love the braid!

I'm sorry your aunt is moving.. But you will still keep in touch, yes? Maybe that will ease the sadness a bit?

And happy birthday to your best friend, yay for stilettos and swanky Italianness! :D

..You write me a novel, I write you an even LONGER novel!
