what girls do

recently, K's guy was around when we were chatting, and asked "how often do you guys talk about shopping?" we told him it is only a fraction of the time we spend talking. K and i talk about everything under the sun. recently, L, and i were talking about picking shoes for an outfit she was going to wear to a wedding, shawls and watches but, we talk about all sorts of things as well. my friend I knows my closet but she knows me so well she can tell what i'm thinking before i do.

my girlfriends and i talk about life. work. love. shoes. purses. boys. mean people. traffic. family. health. dresses. sales. diets. workouts. what to pack. stress. people who bug us. jeans. flash sales. groceries. furniture. redecorating. gifts to buy. shopping sites. ebay. bosses. friends. colleagues. boots. happiness. date outfits. wedding outfits. fears. accessories. recipes. good movies. bad movies. books. worries. watches. makeup. this is what girls do.

  3. This dress.. there are no words for this dress! I actually saw a kids version at my local Joe Fresh, and I couldn't get over it. It was fit and flare style as well, with large stripes. I seriously debated picking one up for my niece, just so I could keep looking at it!

  14. This dress is to die for phiphi! I was contemplating getting it in the orange/pink colorway, but seeing the black and white and how classic it is I think I've changed my mind. It looks great on you!

    1. thank you Katie! ooh the orange/pink would look amazing on you too - but you're right that i picked this colourway because it was more classic, and i thought i'd wear it more. xox

  16. LOVE the shoes. Not too big a fan of the dress; the cut is great but I think the wide stripes gives the illusion that you're wider than you really are.

  17. That is what girls do. But speaking from experience, don't do it drinking bottles of champagne in front of the fireplace some NYE for 11 hours. The upside is, the hangover from that cured me from over indulging alcohol. Forever.

    You look lovely and elegant as always. ;)
