Pink Lady


Hello there! I've spent much of this weekend being wonderfully lazy. After Friday's crazy adventure, I spent my Saturday over at Zak's house, eating delicious chicken pot pie and playing video games, aka how I generally like to spend my Saturdays. Zak's been feeling a bit down in the dumps lately (physically and emotionally) so I wanted to do something a little special for him. So, I stopped by the store and picked up some of his favorite foods for us to eat together, and I put on an outfit that felt particularly romantic and girly. We've been together for a long time now, and sometimes we take advantage of how comfortable we are around each other. I think it was nice for both of us to do something sweet and semi-romantic. Also, I got to wear a whole lot of pink ruffles. And even though he thought I looked a bit like a grandma, he assured me that I was, in fact, the cutest grandma. I'll take it.

Top: Vintage
Skirt: Nordstrom Rack
Sweater: Zara
Tights: ?
Belt: Target
Shoes: Mom's





Zak told me to be a cat. I gave it my best effort.


Until tomorrow,
Nicole

    So sweet! I love that ruffle top--it's so sweet and romantic! That's so cute of you to do that for him! I agree after being together for so long, my bf and I kinda take each other for granted. I gotta step up and do stuff for him :)

    I think you look cute. I've been with my boyfriend for a long time too, and it's easy to take each other granted sometimes. Oh, and you do a great cat impression.

    YOU ARE DEFINITELY THE CUTEST GRANDMOTHER-CAT HYBRID EVER.

    This outfit sort of reminds me of a more girly and romantic version of the infamous 50's poodle skirt. Like, Jane Austen meets the 50's! I hope Zak feels better! You're such a sweet girlfriend. And chicken pot pie?! My absolute favorite. I'm drooling at the mention of it.

    I hope you've been well! ♥ Has school started? If it has, I wish you luck. I'm dreading going back to college on the 31st.

    I don't think you look like a grandma, and if you do well, its the most stylish grandma I've ever seen. Great soft colors... i absolutely adore your vintage top. So lovely!! I see in your about me that you like mustaches...you should check out my homemade mustaches...perhaps I can send you a few! Let me know what you think!
