Marilyn Monroe moment


Was it just me or was today super windy/rainy/crappy outside?! Hence the almost everything reveled pictures below. I seriously had to stop and look around and make sure no one just saw my under roes. My mom is going to hate this post because it looks like a miniskirt....I swear mom, it was very windy....it is NOT A MINISKIRT. So in the original photo I took it in a tiny bit, but decided to change it completely up. So, I took 5 inches out from the sides and cropped it and I LOVE it to death. It goes with everything. And what...$3? Awesome. Tutorial here.

Anyway...a little update about Danny...he has mentally and physically recovered from exhaustion, nausea, and dehydration and now all I want to do it smother him to death. I was clingy before, and now I'm VERY clingy. Poor Danny. 

Thanks for all the kind comments....you guys are seriously so sweet and comforting. I love you guys!

  8. I read your previous post, but couldn't comment at the time. I'm glad your husband's back safely. I have no idea how I'd react if something like that happened to me, but you seemed to have handled it fairly well. Hope you never go through that again!

  12. I am in love with your D&B - mine is almost exactly the same, but black instead of white. when I got it I never thought I would use it - it's been 9 months of using it every single day. beautiful outfit!
