This is how I do it!

You know those blogs that have their own photographer and perfect photos from their perfect camera? Well, this is how I do it.
Via Photobooth. 

 Headless 

 With indecent exposure...of my skirt underneath

 And with awkward dance moves trying to fit my head into a shot...

:D

A snowy day in October

The first day it snowed at least an inch in Salt Lake. Oh my dear... It was a surprise, but not a bad one. I'm glad I was okay putting on my coat. Somedays you just don't want to wear a coat, ya know? 

I cut my hair! It is so short! Blarg! I love it when it is straightened, but I absolutely hate it if it is any other way. Yeah, luckily it'll grow out.

I loved walking across campus and seeing the snow. It was so pretty. 

Sunday in October

Last Sunday I wore this loverly skirt I borrowed from my grandma. I was so excited when I was snooping around her closet and I found it. She was happy to let me borrow it. I love my garramma. :D

Simplicity

 Here am I! In a tried and true reliable outfit. It is me in a nutshell. Simple, kinda girly, with some color. Ya. And that is how I like it. I think the whole purpose of this blog is to help me be more comfortable with myself and to prove to myself that I am comfortable!I feel reassured by this scripture- Alma 1:27 "...and they did not wear costly apparel, yet they were neat and comely." It tells me that church and every day clothes don't need to be fancy and frilly and showy. They can be simple- and you can still look good and feel comfortable.

 On one side of the apartment we have this lovely yellow hill with the view of the rich people's houses on top.

On the other side we have a nice view of the north end of the valley...and the scary dropoff, which you can't really see in this picture. I really love how 'natural' it looks over here, especially since we are near the busy city.

I'll have four more outfit posts in the near future, but sorry, they're from July and August. :)



Life happens. And some of it is good.

Hey there. Wow. I don't even know how time can pass so fast. It feels like I was just here, boppin along with this blog, almost getting somewhere. You know? Well, life does that to you. You think you've got a handle on things and then  BAM KAPOW !!!!!!!!! haha. Yeah, I said kapow. So, I think the last time I did a successful outfit post was in... July... Can't remember. Anyway, on the 8th of August I was married. Hence, the disappearance. It has been crazy. Here are some photos of what has been going on in the past couple of months. Does this count as an outfit post? ;)

Engagement with my silly dude who really hates getting his picture taken.

Black shirt-Target, Jeans-Charlotte Russe. I highly, highly, greatly recommend pants from Charlotte Russe. They are my favorite. Move over American Eagle!!

Another engagement with my dude in the grass that hurts and itches when it pokes you in the butt...

At our reception. We had it the day before the wedding. I thought it should be important to emphasize the temple. Plus it is WAY less stressful. 

Dress- The Perfect Dress

This is on our honeymoon. We went to New York. We went to a Yankees game. It was fun. :)

Me at The Met (or is it the AMNH?). If you go to New York, go to this museum! It is so awesome. Even if you hate museums....cough....

Shirt-Kohls, Pants- American Eagle, Sandals-DSW, but not that you can really see my sandals, huh? 

Well, there you have it. The most condensed version of my life in 5 pictures. If you really want to know more, just post a comment or send me an email at Daffodilcats at gmail.com. I would love to hear from you! Especially if you are getting married or engaged or you have questions about marriage or what a marriage/marriage ceremony is like in my church. Or you can go here.

okay love you bye!
