Happy first of July!
Today is actually a much cooler day than what we've been having recently, so I'm staying in and getting tons of work done. And number one on my list is obviously a blog update. It's been kind of a while...I think it's weird when bloggers have to apologize for not posting every day, I understand that they have real lives too!
Like I said, it's been HOT. I've been doing lots of this....
And last week I broke out the popsicle mold (that had not been used in 10+ years) and made mojitopops!
Strawberries, mint, limeade, and freeze. You could add rum, but these were delicious without it.
Also, do you see the sewing machine in the background? I learned how to use it, finally! Been hemming skirts like a mad woman.
So here's my outfit.
Tank: Old Navy, Shorts: Rue 21 (hemmed)
You know, nothing special here.
Untilll.....
BAM. I found this in a long-forgotten hair accessories drawer, and I believe it was given to me as a gift about 10 years ago by my parents' friend from Brazil. I can't tell you how happy I was that I found this again. I used to wear crazy hair clips like this every day.
My boyfriend found it pretty interesting. He said it looks like a Peruvian Flute Band.
(South Park watchers should know immediately what episode he's referring to.)
So it's been a pretty nice week of learning things (how to use a sewing machine) and finding forgotten treasures (popsicle mold and my Peruvian Flute Band hair clip).
Here's to a spectacular July!
Wow, I really love the hair clip. How cute and different!

that hair clip is totally rad, I love that it's unique in a non-tacky way. And those mojito pops look great...did you leave the strawberries whole to freeze? Now you've got my wheels spinning for the 4th of July!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat? Bloggers have lives??? :)
ReplyDeleteThat hair clip is beyond amazing...hmm. My sister has a set of Worry Dolls, I bet she'd give them too me to make into a hairclip.
Oh my goodness! Those hair clips are the best. I never knew anything existed like them!
