Now I Want Some Lobster Rolls



What I'm wearing:
*anthropologie "Salty Seas" Dress
*J.Crew (outlet) Ruffle-collar Cardigan
*Enzo Angiolini Maylie in Yellow Snake Patent
*anthropologie Flower Pin


I feel fabulously girly and preppy in this outfit. It's probably the combination of critter print + bright green + pops of yellow. Lots of inspiration came from browsing pinterest. You can see that I am plenty obsessed with all things preppy and nautical at the moment. Yes, this dress has lobsters all over it, and yes, I wore it out in public. It definitely made me crave some Luke's Lobster rolls though.


You can probably tell that this set of photos was not taken in NYC. It was a very last minute trip home, but I'm really glad that I came down. The weather was absolutely amazing, and it was really nice to get out of the city for the weekend. It was the kind of weather where I went on as many random errands as possible in order to drive around with the windows down, music blaring, and the wind in my hair. I love spending time with my family, and I wish they were just a little bit closer so I can see them more often.


I know it's a topic that's been beaten to death, but did everyone see the Royal Wedding? I didn't get up super early or anything, but I watched the important bits while getting ready before work on Friday, and I have to say that I absolutely loved her dress. I thought the lace was beautiful and the dress appropriate for such a grand event. Kate, or should I say Catherine look beyond gorgeous, and I have to say that I teared up while they showed her in the car on the way to the wedding, waving at everyone, and the whole event just seemed so happy and optimistic. She is living out every little girl's dream of becoming a princess one day!
