Home!




Dress: Wal-Mart Scarf: Gift Hat: Wet Seal Sunglasses: GlassesUSA

After a lovely six days in paradise (commonly known around my apartment as "Gatlinburg, Tennessee"), I'm home.  And just wishing I could go back. I've decided that vacation is officially the greatest thing ever and plan to start viewing my job as the Enabler of More Vacations. Makes it a lot easier to have to be back at work 12 hours after being home from vacation.

This is the outfit I wore on the long 10 hour drive down to Tennessee. And what I wore back up. When stuck in a car for that long, all I really want is clothing that kind of doubles as a blanket. Which, obviously, is a maxi dress. And I rarely wear flip-flops (I honestly have like two pair, both of which I think are from dollar stores) because they just don't look nice with outfits most of the time, in my opinion, but I hate wearing shoes on long drives. So flip-flops it is! It was also lots of fun taking these photos outside of Fazoli's in Kentucky at dinner time. And by fun I mean really awkward, because everyone was staring at me from inside the restaurant while they ate. Kind of like dinner and a show, right? Hmm. Maybe not...

Either way, I took a couple more outfit photos while I was on vacation so my next few outfit posts will be of that. I also may post a couple photos from the trip, but possibly just host the photos on another site and leave the link. Because I know some people are annoyed by onslaughts of vacation photos when they expect to just see outfit photos.  But I'm nosey. And I love snooping through everyone's vacation photos. So to accommodate both, I will probably host the photos elsewhere and leave a link. :) Hope you all had a great week!

  6. Fazoli's photo shoot, haha, that's gotta be a first in the blogosphere. You look fabulous, per usual. I'm with you for wearing a maxi for traveling though-- it really is the best. Sometimes I feel bad that guys don't get to wear maxis. And then I remember they get to pee standing up, and I feel less bad.

  9. Look at you, cutie! I love your outfit - so pretty! I'm so excited to see all your vacation pictures! I love when my favorite bloggers give glimpses into their lives outside of what they're wearing...and since I'm not going on any vacations this summer (booooo), I'll live vicariously through your pictures!!

  10. I love wearing a maxi dress when I want to be cute and comfortable! They are the best! (And I also have a few I snagged at Wal-Mart- they have a lot of cute maxi dresses!)

    Oh, flip-flops! I live in Fort Collins, CO and everyone here wears flip-flops all the time. I have only 1 pair I bought for a luau themed party. People here think it's strange I don't wear them but I don't really find them very comfortable.

    Welcome back from vacation! I really missed your blog when you were busy with other things. Please keep updating! :)
