How nice of me to wear this awesome pea coat twice without taking any photos of it buttoned-up, Iknowright. This was my birthday present to myself, because, how can I have a pixie haircut without owning a pea coat? My brain people.



This is actually the outfit I wore to my cousin’s wife’s baby shower a few weeks back. I was a little nervous about attending a baby shower because I really did not know what they would entail. I pictured that one episode of Gilmore Girls where Lorelei and Rory are trapped at one with drunken women fanatically yelling “Take the deviled eggs!”. Instead the whole set-up was adorable, every pinterest user’s dream I tell you. Cute little decorations everywhere, delicious food, mimosas, pink lemonade, and loads of wine. I got to know my cousin’s wife, Jessica, a little better; she’s really cool and going to be an awesome mom. The best part was talking to my Grandma (my father’s mother), who I rarely get to see.



I also was offered a job at Starbucks at the shower by some woman who knows a manager who runs one at a mall near me. I respectfully declined, as I don’t like people that much.

    Was this your first baby shower that you attended? That is so cute that you were nervous about it!! I used to go to a few of them when I was a child so I guess I never really thought of things as you have. I think I've been to loads since. You are so cute.

    Every woman should have a classic pea coat. Every woman :) These photos are so beautiful, and of course, I am so happy to see someone else wearing mustard tights :)

    Hahaha oh god the idea of a baby shower terrifies me!! Probably because of tv shows, you're so right. All I can think of is the one in Sex and the City where the lady stole Charlotte's baby name or something?? Oh man. XD Anyway, you look so classy in your peacoat! And I continue to LOVE your haaiiirrrr. <333

    I hosted a baby shower two years ago and it's awesome. I think I'm watching too much of Barney Stinson. LOL. Love that show, btw.

    On a different note, I sort of wanna work in Starbucks. It's on my bucket list. I just want to try working as a barista.

    I think I'm a bit off topic here, too. I can't believe your boots are thrifted. Looks so damn great to me! I kinda think you can't buy them, you gotta thrift those good boots
