A Three-Legged Fox

Today, I saw a three-legged fox! No kidding! I was driving by a field when I saw the little red guy, so I pulled over to watch him. At first I thought he was injured and limping, but then he turned a little bit and I saw there was no right front leg! He didn't seem in pain and he eventually sat down to watch me, watch him. After a few minutes, although I didn't want to go, I got back in my car and sloooooowly drove off, watching him in the mirror until he was out of site. I've decided to call him Calvin.

A Trip to the Sea

Today my friend and I took on the long trip to the sea, where we made some lovely photos. The dress a simple blue, thrifted for $3 with a pink scarf accenting the middle, also thirfted for a wonderful 50 cents, and then of course, my hat, which I bought new. I have always enjoyed going to thrift shops, and yard sales, but this summer I've apparently been bitten by the Super Thrifty Bug, 'cause I can't stop. I have found many great finds with in the last few days, and I am itching to go again. I've been looking up thrift/antique stores with in 30 miles of where I live, and am going to try to go to them alllllll.










 I absolutely adore the ocean, I wish I lived near it so I could go there everyday, because I would. Rain, shine, snow, or windy, the beach is never ceases to stun me with it's beauty.

See you soon!

Fields of Flowers

Sorry for being so quiet lately, I've been working like a maniac trying to save money, and the past few days I've come home just to beat to do anything but sleep. But I am here now, and hope to start writing something everyday.

I bought this dress at Forever XXI, and I absolutely adore it! Most certainly my new favorite, it is a seemingly simple dress with a subtle pizazz thanks to the open back. I've been wearing it so much, it had so many colors in, it matching it with sweaters and accessories is pretty easy, not to mention is super comfy. I paired it up with a brown leather watch and shoe, large key earrings, and a reverse milk-maid braid, which I made up on my own one rainy day.. Although  someone has probably done it already.. Anyway, something isn't quite right to me as I look back at these photos, and I wonder if  its my accessory choice that throws it off.  Earrings or watch? I'm not too sure, so what do you think? I'd love to hear!






The fields around my house are so beautiful, filled with crickets and colors and other wonderful crawly things. So I grabbed the tripod, camera and Erik (the dog!) and took some pictures.
