IN THE NAVY

I had a long day at work today. Not long as in bad, quite literally long as in hours. 

When I finally made my way home, I ate dinner with my Mr.{who had dinner ready + waited for me},

 and then proceeded to stare at my laptop... curled up on the couch... not feeling very inspired to write a post.

Sometime when my brain just feels spent, and I'm not feeling particular creative, I look to Pinterest for inspiration. Searching my boards for pins that spark an idea. 

This post was inspired by the image of this pretty girl in the headscarf... and the coolest bookmark ever.

WHAT I WORE {FOR MY SISTER}

This post is for my sister. While we were on the phone last night, she said that I needed to do an outfit post. According to the big sis, it is fine that I have ventured away from my blog strictly being a style blog {more here}, but I have gotten TOO far away from fashion-related posts. So... this one is for my big sister. Kate, I promise to insert a bit more "fashion, recipes, and personal stuff". Big sisters... they know what they are talking about. 

ps. These are my new-ish Warby Parker glasses {talked about here}. I keep forgetting to do a post on the pair I decided on - the Winston Old Fashioned Fade!

The guest bedroom is still a work in progress, so judge us accordingly. And Bailey really likes to be in outfit posts.

WE LOVE WARBY PARKER

Meet my good friend, Cydney, below. She writes her own fabulous blog here. 

C is wearing Warby Parker glasses, a Marc Jacobs jacket and a Stella McCartney blouse. C introduced me to Warby Parker a few weeks ago. Now, two rounds of home try-ons later my own glasses are on their way! Quite honestly they will be my first "cool" pair of glasses I've ever owned. It'll be nice to have a pair I can actually wear in public. My current specs are not suitable outside of our little apartment! Warby Parker is sort of the Tom's of eye-wear. For every pair purchased they donate a pair to someone in need. They have a great home try on program where they send you 5 pair for free! They even pay for shipping both ways. The best part is that the glasses are only $95 {$30 extra for the better lenses, which they recommend if your prescription is over a certain strength, but still a steal for trendy glasses!}I'll report back when I get my glasses!

We decided I should try on Cydney's glasses {she has the Huxley}. This is not the pair I ended up getting, but they were in the running. I hope I like the pair I ended up choosing for myself!
