Thirty-Three

WE MADE IT!!

After a long, stressful two days we finally made it to Seattle late Sunday night. As soon as I walked in my old bedroom I had an immediate settling feeling and sigh of relief. Not just because I had sat through a 12 hour drive or two days of packing and moving hell but also because I knew this was the start of a new chapter in my life.

P.S. Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful comments in my last post and hello to new friends/followers! Forgive me for my absence the last couple of days but now that I'm finally starting to settle in and I'm past all this madness I can start focusing on my blog more and giving it the love it deserves!

And so begins my last week in San Francisco.... (Part 1)

Sunday:

The week couldn't have begun better. I started it with brunch with my aunt at Cavallo Point in Sausalito, right over the Golden Gate bridge. I'm so glad I was able to see my aunt before I left for Seattle, she's such a wonderful woman and such a fun person to be around. I always say that I'm going to be like her when I'm older (as in the wild, fun and loud aunt). Later in the evening I met up with Avalonne, Ashley, and Raina for some shopping, food and coffee. I've been trying to be good about not spending money but I couldn't help but buy the blouse that I'm wearing the in the very last photograph from Forever 21 and a hat from Urban Outfitters that was on sale for $10..I mean c'mon!

Monday:

Spent the day packing, packing, packing! Then headed over to my friend Sean's apartment to take a breather and watch Private Benjamin.

Tuesday:

Swimming and Barbecuing in Marin with all my favorite boys. These are probably the people I will miss the most when I leave. My most fun and memorable moments are with these boys!

Wednesday:

Had a picnic in Union Square with my good friend Lauren and then we went for pedicures afterwards at a nearby salon. Unfortunately, my only documentation of this is on my purchased disposable camera, which you will have to wait to see once photos are developed. But it was a wonderful day altogether! We spent most of our pedicure being hassled by the pedicurist's there; trying to get us spend more money on things we didn't need. We were amused by it. Below is the outfit I wore today though.

MAD HATTER MONDAY

(1940's)

This has to be one of my favorite era's as far as hats go. They really begin to define an entire style and become the icing on the cake to each one of these outfits photographed.

I know you're all very familiar with this hat by now but I can't help ending up styling it with so many outfits..it's the perfect match!
