Look y'all, my hair is long enough to pull back into a nubbin of a ponytail! It's been years since I was able to do this, so I might be overly excited about the prospect. It's been nice to pull the hair off my neck with the heat we've been enduring this summer. I have to be careful, though, that I don't fall into that trap of growing my hair out just to put it up all the time like I did in college (the last time I had long hair). Back then my hair was down to the middle of my back, but no one would know, considering all I ever did was twist it up in a scrunchie ... while it was still wet! I know.
Anyway, Sara snagged these comfy shoes for me from UO last week. I love them. She knows me so well, as if there were ever any doubt. She is the genius behind the capsule wardrobe, after all.
Can you believe I've never stepped foot into a Baby Gap? And yet, Alexa is wearing an entire outfit from there. Not planned, even, because when we left the house she was wearing her threadbare slippers. She goes through shoes so fast. We stopped at Children's Orchard to find some more substantial seasonal footwear, and we scored a pair of jellies (!) for $3.99. She loves them, especially the sound they make when they clack on the ground.
Oh man, she needs to knock off the cuteness, it's too epic for me.
ReplyDeleteRIGHT?!
ReplyDeleteYou take some awesome photographs :D I really love them :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy!
ReplyDeleteMy hair is hardly ever long enough to put in in a ponytail either, but right now it is, barely, with lots of curls sticking out on the sides, that is. But it's so hot that sometimes ponytails are pretty necessary!
ReplyDeleteI just want to give her a great, big hug.
