Love Pink

When my sister and I went to Victoria's Secret's Semi-Annual Sale, it was madness.

Madness as in I grabbed way too many things and very nearly bought all of them. As my wallet thanked me for not doing so, I delight to share with you my haul 


Halter Mesh Bra, 'Flirt' Nail-polish, Navy lace bandeau, Summer Daze Spray (WHY DOES THIS SMELL SO GOOD?!), PINK Spring Break: Jasmine Lime Self-Tan Body Mist


The bandeau, surprisingly, is super versatile! I've been wearing it every weekend with my low-cut, sheer tops. Really helps me keep cool and the lace is too cute.

However, I had a problem with the nail-polish..


It was flaky, too liquid-y, and overall a poor polish. I reckon it might have been the base coat that ruined it, however the polish itself still wasn't all that great.

Sore and sad, I went to exchange it for a 2-in-1 Base Top Coat. Course it does not end there, and I ended up being sucked into an even greater sale (after several days Beauty Products are 75% off and All Bras have an extra 20% off!).


Frozen apple & sparkling cassis smells divine and the left container is a mousse. It looks so good, I would eat it >if it did not caution against it<. The new polish isn't quite oxblood colored, but it sure lives up to its name, 'Do Not Disturb' (and let us not ponder on its name, please).

'Twas 80º...

... and the weather refuses to let me go! 

Being gripped by humidity. Someone call Superman. While I'm aware he's not the best solution, he's sure something isn't he? Speaking of him, this year's movies are insane, I must get out and watch them all!

I've yet to own a bra that's suitable for backless tops, however a lace racerback's just as good. This means racerback tanks and growing up!

'Twas 68º...

... and the weather is purrrrrrfect.
lyk, srsly.

It's as if the sunshine and breeze knew exactly what each other were doing (for once).

I bought this adorable lace number a long time agoWhatever incorporates lace and a peter pan collar MUST be perfect, non? I'm ecstatic to pair it with tights and ankle boots when the weather turns cold and stays cold.

Note on the jacket: a serious, beautiful fit. The cut, color, and style are so simple, it matches everything .

p.s. please excuse my poor facial expressions and the tri-pod's cameos. I was in quite the rush today and, well, "tri-p" deserves recognition.

Baltimore Bullet

I've been really slacking, I know, and shame on me for doing so!

But maybe it's time I relaxed and just threw care to the wind? Like, take a vacation or not finish summer readin' for the new  school year...

What am I thinking.

I shall be gone off (to chase my M. Phelps) which unforts means that I won't be able to update the blog! BUMMED. 
So here's some pretty pictures of inspiration for you pretty inspiring lot, as a bribe sorry.

Lace Mania

Just last week I suffered through Ruffles Mania, and I have almost fully recovered (total lie)when BAM.
Lace hits me again.

Lace has ALWAYS been an immense inspiration and love for me, especially since I'm Detail's biggest advocate.

Soo Lace and I are pretty much soul-mates.

Take a gander at this wonderfully intricate material that not only shall grace my wedding dress, in the faaarrr future, but is a mustmustmust/needneedneed!

(And as usual, Read More--'cuz there are always just too many pictures)

*Also, fabu DIY Lace Shorts here*
