Got my window open wide.

Hey guys. If you know me, you know I like to blog right on schedule and I am currently off schedule!
Sometimes it's hard to find motivation to write and I don't like posts with no writing. You guys know what I'm talking about don't you? You do because sometimes I go to your blogs and you haven't been updating regularly. Tisk, tisk! ;) Well, here we go! Motivation, be damned! I mean....lack of motivation....be damned! (sorry, I guess I need to go to Disneyland)

I watched Splash last night for the first time. I'd never even realized I hadn't seen it. I haven't stopped thinking about it and it's endless plot holes. I could go on and on about the plot holes. They are making me mad. BUT, it definitely made me want really long crimped hair again.

I love this dress because it's got the dip back thing working for it and it's most likely from the 80s. Looks like someone in the 80s had a crystal ball and saw me finding this dress in 2012 when the dip back hem is in full swing. Anyway, totally perfect for 80 degree weather. I have been so spoiled lately. It feels like summer already and it is making me so happy. We have finally been able to take walks again. We're on a mission to find the new Father of the Bride neighborhood since it was my very favorite place to take walks in Pasadena. We'll find it, there just aren't as many sidewalks here for some reason.

I'm very excited about the Spring and Summer. Oops, think I already covered that in the last 25 posts. ♥ It's just that it's 8:00 AM and Gabe is still sleeping. Birdie is here on the couch with me and we are listening to so many birds chirp through the open window and the sun is shining through the stair's railway. It's a beautiful picture. We are so blessed to live in this house. So blessed that it's so beautiful here and all the trees are blooming and everything in turning a bright, beautiful shade of green. AH!

Anyway, here's my outfit. ♥









Wearing:
Dress: Fancy Treehouse
Boots: Swedish Hasbeens
Backpack: Romwe


Have a great week everybody. I am going to work like a busy worker bee and get lots of things done.
Off to check out your blogs now. Bye!

  20. I love that movie..I mean, at least I did when I last saw it which was probably 15 years ago. You could even pull off crimped hair...start the trend! :) I'm sure I could find my old crimper in my parents house somewhere. I remember one time in 4th grade I made the mistake of crimping my bangs hahahha. wow.

  21. I absolutely LOVE your dress! Where did you get it? I've been looking for a dip dress for ages, but nice ones are so hard to find. I'm glad you're writing again.

  23. Hey Coury,
    I was wondering if you were going to post your FAQs anytime.

  24. I like this outfit. But that's normal. I can't believe you just saw Splash! You totally have her hair.

  25. coury are you gonna crimp your hair like daryl hannah or were you kidding? now everybody is going to tell you how much you look like her. :)

  26. Shari, I fully intend to...it's just taking me a very very long time!

  27. Ohhh try out Richland Park off West End and Sylvan Park. Both neighborhoods have side walks, the friendliest people on earth, beautiful blooming trees, and the quaintest little houses. I LOVE these two neighborhoods and even though my husband and I live just across the street in Sylvan Heights we still drive over there to take a long walk with our dog. Afterwards you can go to Dose for local coffee!

  28. The weather is looking mighty fine in Nashville. Over here, it's sunny but cold. The chill could cut me, it's that cold. Well, for me anyway. Lots of people are loving it. Love that springy dress.

  33. You look so very spring! That dress is wonderful on you. And I remember reading a tweet about how people said you wear too much blush. Well, I most definitely DON'T agree. You look like a princess & I even bought the same blush as you (embarrassing). :)

  35. My mom told me that in the 80s they played Splash on the Disney channel!! I couldn't believe it because I saw it a year or two ago and didn't know there was nudity in it. When I told my mom then she told me about when it was on T.V. for kids. . .I was pretty surprised.

    Anyway, I saw you didn't have comments for the beautiful red dress and I wanted to say how lovely it was!!
