// Victoria from Oh So Pretty recently got married and her photos are simply gorgeous. Congratulations to the happy couple!
// I’m one of those people who checks the weather every morning so I can try to dress appropriately and be prepared for precipitation. Well, I don’t know what happened when I was looking up the weather on Tuesday because I did not realize it was supposed to rain. I’m running a little late for work and 30 seconds after I leave my apartment, it starts to drizzle. I figure it’s too late to turn back and a little drizzle never killed anyone, so I press on. Now it’s been about three minutes since I left my apartment and it is pouring. I’m already soaked and if I turn around, I will most certainly be late. So instead, I arrive at work looking like a drowned rat (so much for spending 15 minutes curling my hair!) and make a beeline for the bathroom. After I’ve wrung out my hair and toweled off as much as I could, I head to my desk. Five minutes later, I pass a window and the sun is absolutely shining. What in the what?! Talk about flash storms (I’m still a little bitter, if you can’t tell ;).
// This month, The B Bar is talking about work/life balance and I thought it was really interesting to read about how Victoria manages her time.
// Have you seen the Milly x Kohls collection yet? How fun is this lemons dress?
// Shannon wrote about 10 great quotes from 10 great books and I love the quotes she picked.
// Soooo, Corina posted the most adorable cat wallpaper yesterday [insert heart eyes emoji here].

I’m mixing up the genres this month because I feel like I burned out on holiday romances last year 😅 Have you read any of these?
[CD: Nnenna holds three books in front of a tree, then shows the covers of the following books: OUR MISSING HEARTS, KISS HER ONCE FOR ME, and FIVE SURVIVE.]

hahah ohhh no, the rain story! that stuff drives me absolutely crazy. i do that all the time- figure that taking the 10 seconds to go back home is just too much. I always regret it afterwards. There’s nothing like being at work or school and being sopping wet. One time my socks got wet at school and I literally went home. Got on the train and blew off my 7 hour day haha.
Also, just checked out that blogger’s wedding photos and they’re BEAUTIFUL. Her bouquet was unreal.

Haha, I just had to vent somewhere! In hindsight, I probably should have turned around and been about 5 minutes late to work. It would have been better than being damp and uncomfortable for about half the day! Ugh, and wet socks is the worst :/
That is the worst! I hate being rained on. Of course it’s less of an issue since I drive to work (and everywhere) but still, nothing is worse than leaving the house in suede shoes and then finding yourself having to navigate muddy puddles you were not anticipating.

There’s more rain coming this week. I’m going to be prepared this time!!
I had not seen Milly X Kohls and I love it! I want some of those florals!
I’ve taken to carrying an umbrella with me pretty much every day since mid-February. We’ve been having some seriously crazy coastal weather this year!
Isn’t Milly x Kohls really cute?! If there’s a chance of precipitation, I’m normally carrying an umbrella, but that day I must have read the weather forecast wrong, or something. Who knows?
