Funnest. Pants. Ever.

Funnest!  Lol - Between my denim button up dress and these new pink slacks, I've had no use lately for anything else in my Tiny Closet.  I have been practically living in these pants.  Dare I say they're cooler than harem pants?   ...nah.  But still, they're dope, yes?
pants: thrifted / tank top: Target / earrings: H&M / sandals: Dumond / sunglasses: Anne Klein (thrifted) 

I found these pants at Value Village for, let's see, $6.99 I think?  You might have already seen them here.  At the time, I was focusing on my hair and glasses and wished I'd had more time to get pictures of the rest of my outfit.  Well, voila!  I think I will have them in every frickin' color.

The sandals I'm wearing have become a wild card for my Tiny Closet.  Mixing them with pretty much anything brings a nice surprise to my outfits - the teal/mint color is so fresh!  And I get excited about mixing them with other colors, especially with these summery pants.


 I've been helping Theo renovate one of his properties (I photo-shopped the paint stains from my arms and ankles, lol!).  It's been pretty extensive and for now, I have zero time for anything else!  In return though, for my hands-on help, he's been taking me out to my favorite restaurants and joints for lunch.  The man knows me well.

Yesterday, we took a break from EVERYTHING, got in the car and drove to Vancouver, B.C..  It was a day of shopping, eating and Instagramming.  When we arrived in town and realized our camera had been left at home, it was actually kind of nice not having it for a change.  

So check back on Friday for my road-trip Instagrammy-wammies aaaaand 
a new pair of hot heels!  Yeah baby :)

Having My Cake & Eating It... A Little

Yesterday, Theo and I had our cake tasting appointment with "Baked" custom cakes boutique in West Seattle.  Aside from doing wonders with fondant and buttercream, the actual cake flavors they whipped up for were heaven.  Slices of heaven!
 So on the top row left to right, we have a champagne cake with chocolate ganache, coconut cream and walnut, and then lemon curd with raspberry(?) I forget...  The second row is red velvet and cream cheese frost, deluxe chocolate with chocolate ganache and chocolate raspberry with raspberry buttercream.  
We decided on two flavors for a two-tiered fondant cake: the champagne and the deluxe chocolate ganache.  Whoohoo!
I also decided to wear a pair of bright coral vintage pleated pants from Value Village, a floral scarf for my hair and some old school vintage glasses that auto-tint in sunlight.  I actually wear glasses on the days I decide not to wear eye-makeup.  Do I need glasses?  No.  But glasses act as a wonderful substitute and dress the eyes well when there is no time for makeup. 
I will be wearing these pants again soon of course.  And before the Summer truly cools down, I'll definitely be showing them off with my "Dr. Suess" sandals :)

Now go have some cake!
