Tiptoe through the Tulips

This outfit was what I wore last Saturday when I was all over the place with my friends in the cities. We did a bit of breakfasting, recorded a fun song (see yesterday's post), hung out at the Mall of America, had some great barbecue for supper, and even some quality time just talking in the evening. A very full and fabulous day! 

I have to say I was a bit disappointed at the mall. I guess I've gotten so into second hand shopping that real stores just don't do it for me anymore. For the most part the clothes are cheaply made and I always wonder about the origins of the clothing also. I really want to start knowing where my clothing comes from and that it was ethically made. Plus (duh) the mall was crazy busy because we went there on a Saturday. I just can't handle that high concentration of people. The day was made better spent with those I love though, so who really cares how the shopping went? Can you believe it-all I bought all weekend was a pearly beret (4 dollars!) and a bag of chewy sprees for the 6 hour drive (seriously why are those things so GOOOOD). I was a very good girl I must say.

I wore these loafers all weekend long. They are so very comfortable, I was pleasantly surprised about that! I love when I thrift shoes that actually have arch support and cushion in them. I'll take comfy leather shoes for four dollars any day!

Some other highlights of the day: We played 8bit Wheel of Fortune on our NES emulator on Saturday night. It came complete with a hilarious Vanna White and we got into teams to battle out the puzzles. There were some really hilarious NES games back in the day. We went through some favorites like Where's Waldo, and had a good laugh at the Barbie game too!

Also, us girls were getting antsy for some alone time so we told the guys we were just going to follow them back to their house, but we took a little hour and a half detour to get shamrock shakes and happy meals at McDonalds (for the record, I didn't eat anything there-I haven't eaten fast food in a couple of years!). We just sat in the booth talking about everything and it was so great to catch up sans testosterone. Sometimes girls just need alone time to gab :)

I have some pretty funny friends. This is a house of guys and they have the most amazing couch with TULIPS on it in their living room. Seriously I would have stolen it if it could have fit in our car. You boys better watch your backs. I'M COMING BACK FOR THE COUCH! But seriously though-the cutest thing ever.

Also, a big THANK YOU to my beautiful friend Rachelle for taking my photos! It was so much fun to do photoshoots with her and I wish I could just keep her in my pocket with me wherever I go :)

Hope you all have a lovely Friday! Any weekend plans for you guys and dolls?
God Bless!
