Critters Sweaters, Divergent, and Pistols

I’m in love with this sweater from C Wonder. I have really gotten into Critter sweaters, and am looking to develop my formal sections in closet, which should include cute sweaters. As I am completing my academic wardrobe, I have found many areas where my current closet isn’t formal or classy enough to wear to work as a teacher. By simply putting a collared shirt under a cute sweater, I am now fancy enough for work!

I read the Divergent series last year when they were published. I love post-apocalyptical plots, so when I saw it featured last year on Amazon I snapped it up on my Kindle. Today, I saw that Hulu had a trailer for the movie’s release next year in early 2014. I loved the books so I hope they do a decent job on the movies. Have you read the books? Are you excited to see the movie?

Last week I went to the range with a friend and I learned how to shoot 2 pistols and a shotgun. Going to a range was something on my bucket list, so I felt the need to document this glorious event.

Learning the Shotgun

My bucket list has been a recent topic among some of my friends. There seem to be two camps, one that agrees with my organised plan on how to live a full live. The other camp disagrees, and thinks that I should just live the life that happens, and live spontaneously.

What do you think? Do you have a bucket list? What is on it? Anything I should add to mine?

Love,

Reunited at last!

For the past three months, one of my friends has been living in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She flew home yesterday and we grabbed lunch and gabbed like little birds. We got our nails done and did a bit of boutique jewelry shopping. I picked up a new bangle by Stella and Dot. It’s made by the same company that also makes J. Crew’s bangles, a little tidbit the cashier at Therapy mentioned when I purchased it.

There is something so polished about having your nails done. I’m not sure exactly how, but my outfits feel that much more pulled together when I have cute nails. Illogical, I know. But it’s every little bit true.

I also had fun wearing my new J. Crew flats that I bought a few weeks back. Aren’t they adorable?

I have the gold capped ones and they fit so perfectly!

I had been wanting to bust them out on a fun occasional but nothing had really fit the bill. So, I wore them the whole day and they didn’t give me any blisters, which was surprising since my other J.Crew wedges gave me insane ones earlier this summer.

These are the ones that gave me blisters, but in Navy!

 

Anyway, happy Tuesday!
