Yeah so what if there is still like 20 feet of snow outside? The birds are a chirpin', the sun's a shinin', the breeze outside is balmy. Its practically spring today in New Hampshire and I could not be happier, hanging out listening to The Rolling Stones Flowers album on vinyl, sipping on some tea writing this post. Also, I am thrilled to have received my Fieldguided tote from Anabela just in time for Valentine's Day. It is so perfect for lugging around all of my junk and it looks so pretty while doing so!
My outfit today is not so creative, just my favorite high waisted BDG jeans, a  forever 21 crop top, the color of which I am obsessed with, and my brown equestrian boots.I've been pretty lazy getting dressed lately, mainly sticking to cardigans and jeans. I also got my hair cut yesterday, I'm satisfied with the results, although its a bit shorter than I wanted. I'll get some photos for you guys, but I need to give it the obligatory few days for it to become accustomed to my head.

Happy Valentines everybody! Sorry I'm not looking too loving in my photos today. I was rather annoyed with my camera which I had to prop up on a chair due to the fact the cheap thingy that holds the camera to the tripod snapped off. I'm thinking because my camera is about to bite the dust, I may invest in a Digital SLR as a "I've got a big girl job" now present.

So besides my crummy camera, I am in a really good mood! Jeramy and I had a nice and relaxing weekend and although neither one of us are big advocates for Valentine's Day we decided to get all dressed up and go out for dinner. He cleans up very well in a suit and tie, if I do say so myself. We also watched The Fountain, a very underrated film by Darren Arronofsky( the Director of Black Swan).

Well, I hope all of you have a great day filled with much love...and chocolate. Copious amounts of chocolate.

Outfit Details: Blouse, Leather Skirt...Thrifted, Thigh highs...Target, T-strap clogs...Forever 21

This outfit was inspired by the lovely Emily of It Girl Rag Doll. I simply adore her effortless, vintage style. She has been rocking a similar up-do lately and I decided to try it out myself via this Scissor Sisters tutorial.

So as you can tell, New England continues to be schooled by mother nature in the snow department. The past week was spent holed up with a nasty cold watching all five seasons of Daria on DVD. OH and I got a new job as a customer service associate with a major financial planning company! I get benefits and get to wear awesome fancy work clothes, instead of the drab all black waitressing get-up. Win! 

...And what up with my camera making my legs look like they're disappearing??
