meet the photographer and other fun stuff.




(I hope you chuckled at those as much as I did. There was a good amount of ladylike (ha!) snorting and rolling on the floor over here.)

Cameron, blog readers.
blog readers, my photographer, little bro, and fellow cohort in anything that involves chocolate, Cameron.

he's cute.  nearly 14. and as tall as me. <--- this little lady (that's me!) is not ok with this. emphasis on little.

In other news I finally got around to setting up a pinterest and twitter. It's about time! Am I right or am I right? So hop your little bums right over there and follow me so I don't feel like a total loser!

Happy Thursday, lovelies!

And for those who have asked, I do have a bloglovin' account! See it here!

that time there was a rainbow coming out of my head








skirt: F21, shirt: Old Navy, bracelets: gifts from my Nana, sandals, necklace, sunglasses: Target, ring: gift from Lily,

Sometimes I start editing my photos and realize I have rainbows sprouting out of my head.
And sometimes I get that song stuck in my head...double rainbow...so intense...
Sometimes I dance around in grocery stores with my new broom ("no really. that wasn't me hitting your bum. It was my new broom! see, it hit your bum. not me..")
Sometimes I like to add random periods. just. because.
Sometimes my hair forgets it's not a poodle.
Sometimes I'm sitting in the car. driving places. singing my little head off. And I look over and the guy sitting in the car beside me is singing the same song. (darn you, radio!)
Sometimes this above situation results and rapid radio channel surfing, awkward avoidance of eye contact, and pulling away from him as fast as possible (afap?).
Sometimes it results in synchronized steering wheel hitting and head nodding.

Happy Tuesday, lovelies!

top 5 clothing loves by jessica chronicled

Hi guys! I've got a special surprise here for you! The beautiful Jessica behind jessica chronicled is going to show you her go-to style pieces (and boy, are they lovely!). I'm crazy excited about this guest post (think jumping out of my seat and spinning around excited). Jessica's blog is one of my favorites. She has killer style and the cutest since of humor. And she just got a puppy! So, my lovely randomness readers, let me introduce you to Jessica!

______________________________________________________________________________

Hi Randomness readers! I'm so thrilled to be guest posting here for Addie today! My name is Jessica and I blog over at jessica chronicled. I write a lot about style, photography, faith, and the two loves of my life...my hubby and our new pup. Here, I'm going to share with you a few of the "go-to" pieces in my closet, that is, the pieces that I always turn to when I need to complete an outfit, when I'm not sure what to wear, or that just go with everything.

1. The black lace vest.


The thing I love most about this vest is that it goes with anything, but I guess that's kind of true about all things lace. I can put this over a tshirt, a button up, a dress, or pretty much anything other than sweatshirts and blazers. It can be dressed up for work with a skirt or dressed down for the weekend with some jeans.

2. Tall boots.


In all honesty, those mornings when have class and I don't pick clothes out the night before, I usually end up putting on jeans + these boots and THEN deciding what to pair with them. Basically because I know I can pair them with so much, I just go ahead and put them on. I've worn these so many times the heels are wearing down. I usually wear them to class or for weekends, but I did dress them up with a lace skirt and wear it to church.

3. A pair of pink tights.


I think every lady needs to add at least one pair of colored tights to her wardrobe. I have several colors, but the pink pair is what I wear most often, probably because it's a little less bright. And also, because I love pink. Colored tights are great because 1)They let you wear tights in cooler weather without freezing 2)They add a pop of color to an outfit and 3)Sometimes they save you from having to shave your legs (it's true). I really love pairing them with black and white, but recently I've been a little more daring and paired them with more color. Either way, you can't go wrong.

4. Red peep toes wedges.


If my blog readers had to pick one item that I've worn way too much, I'd bet it would be these red shoes. I'm pretty sure the cost per wear is down to about 10 cents and I'm not done with them yet! The easy thing about these shoes is that they tend to go with so many colors and outfits. Sometimes, I may be not so crazy about my outfit, but after adding these red shoes, it has the pop or personality that it needed. And I definitely don't limit myself to wearing these with black and white, and usually, I don't even have anything else red in my entire outfit. I let these wedges take the stage.

5. A striped sweater in neutral colors.


Having a striped sweater in neutral colors (like black and white) is a wonderful thing. I have a plethora of scarves, and basically I can wear any of them with this sweater and my outfit looks at least a little different than before. And it's completely effortless to throw on this sweater and a scarf, there's no thought process to it. Another thing I love is that this is the easiest wardrobe piece I have to work with pattern mixing. Stripes tend to go with anything. You can pair stripes with polka dots, or plaid, but you can't always pair polka dots and plaid. The basic line pattern goes better with most patterns, and the neutral color scheme allows you to pair it with any color. And as warm weather approaches, you can also change this out for a striped tee or tank.

Well there you have it! My five, most worn pieces in my wardrobe! I hope some of this was helpful to you. Maybe you now have new ideas for how to wear pieces you already own, or maybe you have a better idea of some basic pieces you can add to your wardrobe. And most of these pieces can be found for pretty inexpensive prices. And thanks so much to Addie for having me guest post!

Happy Styling!

minding my own little business.








lace tank: gift, jeans: old navy, wrap: c/o my mom, boots: thrifted, necklace: F21, ring: made, grey tank: target, belt: thrifted 
Hi Guys. I'm actually being summoned by a pile of assignments (those little stinkers) but decided that you all were just too exciting to pass up on. At least that's what I'm telling myself. I'm really good at avoiding situations by convincing myself they're really not what they appear. (me blogging is me blogging because I looooove to blog not because I'm avoiding piles of assignments.) So let's not spoil this little secret of mine. I knew I could count on you.

Boy! Wind can be a meany sometimes. I was just trying to mind my own little business, doing my own little posing thing and bam! it has to come and make everything awkward. Let's just say the whole in like a lion thing is pretty stinking right. chiffon skirts on a windy day are a no-no. (If I flashed you, so sorry.) Thankfully this chick was prepared and had a pair of jeans just waiting to be thrown on.
yes. I'm one of those girls.  
So take that wind! There is no taking me down with your blustery self! The posing must go on! My dedication astounds me sometimes too.
