Abstract Absurdity

Today is National Absurdity Day (there’s a day for everything), so the theme for November’s Thrifty Six collaboration is absurd outfits. My initial thought went to a huge, teal, tulle Betsy Johnson dress that I thrifted for $1 and have never worn (because it’s so out there), but then I remembered it’s still at my parents’ house in Boise. So I had to go with Plan B instead. Since I don’t have any one thrifted item that’s particularly absurd, my goal was to put together a few of my funkier thrifted pieces for an overall absurd outfit.

There has to be something for everyone with all of her different styles over the years! Continue reading “Inspired by Taylor Swift Eras”

I’ve been to Las Vegas countless times to visit family, but I’ve never really experienced Sin City as an adult, aside from one night of bachelorette festivities to celebrate my sister-in-law a few years ago. My boyfriend and I thought it would be a fun (and relatively easy to plan) vacation to squeeze in before the end of the summer. We spent it lounging by the pool, getting dressed up, eating delicious food, and of course, gambling! I didn’t take that many photos and tried to enjoy just being in the moment for once, so here are only a few pics from throughout the weekend. Continue reading “Weekend Trip to Las Vegas”
