Sun-less Sunday


[Check out these beautiful pictures by Elle Moss]
I've been in quite a mellow mood this weekend, which could be attributed to the weather, or possibly because I'm just utterly exhausted from my week of classes, especially since I am still healing from this cold that I can't seem to get rid of! Either way, I've had no desire to go out with a group or do anything moderately strenuous. So I've lounged around and watched movies. It's been glorious! With less than one week left until spring break I am more than ready to get off campus and make the five hour drive north to Ohio! Not to mention I'll get to spend some quality time with the boy :) It's been almost three weeks since I've gotten to see him so this break will give us 10 days together! On a side note, this will be my last spring break as a student. Since I will be finishing up in December I won't be here next spring semester. Oh, how I can't wait! I discovered Polyvore a few months ago and must say that I am already addicted. Here are a few sets that I randomly created this weekend...


I Love these shoes from Ruche. They are
so vintage and just adorable.

I just recently bought this shirt and love it!
I managed to get the last one of this style on
the rack. I was very happy. They had other colors,
but this one was my favorite. So far I've only worn it
once with my tangerine colored cardigan, skinny jeans,
and a pair of brown flats (due to the cold Ohio
weather). I'd like to try it out with sandals next time,
when its warmer!

I also recently purchased these olive colored flats
from Payless. I haven't had a chance to wear them
yet. I think I'm waiting for the perfect opportunity
to come along..
.
Speaking of Payless, these heels are from
the Lela Rose collection for Payless. I think
they are super cute!

This is a dress I found on SarahSeven's Etsy.
It is gorgeous!

How cute is this? Although I am not a coffee
lover myself, I do appreciate a good cup of tea.
However, I thought this might be a good gift for
my younger sister. She IS a coffee addict and also
a college student. What do you think? It's kind of
expensive (for a student's budget), but it's definitely
unique and creative! I found this at KnitStorm's Etsy
shop. They also have a variety of colors!

Remodeling Ideas I found from random blogs:



So my boyfriend, Travis, and I have been dating off and on
since the fall of our senior year of high school ( almost four years).
He is in school in Ohio and I am here in Tennessee. The distance
is difficult, but we are surviving. Anyway, I guess you could say
we are finally in the pre-engagement stage of our relationship.
We went ring shopping the last time I was home, and I know that
he has been saving since last year. As of right now he lives in his
grandparents' old house that they rent out with his friend and his
brother. However, once we get married next year they will be gone
and it will just be him and I. The bad part is, the house is a little old
(not too horrible), but could definitely use some remodeling. I've been
collecting random ideas here and there and just can't wait to get started
on the remodeling (which probably won't be for awhile). So far I'm
thinking about doing navy, eggshell white, and a cornflower blue in the
bedroom, seeing as it already has a grayish blue carpet and one brown
paneled wall that his grandparents are set on keeping. I really like the
picture of the fireplace with all of the candles on top. I think it sets a
really cozy mood.
The house has three bedrooms, one bath, a living room,
a kitchen/dining room, and an unfinished basement. We
have already decided to turn one of the bedrooms into a
guest bedroom/art room for me and another bedroom
into a music room for him. I thought these pencil cups
would be perfect for his music room!

Well, those are my random thoughts so far today. I might
be back with more as the evening progresses!
