Green With Envy

Forever 21...you cruel mistress. Why must you tempt me with your dresses? Sean says no more dresses for awhile, but I'm not sure I can stick to that.....





I'm all about green this summer. With my complexion and hair I look better in cool colors, like greens, blues, pinks, etc.

Today has been an interesting day. For starters I went to get my teeth cleaned. If you know me well, then you know I HATE going to the dentist. Mainly because I have weak teeth and there is always something wrong with them. Today's experience was actually somewhat relaxing if you can believe that. The lady who cleaned my teeth was AMAZING. I told her so after she was done.

Afterwards I was on my way to the PX and cut through the parking lot of the USO and lo and behold there were two baby sparrows hopping around, complete with a cat stalking them. A soldier and I scooped them up, evidently he'd saved them a few minutes earlier from the road. Mom was nowhere to be found, so my boss took them inside. Sadly they both died. One of them was especially sassy, so it was quite sad when he died. I hate when things like that happen.

Oh that's so sad about the birdies! I'm such a softy for animals.

OOOOH! I love those dresses and I bet you would look fab in them! But MAN I hate when I find wounded things and they die one me! Makes me mad because it makes me sad:p

I literally made the sad face when you got to the part about the birds dying. Sad! I'm glad you guys tried to help them, though.

I wish I could buy clothes online, but I always need to try them before I buy them...

I love the pattern on that first dress.

My brothers and I used to try saving baby birds when we were kids. Not many made it and it was always a little heart breaking.

Poor birdies. By the way the dress in the top image is super cute!

Sarah said...

I hate how baby animals die. =[ It seems to happen a lot, which I guess is natural but still.
Those dresses are super cute btw. Maybe tell Sean he can buy something on eBay if you can get something from Forever 21? =]

Aww poor birds! Those dresses are so cute! I really like the second one! I need to nix the clothes shopping now for a LONG time. I spent way more than I should have recently and need to go back on my spending diet.

Poor birds...I love the first dress, it's super cute. I'm a rare breed, I love the dentist! I always feel so fresh when I leave.

Jessica said...

I just made my first Forever 21 purchase over the weekend. I can't wait for it to come in..hope everything fits though. How do their sizes run? I apparently missed that 2nd dress though because i would have been all over it. I've been loving blue and green together!

Jane said...

You always post pictures of the cutest clothes! :-)

How sad about the birds :(

I love the dresses - green is my favorite color and I'm enjoying all of it that is around this season!

I too am in love with that paisley one on top. This summer I've got a slight addiction with dresses too. I'm just waiting for payday in a few weeks to go shopping. :)

Love you, keep your chin up
