Tuesday Treasures

looooving this hat

I will never get enough of triangles^_^


Wow. This organizer is perfection.

Where could I wear this dress?? It's so pretty!

Oh hi there bear!

Today I'm moving all of my treasures into a storage space, since I'll be moving on Friday. I just made my first trip to my storage unit and as I was unloading my things, the man with the unit next to mine offered me his coffee table! It's really pretty and I quickly said please and thank you^_^ Sometimes people's kindness amazes me. It made me want to go give something to a random stranger; I just love blessing people! Now to study for more finals and pray these next few days doesn't kill me! I have a concert tonight and then a little chorale party and then of course more studying. sheesh. OH and just a reminder, I'm announcing the giveaway winner on Friday! So be sure to go sign up below!!

Weekend Wrap Up

This weekend was pretty exciting!! It included quite a lot of animals... which I am totally alright with^_^

Friday: I went over to my voice teacher's house and rode a horse! You can read more about that here.

Saturday: I went to eat sushi with some friends to celebrate our friend Robien's birthday!! It was delicious and it was also exciting to go do something fun for awhile, instead of school stuff... 

Sunday: It was Easter!! Our church had it's very own petting zoo with a zebra! Yep, our church is pretty much amazing^_^ I had a blast petting and holding all the cute baby animals...
I was about ready to run off with that baby goat!! It kept cuddling with me and it was the sweetest!! OH and I also held a baby pig, but there aren't any pictures... It squealed/screamed the entire time, but it was the cutest thing! eee! After our church Easter extravaganza, the Mr. and I went and had ourselves an Urban Day!! I got some great deals at Urban Outfitters and can't wait for it to stop being so cloudy outside so I can wear my new dress! How was your weekend??

I love... Horses

Today I got to go over to my voice teacher's home for a small get together. And after a delicious dinner and a few laughs,  I got to ride her horse!! I haven't ridden a horse since I was a kid and it was pretty amazing! I think they are such beautiful animals and we got along well^_^
I must admit I was pretty nervous at first, but once I got the hang of it I decided that I loved riding!! I want to do it again, and soon hopefully! Do you like horses? I couldn't get over how pretty they were.

Warby Parker

I heard about this company a few months ago and with my terrible memory, I forgot all about it. Luckily I came across it again and just had to share! Alright, so do you like cute glasses? I do! And I really like vintage looking glasses. You know what I like even more than that? Cheap vintage looking glasses! You  know what I like eeeeven mooore than that?? Cheap vintage looking glasses that benefit people in need! Geeze, I'm excited! SO this company, Warby Parker, sells vintage inspired glasses and with every pair purchased, they donate a pair to someone in need. It's a beautiful thing.
Here are a few of the one's I'm interested in! I need your help though, which do you like best?? For my face...
OH and I forgot to share the best part {well, another great part...} They will send you Five pairs to try on and hold on to for five days, get your friends and family's opinions, and then have you ship the four you don't want back and keep the one's you want! All for only $95; which in my opinion is pretty great considering you're really buying two pairs {one for you, one for someone in need} I love this and I'm pretty sure here in the next few weeks I will be doing this. I'll be sure to get your feedback once I get my five in the mail^_^

I hope I look as cute as this girl^_^ hehe. Hope you had a wonderful Tuesday! And in case you haven't seen the update in the shop, you should hop on over and take a peek!
