Red


I dyed my hair red. Just like every other brunette on earth in the fall, I put on the gloves, poured the sauce, and poisoned my scalp. I feel pretty good about it.




There is just something about a new hair color that makes me feel alive! Not just normal alive, but alive alive. Like something really cool is going to happen, or I might secretly be a super hero! If I were secretly a super hero, I would be mega angry about it. Like secretly I can fly and I never told anyone about it...not even myself??? What the heck? Maybe that's my super hero name; Mega Angry! Able to leap...to conclusions! It's a little mad, it's sorta upset, NO it's MEGA ANGRY! 




I got a little off topic up there, but please don't call me out on it because you might make me angry. Trust me, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry!

Husband Jeans

That was a completely unintentional blog break, but I am back and my goal is to do a lot more posts! So happy Labor Day. Here are some pictures of me...



I know these are typically referred to as "boyfriend" jeans, but I don't have a boyfriend. I have a husband. I've had one for almost 15 years so I just can't in good conscience call these boyfriend jeans. 

I bought my mom bought that shirt for me when I was in the 10th grade I believe. No, I am not kidding. It's old. It's way old. That shirt is so old that when I told it to act it's age it died. 





I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing that I can still wear that shirt. It means one of two things; I either had big boobs in the 10th grade or I have small boobs now. I would ask my husband, but he is mad that I stole his jeans.

When I Was Arrested, I Was Dressed In Black

Let me clarify...I was not arrested. 




I used to hate brown and black together. It was my least favorite thing in the world and I would criticize anyone who wore it. Now there are still some rules in my mind like no dark brown and black. That still bothers me. I know you are thinking, "But Heather, what shade of brown is too dark? Where do you draw the line?" Well little friend, I don't have a good answer to that because I am pretty wishy washy. I will however tell you that this shade of brown or "cognac" is beautiful with black. If you choose to wear a darker shade that is ok, but don't be surprised if I give you the side eye. 

Not that I got that little diatribe out of the way we can move on.





I also want to say that leopard is a neutral and I will fight anyone who disagrees. Ok, I won't fight you, but I will write you a strongly worded letter. What do you think I want to do, get arrested?

Savannah and Tybee Part One

Well I didn't tell you we were going on vacation this soon, but we did, and now we are back! We headed farther south to one of our favorite places Savannah GA, and Tybee Island! 

We stayed at the famous Thunderbird Inn where they give you Moon Pies and RC Cola upon arrival! 



We checked in and then went straight to the beach!



It was a beautiful day for travel and to see the ocean! I couldn't get enough! We headed back to the city for some food, drinks, and later a little Mexican corn, which I also can't get enough of! 




All in all it was a fantastic first day! I have so much more to share, but I won't overwhelm you  right now! 

Have you ever been to Savannah/Tybee? What did you think?

Summer Lovin'


I am more than ready for summer, and I always have a shopping list a mile long when the seasons change. I wanted to share some of the items on my wish list so far. 





                


1. Pylo Gypsy Denim Bellbottoms in Creedence: I have bellbottoms, but these are high waisted which means I can wear some crop tops and I love that. I am not a "show my whole midriff" kinda gal, so high waisted jeans/pants/skirts make me very happy and give me some  flexibility in my wardrobe! 

2. Alloy Mae Paisley Maxi Dress: Ahh the maxi dress. So cute. So put together. Yet so comfy and easy! You still have to shave your legs in this one though. 

3. Free People Again Dylan Dress: I can't even with this dress. I. Cannot. Even. This is like if the 60's, Bridgett Bardot, and Hawaii got together and had a passionate love affair and had a love child. That would be this dress. I. Cannot. Even. Sexiest dress EVER. 

4. Free People Floral Mesh Lace Dress: Hottie hottie lacy pants! This dress is so cute and easy! I feel like I would wear this to a festival, but in reality I would probably just wear it to a street fair full of food trucks and get ketchup on it within 5 seconds. 

5. Madewell Loup Charmant Como Cropped Shirt: I had a shirt when I was in high school that was very similar to this. I wore it to Kings Island. I got it on sale at Gap I believe. I adored that shirt. I can't remember my own zip code most days, but by golly I can tell you what I wore 17 summers ago...

6. Free People Oliviera Gladiator Sandal: I just really want some taller gladiator sandals. These are so cute, and they are Free People which is always a win in my book. 

Feel free to also follow me on Pinterest to see some of my other faves! I am an avid pinner and I would love to have you follow along!

P.S. I found a dupe (or at least similar style) of the sexiest dress ever for a LOT less on Alloy

Mammy

My momma came to visit me! We ate all the food and drank all the coffee and went all the places! It was wonderful! I needed a little happy in my week. She also took these pictures because she is awesome. 




See my week started with a clogged drain in our bathroom which resulted in at least 3 trips to Home Depot, gross black goo in our floor, and a very defeated Little City Chic household. We finally got it unclogged, but we didn't know it until the next morning. That should have been good news, and it was, but then I realized that our mortgage company had taken out two payments. TWO PAYMENTS. That's not cool. When I called they weren't helpful, but thankfully my bank was and I got the second payment reversed. Talk about a frustrating couple of days. I could have shortened that and just said a black goo covered toilet monster came in and stole all our money, but you probably wouldn't have understood that. And you also might have been terrified. 




My momma came and made things better (as mommas tend to do) and now I am happy again. 


I promise I have a giveaway coming up. I also promise to not take as long to put up a new post next time. That is unless the goo covered toilet monster comes back and steals my computer, or camera, or husband...

Night Moves




Just in case you couldn't tell, these were taken spontaneously at night with my iPhone by the light of my headlight. It was my husband's idea. He's pretty good with stuff like that. Keeps me on my toes with new and innovative ideas. He's like an innovation/idea...factory.... (I wanted to write tree right there for some reason, but it didn't make much sense.)



Do you know what I like? Elephants. They are so big and cool. They have those big ol ears and trunks that are just like, BAM! Yeah! I'm an elephant! Whatcha gonna do about it? But at the same time they are just sweet and they like to dance. 

I also just realized my shirt has that cool elephant guy on it! I told you I like elephants! I don't just blow smoke, or pull legs, or some other 50's sounding phrase.
