feeling #sunkissed outfit of the day

i am so glad it is finally friday! with last week being a short work week, this has felt like the slowest week ever. we’ve had a bit of a cool down in Seattle this week, with temperatures in the low to mid 60s, but i’ve still been dying to wear warm weather clothing. the problem? my office at work is freezing. seriously, they crank the AC even when it’s 65 out. yeesh.

Priddy Lucky Outfit of the Day

The title of this post is a play on words (priddy is the brand of the dress, lucky made this sweater) but honestly, today i’m feeling pretty lucky. i had a skin check with my dermatologist and got the all clear. i noticed some changes on a couple of small moles, and freaked. with all the talk of using SPF and skin cancer lately on the Twitterz, my paranoia got the best of me.

rigby reviews doggie lawn potty patch / hello, rigby!

when my mom told me that a nice lady from doggie lawn wanted to send me something to try out, she seemed so excited for me. i didn’t quite get it. i mean duh, mom, who wouldn’t want to send me cool stuff to try? clearly she’s got me confused with just an average dog. so when this patch of grass showed up for me and mom tried to coerce me onto it, i thought she was crazy. how old does she think i am?
