Everyday when I'm heading to my internship I dread getting dressed. I'm so bored with dressing like a lady! I thought I would love getting dressed this summer because I'm a huge fan of blazers and button ups, but its just really ended up kind of a bummer!

whites and kahkis- blah!

i did really like this outfit though! minus the awkward posing haha

calvin klein shoes, guess jeans, forver 21 tank top and a brown blazer i got super cheap at tj maxx a million years ago.

i think i'd look a lot better if I was allowed to wear these glasses during my stand ups!

i did get to meet charlie crist the other day so i guess its worth it to dress boring! Jeff introduced me and I said I was an intern and that i'd be interviewing him in a year.

He responded "from your lips not mine"

I think he thought i meant he was going to get elected to senate but i just meant I'm going to be a reporter in a year haha.

Freckle Face in the Keys

Went camping with my sisters in the keys this weekend. They keys are really the epitome of summer! hot hot hot and tons of sunshine, but a nice breeze off the ocean to cool you down a bit.

sun makes my freckles pop!

one hundred years of solitude = perfect summer reading

annabel lee

It was many and many a year ago,

In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

By the name of ANNABEL LEE;

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,

In this kingdom by the sea;

But we loved with a love that was more than love-

I and my Annabel Lee;

With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,

In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling

My beautiful Annabel Lee;

So that her highborn kinsman came

And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in a sepulchre

In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,

Went envying her and me-

Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,

In this kingdom by the sea)

That the wind came out of the cloud by night,

Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love

Of those who were older than we-

Of many far wiser than we-

And neither the angels in heaven above,

Nor the demons down under the sea,

Can ever dissever my soul from the soul

Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams

Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes

Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side

Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,

In the sepulchre there by the sea,

In her tomb by the sounding sea.

I realllllllly want to do an Annabel Lee inspired photoshoot!

margaret moth

I was reading Christiane Amanpour's blog and now feel silly for never knowing who maragret moth was!

I became obsessed with her the second i read she changed her name to gipsy moth from wilson, but now only that, she was a bad ass photog who reminds me of robert capa
