THE IRRESISTIBLE SALTWATER SUMMER OF MY SOUL

It's not even summer, and I'm already having the most glorious summer of my life!

How's that for great logic?!?

A few months ago I finally donned my first pair of Saltwater Sandals! Needless to say, I could go on and on with pinterest love quotes about these babies. And so I wore them in Italy. I wore them at NC. I wore them in DC. And now, finally home, I'm wearing them in the good old Sunshine State.

People keep noticing (and if they don't, I'm sure to point them out!) my incredible saltwater tan lines. Which on the one hand, I worked on, but on the other hand, they came so fast! And the deeper the lines get, the more drastic the contrast, the more I realize what fun I'm having. Since we're all into metaphors these days (thanks tfios!) let's just say that last year, or any other year, I wouldn't have any saltwater tan lines. (Partly because uh, I didn't own Saltwaters! But mostly because, for the first time in forever, I'm really living!) And let me just say, it feels fabulous to be alive.

So here's to the irresistible saltwater summer of my soul! Fingers crossed that the tan lines intensify due to an increase in sweet, sweet summertime pleasures.

PS: I wasn't kidding....

suddenly, it was spring.

KRYN'S RECIPE FOR A FINE SPRING DAY....

-Find a fun song ("In the Sun" seems to be my Spring tune, for obvious reasons!)

-throw on your favorite dress (floral prints do nicely!)

-and don't forget the sandals! (and fresh pedicure too, while you are at it.)

-casually wander into your neighbors yard and take pictures (and only later realize they have a security camera....)

B is for blue

Not much to say about this other than "I LOVE BLUE" and "I WISH IS WAS A MILLIONAIRE!" But isnt' that what every girl says after she makes a mood board with all her retail dreams?

Absolutely!

Have a happy weekend, full of beautiful blue things. I insist!

one, two, three, four, five

Going to Jerusalem

Not really.

Theoretically. Hypothetically. Moving on.

I have a weird habit of naming my clothes. Shocker! Not every piece, but certain things just need names, and by George, I'll give 'em one. I had my circus shorts, my picnic dress, the sausage necklace and so on.

So let me introduce my Jerusalem Sandals....

 They're perfect. They're comfy. They look biblical. Yeah, they are awesome. I loved them so much I didn't even want to take them off when I went to bed. I'm a dork like that. And really, I'm a dork like a lot of things.

 And for the record, I don't wear this skirt every day of my life. Just most. And on those days, I always seem to take photo's. Flowy skirts are inspiring I guess.

Do you have names for certain outfits or pieces of clothing?

PS: No, this is not become a solely based clothing blog. I've just prepared these quick posts since I'm busy.

On my radar:: Ballet Boutique

I'll take one in every color, thank you very much.

I would willingly live my the rest of my life in ballet flats.

Correction: my feet would willingly live the rest of their life in  ballet flats. I'm just guessing I wouldn't fit in one. ( although, a ballet flat shaped house might give the woman who lived in a shoe a run for her money.)

Since I won the fair lottery, (It wasn't a lottery, I worked really hard baking brownies.) I am rich enough to buy a J Crew Italian leather ballet flat. I know I won't, but I still like looking anyhow. If there was a J Crew for cheapies brand, I'd be their biggest customer.

Like any of these? Which are your faves? Have a super sweet day! Xoxo, Kryn

One Star

Tennis Shoes day. First of all, I don't own any. I don't play tennis either. It would be so dumb to buy shoes for a sport I don't play. I would like to play tennis, but my hand eye coordination is way off. So, no tennis shoes for me.

The only pair of shoes I own that are close to tennis shoes are my Converse. They are not Chuck Taylor's, but they are just as cool.




I was first exposed to Converse by my cousins, Brooke and Elise. Thank you for enlightening me. For school one year, they all got Chuck Taylor's. Once I saw them I knew I wanted them. (That was also the year I envied their Sponge Bob tissues.) Anyway, I just got my Converse for my 13th birthday. They are about the most boyish looking thing I own. And, they're fairly girly.

And here is a secret. I don't tie shoes very well. When I was little, my mom bought me shoes that had no laces. I was lace free. It was only about 4 years ago when I actually had to tie my shoes. There were kids in my Sunday school class who could do it wicked fast. I guess that's just not one of my talents. Thankfully, I don't plan on going into a field where shoe tying is required. Converse also have insanely long laces. That does not help those of us who struggle with shoe tying. But I don't really struggle, I'm just not that fast.

As for my fantastic idea, it will have to wait till another day. We got the Jello. But I've been cleaning. And cooking for a pot luck. And Cleaning. And reading. I'm going to the King and I tonight and you can bet your china teapot I'll be wearing my Converse.

Sincerely,
I have tissue issues

PS: It was 6 years ago that I envied Sponge Bob tissues.
