Working Girl

.....And not in the common "working girl" way. As you can see my job is very glamorous. I wear fluorescent from head to toe, and get mad helmet hair. It pays really really well and I'm only going to be there for another month and a half so I can't really complain. Another sexy added bonus is how hot and sweaty I get.....and that the only part of my body that burns is my nose and chin. So chic. I basically don't wear makeup and wear my hair up everyday and don't shower before work and it's sososo worth it if I can pay for school in the fall (and some new school clothes, gotta have perks right?!). Anyways I've been super exhausted after working 9 hour days, then trying to go to the gym 3 times a week, so thats why theres been no updates, but alas I have a long weekend coming up! Horah! Rest, relaxation, photos! The important things in life? Yes! Anyways more posts soon. Please enjoy me looking sexy in my work outfit. I actually get a lot of honks and waves, apparently this is what men find attractive??!

Mellow my mind

















This outfit is from earlier this week and I honestly can say this dress is one of my favorites. I bought it last summer and it is a nice cotton denim looking fabric. It's strapless but here i put a little tshirt under it. I wear this dress all the time, in the winter with tights and boots and a cardigan or shirt underneath. When it's hot out it's perfect strapless with some wedges or cute flats. I just got the anchor necklace from modcloth and I love it, nautical themed necklaces make me happy! This outfit is really comfortable and I always feel really great in it, it was more expensive than most of my dresses but i've defintly gotten lots of wear out of it. This was just after I had gone on a nice long walk and picked some lilacs from a neighbors flower bush. Lilac's are by far my favorite flower, they smell amazing. That smell always reminds me of being a kid, when it started getting really nice out and going outside. I looove it. I really hope this weather keeps up! I find out when my next surgery is on friday hopefully. AND I should be back to work next week, and working out!! YAY I am quite happy :):)

New, you're new



Outfit: Blue dress from forever XXI, studded flats from winners
Greetings from alberta!! Where the weather it would appear has smartened up (ha!!) and I am healing enough to get all dressed up!! I am feeling pretty good, and have a doctors appointment tomorrow to see what my surgeon says and then another one on friday to see when they're going to redo (properly) my stent. So hopefully this all goes well! I wore this last friday and not ten minutes after i took these photos it started pouring rain....it eventually cleared up again though. I went out to the lake where my family has a trailor and hung out there, it was beautiful and very hot! I had a really good weekend :) hope everyone else did as well

Health Update







Outfit: silk flower corset top- forever XXI, jeans-mavi, blazer-silence & noise (urban outfitters)



These lovely photos are from an outfit shoot I did over a month ago now, so from before my surgery. I tried uploading them MULTIPLE times, but for some reason they wouldn't work....until now :). I havn't done any outfit shoots, or any sort of photo work since my surgery because 1) I havn't been up to it physically 2) my body feels different, Im so used to being active and working out and playing soccer multiple times a week, so healing has been a difficult process 3) the weather is shit, theres only been like 5 nice days in the past 3 weeks!! But soon I promise! There will be pictures!


So it's been just over 3 weeks since my surgery and I must say I feel about 2872498 times better! I can walk for a long time, am able to get dressed (now if only the weather would cooperate), I even drove for the first time since the surgery yesterday. My wrist where they put a catheter in got swollen at the end of last week which was ridiculously painful! But thankfully it's feeling a lot better now. OH and I'm sleeping in my own bedroom again! It is delightful, I missed it soo much. I thought I would have been doing more blogging during these past weeks because of all the free time I had, but honestly I didn't feel like doing much of anything. It's been rough, all I've wanted to do is feel better and be healthy and be able to go to work and work out again.




I am getting really worried about my cash situation, I need $5000 still for school. All the money I saved to go to New York for my 21st birthday in august is now going towards paying for school and I feel defeated. I was really really looking forward to that trip, and now I dont get any sort of vacation this year. It's already midjune and I havn't done much of anything, which sucks. BUT I am getting healthy and feeling good which is the number 1 thing on my list to focus on! My scar is healing quite beautifully as well, which makes me happy!!
