i can’t believe it’s labor day weekend and summer is slipping away.
sigh.
summertime is my favoritetime. at least in la where its the only time it warm here!

in solidarity with summer and in mourning its passing i’m wearing all white all weekend. 🙂

white dress day one.

i don’t know if i have to tell you this, but LA is not exactly the white dress capitol of the world. in fact, they are rare. no one wears them here. especially not eyeletted and ruffled and swissdotted ones – which happen to be descriptives of all the ones i own. i think they are too sweet and too southern and too clean for LA’s taste. and also, i feel like it needs to be really warm – no, HOT – to slip into a white dress and it just doesn’t really get to white dress temperatures here very often. at least not on the westside. and at least not according to me.

but this weekend, i’m wearing white anyways. because its now or never. summer is fading.

have you been to a rite aid lately? all the halloween candy is out! ugh. is it really time for that already? can’t we wait a little longer? not that michael opposes the proliferation of big bags filled with little bags of candy. we have large bags (much much two large for two people) or peanut butter cups, peanut m&m’s and twix. each bag filled with indivudal packages ready to hand out to small children that knock on your door – and yet, we live in an apartment and no one will be knocking.

hummm

so i’m wearing white all weekend to fight off the approaching fall.

and no, i’m not going to grunge up my white dresses. i’m not wearing them with ankle boots and chunky bangles to make them feel they belong in LA in september. nay, i’ll don them with flowers and pearls.

michael loves summertime too and is joining me in wearing all white all weekend.
he’ll be like p-diddy on a yacht. minus the yacht.

but, no. not really.

michael is distracted from the sadness of summer ending because he is too excited about the beginning of college football season.

this means: orange and blue.
