OotD: Bleach

Just a pic spam post today.  Not much really happened.  Ran a few errands, went to dinner with the parents, and got coffee with friends.  Le boyfriend did buy two pairs of replacement sunglasses today.  Hopefully these last longer than his last pair!

 If you have some time, give me some love on my Lookbook.  ;)

OotD: Cosmic Love

I think I've found my new favorite piece of clothing!  The Galaxy Purple Swimsuit from Black Milk Clothing is absolute perfection.  I don't think I've ever had a onepiece bathing suit fit so perfectly.  And it actually covers my ass!

Seriously - if there's one thing I can't stand about bathing suits, it's when they cut across my ass in a funny place and make me look like I have 4 butt-cheeks.  I haaaaaaaate high-cut suits.  But this was PERFECT.  Next time I wear it I'll have to get some pics of the back.

Estel was determined to get in the picture, so I decided to troll him a little.

I actually started the day off with a pink and purple plaid shirt thrown over it, but the weather dropped as the day went on.  Plus, I like it better with the black crop hoodie anyway.

 Here's what it looks like without anything covering it:

Some of you may have noticed that I've been wearing the La Lune Pendant pretty consistently lately.  I'm a little obsessed with it.  Granted, I love all the jewelry I got from Night Venus, but this piece has become like an extension of me.  It's been a while since I've had a connection to a piece of jewelry like this.  It's quite lovely.

It was a pretty great day as well.  We had some delicious vegan food from a local cafe for lunch.  My black bean and guacamole burger was soooooo good!  I wish I had gotten two.  We puttered around the house for a while after that... at least until it was time to meet our friends at IHOP.  That was the first time in a long time that we had gotten that many of us together all at once.  It was a blast!

Jeanette brought us some lovely souvenirs from her trip to Columbus.  I believe the one I chose was especially poignant given what's currently going on in my life.

We ended the night by all going to my other friends' house for coffee.  They were all watching a DVD of Frozen by the time we got there.  Of course, since their son had already seen it a bazillion consecutive times for the past couple days, it was really the adults who were invested in the movie.  I have to say I really enjoyed it.  And Olaf was a lot less annoying than I assumed he'd be given his character design.  I was bracing myself for a Jar-Jar Binks level of stupidity.  Thank god it did not deliver, haha.  But really, the movie was super cute.  I really liked the characters and loved the whole sisterly love theme.  I was a little disappointed by the other songs though.  They weren't quite on the level of "Let it go" but they were still nice.  And the animation was gorgeous!  I'd like to watch it again sometime without a hyper child trying to teach me ABCs.  :P

Hard Candy

The boyfriend and I watched Hard Candy last night.  He had found a Cracked article about how "if you like this movie, here is the better alternative."  This was supposed to be the better alternative to Juno.  We both felt really let down by this assessment.  It was the kind of movie that left you hollow at the end, with barely enough care to utter "meh".  Plain and simple, it was nothing more than "revenge porn".  But even then, it didn't have quite the right feel.  I told my boyfriend that it felt like a White Knight wrote this and was living vicariously through the teenage girl character.  In fact, as I was brushing my teeth last night I made him look up the writer and see if it was a dude.  It totally was.  White Knight wank - I nailed it.

*SPOILERS AHEAD*

Insta-Privacy?

So someone on tumblr shared a photo from instagram just now.  Normally when I see things like this, I click the link for the instagram account and like the photo there as a courtesy.  I did so, but the heart wouldn't stay red.  I clicked the user name so I could see some other photos and - surprise! - it was a private account.  Um, isn't that a bit awkward?  I mean, obviously she's OK with sharing the photo since it's her account and all... but a lot of instagram users are connected via their facebook and use their real names, which they might not have on their tumblr.  I wonder if everyone realizes that by sharing the photo, it allows others to track it back to your instagram (even if they can't see beyond the "this user is private" page).  It just seems a bit weird to me.
