Creepers & Mustaches

Creepers & Mustaches

• July 9, 2010

You can't really tell in these shots but I'm sweaty. Really sweaty. So sweaty I'm dripping on my forehead. Deliciously attractive, right? I decided to venture outside despite the heat wave. In a housing development nearby my house I noticed a giant pond surrounded by these reeds and I just knew I had to snap some shots with them. I had an urge to poke a few of them but they were too close to the water and the ground nearby wasn't very solid.

Oh, and let me tell you guys, taking pictures near housing developments is a very very very scary thing. You would think it'd be safe, but no. There was this "older gentlemen" taking a walk in the neighborhood. He saw me park my car and he was walking behind me as I made my way over to the lake. He proceeded to watch me from afar. I thought he was just resting underneath a tree for it's shade...but then I realized he was looking in my direction. I pretended to be setting up my camera for the longest time (I snapped a shot of him - see below). Then he moved along, but then stopped at yet ANOTHER tree and continued to stare. Finally after a few minutes he moved along his way. I sighed a huge breath of relief and then started to pose all silly like for photos. I got lost in my picture taking. But then all of a sudden, I turned around just to take a break and HE WAS COMING AROUND THE POND!!!!! Let me tell you, this isn't a pond you hike around. I freaked out and snatched up my tripod without retracting the legs or removing the camera and walked away as fast as I could with my wedges. I didn't want to wait around to see what he had to say. I jumped in my car and sped away in my wedges. I never drive in wedges but I had no time to change into flats. No time.

So, can we talk about this AMAZING MUSTACHE NECKLACE? Yes, we can. A few months ago I gushed over Ali's mustache necklace that she apparently MADE HERSELF? I had been craving one but reluctant to spend the money for one. Because Ali is such a sweetheart she offered to make one for me! It came in the mail a few weeks ago and I've been wearing it as if I actually have a mustache every day. She named it Marvin and I'm quite head over heels with him. :)

Oh, and my best friend who moved to Texas sent me this lovely skirt! She knows how much I love BCBG. I miss her (if you're reading this, Phebe, get your ass back to NJ ASAP!)
